I forgot to mention that I love Scheisse and it could’ve been absolutely perfect.

But the way they did the arrangement/mixing of the chorus is an absolute disaster, it sounds way too abrasive compared to the rest of the song and the beautiful synth chords weren’t done justice at all, also because of the horrible bass (what was RedOne thinking) that is messy and doesn’t follow the rhythm and melody of the synths.

I actually always thought the chorus sounded messy af, but I couldn’t understand exactly why until I listened to the stems. And damn, the chorus bass is really, really, really bad. (10:43)

The rest of the song is perfect though 🙌🏻

bad? but why do you think it’s BAD?

I respect your opinion but I genuinely think the bass is not supposed to really stand out in this part I think it’s just meant to be heavy, thick and industrial so it can back the main and backing vocals (the oh oh oh’s which are key to the song) and show those insane whipping synths. I don’t really see what else could be done with the bass here.

I love Jewels n Drugs but I hate Twista’s feature.

Ah. That sharp, piercing beeping noise on every clap/snare in Disease is just grating if you have a decent pair of headphones. And every other one is just slightly off-beat. It adds nothing to an otherwise great song.

[Yaaaas Gaga 1,224]

Born This Way is one of my fav Gaga songs, but I can't stand a certain background noise in the chorus that I can only compare to cutlery being shaken in a drawer. Like, what were they thinking? Other than that, absolutely iconic, game-changing song.

The studio version of Paparazzi is a bit basic bitch for me, but many of the live versions, i.e. VMA's, Mayhem Ball etc make it easily one of my favourite Gaga songs. I just wish the studio version had the theatre and dramatics of the live versions, but I appreciate the GP wouldn't have been able to handle it.

I hate how she paid dust to MAYHEM (only 2 singles) and didn't use Zombieboy for Wednesday

There’s even a zombie storyline on the show ! I’m sure she knew very little about the storyline when she made the song but it’s unfortunate

Song I love: Aura

What I hate about it: The leaked version should have been the album version. 

[uglysexy 243]

I like The Beast but the lines "the girls are scared of you a legend in your neighborhood, last week you left somebody dead you're so misunderstood" and the repeated "tick-tock" "11.59" are way too corny and they ruins the song a bit.

Disease is a great song but I could never fully like the AH-AHs and I like that they're replaced by violins in the live version.

HBDYWM is decent and I think it's catchy but I HATE that e-ee-e-e-e-eeee echo sound, it sounds like she's just going hehehehe with a very annoying nasal voice.

I like Killah but something about the instrumental and style feel dated... I wish it was more experimental and industrial. Same for Shadow of a Man.

What's wrong with this line? Genuinely curious 

It’s kinda stupid and cringey. Like who says that? Like I get what she’s saying but girls it’s giving “in the morning buy me eggs”.

You're half-psychotic sick hypnotic for that take

[Helxig 45,337]

Is it a cop out to say that I love Swine but the build-up is too long, and not as impactful without the drums like in the Swinefest version. Also the screaming vocals in the Aura demo were better. I feel bad harping on about the 'Swinefest versions were better' bullshit after all these years but those are my two things

Otherwise I can't think of anything off the top of my head... 

Also I (like most of the fanbase, shocker) don't love Jewels & Drugs but the chorus slaps.. jewels and drugs baabbbby hustle smootherr emm (if you wanna be baadd)

A lot of her songs in recent albums have had lyrics that I've found just a little.. on the nose or corny. I feel like she used to be so creative with her writing but now she focusses more on the music as a whole and doesn't.. idk 'waste time' perfecting the lyrics

And I agree with the e-ee-e-e-e-eeee parts. They're a similar vibe to what I didn't love about Plastic Doll

Like, maybe not even the first chorus, but the one that closes out the song, they could have added a lil smth smth you know what I'm sining 

i get what u mean. i actually made a remix of aura with the structure based on hold it against me by britney (final chorus has actual drums and stuff) 

[JoeCool 1,007]

Government Hooker loved but not so much performing for actual politicians
