Oyster 2,458 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 No, the whole point of Chromatica is to be a tribute to 90's house and dance pop. It's like going to the roots of the era that gave her her success. It really is a tribute and a celebration of that sound mixed with some modern sound. Chromatica isn't revolutionary because that's not the point. It's like future nostalgia, a tribute to a certain sound. That was the whole point and why Gaga made a 90's house playlist before the album dropped and used diana ross samples, etc. Chromatica should be treated as a tribute album in a way.

ShayCristoforo 10,560 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 tbh ALL of her albums take her raw emotions and filter them into pop songs. Of course Gaga has contracts, but she genuinely cares about this artistic pop process. She's stated it countless times. Personally, I think she's just learned to live a more balanced, meaningful life. With a focus on mental health, versatility and advocacy, while still maintaining a relationship with pop music and its artistic process. Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time.

Mother of Puppies 35,863 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I still think Chromatica is her best album. Which makes it even worse that Covid stopped proper promotion and the tour.... oh well THEY CALL ME LADY MOP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kattys 4,319 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I don't understand how people can say that Chromatica is not so personal to her, when those lyrics exist: 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 Turning 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 too manic places Wish I laughed and kept the good friendships Watch life, here I go again Keep my dolls inside diamond boxes Save them 'til I know I'm gon' drop this Front I've built me around my oasis Paradise is in my hand Holding 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 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 This is my dancefloor I fought for Ain't hard, that's what I'm livin' for 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 Lift me up, give me a start 'Cause I've been flying with some broken arms Why is she crying, what's the price tag? Who's that girl, Malibu Gaga? I lost my love and no one cared When I was young, I prayed for lightning Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djBuffoon 12,030 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Whatever was the impulse for her to make the album, it is a great, cohesive piece. The lyrics and melodies are all super connected and resonant, and it doesn't feel like it's lacking of purpose. If she was going to make an electronic-pop album, this one is as good as I could ask for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a painful album for her to complete. The lyrics alone can tell you all the struggles she is going through. Every song encapsulates some pain she has. He doesn't force her. He just gave Lady Gaga encouragement because Lady Gaga was desperate. Gagaaaaaa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy 10,846 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Nah I just think she’s not stalking her sanity on her albums anymore. She’s got more in her life now so she might give a TON to the work but it isn’t the life or death situation she used to make art out to be. It’s therapy now, not the only thing keeping her tethered to earth lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smother Em Eh 7,027 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 She was probably pressured but I don’t think she was “forced”. We needed more pop music and stuff especially after Joanne so it was a good move on her part. I personally think Chromatica could have been better but it’s still a solid pop record.
