Controversiaga 9,379 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) Here is the average track length for the songs on solo studio Gaga albums. As you can see, there was an increase in length from Fame to FM, and Peaked with BTW, and then a steady decline since. Of course, Gaga is not alone in shortening the lengths of her songs, as these days it is not abnormal to see a song length be as short as 1:30. What do you expect with LG7? Idk if the pic is working but The Fame - 3:36 TFM - 4:17 BTW - 4:20 AP - 3:57 J - 3:27 C - 3:09 Edited February 16 by Controversiaga Pronounced like “Balenciaga” . Emphasis on the “Ga” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson123 35,881 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) How fitting Born This Way average length is 4:20 and she called the lead single “the marijuana to the heroine of the album”. I’m hoping the average length is around 4 mins. I enjoy Chromatica even if it’s “short” but still here for songs to really take their time as long as it feels like they need it. Marry The Night, Dance In The Dark, Electric Chapel, Bloody Mary, Heavy Metal Lover etc. all of these songs have incredible instrumentals and it’s such a pleasure to hear these. I have a feeling we’re gonna have at least one song over 5 minutes in some type of epic The Edge of Glory / The Queen structure. So excited.

Lucas 24,314 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I hope for 3:30 minimum. I need verse/chorus/verse/chorus/bridge/chorus/chorus... If she's doing rock as all signs point to so far, we need sick guitar solos and stuff... so the longer the better 1 1 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTPOPSYCHOLOGY 6,239 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I def think there’s going to be 2-3 5+ minute songs with instrumentation/outros given the vibe she’s (assumingly) going for … I’d love a Pink Floyd vibe for a song or two.

I still remember Carly Rae Jepsen's song gaining traction on tiktok last year and a huge flood of users were hating saying she was "trying to tiktokafy her track" because it included a bridge 🤡 Edited February 16 by Starmie25 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mean Winchester 410 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I just hope she'd take a 5 minutes or more approach for this one just to piss off the one minute streaming trend. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTPOPe 10,023 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Well, you know what they say... It's not the length that matters, it's how it's used Hopefully though the average length is 3:30-3:59, with a few even longer ones. Just really want one song of hers where she goes absolutely feral and ignores all current conventions and makes a 12 minute masterpiece.

Killa 15,719 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 i voted for what i think will be: 3-3.30 min. I honestly think they haven't found the right formula to reduce time in pop songs. It just can't have the same structure. There are great music in pop and even masterpieces in classical music that you'll be surprised how short they are. But def being constrained by that fact alone isn't welcomed. Like, give us 4 songs that are under the 3 min mark and 6 where you develop a bit more some concepts. If you know what's comercial and what's not, i dont see the problem. A song under 6 min isn't that long cmon. I'm saying 10 cause i def prefer less well crafted songs that a bunch of snippets. not saying gaga would ever do that but so many songs lately feel like interludes.
