'Speechless' is absolutely stunning both lyrically and vocally. I agree that it deserved top 5!

Speechless is lovely and a Gaga album track I still listen to regularly.

I have a feeling Joanne or Million Reasons could be next to go.

Definitely think it’s gonna be a A Star Is Born top 3.

Heaven's not ready for you




06. Joanne // 8.14

Just missing the top 5 - it's Joanne. The title single from Gaga's latest solo studio album, it was given a more acoustic reworking for its single release. The piano version was released as the album's third and final single and it won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Solo Performance at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards. It was inspired by Gaga's late aunt, Joanne Germanotta, and became a focal point for the musical direction of the album. Gaga intended the song to have a healing effect for those dealing with loss and pain and it certainly does as it centres on death and the heartache of loss.

I would be honored if you would take me as I am




05. Is That Alright? // 8.45

We begin the top 5 with another track from ASIB - the film's closing credit number and, for me at least, one of the greatest songs Gaga has ever put her name to. It is about growing old with a loved one and wishing they were there as you die - dark, damning but delivered with such beauty and emotion it is near impossible to not feel a waterfall of emotion as she sings it. Ally paints a picture of her relationship with Jackson and her imperfections, all packaged within a perfect song.

TOO LOW.

I think as time goes on, this is maturing into a top 5 all-time Gaga song for me. Maybe even top 3. Utter perfection.

Joanne is lush.

The fact it won a Grammy too is such a fun fact too!

Is that Alright is gorgeous too.

I’d have loved it to have charted during the time the film was released.

I would've switched ITA and Joanne, but the former is brilliant too!

I just need one good one to stay




04. Million Reasons // 8.5

We return to Joanne for the final time now, with a single that reignited commercial success for Gaga in the US. This was largely due to the Superbowl performance, but also in the fact that it was so wildly different from everything we'd had from Gaga up until that point. It was at that point her slowest, most subdued single and because of this it stood out. It is about heartbreak and hope, but also religion and something greater offering positivity in life. It received a nomination for Best Pop Solo Performance at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards and became a top 10 hit in the US.

BLAH I was hoping MR could be at least top 3.

The top 3 is amazing though so not complaining BUT...

I love MR so much, she delivered several iconic performances too (SB, Victoria's Secret etc)

The top six does prove my point about Joanne being the turning point for Gaga ballads — all deserved.

'Million Reasons' deserves #04 - such a powerhouse of a song and she sounds absolutely amazing on it wub.gif

The top 3 are the rightful top 3 imo

Don't wanna give my heart away to another stranger




03. I'll Never Love Again // 8.79

Receiving a limited release as the album's 3rd single, I'll Never Love Again is the climax of the film. It represents Ally's loss and her ability to refuse everyone that enters her life forevermore. It is a heartbreaking, soul-crashing number with stunning vocals, pure emotion and sheer passion. The soundtrack contains both the film version and an extended version and both tell the final chapter of Ally's story. It was written in the aftermath of her best friend Sonja's death and it was this moment that led to the pain you hear in her vocals throughout the song. A tragic moment of Gaga's life led to this masterpiece.

One of her very best. It's heartbreaking listening to it now we know that she filmed the final scene for ASIB right after Sonja died but it's still a song I'm regularly returning to wub.gif

I love I’ll Never Love Again vocally it’s her best vocal shes recorded in my opinion.

The Gaga solos from A Star Is Born soundtrack are all amongst her absolute very very best.

I’m predicting a Shallow win now although it could be close.
