Lady Gaga - Born This Way + iTunes Festival (Sync tonight 7.40!)

Don't know Fashion(!) of his Love either except I think this is the bonus track i lose my shit to and I need to be a 14 year old twonk queening out to it in Heaven immediately

EDIT: Yes :disco:
 
Bad Kids is absolutely ESSENTIAL :D

it's all about that PROPULSIVE BASSLINE, the NONSENSICAL lyricism ("my parents TRIED / til they got divorced, cos I RUINED THEIR LIVES" :disco:!) and the SUPER STABBY SYNTHS which are like repeatedly being injected with a microdose of CRACK until your arm just fucking FALLS OFF.

'Fashion of his Love' evokes a makeover montage in a straight-to-VHS Christian movie, and I LOVE IT.

I can't describe quite why I like Fashion Of His Love, it doesn't make sense on paper, but I'm going with it.

Fashion of His Love is perfectly nice, but it's clear bonus track material. it's just a sugar rush too far. my teeth are feeling precarious right now (not sure if that's BTW related or a wisdom tooth thing but ya know). and the key change. oh...

I do like that she sprinkled them among the main tracklist though.

I appreciate Gaga's attempt to reclaim TOP GEAR culture for the gays, but it's not for me.

I prefer the Fernando Garibay remix of Fashion of His Love but this version is actually OK too and includes that bit from the Earthquake demo. Maybe the key change in the end is a step too far but it's filled with hooks.
 
Here for Unicorn! My mum sent me a TIKTOK I had to pretend to react to.

How many shits have been lost? ALL I HOPE!

Run run with her twitt
Run run with her tiwtt

Something a bit disney-esque about this one. Very empowering. Very strong.
 
I feel like this is exactly the kind of song that benefits from the lack of attention I pay to lyrics. I imagine they're meaningless nonsense, but the sounds are pretty and compelling and I love it!

Highway Unicorn is not essential, but the chorus is an absolute earworm. the kind of breezy melodic nutrition she could shit out in her sleep back at the turn of the decade. in the verses the horses under the hood are working a bit harder and the engine is sputtering, but I'm still feeling the Americana road trip fantasy (if rural America was populated by mythical gay creatures rather than awful Republicans, natch).

I remember Moopy absolutely LOST. THEIR. SHIT for Heavy Metal Lover and I didn't get it.I just thought she was cute, but that there were at least seven sisters I'd go to first.

I TOTALLY get it now though. That SICK. BEAT. throughout is just *kisses fingers*
 
Whip me slap me, punk funk
New York clubbers, bump drunk
Dark like liquorice, bar slam
Move it, this is your jam
Wash the night, with St. Jam-eson
Like a baptism,
Heavy metal lovers play
Baby we were BORN THIS WAY

it's not your fault. you couldn't help being a justin beiber gay back then. :(
 
We're back to the production that I adore on this album! Also, is there any song that isn't immediately improved with a vocoder?

Heavy Metal Lover (as I'm sure we all know by now) was the last song recorded for the album, like two days before the deadline for pressing CDs or something. just IMAGINE if we never got it. for a long time this was actually my favourite Gaga track - I really was a little wannabe leather slut (in my head only) to this anthem of life.

it's all about the cooing, joyous simplicity of the chorus, the I could be your girl post-chorus, the way it drops out for the vocal refrain and then the last chorus comes STRUTTING BACK IN in its leather chaps. ugh. what a CLASSY BANGER!

but would you love me if I ruled the world?
