The whole Fame album -> The Fame monster -> MTN video -> ARTPOP / Donatella / DWUW / Aura -> Perfect Illusion -> Chromatica is like the loneliness of fame Fun Tonight, you love the papparazzi love the fame…. -> Harlequin/Happy Mistake -> Mayhem Perfect Celebrity Edited September 15, 2025 by GerMonsterNotta Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ladle Ghoulash 32,024 Posted September 16, 2025 Share Posted September 16, 2025 Just now, NewUsername said: I included it in that category, because I remember reading this interpretation (I think it was here or on Tumblr), about this part of the lyrics: "We could be caught (I just want this to be perfect) We're both convicted criminals of thought ('cause I'm broken) Let's white-glove the bed (by the one before) (he was kinda nasty, ah) Help me here (and I feel so trashy) 'Cause we can't hide the evidence in our heads" I can't find it anymore, though.

Feels more like a criminal metaphor about a forbidden/taboo affair than anything explicitly political tbh We have forgotten our public MANNERS Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
