My ideal Mayhem includes no Abracadabra so I disagree. I would like more songs like Perfect Celebrity, Shadow of a Man and Vanish Into You though.

!!!!!!???? Abracadabra is literally one of her greatest songs of all time. How do you not like it?

No

A couple songs could switch places in the tracklist, but the sonic variety is very Gaga, only one of her solo records is fully cohesive sonically and people complained, then again some LMs will complain about anything

It’s not trying to be anything. It’s genius. IMO it’s better than Bad Romance. Abracadabra saved my ears to be totally honest

If there was a Bad Romance vs Abracadabra thread, I would vote for Bad Romance. :hor:

Blade Of Grass is absolutely horrible, but other than that I don’t think I’d change much

That said, for the next album, I hope to hear something more self-inspired. Cause she’s always been unafraid to reference or not reference (:trollga:) but for me, after Garden Of Eden, every single song sounds like something we’ve heard before, or directly like another song from another artist. That doesn’t change the fact that the album is reeeeeeally great, but I hope the next one sounds more new/unique, like her first albums (I’m not saying I want the same sound though, just referencing older music in a less obvious way)

It sounds nothing like Bad Romance, the only similar thing is that she sings her name in both songs :ladyhaha: if anything, you could compare it to Venus

This is the criticism that is most often stated about Mayhem, that it should have had more songs that harken back to her signature sound. What is your objective take on this take and how would you refute or support it? 

so many songs do harken to her signature sound though ... disease, abra, goe, perfect celebrity, viy, killah, soam all sound like distant cousins to tracks from tfm, btw and/or artpop ...

I love Abracadabra and couldn't leave it out. But I agree on the rest. My ideal Mayhem would've included more Perfect Celebrity-esque songs. And it's why I'm glad Can't Stop the High got added to the deluxe as it's the closest in my opinion.

An album full of Abracadabra type songs would be great since it's one of the best songs on the album, but it wouldn't be MAYHEM if it was that cohesive :sis:
