LandonM170 686 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I think the original album is so much better but it makes sense as I have always loved the original so much. The songs are good but on most of them I would rather listen to the original. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tylerjs 5,681 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Been thinking of this a lot too, and to be honest I think part of the intention was to make it “simple” enough to be broken apart and remixed into oblivion. Basically like a complete album in itself but also kind of the idea with them releasing the individual parts of the album cover: it was made with the intention of being remixed and restyled over and over almost as if to encourage people to tell their stories through hers. Chromatica isn’t meant to be something super off-the-cusp, and because of that I think it holds a lot more value than some realize at first. Without the original, you don’t have DOC—and I think that’s kind of the point. Producers are going to remix that album for years to come and her building it the way she did makes that a lot more accessible to a lot more artists. 🇨🇺🇧🇸 monica from rhoslc kinda had a point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gothicdream 39,532 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I've always loved original Chromatica, but DOC gave me new appreciation for it, too! Some of the songs have taken on new meanings for me with the remix, certain lyrics stand out in a different way, etc. I also think it's interesting that my ranking of favorite songs is almost totally different between the versions. Some of my least faves on original Chromatica are my favorites on DOC, and vice versa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's important to remember that Chromatica was Gaga's way of finding the sound (sine) that would heal her enough to dance again, thus the album places a major focus on the music rather than the lyrics/choruses like her earlier work. It's sort of a rediscovery of sorts, and listening to it with that in mind really puts it into perspective **** good art Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BARKDANGER 855 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 While I still think the original Chromatica songs are superior, I am happy to have a companion remix album. DOC reminded me how good Chromatica was. I somewhat lost aspect of Chromatica throughout 2020 because of Covid, but seeing that Gaga and her team and the other artists on DOC worked hard to deliver a good remix album unlike she has ever released before, reminded me how much effort Gaga put into the album and era… despite what us LM thought about how we perceived Gaga abandoned the album. I am sure now…that the closer we get to the tour, Gaga will continue to release content and promote the era. “I’m on the edge of glory…” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
