Controversial Gaga Takes (Music Editions)

[The Breast 5,948]

Killah is a once-in-a-lifetime song, closest thing to perfect tbh. There's just nothing like it

A fun, funky, unique track that sits at the bottom half of MAYHEM ranking (without the bridge)

With the bridge?

An abomination

My only hot take is that Chromatica is bad but it seems enough people have come to see the light there that it's not controversial anymore

Is it?

Because I can only think of one (1) other person on this site who hates it as much as I do.

The rest of you voraciously gobble it up... inexplicably

I mean that you alone have trashed it enough that it's turned into one

Well we have taste 
And I take my words back as soon as I see opinions on Dead Dance

Oh, my bad. That's fair 

Well the gracious OP asked for "mess!"

I'm not going to show up to a potluck empty-handed

Lol nah, just a dumb joke about this being a perfect "bait thread" for me

Apparently I have more than my fair share of controversial/bad takes 

Is NUTversiaga's rise a threat to Controversiaga?

 

[Ladle Ghoulash 49,387]

TDD is a good song.

SOAW is a bad song.

She seems to have a monopoly on unhinged controversy

 

I just TELL the truth. It only bothers those w NUT allergies

Killah Requiem had so much potential but it sounds like a mess. The vocals sound shaky (probably due to vocal effect), there’s too much happening. I like its electronic instrumental and the way she rocks that synth A LOT, but it doesn’t work that well with the rest of the band and chosen effects.  There’s something off. I think either ditching the vocal distortion or making it even more electro-industrial would work better, like here:

 

I’m still hyped af she’s interpolated Closer, I’ve been an og gaga-nin truther ever since she dropped this snippet and it reminded me of nin’s Piggy:

Honestly I agree about Killah on REQUIEM and I say that as someone who’s a huge fan of the song and of REQUIEM. My biggest gripe is honestly abandoning the funky component, especially given that it’s clearly referencing Closer, which has that sexy bass groove at the core of it. I don’t think the melody works as well over the REQUIEM arrangement without something that would reflect the glammy groove of the original. I love the energy of it overall and think it’s very good, but the original mops it with ease.
