nomorescheisse 0 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I'd be done... totally out of here. Maybe she can collab on one or two songs but what I love most about her work is hearing HER soul through the lyrics. If someone else wrote songs for her, it would do nothing for me. I know she's not the best lyricist in the world, but she has her own unique, cutesy style that I adore. If it wasn't her "voice" behind the songs, there would be no point.

Brandon 457 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 If it is good, don't feel like anyonee else wrote it and we won't know that anyone else wrote it than I'm fine with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antidote 95 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 It's normal that you think of ideas and lyrics for a song together with one or two other people, for example also the producers. Gaga does that, everyone does it. But I'm not here for her to hire a songwriter so that she doesn't write anything anymore. She always talked about how she loves songwriting and I would feel betrayed if she did that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elizabeth 450 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I'd be confused as to why when she's a good enough song-writer to write her own. I understand people like DJWS/Zedd/Madeon ect. having co-writing credits since they're working on production with her, but I'd find it very odd if she hired people purely to write songs with her.

ItsTommyBitch 12,640 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 It's not like Gaga's a prolific lyricist. With the exception of a few truly terrific songs, her catalog is full of shticky club bangers. Listen to any song written by Joni Mitchell, then listen to Donatella or Jewels N' Drugs. Now try and tell me that it would be a detriment to Gaga's career for her to collaborate with a song writer or two. There is no shame in singing a song written by another artist. If it is a good song then the performer and audience should be able to feel a connection to it regardless of who wrote it. So, yeah, I would like for her to collaborate with song writers. It can't hurt to try, right? Super deep profound lyrics are not the sign of amazing music (though they can help) I love gaga as a lyricist. Shes super campy, self-referencing and symbolic in ways that arent clear to the GP usually, and the mystery is beautiful. She does not have to make extended metaphors and dance around topics to make good, interpretable, "relatable" lyrics. Not that any of that is bad, but its not what she does most often... I mean look @ the lyrics to Venus. They are half non sensical, but really have a lot of clever-ness behind them. I dont think she was like "aphrodite lady, seashell bikini.." GENIUS LYRIC! But at the same time it really is genius, because it embodies GAGA and ARTPOP at the same time. I would be disappointed if she hired a song writer now. I like the idea of her writing lyrics with her music producers because their input does not change the heart of a song, just maybe the melody/rhythm and things along those lines - its her vision still. I think lyrics are abstract enough of a concept in terms of quality that we can't really say she would get "better" or "could learn a few things" from them unless you narrow it down to a commercial viewpoint or something, which Gaga isnt aiming for always. Sorry, i stan for gaga's lyrics. BTW/ARTPOP had some of the best lyrics gaga has ever written You are right though. There's no shame in singing a song written by someone else, but for someone like Gaga who prides herself on doing them her self, i think she might feel like a sell-out in some ways. 私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think these are not necessarily writers. These are arrangers, producers, musicality experts etc. LADY GAGA is a musical prodigy. I'd love to call her the female version of AUGUST RUSH! She's a good musical artist. If she was a composer, she could have been one of the most loved modern composers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gagz 2,579 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Are we all forgetting she went to RedOne to help write Gypsy? Or the fact that Applause has 8 writers? She has help sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Composers and producers are credited separately. Writers is explicitly for writers. She's literally written only 2 songs by herself as Gaga. Gaga is not a prodigy. Fans need to stop throwing that term around. The music is nice, but the composition is simple and she always follows the same formula (most singles in minor keys, middle eight breakdown, etc). Chords and range are basic. The lyrics are good, but they're not earth-shattering. Also, Lady Gaga is no August Rush. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycho 3,694 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 She's stated before that she writes her won songs, it's one of her qualities as an artist. If that turned out to be false then I'd lose some respect for her. Not because she doesn't write her own songs but for lying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambrosia 3,775 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Good, talented songwriters, with the help of Gaga, would still be capable of writing deep-felt lyrics. There's no shame in collaboration. I would like her to be involved of course - be cool to think of her shooting ideas back and forth with another talented person. :) Do not do to others what angers you if done to you by others. -Socrates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan 0 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Lol why are so many people in here freaking out acting like having a co-writer is the worst thing in the world? Please. Just because someone else had a hand in the lyrics that doesn't automatically mean the song is now "radi0 fodder for puppets liek kety er britney!!!!1!!!"
