Okinawa 1,261 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 A study has shown that the more basic and generic English lyrics a song has, the more successful the song becomes (like "for", "dancefloor", "more"). That is because in overseas countries where English is not native, the people can understand it easier. The lyrics than become easy and commonly repeated with basic vocabulary (like you can understand all the lyrics after four years of English lessons). Nowadays they are rarely songs with sophisticated lyrics (that require a more advanced level of English) on the charts. Actually, if you write a song in advanced English with rare vocabulary, your chances become lower to become successful, so... the most common words are chosen that everybody has heard endless times. I think Chromatica has a low level of lyrics (it has a beginner level of lyrics and is less sophisticated because Lady Gaga wants to be successful and high chart position rather than deep ,meaningful lyrics. ~We are Reel Cool~ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a ridiculous thing to say IMO. I'm seeing what some of you are saying and I sort of agree. Alot of gaga's earlier music had intentional attitude/fire, these songs aren't supposed to have that.

There are some lines that I actually quite enjoy, replay is fantastic. Overall, when I listen to the songs all I hear is lyrical "spice". I actually quite like some of the narratives she attacks in the songs, but I feel as if the final product isn't as on point as her earlier work. 1 minute ago, HeavyPunkLover said: This should be a Standard Answer for Chormatica Slander What I wrote was not chromatica slander!

Daylight Jokers 14,958 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 When I was young, I prayed for lightning My mother said it would come and find me I found myself without a prayer I lost my love and no one cared When I was young, I prayed for lightning I heard one sine from above Then the signal split in two The sound created stars like me and you Before there was love, there was silence I heard one sine And it healed my heart I need you to listen to me, please believe me I'm completely lonely, please don't judge me When your tears are falling, I'll catch them as they fall I need you to listen to me, please don't leave me I'm not perfect yet, but I'll keep trying When your tears are falling, I'll catch them as they fall 'Cause inside, we are really made the same In life, waiting's just a stupid game Lift me up, give me a start 'Cause I've been flying with some broken arms Lift me up, just a small nudge And I'll be flying like a thousand doves Could you pull me out of this alive? Where's my body? I'm stuck in my mind I'm tired of screaming at the top of my lungs Oh my mother, I'm in the hole, I'm falling down Every single day, yeah, I dig a grave Then I sit inside it, wondering if I'll behave It’s a game I play, and I hate to say You're the worst thing and the best thing that's happened to me I don't know what to do, you don't know what to say The scars on my mind are on replay, The monster inside you is torturing me The scars on my mind are on replay I didn't ask for the daylight 'Cause I was born for the night, and it changed my life I knew the hurt wouldn't be small You said you'd love me forever, but you don't call Turnin' up emotional faders Keep repeating self-hating phrases I have heard enough of these voices Almost like I have no choice This is biological stasis My mood's shifting to manic places Wish I laughed and kept the good friendships Watch life, here I go again Keep my dolls inside diamond boxes Save 'em 'til I know I'm gon' drop this Front I've built around my oasis Paradise is in my hands Holdin' on so tight to this status It's not real, but I'll try to grab it Keep myself in beautiful places Paradise is in my hands We could be lovers, even just tonight We could be anything you want We could be jokers, brought to the daylight We could break all of our stigma I'll be your enigma Feelin' something that I can't explain Think it's a wound I still entertain I'd do anything to numb the flame I guess I'm just on fire these days I can't see straight, I can't see me There's too much hurt caught in between Wish I could be what I know I am This moment's hijacked my plans You love the paparazzi, love the fame Even though you know it causes me pain I feel like I'm in a prison hell Stick my hands through the steel bars and yell ---- Just cuz she didn't use too much of the thesaurus doesn't mean her lyrics are bad.

mister max 18,480 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 These are my fave lyrics from chromatica currently, not only do they have a beautiful meaning, they also sound amazing on the track Turnin' up emotional faders Keep repeating self-hating phrases I have heard enough of these voices Almost like I have no choice This is biological stasis My mood's shifting to manic places Wish I laughed and kept the good friendships Watch life, here I go again Keep my dolls inside diamond boxes Save 'em 'til I know I'm gon' drop this Front I've built around my oasis Paradise is in my hands Holdin' on so tight to this status It's not real, but I'll try to grab it Keep myself in beautiful places Paradise is in my hands Buy ARTPOP on itunes or smth?

Hybrid AT 78 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 12 minutes ago, LadyGagasGodSon said: Also body's moving like sculpture is easily one of the more explicit references to house music and voguing as dance, that is, dancing by way of posing... Or at least that's how I saw it right away Also, I take it as the music breathing life into these sculptures and they begin to move like real people. Babylon the song as a whole and its motif is genius. "I was protected by the monks of Azarath, I was raised by my friends. They are my family, this is my home and you are not welcome here."
