Blackout19 9,757 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 What are your unpopular opinions about the album Born This Way? Mine: - the standard album cover is amazing - Born This Way is Gaga's best music video - Judas is one of Gaga's best songs ever - Heavy Metal Lover & Scheisse should have been singles - Bad Kids is underrated - Born This Way Ball is Gaga best tour Marilyn Monroe is my best friend. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 91,002 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I don't know how popular this opinion is but I wish it was less produced, if that makes sense. I think most of the songs could do without some layers of pure noise. Every album after BTW (including ARTPOP) has a more polished production. If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas 22,355 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Fernando Garibay's remix of Fashion Of His Love is better than the original version and truly underrated 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitoburrrito 608 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I mostly like the production on BTW but I do think it could have been a bit more polished. When I listen to the instrumentals, I can appreciate the music a bit more, but it's hard to pick up on some of the music on the final mixes on the album. The original album cover grew on me except I still hate the font. I think she could have done a delayed release for the deluxe edition, alongside the Remix album for Q4 of 2011. She could have released more singles that way. For singles, I think she could have done: Born This Way, Marry the Night, Judas as a promotional single, Edge of Glory, You and I, and then The Queen and Fashion of His Love remix as singles for the deluxe edition. I still think Bad Kids is cringe and could have been a deluxe song or just left off entirely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head Empty 23,799 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) Americano is one of her best songs and by far the most underrated track of her discography. Edited October 23, 2023 by Why am I on GGD 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M i K E Y 6,652 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 - Highway Unicorn is underrated. (The title alone fascinates me) - I like the standard cover but I don’t know the idea of the deluxe version being a zoomed version of her face when they had plenty of great pics from the shoot - I wish it gets remastered someday to have a clearer sound. At times the production is very noisy and swallows parts of the instrumental and harmonies imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NATAH 38,021 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 americano is great, i was shocked to find out the fanbase dislikes it mother, what must i do? 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schizophonic 6,998 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Black Jesus should have been on standard and is underrated 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS77 1,647 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Electric Chapel is top 3 on the album The Queen particularly the outro, is one of the most magical moments in her discography While the production can be noisy at times, to this day, it is the most intricate. Still has yet to be topped. Highway Unicorn's organ outro is goosebumps inducing 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
asfittingasmcqueen 1,820 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 - Americano is an absolute banger - Electric Chapel is criminally underrated. It's probably one of the best produced songs in this record and the lyrics are some of her best overall. - As risky as it was, making Judas a single was the correct choice. It set a standard that Gaga wasn't afraid of making bold decisions in her music career and has become one of her most popular songs between younger generations - As chaotic as it is, it is her most cohesive album 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely not a common release strategy but I think it could have worked for BTW.  Funny story about Emancipation of Mimi, I asked for that for Christmas when I was 9 years old, and specified that I NEEDED the Ultra Platinum edition. How my parents didn't know I was gay is beyond me Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
