I only really like half the album 

I can live without The Fame, Summerboy, Boys Boys Boys, Disco Heaven, Starstruck, Eh Eh, Beautiful Dirty Rich

The Fame feels more authentic to me, which is why I love it so much. It showcases her creativity and talent with what she had at the time. She had a concept and stuck to it, and it worked! Something about the cheap wig and having 2 dancers felt so real to me. She worked day and night for that.

Not saying the albums that came after it aren't, I'm just saying that The Fame was when she was most vulnerable while she  was discovering her image. 

I also think that Summerboy is one of her best songs on that album. She needs to perform more than just the hits!!

Honestly, I love that on the last 3 tours/eras she's dug out deep cuts and shown them love.

Bloody Mary at JWT/Scheiße & Teeth at Coachella 2017/Monster for TCB and then Summerboy/the encores and piano surprises for Mayhem.

Like I never thought I'd hear Teeth/Speechless/DITD again and I got all 3 at my show. It was amazing.

The virality of Summerboy kinda ruined the song for me. Before it went viral it gave me a big sense of nostalgia but it's gone forever.

I Like It Rough is a ****ing bop.

The last seconds of Poker Face where she repeats the same phrase are super annoying and I always want it to end.

The feature on Just Dance kinda ruined the song. Without him I would have loved the track even more.

I liked Boys Boys Boys a lot but now I don't because it's kinda cringey.

"Love it when you call me "legs", in the morning buy me eggs"

Is one of my favorite lyrics, it's funny and it paints a picture of Gaga crashing at Lücs Brooklyn appartement and him, hungover AF stumbling out of bed to get his girl some eggs.

According to Gaga I'm a ****ing rad bitch

she does say that, listen to the stems :Cautious:

Listened to the stems & my stance remains the same, no she doesn't.

But just in case, the thread is called Unpopular Opinions & not Unpopular Facts

S-s-s-saving face, s-s-saving face

When you quoted me I thought I was going to get chewed out, LOL. But this was very pleasant. 

Same, it's only fair that more songs get their shine every once and a while.

An adorable lyric. Bizarre that it's hated on

I’m currently in my The Fame phase (I go through loads of them) so can someone link me a good fanmade documentary of the era? I used to have one but think I lost the link

I think Jewels N Drugs is meant to be bad on purpose. It serves the concept of the album more than being an actual song. Gaga never said this, its just how I see it.

Disco Heaven and Paper Gangsta are my only regular skips, I love the album.

Paparazzi is a song I respect. I don't seek it out much and didn't miss it being on the setlist at past tours, but I'm glad it's back.

I think Brown Eyes is incredible. I love it... seems like I've seen others scoffing at if over the years. I think it's fantastic and am hoping I hear it on the piano at Mayhem in March :)

Not fanmade but totally real and nonfiction
