Yall this album ‘bout to be huge. I’m at the LSU football game and the university of south Alabama’s band ALREADY had a halftime routine that ended with “Oh When the Saints”!   

These bands are hyped!  I hope they add the joker and happy mistake next.

Has anyone else noticed how BOOMING the bass is on Smile? It almost feels like it’s foreshadowing the intensity coming on The Joker.

And the ending with that very ominous trailing fade out or whatever the term is, chilling. From the original message of the song "smile, pull through, life is worthwile, spread happiness" to sounding like as if it's saying "smile and cause chaos, they failed you"

I didn't like it. Played one song and said "no". I'm not gonna force myself to enjoy a project I didn't like like I did with Cheek to Cheek and Joanne. So, how may of you are forcing to like the album just because it's Gaga?

You seem so annoying irl lol

I think this is the first time Gaga’s ballad touched my heart. Happy Mistake. It’s personal and emotional. I feel it with so much emotions. I’m on the verge of tears. I can feel the music talking directly to me. The lyrics. Oh dear. 😢

She's absolutely beaming on this album. You can just her feel energy and excitement to be making music again.

So... I cried listening to Close To You again today. That trumpet solo going into the final chorus... "that is whyyy a-all the girls in town... follow you all aroooound."

One of her finest recorded moments.

That’s Entertainment grew on me so much. Didn’t like it so much on first listen but I love how fun it is and escalates to an amazing crescendo at the end. Gaga’s voice is supreme on it and more restrained overall which I really appreciate. Such a great album overall!

I'm super excited for a solo jazz album, I need an album full of Lush Life's and Bang Bangs

The Joker is her best vocal performance ever. This album is flawless

[Leblanc 2,487]

Okay after a few days with the album there's about about 3 tiers of songs for me. Theres a couple i couldnt see myself listening too but thats mainly because im not particularly a fan of slower songs in general. But the instrumentation on this project literally cannot be faulted. Her voice is in its element and I wasnt expecting to get such a musical theatre vibe but its muchly appreciated and it takes me back to doing shows at my school. And for me the album just keeps getting better, songs in the top tier for me are:

Oh when the saints

If my friends could see me now

That's entertainment 

The joker

Folie a deux 

Gonna build me a mountain

Happy mistake

That's life

[Leblanc 2,487]

Also I think I genuinely ascend everytime I hear her sing 'Gabriel' in the back half of 'Gonna build me a mountain'
