[@Dimasterim]

I really like Applause as the closing track because it summarizes a lot of the themes of the album and I think it musically and lyrically feels like a credits song. If ARTPOP was a movie and every song represented a scene, Gypsy would be the climax and resolution, and Applause would be the credits song and post-credit scene.

[@manuelirvingzarate]

Diego Díaz Bilbao paws down little monster.

[@OG1506]

applause was also about how she felt encouraged to come back to music after she broke her hip by knowing that there were people who love and appreciate her art i.e. applause

[@ChazSweatshirt]

Okay I hated it until thinking about it like this... that's fierce

[@TenisJr]

I get it, but Gipsy FEELS like the ending of the album. The way that it ends, should be how it all shoud have ended. I myself always forget that it isn't the closing song.

[@DARQAURA]

I think MANiCURE would definitely fit as a credits song. Gypsy should've been the ending song and I feel like Applause should've been either the opening track or the track before Gypsy.

[@faustovalcarlos]

you missed a big point and it's that gaga's manager left her before the release of the album, and also the sxsw performance was at the end of the era almost... she was so tired of everything, the album, the press, her record label... it was a scream for help.

I hope not "divorced" due to some lyrics "...I have heard enough of these voices", "...May be it's time for us to say goodbye". It's a very sad record to me, the subtext is VERY sad but on the surface it's fun (like in life). Joanne was not that nostalgic really. Chromatica is akin to lamenting a lover or something. I know something more of course...

[@kalospsofos]

ARTPOP imo is a masterpiece, I love every song on the album (BTW a solo version of Do What U Want exists and its even better than the original)

[@princerein08]

I came here to say this about Do What U Want - the solo version is by far the superior version and you should give it a listen.

[@jimarteri8239]

Her fans were not ready for an experimental album

[@Delaneyisbraindead]

It truly is! I remember loving it then finding out that it was considered a “flop”, I was shocked and confused.

[@tychenofficial]

I feel like Applause as the closing track feels very much like an encore. But ugh this album was so underrated. I wish Do What U Want was never done with R. Kelly and it was done with Christina Aguilera in the first place. I feel like if Gaga and Xtina had done a video, it would’ve helped propel the album further.

[@samperry1443]

This!!

[@soaribb32]

The solo version is The best tho

[@IrishFriendsFan]

It hurts my soul thinking about it. How undisbutably legendary it would have been if she'd done it with Christina or any other stigmatised female artist for the original track

[@RealDylanVolkTV]

She should've done the song with Trey Songz. Much more relevant and sounds just like R. Kelly

[@tychenofficial]

@@RealDylanVolkTV I’ve always felt, even in 2013, that since this song was about female empowerment through reclaiming their sexuality, that featuring a male artist in the song undermined the message. I’ve always HATED R. Kelly’s verse since it diverged so much from Gaga’s message with the song.

[@shalitababy5068]

omg why did I get chills when the Stupid Love part started

[@giuseppediluca4066]

Because Gaga, like the real one, is back

[@kenalexandremeridi]

Because the setup of the narration in the video preyed on your/our nostalgic fanaticism for 'Lady GaGa'™- the pop icon. The idea that the world's, arguably, biggest pop star was waning in her pop culture celebrity stature that she had skyrocketed to the top of- just a few years before Artpop (that we as fans got to gloriously witness) was coming to an end and that we won't ever get another glimpse of that gaga in her pop prime again is a mournful and scary thought. A gagaless would be a boring world, and being aware of that reality is reflected in that little pause before stupid loves plays around 17:57. It invokes that feeling of something great closing to end like when you graduate high school or sumn.

ARTPOP is the reason I BREATHE. Cut open my chest and you'll find copies of the record where my LUNGS should be

[@Gagafreak92]

No matter how impactful "Chromatica" will become, I will always remember "ARTPOP" as the album that changed my life the most. My five favorite songs of the album are 1. Swine: Not because of her performances for this song, but for the reason she wrote it. It helped me to scream out my mental pain, caused by sexual abuse. 2. ARTPOP: Besides the mysterious vibes, combined with Gameboy-sounds and melancholic strings in its instrumental, it helped me to unterstand that everything is connected and "could belong together". The influence of the song on my thoughts and my actions was leading me to another path in my life to cure my depressions and my burned-out soul by starting to paint. It also changed my perspectives on life itself. 3. Venus: It's funky, it's catchy, it's epic, it's the anthem to Aphrodite and even self-confidence ("Don't you know, my A$$ is famous"). It's an explosion of art, Greek culture and mythology. Everything combined in one song. 4. Gypsy: The vibes of this song are emotional af. I feel happy, but also with tears in my eyes, tears full of wanderlust. I wanna see and learn from the world, I want to feel like I'm a part of the entire planet, not only like a part of German society in the middle of nowhere. But as an introvert, who's afraid of humanity and who has no experiences with traveling, it always feels like there's a gigantic wall, I can't manage to climb. I love nature and I'd love to explore mountains, forests volcanoes, beaches, caves, jungles, deserts, oceans and seas. That's why, whenever I hear the song, my happiness is filled with tears, knowing that someday I'll may be able to climb the giant wall of fears and worries. 5. G.U.Y.: Not because of the song itself, but its ARTPOP-film music video. It shows how Gaga was used by her old management to be a moneymaking machine and when she was in pain (that time when her hip broke), the management dropped her off like she isn't useful any longer. But she raised up again, like a phoenix from the ashes, to get back her ARTPOP-era and finish the era like a boss. Back in these times, I was in a similar situation, where the only two things I've known were my couch and my work. So Gaga inspired me to change something, to take back my life like a boss, because it's my life, not the life of society or money. And looking back on that, I'm still very proud to have taken this step.

@@smithjoe8300 stolen comment alert 🚨

[@bastiansartpop2235]

There is a common theme with criticism on ARTPOP: people just don't get it. Like, for real, every time someone criticizes ARTPOP i hear them say "i don't get this/that". The weird thing is I truly believe that i get it. I listen to the album and there is nothing that seems off to me. It feels cohesive, especially knowing what the songs are actually about and the mental state, gaga was in at that time. People say it's too over the place, while I say, it's just the right amount of diverse while still making sense. It's over the top, of course, but if you listen closely, you can feel how all the trashiness is a wall she built around the pain she had to go through at that time. She took her sadness and turned it into art. And again, i truly believe you can hear that! In the video you said, you didn't get if she was sincere or sarcastic wich confused you, but again, it totally makes sense to me. Cause life is not one thing or the other: even if you're being cynical, there is still some sort of truth behind it. The ugly truth behind the colorful mask. And THAT is ARTPOP for me. It is real and emotional while being extremely abstract. And that is what art is. I feel like people didn't care enough to dig that deep, because they consume music. They're not listening, just consuming. And i truly believe, that you can't consume ARTPOP.

[@OYJluv]

And this is what makes it timeless and it has aged better thant her whole discography

Seriously, I don't care if it's messy or whaterever, I care about the songs in it and they're all great. I also think that the 3 singles were the right ones, what made things didn't work was that DWYU didn't had an official video, but I understand the reasons why she eventually cancelled it.

[@smoxisha]

thank you for this! couldn't agree more ❤️

[@pulsedancer2006]

Well said. As a longtime gaga Stan we just have to accept that some people will just not get it. One thing about being a fan of hers has taught me is that everything in life can and deserves to be thought of ‘too deeply’ and…some people just haven’t realized that yet. You should check out an old blog ‘Gaga Stigmata’ they weren’t afraid of ‘thinking too deeply’ when it came to her work

[@briankrosky3567]

I need a DDD on Lady Gaga! She’s one of the most influential artists of all-time. Also, potential hot take here: I think that Bad Romance is the greatest pop song of all time (man or woman I guess). every time I listen to the song, with where she was at the top of the music mountain at that time, the structure of the song, the vocals, and EVERYTHING. Maybe I’m just really biased and I’m sure you can make a case Madonna deserves that title, but I think Bad Romance is the greatest pop song of all time.

[@lostchromatician1694]

Yes yes and yes I completely agree with you. I think Bad Romance is the best pop song ever done, it's literally my favourite song of all time I have yet to hear something as incredible, beautiful and eargasmic as Bad Romance let's not to forget the music video which elevated the song into beyond pop excellence.

[@samperry1443]

[@LC-iz9xm]

She didn't release another duets album with tony Bennett it was just the one. Good video though, I think overall the biggest problem was the confusing and muddled release of it. Alot of the rollout seemed rushed and unfinished. Plus she promoted it as this high concept fusion of art and pop when really it's just a fun album of camp EDM with alot of the visuals being inspired by classical and modern art, and if she'd made that clear I think the general public would've been more on board. The music really was great and fans look back on it fondly nowadays.

[@crysokay4004]

It's not a flop! It's just under-appreciated within the pop-sphere. Which kind of makes sense! It's a rock opera! It's a concept album, not an edm album regardless of how much edm is on there! It's an epic journey and no one can tell me different.

I think the mess of management that was occurring during the ARTPOP era contributed to its “flop’ but out of all her albums, ARTPOP is the one I’ve listened to the most. And if you have not listened to the album with headphones do yourself a favor and do it! You get to hear so much more detail and depth in the music.

[@dana.1546]

And the music is incredible. Do yourself another favor and listen to all the ARTPOP songs instrumental versions. They're all on KZbin and they're incredible. I didn't love Applause the way I do now until I listen to the instrumental (same goes for G.U.Y. or Venus). ARTPOP was not as successful as Gaga's previous albums because (like with Madonna's Erotica I guess) people focussed more on the controversies and on anything but THE MUSIC. So typical of us human beings.

[@AntonisSideras]

Amazing review putting everything into perspective. ARTPOP is my favourite Gaga album and Applause is my all-time favourite Gaga song (so far)! I loved ARTPOP because I am also an artist and I know that your best work comes when you take risks and push yourself. However taking risks doesn't always work and I think this is what we saw in the ARTPOP era - the excitement and experimentation perhaps blinkering Gaga's vision and context. It also didn't help that her own management kept trying to step in and ruined Venus which would've been a killer video clip. I'm also gutted that the Xtina version of Do What U Want was not added to the album as I thought it was far superior to the R Kelly version because of the concept. Aura and Gypsy could've been incredible singles, but then again ARTPOP was not about the singles. It was about creating a framework bringing people together from all walks of life to celebrate art, music and love. PS: Really excited for Chromatica! 💖💖💖

If u don’t like ARTPOP is just bc u don’t understand the album. Such a MASTERPIECE.

[@Natizilda1]

When you say you don't understand if she wants to be sincere or sarcastic in this album... I think that's part of art! Art can be sarcastic as well as it can be sincere. I don't think it deviates from the album's concept. Loved the analysis, Gaga's albums are usually very solid and interesting to review.

ARTPOP is my favorite album ever. That said, this was a fair reviewi I'm new to this channel but I ant to say thank you for making this video. Its nice to see Gaga's early work reviewed objectively, respectfully, and thoughtfully for a change (instead of getting mocked in what is disguised as a "review".) Also thanks for making this since it got me really pumped for Chromatica XD

Glad to see someone not bashing ARTPOP

[@lucastecala.4903]

Didn't know this channel, but loved this video? I'm a self-and-gaga-aware little monster ever since Just Dance, and since the infamous release of ARTPOP in 2013, I've endured (and in some instances endorsed) some harsh criticism on the album and Gaga. But also have seen multiple people and publications just using it as an excuse to be flat-out mean to Gaga and release some sort of spite for her daring to achieve that level of fame. This one is not that at all. This video is a rare instance in which the author while being realistic about ARTPOP's flaws, contradictions, and fragilities, remained objetive in recognizing the great bits and pieces you can find in there. WELL DONE. Subscribed!

ARTPOP is the greatest album of all time..

[@wernerpfennig770]

You have no idea how i love the way you make videos like this. Massive kudos to you man

[@polaris7346]

i totally love this album by the queen! it's actually my favorite followed by the first two. i only have two complaints. 1. she should've picked other singles to go with applause. like venus (whose themes heavily rooted throughout a lot of the performances and album cover), aura, fashion!, gyspy, and so forth. 2. if the chorus of a song is "do what you want with my body," then idk why you'd try to collaborate with a sex offender lmao. either a solo version, or the special version gaga recorded with christina aguilera should've been on the album. two strong women with equally strong voices that have faced sexual assault and have been chewed out by the public.

i have loved this art piece since she did all that she did for it. honestly amazing and great appreciation from a die hard fan for such great content on a wonderful record.

[@HungVu-ec3jk]

ARTPOP is Gaga's own "hyperpop", the exaggeration of what her signature brand of pop is. And it's great

[@Imnotbrian28]

This was a really well done analysis and recap/history lesson for those who weren’t listening to artpop back then! This was an era that contributed so much to my life in 2013/2014 and my hat is off to you sir for doing it justice!

[@cindybb5253]

ANIMAL CROSSING AND ARTPOP YEAH I SUBBED

[@NoOneAskedReviews]

ARTPOP is my favorite album and the song is possibly my favorite Gaga song ever

[@Pedro-gk7ol]

"the only one thing holding Perfect Illusion back for being a huge hit is the fact that is the song Perfect Illusion" LMAAOOOOOOO HAHAHAHA you had me with that one, not gonna lie

[@mcenkakbostanci2735]

ARTPOP never gets old it feels like it's still new

[@voldemortsshampoo4551]

6:44 a small correction: the girl isn't a model, she is a british performance artist called Millie Brown, and the mysterious green liquid is coloured milk

[@danybf99]

Coming from someone who has loved Gaga for a decade now, this is a spot-on video and critique, really really good. Would love to hear your thoughts on Chromatica

[@JoeSnoe126]

This review is hilarious you did a great job roasting and respecting Gaga
