Am I (and Seanman) the only one who can acknowledge the greatness of Marry the Night??

what's wrong with you all?? confused

I said I like it and considered it one of the best ones because of the middle to end (it gets epic on those parts) I’m just not sure if that’s going to be a single but it was supposed to be the first single I heard.. she chose Born this way instead.

I forgot what Highway Unicorn (Road To Love) sound like that's how much I like it lol

These need to be singles

Government Hooker

Scheiße

Bloody Mary

Heavy Metal Lover

Electric Chapel (maybe)

Gaga said she wanted to do a video for black jesus on her twitter and I liked the beat to judas it's not trash just not all that.

I like Marry the night not sure if she's going to release it .

[Edited 5/30/11 13:54pm]

Yeah Judas has a good beat, it's still disjointed as hell though. I would think the next single would be Bloody Mary.

I honestly feel she need to stay away from the religious content for the single after edge of glory I think it should be a future single just not right now. lol who knows though.

Then she picked it up as her next single after "Judas" but decided against it because of the positive response to "The Edge of Glory". I thought it was average the first few listens but I'll be honest the last I heard it I actually have changed my mind on it and it's damn good.

The really BAD ones are "Bad Kids", "Hair" and "Highway Unicorn". I've warmed a little to "Judas" so it's off my "god awful" list but it's average at best.

Ok, I'm fuckin PISSED, I'M FUCKIN ANGRY, I'M FUCKIN' MAD, I'M FUCKIN' MAD AS FUCKIN' HELL mad

from Wikipedia:

However, Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune writes, ""Born This Way" feels rushed – from the cheesy, photo-shopped cover art to the hyperventilating music. It is the sound of a major artist sprinting to please everyone all the time."[69] Los Angeles Times writes, "She’s speaking to everyone, it seems, except fans of artistic innovation. Say what you want about Lady Gaga, but nuance is not one of her strong points, nor is musical adventure. She’s unsubtle in her message, unsubtle in her dress, and, most important, unsubtle aesthetically... If Gaga had only spent as much time on pushing musical boundaries as she has social ones, “Born This Way” would have been a lot more successful."[70] Chris Richards of The Washington Post found it "boring", writing, "Yes, "Born This Way" is a dark, dense and surprisingly aggressive listen... [but] at its worst, it sounds like reheated leftovers from some '80s movie soundtrack."[71] The Boston Globe called the album "the most deflated moment in pop music this year," saying the album lacks cohesion and the songwriting "feels thin." [72] Rich Juzwiak of The Village Voice commented that Gaga's "we-shall-overcome sentiment" is expressed more effectively through the album's "egalitarian use of house beats" than through her "sloganeering", which he found "trite" and "[un]insightful".[66] The Independent gave Born This Way three out of five stars. While complimenting her vocal range, criticised the diversity within the album and stated "the broader she spreads her net musically, the less distinctive her art becomes."[61] Evan Sawdey of PopMatters gave the album a five out of 10 rating and dubbed it "her weakest album to date", commenting that it "fus[es] some daring songwriting with some remarkably repetitive themes and beats"

JESUS H.CHRIST, they are completely wrong disbelief

FUCKIN' JERKS, NOWADAYS ANY ASSHOLE IS A CRITIC...

"Hair" and "Highway Unicorn" grew on me. "Hair' is pretty ridiculous, but its still a classic standard house beat backing a pop tune. The lyrics are what really ruin it, IMO.

Update:

REAL GOOD SONGS:

Schiebe

Marry the Night

Heavy Metal Lover

Bloody Mary

Government Hooker (FUCK IT! I love it now fuck it..! lol

GOOD:

The Edge of Glory

Electric Chapel (that intro = headbang )

You & I (Shania Twain meets Queen meets Def Leppard meets Rascal Flatts...still like it, should be a single in the future)

OKAY:

Judas (it's not as awful as I thought but surely more work needed to be done to it. I still couldn't really get into it but she gets A for effort)

BAD:

Americano (I know she was trying to do camp with this but it got from one extreme to another and I still haven't really warmed up to it. Not awful but definitely skippable)

(Still) HELL NAW:

Born This Way (still don't get how this went to #1 over Judas or even TEOG confused)

Hair (even Clarence can't save this atrocity neutral )

Bad Kids (other than the Michael-inspired intro, no just no)

Highway Unicorn (Gaga, really? Really?)

Fashion of His Love (I don't know why but I just can't get into it, I'm feeling like vainandy does about Whitney lol and it kinda sounds like Only in My Dreams by Debbie Gibson, still don't like it)

Haven't even heard Black Jesus and The Queen yet... neutral

Can you name one song about hair better than GaGa's "Hair" ??

can you? I can't...

It would've been decent if the lyrics were different, I agree. I still can't get into Highway Unicorn though... I don't know why, I just can't. sad

YES . lol The fame was only good for the singles don’t get me wrong I did like the album. I Like It Rough should have been an single and I liked Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say) Starstruck and some others but the Fame Monster was better.
