It was my least favorite on the album on first listen and has been the one that has had the toughest time growing on me but I do love it now and understand the message a lot clearer when she talked about it.

She’s not a big fan of ARTPOP I see. Kinda hurts cause when the album came out it was everything I ever wanted. Now it seems like it’s the least favorite record and seems like she wants to forget about it.

However it makes sense now. The record, which I love, seemed like many ideas and sounds all cramped into one album. It wasn’t cohesive. So I see what she means there. Crazy how the attitude of not only the artist but the producers can affect the record as a whole. 
 

i find ARTPOP to be cohesive if u remove Gypsy and Dope 

personally, I can replay (hehe) ARTPOP over and over unlike her other albums

Her saying that she had difficulty working on ARTPOP doesn't imply that she dislikes the album.

[Gracious Gaga 17,163]

I wish they just cut out the music/mixes and give us the interview w/o these interruptions lol 

[Reginald 13,681]

The way LMs spent 7 years begging for ARTPOP Act II, or an album referred to as "ARTPOP's little sister," and are now trashing it. We got exactly what we wanted  don't act new, y'all 

[ARTGOD 3,266]

Of course working on ARTPOP was hard, making a masterpiece is no walk in the park .

And guys, please remember that artists always say how their newest record is their most personal and their best and pick apart what they didn’t like about their previous work.

I sure hope not. Replay deserves to be a single

This is going to be out of order, so forgive me on that. 

- Gaga absolutely loves Replay, and was obsessed with BURNS' production on it.

- At the beginning of the episode, Gaga said "We all know I love a good vogue."

- Gaga explains that just because someone makes a better melody than her own, it doesn't mean that the other person who wrote the melody was bad, just to be in favor of her melody in the first place.

- Gaga, and BURNS talked about an old demo of Sour Candy, and how it came along much later in the writing process whereas Stupid Love was done two, and a half years before that.

- She made music for Chromatica, in the dark, because of her depression, and slowly came back to life while making it.

- She had a hard time making ARTPOP with the producers because they weren't willing to work with each other, or with her. They were too rigid for her.

- Next week's special guest, for episode 3, is "someone very near, and dear to me who is also on the record", with LM's speculating that it's either Ariana, or Elton.

- BURNS said that the reason why Chromatica is so cohesive is because Gaga allowed the producers, and writers into her life.

- Gaga said that she feels like something dies every time she puts out an album, whether it's something, or somebody. She also said that something died inside of her that no longer served her, and it felt like an exorcism.

- Gaga believes Sour Candy is a stroke of genius. She described it as dance-pop with K-Pop influence.

- BURNS, and BloodPop wanted Chromatica to be timeless.

- Gaga did the Sour Candy rap over the original track.

- Gaga mentioned that at 19, she started out in the music business, and wrote music for other artists, and "tons of different producers". She also said that the producers wanted her to work on a track, or two, and leave the room, so she just wrote for those tracks, and then left too.

- Gaga said the Chromatica producers were egoless, and were willing to work with her, and said that it wasn't a "This track is mine, don't touch it" situation.

- BURNS would make stuff "on the fly", and look around to ask if anyone liked what he was making while BloodPop would change around some things if needed.

- Gaga said that people love Replay, and said it was most specifically about what it's like to have posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and BURNS said she went through a lot of pain making it.

- Gaga asked BURNS what it was like seeing her have a panic attack, or trauma response, and have to leave, and take medicine, and how different it made him feel about Chromatica. He said it made him have a real understanding of what it was all like for her. The songwriting was like part therapy to her, and it made BURNS said he realized how important it was to get Chromatica right for her.

- BURNS said that Gaga wasn't afraid to show her bravery to him.

- Gaga trusted everything that BURNS, and BloodPop made on Chromatica.

- Gaga asked BURNS if he had a favorite memory of Chromatica, with or without her. He said that the album was at his height of his musical experience, and he said he enjoyed the team of other producers, and writers working with Gaga on the album.

- She said she had to relinquish some semblance of control when it came to the stories she was telling about her life, and engage with her producers on how she could tell those stories in a different way.

- One of BURNS' fondest memories was playing Gaga his version of Rain On Me, and he said it was their first time in the studio together, and Gaga said she cried when it was finished.

(Still a work in progress, so stay tuned as I find out more)

Thank you for doing this!!  I didn’t have a chance to listen yet but I was curious what was said!  This was perfect!
