Lady Gaga - The Chromatica Era

That was only HALF of it. This is the first half:

The symbol for Chromatica has a sine wave in it, which is the mathematical symbol for sound, and it’s from what all sound is made from, and, for me, sound is what healed me in my life period, and it healed me again making this record, and that is really what Chromatica is all about. It’s about healing and it’s about bravery as well and it’s really like, when we talk about love I think it’s so important to include the fact that it requires a ton of bravery to love someone.

BloodPop® [who executive produced Chromatica with Lady Gaga] brought it up, and we talked about how Chromatica was essentially on its own when you first look at it, it seems to be about colors and all the different colors and also music is made of a chromatic scale, you know? So it’s all the colors, all the sounds, you know, so we, we’re talking about inclusivity and life and also a lot of what we see around us and what we’re experiencing is math, which is very much like music and and sound is math as well. So we talked about that, and then I sort of went back and I said, “OK, well, yeah, it’s inclusivity but it's really a way of thinking,” you know, it's not just, “Oh, Chromatica, we’re being inclusive with all the colors, all the people,” and when I say, “All the colors, all the people,” I mean way more than we could possibly fathom.

To be honest, it makes more sense than doing some hideous rainbow vinyl thing. They always look awful.

I mean I would have gone for PINK seeing as that's the main color for this campaign. I'm sure there will be an Urban Outfitters exclusive anyway.

It's fucking silly now. I was just reading about the new Jarvis Cocker album - black vinyl, orange vinyl, clear vinyl, some with a live CD and some not...I see Gags has gone for three different cassettes! Even Emma Bunton only did TWO (I think).

Was there a color Billie Eilish DIDN'T have for her album?

Didn’t we get all this meaningless coked-up blather and guff before ‘ARTPOP’? Mind you, ‘Mary Jane Holland’ :disco::disco::disco:
 
allegedly the 2nd single is with Ariana and the video will be shot by Robert Rodriguez - the song might be (but probably isn't) called Rain On Me

Since the initial leak, my wig has been M.I.A.

I am deliberately walking to meetings this week, so that I can maximize the number of times I can play Stupid Love on repeat.
 
One such message led Gaga to collaborate with a fellow female pop star, who has similarly experienced immense trauma while in the public eye. Their song together is a monster of a dance tune, but its message is about submitting yourself to devastation ("It's coming down on me, water like misery") — a flawless dance floor crier as a "celebration of all the tears," Gaga describes. "I sat with her and we talked about our lives. It's two women having a conversation about how to keep going and how to be grateful for what you do."

From start to finish, Chromatica is firmly rooted in classic house, with crisp, clubby dance breaks that all sound like they're competing with each other to be the biggest on the tracklist. Sonically, it's perhaps Gaga's most focused, consistent album to date, with all these producer contributions laddering up to the same fearless electronic tapestry, weaving in unruly breakbeat outros, emotional power-pop melodies that send a dopamine rush through the brain and tons of slick, shiny synths. You can weep to these songs just as much as you can sweat to them, and Gaga seems to be encouraging both at once.

well it sounds like the greatest album of all time so no pressure at all, Gags
 
Confirmed/mentioned songs

Stupid Love
Free Woman
Rain on Me (feat. Ariana Grande) (prod. Boyz Noise & Max Martin)
Babylon
Six Feet Under
Chances
Feels So Good

Lyrics to Free Woman: "Can I feel free on my own? Do I need to be loved in order to feel like I've conquered it all?"
 
Gaga swerving all taste levels, self-restraint and word count limits is the Gags I've been missing. I might even finally listen to the last album, just to douche my palate.
 
Mesopotamia has decided to stan!!

The instrumental is great. The arrangement is...questionable.
 
I can't believe this hook-nosed bitch is allegedly delaying the only thing keeping gays on life support in Q1 2020!

But forgetting abut homophobic hate crimes for a sec, Babylon sounds like Venus's Oscar-winning little sister. Total nonsense, but all the while iconic, amazing, showstopping, and utterly jawdropping.

BABBLE ON, BABYLON :disco:

The scheduled release date is my 34th birthday, which looks likely to be spent locked indoors. I'm praying to Aunt Joanne in Heaven that I at least get some messy gay bops, in lieu of any other present.
