Gracious Gaga 17,163 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I will start off by saying that on May 29th, 2020 Lady Gaga blessed the world with her 6th studio album CHROMATICA. I am SO GRATEFUL for this album. WE DID NOT DESERVE IT. And we still dont!!! But yet, we have it. This thread is IN NO WAY INTENDED to disrespect the album and the work put into it. This is not a "CHROMATICA NEEDS TO CHANGE" thread- its a IF I COULD change it, here's what I'd do With any album, put out by any musician, there will always be SOME things a listener would tweak to fit their PERSONAL preferences when it comes to music! that is all this is. So lets respect everyones changes and if you don't think the album needs any changes, that is okay too! the album is GREAT already So here we go. & I will warn you, I am going to be very BLUNT in my opinions. so, that being said... *TRIGGER WARNING* I am making significant and potentially controversial changes- so be prepared. 1. Chromatica I 2. Alice 3. Enigma 4. Rain On Me (Ft. Ariana Grande) 5. Free Woman (get rid of those "be free!" 's ) 6. Love Me Right (w/ different verses, stronger lyrics & pre-chorus. the chorus is great, it deserves to be on the album!! with a proper solid ending, rather than a fade out, for consistency w the rest of the album ) 7. Chromatica II 8. 911 (this song is amazing. only thing I'd do to enhance it, is give it a proper bridge w/ new lyrics n all ) 9. Plastic Doll (I like this concept and the chorus is great, but lyrics sound a little immature so it needs some rewriting in the verses, maybe some different production too, to make it sound a little more edgy) 10. Sour Candy (Solo version NO BLACKPINK the melody in the first verse should just sound like Gaga's verse in the BP version- but w different lyrics, of course. and get rid of that Swish Swish bish sounding sample!!!!!! come on, its 2020!!!!!!) *and I know it DOESN'T sample ANY other song- but that synth line sounds very similar to other songs, swish swish being one of them 11. Stupid Love 12. Replay 13. Chromatica III 14. Sine From Above (SOLO NO SIR. ELTON JOHN or if it is a collab, I'd like to hear a voice that is not so deep & aged & bold. Something a bit soft & more majestic, maybe like The Weeknd kind of voice, or Harry Styles even idk. and a more orchestral-electro style production) 15. 1000 Doves (again, maybe some edgier production ) 16. Babylon Bonus Tracks: 17. Fun Tonight (PIANO VERSION!!! COME ON THIS SONG IS SUPPOSE TO BE A BALLAD, NOT A FUN DANCE SONG I wanna CRY TO THIS SONG ) 18. 1000 Doves (Piano Demo) SINGLES 1. Enigma (because conceptually/thematically and sonically it makes sense and is most representative of the whole album) 2. Rain on Me 3. Free Woman 4. Alice 5. (if we make it this far) Stupid Love or Sine From Above I'd love 911 & Replay to get the spotlight they deserve, however, it feel the GP wouldn't be able to keep up w them, they're too artistic !!! So there you have it! Spoiler MEGA TRIGGER WARNING!!!!!!! *potentially the most controversial of everything I've said thus far. continue if you dare. Spoiler release date: April 10th, 2016 So now its your turn. what, if any, controversial changes would you make on Chromatica? ♥ Kindness Police.

DC 25,164 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I would make Stupid Love be the opening song instead of Alice. It wouldn’t exactly fit as well, but I just love the song so much that I would want to hear it every time I give the album a listen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brecht 7 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 - Rework Stupid Love's lyrics and make it more 90s than 80s to fit in the first act better. - Mix Free Woman demo with the original. - Make most songs at least 30 seconds longer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putang Ina Mo 2,141 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Longer songs (especially Sour Candy) Maybe Sour Candy without BLACKPINK Fun Tonight to become a single Put "I want to be be be free free free forever" part back on Free Woman Put Love Me Right into the main album (or at least in streaming services) my username says it all 🇵🇭 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHALLOW 16,384 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I'd get rid of SFA,1000 doves,Fun Tonight and Plastic Doll(even tho it has grown on me). They don't fit the vibe for me. Also Chromatica 1 and 3 can go, Chromatica 2 should be incorporated into 911. I'd add Love me right and all the other songs they said they are gonna release. I'd tweak some songs to make them feel more explosive and like they actually have a chorus. I'd totally re-do Babylon's instrumentals. I love the song but the instrumental doesn't fit at all imo. Also i think the album should've been released last year and i don't think that just cause we have corona now. Singles: Alice SC( promo) ROM Enigma (but make it more radio friendly) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

whore 11,447 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 - Replace "Free Woman" with the demo, as not only does it fit better production-wise, but the one we got sounds very stale and cut short. -Either make "Sour Candy" longer or take BLACKPINK off of it. Nothing against them but it sounds like BLACKPINK feat. Lady Gaga. Also it does not have the right to be two and a half minutes long - Overall, have most of the songs extended. They all feel like radio edits, and many of the songs don't even have bridges. - Move "Love Me Right" to the standard tracklist. And you're right, maybe include another piano version for the bonus tracks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HausOfAntonio 8,021 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Probably not controversial but I’d like for songs to be 30 seconds to 1 minute longer in length, just so she’d have more breathing space to let them develop to the potential they have. Imagine a version of 911 with a great bridge omg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
