TheJoker138 posted:I was in high school during the height of Spears popularity as well and literally cannot recall anyone ever commenting on her looks in any negative way. Even people who hated her thought she was super hot. You're right, I'm making it up and no one ever said anything negative about the way Britney Spears or Christina Aguillera or Madonna or anyone else during their most popular years just because people are negative about everyone. You could add Angelina Jolie, and Julia Roberts too! No one ever said terrible things about them just to be a contrary rear end in a top hat. Oh wait, no, they did all the time.

So after Katy Perry's ROAR leak, it appears Applause is next... Edit: removed snippet since it died. fuseshock fucked around with this message at 23:31 on Aug 10, 2013 |

So, about 10-15 second snippets were leaked from 2 songs. One is Applause, and the other one people are not sure of. I know you can't judge a song just from a few seconds, but from what I heard of Applause it sounds bad, sadly. The same goes to the other snippet.

TheJoker138 posted:Pop stars in general are make up slathered and "perfect" any time they are seen in any shots that are not released by the paparazzi while they're out buying groceries or whatever. In that context that photo does not look like a picture of a pop icon. "I can hardly imagine anyone her age looking less like a pop star" which is a really silly thing to say. I would venture to say that you interact with many many people on an everyday basis who look far less like a pop star for their age than Lady Gaga out of makeup. It's silly that this has drawn out so much but I don't get why every single aspect of a performer has to be unique or special to people. Like, okay, she's got a big nose, but clearly a lot of people find her attractive, in or out of makeup. This obsession with making your favorite artist not just put-upon but the MOST put-upon is really dumb.

It's only 15 seconds but it's very promising. Also vaguely amusing is her little meltdown on twitter about this mini-leak.

Wandle Cax posted:Also vaguely amusing is her little meltdown on twitter about this mini-leak. I think she asked DJWS to leak the snippet and fake their meltdowns on twitter. I mean, she is good at marketing herself and has a strong marketing team, and if the leaker has the full song, why not just leak the whole thing. I found it more amusing that people were retweeting the soundcloud links on Twitter and asking them to be removed.

So first review of the song is up! http://martiantv.com/?p=3402the review posted:It’s hard to follow up a power anthem like Katy Perry’s new single “Roar.” Luckily, Lady Gaga has some wickedly theatrical vocals and a dream production team behind her. Uhhhh. A song with retro feel? This is gonna be interesting.

The irony is that they reportedly moved the release date because low quality leaks were floating around, and now we have a link to an official but still low quality radio rip floating around.

When she says "put your hands up make em touch" - the delivery is insane. My favorite part of the song by far.

I'll admit I wasn't expecting much, it'd be hard to top Bad Romance and I suspect she never will. I was, however, pleasantly surprised by Applause. It's leaps and bounds better than Roar which sounds like something Selena Gomez should sing. I never got largely into the Born This Way album and hearing her sort of go back to a real dancey vibe is pretty awesome.

It's up on iTunes now, and I bought it because it's definitely trending back toward what made Fame Monster so drat good. I'm hyped for this album way more now. Also, I listened to that new Katy Perry song, it's really annoying, and I barely got halfway through it. It just sounded so cheesy and 80's awful empowerment ballad mixed with the sound of a song that would have been popular around the time Hey, Soul Sister came out.

According to iTunes there will be both a clean and explicit version of the new album, unlike Born This Way. I'm glad to hear that; I'm pretty on-board with almost anything Gaga does but trying to be taken seriously as an artist and then letting other people censor her work so her CDs can be sold in Walmart would make even me shake my head.

Haifisch posted:At least they're doing it right this time around, unlike Fame Monster(which had the explicits released months after the fact) and Born This Way(which never got an explicit version). I'm kind of baffled that you'd do it any other way these days, since services like iTunes and Amazon make it easy to pick which version you want. I read somewhere that the issue with Born This Way was Gaga and her producers censored it themselves before the final mastering was done, so there never was a mastered explicit version. Not sure if that's true.

Applause has a drat catchy chorus but the rest of the lyrics are a hot mess. I was hoping ARTPOP would recall the greatness of The Fame Monster, not distance itself even further from it.

Normally, songs about how much singers/bands like their fans don't really do it for me, but this one is fun. And her voice in the verses is really awesome. I'll agree that it's not the strongest Gaga song ever, but that doesn't worry me. I actually thought that "Born This Way" was the weakest song on its album. I have pretty high hopes for ARTPOP at this rate.

There is a GIANT fight between Katy and Gaga stans to get that #1. It's.....intense. haha. I think Katy will get it, but I dont find Roar to be that great of a song. The general public will decide though!

So I guess plans for ARTPOP being a double album have been canned. I'm guessing the record label balked at the experimental half.
