JustAnotherGayASMR 238 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 21 minutes ago, Chromanne said: I still wonder that why a song about m@stu®bation is a part of Joanne, an album that is a tribute to her deceased aunt and was supposedly created to heal her still mourning father. Most importantly, what would Joanne herself think about this song if she were to listen to this album that is a tribute to her? Would she confront her niece Stefani about it if she were to meet her one day? It's something I've wondered before. At first it does seem a little out of place but like others have said I think the song Joanne is the direct tribute & the other songs focus more on other aspects of human trauma/healing. AD - Violence, death, religion JW - Turbulent relationships MR - Heartbreak, faith Etc etc DIC lyrics covers the theme of trauma in my eyes as she mentions "feels good to be lonely", "rub the pain out", "hurts inside but not this time". I see it as a way that she deals with trauma, maybe not her aunt's death specifically but just the woes of life. I'm sure Joanne would be able to see the artistic vision behind it. After all it's just another gay x https://www.youtube.com/@JustAnotherGayASMR 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always just thought of it as a song about herself being sad because Taylor was not with her and their relationship was becoming rocky and it’s a common thing for people with depression to use masturbation to give oneself serotonin. It’s absolutely a feminist album. But people often forget the fact we know; she played the album for Interscope and they made her work with Bloodpop (who had just given Justin Bieber his career revival with Skrillex at the time) to come in and add a “pop” flare back into the album and I feel like DIC was one of those songs.

I have this whole theory about Joanne's narrative and how the album's overarching theme is trauma and trauma responses. DiC is about loneliness, hypersexuality (something a lot of SA'd people develop), and self indulgence. As others have said, the Joanne album is about Gaga, not Joanne. 🥀 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

27monster27 14,447 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 2 hours ago, gagzus said: Exactly this, Joanne is essentially her “come of age” record when she finally stopped being a young woman and became an adult and started realising what she wanted to make sonically and how she wanted to write. It’s essentially the younger (albeit more stubborn) version of Mayhem. We have songs like Diamond Heart about the time she was basically in the seedy underbelly of NYC but at the core of the gogo dancing, the drug taking, the partying she was a good person. A-yo is a direct response to the hate she got for ARTPOP imo and how she’s saying “I can’t wait for you to eat your words”, Perfect Illusion, DIC and Million Reasons are about 3 stages of her relationship with Taylor “peak, breakdown and post revelation”. Songs like Come to Mama, Just Another Day and Angel Down are about Gaga’s personality at the age in which she wrote it about her world views and her longing for a simple life. Grigio Girls is obviously about her girlfriends rallying around each other and Sonja in particular. And of course Joanne is about her dad and what she felt like he would’ve said to her if he could see her one more time. This right here. This is probably one of the best understandings of the album I've seen. he/him/his Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RochesterJoannster 3,583 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 I don’t think it’s about Masturbation in a “dirty” way as much as it’s about the feelings of loneliness that come with it. So it really does work. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
