After reading some of these Imma come with a real unpopular opinion:

The Queen is overrated and a skip, that bridge/outro kills me everytime and makes me skip the song (if i havent skipped it before I get to that point)

the BTW era was the worst time in terms of her overexposure 

That would definitely be TFM

It didn’t feel like it became a negative thing until the BTW era. 
 

During TF/M, although she was everywhere, people weren’t generally sick of her yet like they were by the time MTN became a single.

Yes and no, I don’t know, I remember it all being a hot mess starting from Alejandro 

The Alejandro video being ultra criticized, the media starting to set the tone for the BTW day with Gaga’s assistant story, “Lady Gaga copies Madonna”, “Lady Gaga wants to retire”, “Lady Gaga spends millions to protect herself from a ghost”, “Lady Gaga wants to k*ll herself”, “Lady Gaga falls in public”, “Lady Gaga faints on stage”, “Lady Gaga has lupus”, then the meat dress…

BTW was definitely the first era where it was a mess from the very start, I agree with that, but it was already a big mess by the end of TFM

1 The standard album cover is better (I used to prefer the special edition cover but I love the metal vibe of the standard cover) 

2 Heavy Metal Lover is overrated 

3 Scheiße, Government Hooker, and Americano are the best non single tracks. 
 

4 I love the BTW music video but the beginning is too messy 

5 The Judas music video is overrated 

6 The You And I music video is underrated  

7 The era had some of her best looks but also some of her worst

Didn't she also want the era to be more stripped down in terms of aesthetic, but Troy Carter made her go with what we got?

Not entirely sure, but I know that the album shoot didnt turn out the way she wanted it to that’s why it’s heavily edited

Releasing Judas as the second single was stupid. She should’ve waited till later in the era if she wanted. She only did it to be spicy.

I feel like everything about Born This Way is so maximalist musically that I couldn’t really see it being more stripped back visually

Okay ladies, let's GO!

Marry the night should have been like a pre single, kinda like what DWAS was and then in February she would have released BTW at the grammies to snatch our weaves! Like MTN deserved so much more than to be the 100th single :messga:

As much as I love the video for Judas, and the song itself, I kinda wish she would have released Scheiße or anything else after BTW. That song and vid during easter was such a bad choice for how the public perceived her for just no reasn. Like Madonna proved blasphemy does badly with the normies, you didn't have to do it too Gagaaa 

You and I doesn't get enough love, especially the video is a visual FEAST! but I do wish that instead of sampling WWRY she would have kept the beat and melodies of the live version.

I also wish the BTW single cover was the album cover, or like the peaches out biker jacket btw pic. Like I get what it represents but as I said in another thread, I dislike the font and how badly the editing on the anatomical part is :ladyhaha:

I also wish the tour had more visuals than just mother Goat floating around. Like yea the castle was impressive as **** and the lighging was gorge, but there could have been some screen visuals between acts.

I do also wish that the make up was a bit less... Abrasive :icant: i got what she was going for. but when she was transitioning to the ARTPOP era and her make up got softer I was like.. oh right, she's a regural gorgeous bitch!

HML is overrated (not a bad song, I don’t skip it, sometimes its boring, it’s just so overrated in the fanbase imo)

BTW single studio version and video are awful. I do kinda like BTW live tho.
