LG7, Joker 2, and David Bowie Connection

I posted this in the "Gaga in studio" thread, but @Schizophonic suggested I make it its own separate thread, so here we go :vegas:

 

Ok I have a wild ass theory, but stick with me...

The outfits she wore in the posts last week resembled David Bowie's Thin White Duke persona. The fact that the photos were in black and white also matches the Thin White Duke aesthetics. From Wikipedia, "the Duke was a hollow man who sang songs of romance with an agonised intensity while feeling nothing, 'dry ice masquerading as fire'". Maybe the black heart emoji is a hint? 🖤

Bowie also described that persona as an "ogre", hence the ogre emoji. 👹

Now the alien emoji from her latest post? The Thin White Duke is a persona from Bowie's Station to Station album, which took inspiration from Bowie's film The Man Who Fell to Earth, where he plays an alien named Thomas Jerome Newton 👽

I'm thinking that Gaga is doing something similar with Joker 2. Maybe filming that movie—which she called a very introspective time for herself—influenced her to make an album somewhat inspired by it. Of course it's not a "Harley" album, but similar to how the Thin White Duke & Thomas Newton/The Man Who Fell to Earth influenced Bowie's Station to Station era, maybe Harley/Joker 2 influenced LG7 :firega:

Ok that's all :gayhat:

Thanks honey, like I said… I find that theory highly interesting and logic.

I‘m pretty sure she kind of did the same with Joanne/ASIB and TheCure/Ally.

 

A lot people were really surprised by her talent on AStar and it was almost as if she prepared something in advance for the new audience to enjoy…

jk I actually really think you raised an interesting theory tbh. I like the idea of her personifying something in this transitional period where she is working on projects that can bleed into each other inspiration wise. Love IT!

Love this but it's all dependent on if Gaga is actually using Emojis to convey the era. She did with Chromatica but not until after the era had started I believe...

I love a concept album so here's hoping she's thinking in this kind of way :excited2:

I've always wanted a proper concept album from Gaga, she'd ****ing kill it

Does anyone think global warming is a good thing? I love Lady Gaga. I think she's a really interesting artist.

The most sane concept I read on this site in a long time. It all makes sense

Let us hope that if Gaga is channeling Thin White Duke, it results in an album even half as good as Station to Station. It is a very dark and funky sound that I could totally see her nailing and will mean she is diving into uncharted territory.

The problem was, she had a little black book and my name was written on every page

the ones in purple she had sunglasses in a already dark studio and hand on mouth...

Yeah and when the song hits the 7:40 mark, I start getting serious electric chapel vibes with a bit more funk. The more I listen to this album, the more I am convinced that Gaga could body something like this.

That's what I'm screaming! But I feel like she changes too much across the span of an era to stick to it. She kinda had a few things going during ARTPOP like the goddess of love and such which I thoroughly enjoyed

Black heart = The Black Duchess? Would that be a problematic title?

if we stay with bowie, i think she refers to a cold heart and not a black one
