Donatella & Artpop (album track) are two of her worst

Smithy · 19-03-2019, 08:46 PM

Paper Gangsta ain’t great but there’s worse songs sis!

83. Grigio Girls // Joanne (track 12) // 2016

Youtube video

Lowest-ranked Joanne track

I feel a certain sense of guilt in ranking Grigio Girls second-last out of eighty-four damn songs. It has a beautiful sentiment, devoted to her friend Sonja who has since passed away, and other female pillars in her life, and the above video is a lovely homage for that.

However, I just find that despite the uplifting message of the song, the melody, production, and even Gaga's vocals manage to make Grigio Girls so uninspiring. I must praise the lyricism, but somehow I have never been able to connect with this song, and find it entirely skippable.

Youtube video

Lowest-ranked The Fame track
Lowest-ranked non-single

Even if a song is cringeworthy, basic, or invokes any kind of negative emotion, it still won't go as low as a song that I have simply never connected with. That's the tea with Paper Gangsta... I've just never been able to get into it, and almost always skip it when I play The Fame.

There's potential here, but I find the song incredibly monotonous, and it just kind of trundles along with a repetitive beat and piano chord progression, as well as the same synths she uses throughout the album, but without any dynamism.

I can't even say this is typical first-album pop fodder. It's just an odd, forgettable track.

what the ****

82. Brown Eyes // The Fame (track 13) // 2008

Youtube video

This performance on the Jonathan Ross Show is superior to the album version. Unlike Paper Gangsta, Brown Eyes is typical pop debut fodder, and I'm not here for it. It's a sickly-sweet, prepubescent heartbreak song, and I just find it kinda hard to stomach. Even for a first outing, this is an incredibly weak ballad by Gaga's standards.

TomC · 19-03-2019, 10:41 PM

81. Boys Boys Boys // The Fame (track 11) // 2008

Youtube video

This may cause fumes, but BBB does very little for me. It's a fun, cute little track, and again, typical pop debut shtick, but the best elements of BBB are embodied on far better songs elsewhere on The Fame. BBB for me is just part of the middle-late portion of The Fame that I find really sub-par.

"Love it when you call me eggs, in the morning buy me eggs" is iconic though

80. Americano // Born This Way (track 5) // 2011

Youtube video

Lowest-ranked Born This Way track

On Born This Way, an album filled with abstract concepts and experimental production, Americano feels right at home. It's just...it's not much fun to listen to. I like the concept, but I've never really enjoyed listening to it. AaAaAaAah...AMERICAAA...AMERICANOoOoOoO honestly hurts my ears a bit, and I always feel a sense of relief when the song ends with the gunshot and Hair begins.

79. The Cure // non-album single // 2017

Youtube video

Lowest-ranked single

I remember waking up on that April morning in 2017 and being both stunned and frilled that Gaga had debuted a new single at Coachella. I adored the breezy, summer sound, and thought it was like nothing she'd done before. I had it on repeat for days, I even had it on loop for my 5k in the park

It was also nice for Gaga to have a single with longevity in the UK after PI/MR totally failing at that - The Cure lingered around number 20 for six or seven weeks. However, within weeks I was bored. And here I am, two years later, and for me it's a bottom-ten Gaga song, and certainly the worst single she's released.

Apparently it's a reject from ASIB, but without the narrative and story that each song from the ASIB soundtrack obviously has, The Cure is completely vapid and dull. It's not even a good song, I can't lie. The chorus is very trudgey, the lyrics are excruciatingly plain, and the sample of her near-whistle tone singing that repeats through the chorus is annoying.

I just don't know what she was trying to do here... The Joanne era was going smoothly, so I guess it was just a gift to the fans, and a taste of things to come from the ASIB era. But as a Gaga single, it feels completely devoid of soul.
