Unpopular opinion: Born This Way era

Radio would not have played Heavy Metal Lover in 2011. No dig on the song itself, it just wasn’t the vibe. 
 

I’m still disgruntled over the BTW album cover. Out of all the amazing photography they had for that era (the amniotic fluid shoot, the BTW jacket) the fact that they went with that 6th-grader’s-first-photoshop image leaves me Speechless™️

Also taking the opportunity to share again my layout for the era if I had been in control:

- Delay the album to the fall, kick the era off as The Monster Ball is ending to give her a break from touring/traveling so much over the summer, potentially avoiding the hip incident and a big portion of her exhaustion/burnout

1. Born This Way - May 2011

2. The Edge of Glory - August 2011

Promo Single - Judas (with a music video)

Album - September 2011

3. Yoü and I (US) / Scheiße (WW) - November 2011

4. Hair - February 2012

5. Bloody Mary - April 2012

- Tour starts in summer 2012

- FAME perfume launches with the ARTPOP era, not during the tour

The Queen is such a cute song! The bells are a pure eargasm. I remember listening to the song when it first came out and it made me go from feeling miserable in the evil step sister's house to feeling euphoric. That song will always have RoominmyHeart.mp3

The Queen is an amazing song and should not have been a bonus track, and should have been performed live, and we would have all cried and it would have been amazing :fatcat: 

But that's not too unpopular, here's the take that yall won't like lol: 

Meanwhile the other bonus tracks :awkney: Who get all the attention and performances :awkney: Are actually the ugly sisters and just some cheesy throwaway lyrics over a Madonna 80s beat. Like FOHL being about Alexander McQueen supposedly? That makes zero cents luv. "I'm gonna be his first and last kiss" for a song about a gay fashion designer? Make it make cents luv.  

I've taken a few dips in the lady pond

- Born This Way is her best music video

If you haven't seen any other of her music videos.

It's good, don't get me wrong, but most her other MVs are on another level.

I see you didn't meet a girl in East LA and you're jealous, 'cause this is factually wrong

It's one of my least favorite albums of hers. The hits are hits but the lows are some of the lowest in her discography. Several skips for me. It was my everything when it dropped but looking back it makes me cringe several times throughout listening. 

This is my Hannah Montana™️ lipgloss.

See I actually think black Jesus is more Michael Jackson reminiscent and very good. The queen is good for its bridge and outro but it’s otherwise a fairly standard 80s pop song

This album is way too sentimental for me to even rate it. The whole era was a RIDE!
