Oh I thought I posted that, but's not there.. thanks for posting!

It's nothing new - but everytime she mentions this era it's alongside the pain it took to write it :cry: Grateful for the gift she gave us out of the darkness <3

After initially hammering this when it was first released, I'm finding it's one of my least returned to Gaga albums which I'm quite shocked at :(

What, noooo, I think it's just early days. Let's discuss in two years.

Really!? I'm forever returning to this and even Dawn of Chromatica! I think only Born This Way will top it for albums I return to more but we'll see over the years...

And a few more words on the pain of the recording process

 

"Almost every day that I went into the studio, I didn't want to be there.I used to say: I'm so depressed on a clinical deep level,and I don't want to create anything. During that time,that music didn't make me happy, entertainment or performing didn't make me happy."

 

:(

I don't get why some people are saying she HATES Chromatica. Painful process does not equal hate. The album has a purpose and the songs are meaningful. In coming years she might think it's her most important album!

Overtook The Fame on dance album chart! Wonder what's #1 though..

Oh it's Thundercat's classic album from 2011, thanks to vinyl release

Listening to this again after maybe 3 month break, it sounds SO GOOD :cheeseblock:

Now that enough time has passed, I think I can now say this ranks as her third best solo project for me.

 

Born This Way and The Fame Monster are slightly ahead but this does go off and it’s a very joyous whole listening experience.

I might rank it similarly. It's so hard though, they're so diverse and have lots of memories attached.

Certainly in her top 3 for me too! Possibly top 2 even but it'll never top Born This Way!

Apparently this has sold 169k units in the UK.

Do you know how much Joanne has sold? The last figure I have is 168k ironically.

No that was just one-off on Twitter. Maybe Jay or someone else would have idea.

Replay has overtaken Dancin' in Circles on Spotify - just shows how much her album streams have grown through the years. DIC is over 5 years old, Replay did the same in a bit more 1.5 years.

Also certified platinum in Italy - her first solo album to do so since Born This Way! :dance:

Has it been mentioned that Alice has reached 60 million streams on Spotify? Ping Cdelita!!
