That's alright, and I suppose that is a way to look at it. I'm listening to Stay by Hurts right now and REALLY wish she would have them featured on a song or vice versa. I think their vocals together would be like :worship2:

The songs still need the tell-tale signs of chart topping pop hits (well, more often that not...suppose Somebody That I Used To Know is an exception). Sometimes people just want a song from Gaga that's kind of carefree or purely s-xual like Just Dance and LoveGame respectively (I feel like a broken record now).

That's what I meant by "commercial," though. :)

But her music doesn't have to be like Just Dance or LoveGame to be successful. Bad Romance, Alejandro and TEOG were all quite out-there, but commercial enough to be big hits.

KoScoJo- I've never heard them before. But I just looked up/listened to 'Stay' and they would make a good a collab! Maybe a 'The Queen' style song?

Anyone else think Gaga was channeling the novel 1984 by George Orwell with the song lyrics she tweeted?

Yes, the connection popped up in my mind instantly. Gaga could use several ideas from the book on the album... I wouldn't mind, it's one of my favorite books. Also, some fan that went backstage posted on Facebook that Gaga said that she's thinking about the name of the next tour and she mentioned something like: "The Possibilities World Tour". It might be fake, but you know, ARTPOP is about possibilities (:

HausOfHookers- Gaga will never be generic. Never has been, never will be. And I'm not telling you this (cause I know you already know), just saying for anyone who's thinking that way.

I can't wait until all of the pretentious fans that think Gaga is above simple pop music make their way to the exits during ARTPOP.

That's what her career started off as. lol

I actually wouldn't mind if ARTPOP was simple pop. I personally wouldn't want that, but in all honesty there's nothing wrong with that. I just think she could innovate so much within pop than to just stay within it, or in some way do what she started with.

But even if she did, the worst she could do probably wouldn't be bad at all. Devil's advocate, I guess.

That's what I meant by "commercial," though. :)

Sorry I was still in the mindset of responding to SKANK :nails: someone really loves riding on their 2 foot tall pretentious pony. :unicorn: But yeah I also think Gaga needs to do a few collabs on ARTPOP. I mean we've already had a pure Gaga album with Born This Way. I think though Gaga likes having her way (which I mean I would, too, because it would be my music), but I think it'd be a nice change up.

KoScoJo- I've never heard them before. But I just looked up/listened to 'Stay' and they would make a good a collab! Maybe a 'The Queen' style song?

I would love for them to do a slower song like Stay or Speechless together. I've really missed those kinds of songs from Gaga, too. Nice slow/sad songs.

But her music doesn't have to be like Just Dance or LoveGame to be successful. Bad Romance, Alejandro and TEOG were all quite out-there, but commercial enough to be big hits.

Alejandro wasn't that big of a hit if I remember correctly (and I LOVE Alejandro, mind you) and I think The Edge of Glory might be her most famous song from Born This Way in a commercial setting.

I see Bryan's point in simplicity with musical style and themes, but I also see SKANK's point in that I would also want her to avoid from regression. Well, that's subjective in the sense that I think going back to simple partying music is a huge regression.

Not that I'm implying that you see/want her to go back to that, but that she really can do so much more than 'simple pop'. But if that's all ARTPOP is, then so be it.

edit: whoawhoawhoa Bryan, are you Brycake? How come I just noticed this now? :O

Expecting quality music is not pretentious. SKANK is not pretentious.

You can do simple pop and still good/smart Pop. Holding Gaga to a high standard isn't snooty, it's having respect for her work to this point, and for her abilities as an artist.
