Umm, okay then.

 

ANYway, I can't help but feel this song will be underwhelming at first like BTW was, although that did grow on me. Heres hoping this does the same, Gaga

never does manage to live up to the hype.

Queen Kylie has spoken. *.* Die Kath.

I don't see how these images are alike at all. Minaj is painted randomly while GaGs' make-up seems to be way more thought out.

 

GaGa haters just try to pick on anything. 'OH SHE USED THE WORD WANT IN BAD ROMANCE MADONNA USED IT A MILLION TIMES SHE COPIED MADONNA AND EVERYONE ELSE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY EVAHHH!!1'

Nobody was comparing 'Bad Romance' to Madonna tho. The Madonna comparisons have obviously always been there "nu-Madonna" when she first burst onto the scene etc... but I think they got blown up at the time 'Born This Way' was released (and you can definitely see why). I get you used your post in a sarcastic sense, but it annoys me when GaGa fans think Madge fans are attacking her for her work prior to BTW, when it's not the case at all, is it? :unsure:

 

ANYWAY. The cover is OK, just very, VERY creepy :\ Sort of like The Joker from Batman.

Ouch that cover could be the cover of some creepy horror movie!

 

If she would appear near me with that make-up on, I'd most likely knuckle her down and then run for me life!

it's ironic that everyone hates the first piece of cover art that gaga's done that actually makes her look creative.

!!!!!!!

How can we even tell what it'll be like though?

We don't, but IMO the hype never normally lives up to the actual product, not just with Gaga either.

From Rolling Stone:

Music: Lady Gaga: New Single Is 'Full of Happiness'

Although details about Lady Gaga's upcoming new single are scarce, the singer has started dropping hints about the song, "Applause," which is due out on August 19th. "I'll tell you that it is very fun," Gaga told Women's Wear Daily. "And that it's full of happiness, because what I'm saying in the song essentially is that I live for the applause. I live for the way you cheer and scream for me. Give me that thing that I love. Put your hands up, make them touch."

 

The tune is from Gaga's forthcoming album ARTPOP, an project she's had plenty of time to focus on since a hip injury earlier this year forced her to cancel a chunk of her Born This Way Ball Tour. The singer used the setback as an opportunity to evaluate her new material with her Haus of Gaga crew. "I had six months to beef up my brain and my body," Gaga told. "I was given the time to really be creative because it's a gazing process, it really is. I have to gaze into the work for long periods of time for it to be good. I have that feeling, that wonderful feeling, when me, Inez [Van Lamsweerde]and Brandon [Maxwell] look at each other and we go, 'It's so good. That's the one.'"

The hip injury – which forced Gaga to cancel 22 shows – was more severe than she previously admitted. "My injury was actually a lot worse than just a labral tear," Gaga said. "I had broken my hip. Nobody knew, and I haven't even told the fans yet. But when we got all the MRIs finished before I went to surgery there were giant craters, a hole in my hip the size of a quarter, and the cartilage was just hanging out the other side of my hip."

 

She continued, "I had a tear on the inside of my joint and a huge breakage. The surgeon told me that if I had done another show I might have needed a full hip replacement. I would have been out at least a year, maybe longer."

 

Gaga, who worked with DJ White Shadow on "Applause," also talked about a handful of other collaborations, including one with Robert Wilson for her upcoming gig headlining the MTV Video Music Awards on August 25th. She also discussed working with the performance artist Marina Abramovic and the painter and sculptor Jeff Koons. "[i'm not] defined by the same designer or defined by the same hair cut or defined by the same icon. The statement is that I'm not one icon. I'm every icon," Gaga said. "I'm an icon that is made out of all the colors on the palette at every time. I have no restrictions. No restrictions."

 

ARTPOP is set for a November 11th release.

Horrendous artwork, Far to artsy but then again that is the title of the album so I guess it fits. My main concern is the music, I just hope she is taking herself far too seriously this time around.

Only Lady GaGa could get near on four pages of discussion about a single cover.

 

I hope the song is actually good, I hated Born This Way and You And I but I loved The Edge Of Glory and Marry The Night

So not an Emeli Sandé Clown-style single then!

She could never do something as fab.

I literally just brought Madge into it because I know she's been on stage since like WWI. No back thought or anything. What u on Jonhoe

The artwork isn't so much BAD as... at odds with what she should be aiming to achieve with this campaign. The other promo images were so natural, and really portrayed a woman who knew what she was doing with great pop (the one where she sits on the electronic equipment in particular was marvellous, symbolising her working with the production and so on while still showing off how pretty she can be). The marketing looked 100% on point. But this is completely different and the public are just going to see Lady Pretentious 2.0 here. Seems like "one step forward, two steps back".
