A Very Gaga Holida 21,235 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I don't expect an AOTY win because of The Fame Monster and A Star Is Born, but I don't think it's impossible at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanna keep your hopes up, good for you. But don’t spread negativity when your expectations don’t become reality. Or when somebody simply disagrees with you. Lol. My original post is super positive and excited about the possibility (not the certainty) or L4S winning. The people who disagree with me are the ones spreading “negativity”, literally being negative about the chances and also stating outright that they don’t think the album is very good and not AOTY material. These comments are the definition of negative, and also just opinions not “actual points”. Leave it to someone named “Karen” to nonsensically accuse me of “spreading negativity” against people I don’t agree with, when people are spreading negativity on my positive and optimistic post that they don’t agree with. Such a Karen, dragging me for not sharing your opinion, by saying I shouldn’t drag others for not sharing their opinion. Make it make sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas 24,455 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I hope they'll win but I also think a cover album doesn't deserve to win and that a lot of academy voters will think the same way? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke78619 22,960 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Im expecting a win, but not for album of the year. When TFM and ASIB didn’t get it, I feel it’s gonna be harder for an album of covers to get it over an original piece Don’t try to convince me otherwise please I didn’t even get my hopes up about an Oscar nom so I weren’t massively shocked or disappointed when she was snubbed, which is far better (trust me, I’ve lived through the Chromatica Clown thread ) However, this is still a nice little investigation the OP has done, made me think that the album has a sliiiiiightly better chance at winning than I initially thought insta: good_lukeing | I have nothing else to promote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer 39 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 calling L4S, or any jazz album constructed around the works of a past composer, as a cover album is the most laughable take ever, you all stretch to any reason to discredit your girls work!! sit down and shut up!

Okay firstly, It’s so sad that the only thing you do is laugh at my name, which already sets the standard of this conversation really low. So lemme adapt to you and continue. Secondly, people pointed to you, that the chances of Gaga and Tony’s album winning are low, and that other fandoms would eat Gaga alive, and it wouldn’t look good for the academy overall. They also pointed out that the competition is high this year. It that negativity? I don’t think so. But you know what is? Telling people to stop being ignorant and looking through their own perspective, which you clearly did. And also laughing at their nicknames. Pretty childish if you ask me. That’s all I have to say about this whole situation. I am not going to continue this pointless conversation. I'm so used to giving, and now I get to receive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I think a lot of y’all need to reign your expectations WAY in here or else you’re gonna have another day like Oscar nominations day and nobody wants to live through that mess again That's not comparable at all, our expectations for the Oscars were more than valid since she was the only actress to get a nomination in every other award. chaeri pls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromaticainmyhead 6,358 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 People forget that Gaga has said since the beginning of her career that she's been singing Jazz since she was 13. Jazz is as much a part of Gaga as is Pop. And Gaga winning AOTY for an album of Jazz standards accompanied with one of her greatest inspiration in life and friend Tony is just as Gaga is it would be Gaga winning for a pop album. People wouldn't be so confused with it if it was an album collab that is pop but with Elton John for example just because Elton is nearer to her pop genre than Tony. But both Tony and Elton, Jazz and pop are incredibly close to her artistically and personally. It shows in a very honest way of what Gaga stands for and where she is coming from, what her range is. I would love to see her receiving recognition for that. fan-tas-tique, chic, freak, slaaaay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because it’s what you believe doesn’t mean they aren’t negative. And I responded to various people in the manner with which they addressed me.you are the one who came into this conversation with insults. Happy you’ve got the sense to leave the conversation since your contribution is just negative and pointless. Bye Felicia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsemanche 92,074 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 The only reason it might win (and the only reason it got nominated to begin with) is because it's Tony's last album. Let's not pretend the album was huge or or groundbreaking or impactful or that it deserves to be titled AOTY because it simply doesn't, whether you love the album or hate it. Imo it should only win the traditional vocal pop album category and that's it. Nominating it for other categories + nominating I Get a Kick Out of You for a bunch of categories makes no sense either besides paying tribute to Tony, ESPECIALLY the music video category. I think it would be much more respectable to give Gaga the stage for the tribute performance and have a montage or something prepared during the ceremony to celebrate Tony's career than just nominate him and Gaga in the most random categories.

memomemome 1,478 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 The reason it may have an edge, is because of the split votes. And L4S may benefit from it. while pop /alternative may be split between billie, olivia, taylor. Rnb/hip hop split between jon batiste, her, doja, kanye and lil nas. If jazz probably leaning to gaga/tony. But one to watch out is country, cause they probably still leaning towards taylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
