I don't want anything remotely pop/rock or even edgy. I really want her to show her fun side again ala The Fame. Actually no, a few edgy tracks would be nice but she really needs a few light hearted songs. I don't like her constant claims of attempting to revolutionise pop :s

Completely agree. There is a reason Rihanna and Katy are doing better than her at the moment and that's because they don't take themselves too seriously. 'Born This Way' is a GOOD album but it takes itself way too seriously, due to Gaga, as you say 'attempting to revolutionise pop' - fair enough if it's meaningful ballads with profound lyrics, then sure, then the music and lyrics should be taken seriously, but the kind of pop she came out with was not that at all. People don't want to have to take upbeat pop music seriously. Pop music is known for being fun and for one of the top 5 major players in the pop music field right now, she made a record that just wasn't fun enough for the general public to buy into.

Don't get your hopes up.

Anyway, Katy, Rihanna, Britney, Nicki etc. are all doing 'fun generic pop' fine, we don't need Gaga too.

You have a point about her taking herself too seriously, I agree, but people have to remember that her audience is totally different to Katy Perry's and Rihanna's, it's much older, she appeals to a wider audience, and that's down to her sound being more mature, as well as people knowing she has the talent to back herself up (unlike others).

 

I disagree about the album not being 'fun' enough for the public to buy into. It was never going to perform as well as The Fame/Monster did (as much as she hyped the album up), and I think the single choices didn't help personally. Born This Way was the perfect first single, but then it should've been The Edge of Glory, (ALBUM RELEASED HERE) Scheiße, Heavy Metal Lover, Marry The Night and Judas. Infact, there's a handful of fun pop songs on the album, but because they aren't generic club bangers, with lyrics about dancing in clubs, sex and getting wasted, they're labelled as 'not being fun'.

I hope the new album has a mix of the fun and pop Gaga (Tracks like Eh Eh!) as well as some darker ones. I'm not really bothered but I just want it to be great! :D
I still think Born This Way is an astonishing pop album and the best of last year, but she really just needs a SINGLE that is up to the epic heights of 'Poker Face' or 'Bad Romance', singlewise there was not one song close to those on there but I think as a whole it's far better than The Fame and The Fame Monster.

It's confirmed by these tweets

Release date: 23th June, 2013.

 

also she said that she's in less serious mood and that album will sound like that. YES.

 

 

23rd June 2013?

 

Almost a year :( Quite like the title though.

Alright title. Don't love it, don't hate it.

If the album's released in June, then we might be getting 2 singles before the album again. Hopefully we get it sooner though.

 

She's also announced that "she'll be stealing the VMAs limelight" after not receiving any nominations. I wonder what she's got planned...

Sorry, but I really dislike that title :( But, yay for the less serious stuff, her 2nd album really let me down and pretty much lost me as a fan, because it did feel like she was taking herself too seriously.
It does seem a bit of shit title, but I presume that the picture isn't the album cover, as to me it looks like it was just taken on her webcam!

I think that's obvious.

 

I like the title! It already sounds more fun and less pretentious than Born This Way.

I think 'ArtPop' sounds like it could be the title of one of those legendary albums that everyone remembers from someone like David Bowie. I love it, but I think it sounds even more pretentious than Born This Way. :(
To me, it sounds like what she is promising. Still expressive (as in art) but undeniably fun and 'pop'.

Really? I agree, it sounds more fun but calling the music on the album 'art' sounds very pretentious to me.
