Posted March 20Mar 20 With MAYHEM firmly in our hands now and an understanding of the content of it in relation to its title, let's look back at the names of Gaga's projects.Rank the album names from favourite to least favourite - think about how the names reflect the content of the albums and what power they have for you now as the title of each project.Remember you are ranking the TITLE of each album not the MUSICThe FameThe Fame MonsterBorn This WayARTPOPJoanneChromatica Harlequin MAYHEM
March 20Mar 20 Author I'm going to have a think about this more thoroughly but ARTPOP is really a clever title and fits that era so well - the subversion of the normal way of doing things (and not forgetting the abbreviation she created: ARTISTIC REVOLUTION THROUGH the POTENTIAL OF POP )

March 29Mar 29 They’re all quite striking as titles but if I was to rank on titles alone I think I’d sayThe Fame Monster The FameBorn This WayMAYHEMARTPOPHarlequinChromaticaJoanne There’s not an awful lot in it really. The Fame Monster I think is so striking especially that early within her career and the music fully encuplates both The Fame and Monster aspects (especially as a UK Gaga stan who sees it as a deluxe). Joanne isn’t a bad title and I see why it was chosen BUT titles wise from what’s on the album I think Diamond Heart or Angel Down are even more striking. Sinners Prayer too actually!Oh maybe another idea is to rename her albums with another track on that album😅
