It's exactly like when we got Bad Romance minus the impact and innovation! :cheeky:

Gaga's ballads are truly amazing and some of her best on almost all albums. 

Brown Eyes deserves so many flowers

Her music has never been all that experimental and it doesn't need to be to be good. Her biggest asset to her songwriting is her ear for great hooks and catchy phonic sounds, which are more pop assets than anything else. I'm glad she's not feeling the need to be musically avant garde anymore (which again she never was, but kinda postured to be for a minute), because when she's relaxed and chill like Mayhem, things fall into place readily. Push yourself, but also know your strengths and preferences.

She needs an Adele moment. Full soulful ballad album that is not over produced! 
 

she needs to work with more women! In music and acting.

She'll do well on Broadway one day

But she is not a gifted film/tv actress

I'm torn on if she'd do well on Broadway because I feel like it's really part dependent for her. 
I feel like she's always at a 10 even if the moment calls for a 5.

Like atm on the West End/Broadway, I feel like her best possible role would be Sally in Cabaret. But a good Sally is able to swing wildly between a 1 and a 10 on the energy scale like a manic depressive, and I feel like Gaga gets a little too tunnel visioned with playing for the back of the room. 

She'd make an interesting Persephone in Hadestown, but it's a relatively small role for a Broadway/West End debut by someone like Gaga and it's not a production that's been doing much in the way of stunt casting. 

Personally, I think Gaga needs to do a comedy first. Something that will force her to moderate her character a bit more and focus on giving them peaks and valleys. 
 

This is what I'd want from a Gaga stage debut.

Less "actress" ...more "distractress"

I still think her best role was AHS tbh. She was fine in ASIB but that is because that role was tailor made for her and she was not great in HOG (along with everything and everyone else in that movie) especially her accent. She was fine in Joker FOD but she did not have much to work with and not much character either or real moments to show off her skills.

side note:  I thought it was so strange how she went on and on in interviews about "Lee" being this super complex and layered female character when she is just Arthur's crazy love interest in the film and a stand in for the "obsessed fangirl who loves the psycho" archetype like girl are we talking about the same movie? Idek if adding in her many deleted scenes would have changed anything though.

Couldn't agree more. But I confess I'm not a huge Broadway/theater savant, so I wouldn't know what show/character in particular would work best for her.

I just know (in my involuntary, knee-jerk, gut feeling) despite WANTING her to succeed..... she does not have what it takes to be a film/tv actress. People are lying to her/using her name to draw attention to their projects

I think she has film/tv potential. 

But only if it's a role that forces her to effectively play it straight. Like ASIB was built for her, AH/HoG/JFAD were all super character focused which I think she just ends up naturally hamming up and over-camping. 
I do think though that with her filmography as is, along with her musical persona that directors/showrunners probably aren't considering her for "normal" roles though.

Scheiße is a good song but overrated by this fanbase (Mugler remix is better)

Well I like both a lot but feel like the Scheibe remix goes on for a bit too long and I mostly listen to the album version and no I disagree it is not overrated at all.

The holy trinity of BTW is Bloody Mary, Heavy Metal Lover & Government Hooker

Agree with this but replace HML with FOHL or BJ + AF

Just Dance is a more replayable song than Poker Face

Both are great but I prefer PF more overall and listen to it more:glamourpuss:

Fashion Of His Love is LG's sweetest song

Haters better be fast runners

I only give 0-second head starts

Yes Yes Yes Yes YES, that is in my top 10 Gaga songs ever I love it sm, it always puts me in a good mood and I think it is one of the best love songs she had ever made. FOHL haters need better hearing.

If I'm proven wrong, I'll wear it 🤷🏽‍♂️

I just don't see it ever happening ("it" being me personally thinking she's grown/developed the skills for film/tv, normal roles or otherwise.... not "it" meaning her being rewarded/praised for it, which is already happening to the nth degree, & is always difficult to stomach)

That song literally shuffled up for the first time in months when I was on a drive today … instantaneous karaoke mode, windows down, sunroof back, the works … I didn‘t like it until my little sister successfully lobbied for its validity (it took a good eighteen months, but we got there in the end) … whew, vibes and tribes

Disease isn't as brilliant as everyone makes it out to be. It's really good but not outstanding. It's a cookie-cutter, kind of predictable "dark pop song".

Agree it is my fav on Mayhem but ever since I heard this version I don't really listen to the album version much:
