A thought just occured to me: is "we could, we could belong together" line possibly about Art and Pop being combined into one?

 

YES! This is exactly what I believe the record will be about lyrically. The title track will probably be about the duality of Art and Pop.

 

I was reading an interview with Marina Abramovic this morning where she talked about money and fame and that it shouldn't be the motivation for making art. But fame and money are a motivation in Pop music. In fact, it is driven by fame and money, not necessarily from the artist himself but the label thrive on an artist's marketability.

"I try to sell myself but I'm really laughing because I just love the music, not the bling." "I'd rather be poor and happy than rich and alone."

 

I think there will also be ambiguity with the lyrics, a double meaning. Just like "We could, we could belong together" can be about love and also the duality of Pop and Art. "If love is a sin, live a lie. You and me until I die." "I won't die, but I can't live without you". It sounds corny as f*ck, but if it's about the necessity of art in one's life, then it's brilliant. "We could be caught, we're both convicted criminals of thought."

"A hybrid can withstand these things. My heart can beat with bricks and strings. My ARTPOP could mean anything" might explore her own duality, the duality of her entier career: how can you be a pop star (especially female) and still be taken seriously as a genuine artist? Is there such a thing as a hybrid of pop and art? Could they, could they belong together?

Bloody hooker

Why so much hate towards DJWS? :( he's amazing tho and gaga's best friend

Yes, why is there so much hate? His productions are great.

This mutual gaze was a “longing to touch” or a "pre-coitus" stare.

Agreed. I love him, I think he's funny, and anyone who doesn't think Government Hooker's beat is among Gaga's most interesting and unique is cray :awkney:

MADEON PLEASE. Bored of DJWS and Zedd.

But.... we haven't even heard a real Zedd and Gaga song yet...

Wow you made the best point in this whole thread. And those lyrics your paired up make so much sense!! I think youre on to something. I think this album is also an extension of living half way between fantasy and reality at all times.

Wasnt it said that the producer of the lead was a surprise and a female? We speculated MIA or even gaga herself. The lead has not been changed for a long time so why would it be any of the producers being discussed??

I haven't been here in a while... hence, this is information overload for me! Can I just say that I've never been excited like this before?  :excited:
