StarryNight 10,106 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 How do we know that's the final version of Brooklyn Nights? Aura leaked before ARTPOP and she kept it on the album, and the demo version wasn't drastically different from the studio version. She said she already has Act II, so doesn't that mean everything is finalized? yes, that BN leak is probably some old demo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levine 23,591 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 After BTW, I knew the next era wasn't going to be big or huge. I just knew it. The damage was just too much. But after ARTPOP, I know the new era will be big, one of the best of her career. That is not gonna happen with an ACT II (it would perform just like AP), but only with a brand new album. So, I hope she'll release some new tracks via the app, goes on tour and release a new album by the end of 2015. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

migelle 0 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Are there any plans for another single from ARTPOP? Anyways, I think she might get this release ready for Late Summer/Early Autumn. Around the VMA's most likely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raikov 183 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I'm not even entirely convinced we're getting Act II now, after the way she talked about it at SXSW. Yeah she said it's basically done, but it seems like she'd be much happier just keeping it to herself than releasing it to the public. She's been building it up and teasing it and it kind of felt like a punch to the gut to hear her say "Hmm, I might just keep it for me and my friends to listen to." :( I would love to hear it. And I agree that calling it ACT II on its own would be pretty sweet. The ARTPOP connection is implied but not obvious, so those who weren't fans of ARTPOP won't have a knee-jerk reaction against it. I hope she does decide to release it, either by the app (which I hope is not dead) or by some other method. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toanythingtaboo 5 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Her saying that it exists but isn't sure if she wants to release it because it's nice to have it for herself - to me - said a lot. At the end of the day, she would release it if she thought it was good enough and it was the best thing to do...so, I feel we can pretty safely assume that she's debating that. She also said that she planned on using ACT I and ACT II to structure the tour, which would mean it should be out pretty soon if she wants to carry that out. My guess is that she's ditched the plan of ACT II, or ACT II has has evolved into something else. She may have creatively moved on from ARTPOP or perhaps would rather a clean slate for the next album if she is to combat the negativity. Personally, I was always pro-ACT II, but now I don't feel it's the best move. The pros remain that she can use ACT II to boost ACT I's performance, reinvent the tour with new material but without a new era, and satisfy her creative need to prove ARTPOP without all the things that messed up ACT I. However, the con of it being attached to ACT I is increasingly becoming unavoidable. ARTPOP is an unfairly heavy weight for ACT II to be burdened with - regardless of how good it may be, a lot of people won't give it a chance - and it's going to be tough to deliver an album that's consistent with ACT I yet is relevant sonically to 2014 considering ACT I itself struggled with that. If she goes through with ACT II, I'd like to see: - G.U.Y as last ACT I single. - Release lead ACT II single in June. Summer is the best time for dance anthems. - Feature on a major urban collab over summer. - Put Terry X Gaga docufilm on Netflix. - PapaTele continuation as 2nd ACT II single (ft. Brit/Bey), performed at VMAs. - ARTPOP ACT II released alongside as a stand alone but also re-release with ACT I. - Cheek To Cheek released in November. - Add singles to tour setlist, and revamp featuring both tracklists for the next WW round in 2015. etc. In terms of sound: more along the lines of DWUW/Sexxx Dreams, quite disco-R&B pop for the most part.

Girl Under You 332 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I did read somewhere that Princess Die won't be on Act II but maybe on the app Did she confirm that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernBlonde 4 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Around. (Unimpressed by username not fitting into this new cover avatar format. ) toanythingtaboo - we miss you on DS! Hope you come back soon! I'd love an act II but as others have said, for it to be outwardly associated with ARTPOP might not do it any favours. GUY has got a lot of good reviews but I don't know how well it's going to do really. I think it'd be good, if she wants to release an act II, to make it maybe an EP like she did with TFM, and film one big long MV for it, including all the songs, which can then be split up individually as needs be.

gagavsartpop 0 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I don't think she will add the songs that didn't make ARTPOP. I would want them just from the app. I don't want it to be seen as the B-side of ARTPOP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
