I LOVEDDD Bc Kindom On This Album His Verse Were Soo Amazinggggg

I don’t know maybe I’m just not a jazz girly so I don’t appreciate the album as much as the others. Although i think “oh when the saints” is a banger. But one thing’s for sure, gaga is able to reinvent herself and that is the reason, why she’s still relevant up to this day. Im looking forward to LG7❤.

i listened to debut but i will listen to this record eventually.

World on a String reminds me of Brown Eyes as well, especially the outro. So beautiful.

Radical Optimism is great. It's easy to listen and teeming with positive energy 🩵

charli xcx and sabrina carpenter are so overrated chappel definitely is the best

chappell.

I guess since she’s trying to be Harley Quinn it works? I thought it was a mess, but I’m also not interested in the joker movie 🤷‍♂️ Didn’t like that she looks like she’s trying to be Haley Williams in the pic Or the stealing of “Salems” aesthetics for their single “capulets”. I also am aware she’s like trying to capture something… it just Nothing about the characters or movie interests me 😅 so it’s just like I think there’s lady Gaga Stan’s who would literally just “yes queen slay 10/10” anything she does And like as an artist it’s like she gave up innovating like a decade ago. Settling for the safety of jazz, rock, and pop, and like this weird altright heterosexual woman she plays in every movie is sort of just It’s clearly all her manager But it’s sad seeing just how much she like fled into the safety of heteronormative art, making edge lord movies for white bros, and only ever playin the gf in an abusive relationship. Like we just deserve better then this How did we go from the fame, born this way, art pop, to… A woman whoes at the peak of her career and only focused on nostalgia

i don't even care what people going to say about this album. For us, Sophie's stans this is like the closing chapter, the lost sounds in our minds. I stream it all day long. Thank you for this interpretation.

Listening to the album, my mind immediately went to Arlene Sorkin singing “say we’re sweethearts again” in BATS, Gaga really captured Harley(:

R.I.P. SOPHIE. She is an icon, and she'll always be. Man, I don’t think I'll ever really wrap my mind around her passing. Everytime I think about it, I'm shot back to the day she died. My mom came in my room mentioning she heard about her premature death on the news. My mom never heard SOPHIE's music, she didn't know I was a fan and just asked if I knew who she was, but she could see the moment my stomach dropped when I shakily asked to see the news article just to confirm my worst suspicions. I'd just finished clumsily producing a track inspired by the controlled chaos of Ponyboy and Faceshopping while anxiously awaiting her new releases, and then she was gone... As for this final album, although this project sounds different than I guess I thought it would, I'm content with what we got. Posthumous releases are always touchy, but I do believe that her family would know best that SOPHIE would want these tracks to be heard. In them, I sense a transitionary evolution of her style, but into what, we'll never know for certain. You're right - it's not a conclusion, because sadly, we'll never get one. But it's likely the closest we'll ever get to knowing more of her creative vision, and I'm thankful for that. Your video speaks to that bittersweetness that comes from reflecting on her legacy as a fan, so thank you. Also, just a note: I noticed when you were talking about RAWWWWWW, I think you used he/him for Jozzy, but she's a woman.

It's true excellence. Katy could never.

Great album❤

Too much theater kid energy for my taste

Before Die with a smile, I thought that lady gaga was fake and just fell off but here she is still making hits

I agree with every word of this review. For me, 4 albums have, musically, changed my life: Iron Maiden's Piece of Mind Bob Dylan's Bringing It All Back Home Burning Witches' Witch of the North and Lana del Rey's Did You Know There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Boulevard?

"This record was never meant to be the pinnacle of her journey, it was always going to exist as a page in a book that sadly is never going to be finished" and that's whats so heartbreaking about it all. We never got a Bjork style evolution with her. A backcatalog of decades of hits and misses. Just a triumphant debut and some intriguing decent tracks to cap it off. SOPHIE forever<3

Imagine wanting to be an artist and becoming a gay icon just like that

Wanted a grungy popga album but I’m not shocked she went with jazz cuz that’s her thing now I’ll have an eye out for lg7 since her last two projects were terrible

Snoozefest

I just had an awful conversation with some ‘experimental music enjoyer’ who shit on this album and i’ve been feeling a lot of anger about that, so your fair but totally emotionally informed assessment of this is just what I needed to hear. I love that you share this feeling about sophie, thank you!

as both a gaga and harley/dc fan i’m so torn bc i genuinely feel she’s not going to do a good job, not bc she’s a bad actress but bc harley’s character in this new movie does not seem like it will give her justice,,, her character is butchered most of the time and is usually just watered down to a manic pixie dream girl on meth

The other day I was thinking about how will Gaga's Jazz career or album would go after the passing of Tony Bennett. sure she performs Jazz show at her vegas residency but I'm so glad getting this album as it answers my big question and she delivers it very well.

Smile was such a gorgeous cover, I don’t know how she went on about when doing the cover but I can imagine that she was thinking about Tony Bennett. It felt like a full circle moment of being a fan, to a having a duet with him, to this song just as a love letter to him

It was so hard for me to enjoy this album as it came out on my birthday 9/26 which also happened to be the day Lana Del Rey slapped me across the face and got married which completely blindsided me and overshadowed Gaga’s album for me. I am now getting into the album again and really enjoying it!

LADY RAVEN MENTIONED GAG

1989 was THE album that cemented Taylor Swift as an A-List Celebrity and a Pop Star icon. She definitely was on the radar with her Fearless and Speak now. Red absolutely elevated her status. But 1989 was THE album that cemented her, dare I say, reputation. I love this album to death

I dig this record, the great American songbook for 2020’s. I love her voice and this is a very smart rollout.

i understand people maybe not liking the direction of this album, but i really REALLY hate how people are directing the hate to her family. we knew sophies vision for this album for yeaaarrrs, she played almost all of these songs live and people on album of the year still have the nerve to go "BENNY BUTCHERED SOPHIES VISION! SHE WASNT INVOLVED IN MOST OF THESE TRACKS!". anyways, small rant, but i love this album, and seeing people hate on it because it isn't structured like a traditional album just shows how innovative she was, and adds to her statement of not believing in the album format

I still miss her so much. There will be NO ONE like her. I was completely devastated when I heard she passed.

this album was a favorite personally. Her vocals were so good, maybe even some of her best!

6;00… OMG I totally remember that!!! Lol, good times.😂

I can’t lie, I’m currently kind of scared to listen to this album. I fell in love with her music so deeply, her death felt devastating to experience as a fan of her truly one of a kind styles, Immaterial from Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides was a huge part of my recognition of my non-binary gender identity, and has inspired so many stories I’ve planned over time. As much as her legacy will live on and has continued after the accident that took her life, what should be a comma feels like a period. Like a part of her legacy ends when I finish this album, and that feels a little painful to consider. Because even if the rest of that legacy continues, I hate the feeling that even a portion of it must end.

This album is really cute! The two original songs stick out a lot for me, and my favorite is definitely Happy Mistake (feels like a real Gaga ballad). It's nothing I'd have on repeat, but I did enjoy it as a one time listen. I am going to see Joker 2 in theaters with my friend, and this album has me excited for what is in store

For me personally I am not a fan of this album I didn’t enjoy any of the songs and it’s not for me but I still am very excited for lg7

I'm not really a huge jazz fan but I really enjoyed this album. I was really reminded of Amy Winehouse for some reason idk maybe because she's the only jazz/jazz adjacent artist I listen to (speaking of Amy I hope you will eventually cover Back To Black because that's one of my top 3 favorite albums of all time) but I also kinda cried a little the first time I heard it because it really reminded me of her work with Tony Bennett and I know how close they were so it made me a little emotional. I think I would give it the same score you did or maybe a little higher because I really enjoyed it

I cannot stress enough how much I love this album and how genius I think it really is. The storytelling is impecable and IMO it contains some of her best vocal moments to date. Also, Happy Mistake’s gotta be one of her best ballads, so vulnerable.

You dissected this so well! Live in my truth made me feel like I was dancing with her

This album is so good daddy 😍

1:55 As a queer they, i really love Harlequin album. But it's probably because my mom was a hippie and mostly played jazz/soul/blue-grass while I was growing up

the fact that her "scratching an itch" produces results most of her contemporaries could never dream of speaks volumes on her talent

i love this video and era, both so playul and light. One thing: BetterHelp really is not that great of a partner (even if the general premise is awesome) but there are reports that suggest that anyone can enter as a therapsit there and it is insanely expensive with sometimes people (therapists) just not appearing for what theyre being paid for. It really bums me that a concept so great is not actually realized properly.

Gaga gets it: the world is her stage ❤.

GIIIIIRRRRL, THIS ALBUM NO ONE NEEDS IS ABSOLUTE🗑 WHO IS THIS ALBUM EVEN FOR? NO NO NO NO! NO ONE IS ACTUALLY GOING TO PLAY THIS🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️🤦🙅‍♂️🙅‍♀️🙅

Sadly not much of a jazz fan, so the album was a miss :(

These songs aren’t in the movie if I understood correctly , this is a companion album, not the actual soundtrack

i am going to see joker i love this album. i will play it on Saturday when I'll be cleaning my room. My fav tracks are: Oh, When the Saints, that's Entertainment, The Joker, close to You

Folie a Deux deserves at least an Oscar nomination and I would go as far as to say she deserves Best Song for Folie.

I loved the album specially Folie A Deux

oh u do GET IT
