TimisaMonster 31,073 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Her career isn't about what the fans want though. With every interview and post being about "I do all of this for you! I am you and you are me! I will always fight for you and make music that you love and makes you happy! Without you, I wouldn't be here today!...etc, etc." How can you say that?

She could release good music and make good performances, but her fans would be "over her" for not performing a current single. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will always fight for you and make music that you love and makes you happy! Without you, I wouldn't be here today!...etc, etc." How can you say that? Of course she would say that. Otherwise all the little kids who stan for her would feel offended. Lady Gaga is a grown woman and she can make her own decisions. She can do what she wants.

Hell, many fans consider it one of her best songs she chose what the fans actually wanted, and weren't hypnotised by the charts as to what they wanted We JUST found out she was performing ARTPOP today...how was that a fan choice? Everyone was assuming and EXPECTING the 3rd single and when it was still a "rumor"...people were having meltdowns left and right...hardly sounds like were thrilled at first...I just think after a while, they didn't want to be "haters" and just accepted that they couldn't do anything about it... The performance has nothing to do with charts...it's a brand new 3rd single era, so we can't possibly be "upset" about something that hasn't happened yet...STILL nothing regarding the 3rd single has happened...:nooo: Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

A couple hours ago, everyone was having meltdowns that she was rumored to be performing ARTPOP... It could've been any other song tbh...the fans in general just wanted her to perform her new single and not just a random song...is that really too much to expect from her?

DrewStevens 5,249 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 The only problem I have is that if she lives for the art, why is she not doing anything releated to it? She could be singing in clubs, festivals, radio stations... but she only performs at big shows. She used to make a lot of that when she wasn't so famous. After Applause everything turned out into a odd era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Affinity4PoP 16 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Because this is the rebirth of the ARTPOP "era"/album cycle. The true beginning. Gaga's said how she believes people can be reborn countless times, and its always been a theme in her work (the original Monsterball theme, the vessel, the Born This Way video, parts of the Born This Way Ball, the Birth of Venus references)... And the lyrics are perfect for this time in her career. "Free my mind, ARTPOP" obviously a lot has been going on in her mind lately. She's been depressed, she came back from the press turning against her and had a hit single only for her fans to turn against her. She needs to clear her mind and have a fresh start. "In all your glamour and cruelty" again glamour would represent the fame, the performances, the art, and cruelty is the press and her "fans". "Sometimes the simplest move is right The melody that you choose Can rescue you" I feel like those really speak for themselves. again, Gaga isn't just doing things for attention (Miley Cyrus) or sales (Katy Perry). She's putting out what she wants. Do What U Want could've been a top 10 hit, it sold a million copies. If she put out the video and did another performance or 2 and pushed the remixes on radio and iTunes it would've been massive. But she didn't want to put something out that wasn't her best work or her artistic vision "Could try to sell you out or I Could show you all the reasons why My ARTPOP could mean anything" "Brushes with darkness won't help you create your destiny of self But ARTPOP could mean anything... anything! I try to sell myself but I am really laughing Because I just love the music, not the bling Music, not the bling" Brushes with darkness won't help you create your destiny. Destiny could refer to her career and brushes with darkness could refer to selling out. Basically, true artists like MJ or Madonna didn't sellout and instead put out great music and visuals that paved their career. She tries to sell herself, she sometimes does act as a mainstream artist, but really this is all satirical and a joke she's in on because really she just needs this big budget to promote her art to the masses. Beyoncé had a massive 2013. She played the Superbowl, her perfumes were hits, she continued to promote numerous products and do massive ad campaigns with Pepsi and H&M, she soldout a worldwide arena tour, and then surprised us with an album. She didn't have a hit single. She just put out her best work and did some amazing performances. Gaga will have a single, but I don't think that needs to be her focus. Maybe the album sales aren't amazing right now, but look at how good the tour is doing. In most cities, all the good seats are gone. I bought my Seattle tickets back in December but when I tried to get tickets in San Antonio I could only find seats in the back. All the shows are doing really well. Gaga didn't go on TV to promote her new single. She went to perform and promote herself. They talked about her album, her tour. She wasn't just shoving a song down our throats. Relax guys. She's in the Louvre right now, she's going to be on Barbra Streisand's album...like she's a living legend!! She just shot the biggest video of her career and based off of what we know it could be her best yet. Who else shoots at Hearst F*cking Castle!!? She doesn't need to slay any chart. She's putting out some of her best work. Just be happy, because did you guys see how unhappy she was at the end of the year? Recently I broke down crying watching her old Oprah special because she tries so hard for us and you guys just b---h and moan. I live in Austin! And it's funny the types of people I run into that break out into a song like Venus because they simply like it - when someone asked what it is, it's fun to see how they react when that person reveals it's Gaga because it's almost unknown. I want to go to the San Antonio show, but I also want to go to the Houston show. I just moved here from Chicago - so I really feel like I should go to that show since her BF is there. MAYBE ALL THREE. Who knows at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's not all about singles. Dance in the Dark was a tribute to Alexander cuz he died...why would anyone dare be upset over that? However, she still sang Telephone too... When Gaga performed Monster on Oprah, she didn't JUST perform it by itself...she performed Bad Romance along with the songs Speechless was again sang along after she sang Bad Romance at the AMA's too The point here...ARTPOP was just a stand alone performance with no new single...
