Smother Em Eh

While we celebrate ARTPOP’s 12th anniversary, I wanna talk about some lil things you like about some of the songs.

For example, I love the banjo in Auras intro, G.U.Y’s bridge, the way she pronounces G.U.Y in the last chorus. She sounds just like she does in ROM during that. Love the way she pronounces “Jupiter” in Venus, “Saturn… JUPITA!”, also MJH’s bridge slays, even if the lyrics are a lil cringe. 

I also LOVE Donatellas pre chorus, gives it a lil break from the bone crushing beat, lastly, love the little A-R-T-P-O-P when Applause ends.

I love the hardcore drums of Applause

The second chorus of Gypsy with the harmonies 

The main synth of the title track, it sounds so hypnotic

The MANiCURE trap outro (best part of the song imo)

How unique Jewels N’ Drugs sounds in her discography

How unapologetically weird Aura and Venus are

That quiet twinkly sparkly synth in the choruses of Venus.
"WHEN YOU TOUCH ME (ding!) I DIE (ding!)... (ding ding!)"

The crunchy bassline in G.U.Y., and her distorted vocal lead.

The first four seconds of Sexxx Dreams are TO DIE A TINY BIT FOR.

Do What U Want's synthwavy bassline inspired DOZENS of my songs :cryga::brat:

The piano in Swine at 2:37 to 2:52... WHAT THE **** INSPIRED THAT? It sounds like it could be the theme for a jazz-themed villain in some arcade fighting game and I live for it. And he was like a friend at first and then betrayed your party because of something innocuous you did early on? IDEK BUT **** I LOVE THAT PIANO RIFF :flippy:

would it be too much to ask for shadows from you? / your silhouette's a lovely view
