I dont get all the gwen comments. I like Gwen but Gaga's album is way different, more pushing on the dance side of things and more experimental than Gwen's album. I don't see the simmilarities

No way is The Fame more experimental than LAMB... :heehee: It's actually very samey. Half the songs re-use the verse structure from Just Dance.

LAMB is far more poppy amd mainstream than The Fame. Despite some of the samey production.

 

I like both very much, I just dont see why they are being compared to eachother

My only gripe with this record is how similar some of the tracks are...

 

It is very similar to LAMB, you cannot deny it.

I don't get it , at all :wacko: and I do own LAMB

Brown Eyes is my favourite track actually... I love the departure.

It seems you are one of the very few who doesn't see the similarities. Pretty much all the forums I have seen are comparing it some way. This album is pretty much everything TSE should have been.

To me LAMB is a softer version of The Fame. LAMB is more poppy, The Fame is harder. And vocally Gaga is superior. Whilst I can see a mild similarity I dont recall Gwen recording anything in the style of "just dance", "poker face" etc. Seriously, there is nothing on LAMB like those tracks. maybe the slower tracks? I could "paparazzi" being compared to "cool". And both albums have 80's and electro influences whilst trying to be urban and please america

this album is just :wub: serioslly is the pop album of 2008 so far :heart:

I'm loving it :dance:

Downloaded and listened a couple hundreds of times :kink: PERFECT! :heart:

I think if anything, The Fame is poppier! Or just as poppy. Seriously, nothing on the album is as crazy or wild or unique as her performances and the promo such as that short film would have you believe. It's reasonably safe stuff.

 

That's not a criticism - I do love it. Just Dance, Money Honey, Boys Boys Boys, Dirty Rich, Poker Face and Eh Eh are well worth downloading. Singles-wise I'd go:

 

1 | Just Dance - obviously.

2 | Boys Boys Boys - huge appeal, and not too similar to JD. Brilliantly catchy, uplifting chorus.

3 | Poker Face - fan favourite, brilliant chorus.

4 | Eh Eh - 'Cool'-esque slower paced number to draw in new fans and close the era.

 

However with a tie-in video already short for Dirty Rich, I'd go:

 

1 | Just Dance

2 | Dirty Rich (US, where Dirty Sexy Money is a big thing) / Boys Boys Boys (Global)

3 | Poker Face

4 | Boys Boys Boys (US) / Eh Eh (Global)

EVERY SONG IS JUST WOW!

It is very similar to LAMB, you cannot deny it.

 

No offense Ryan but you seem to think anything with some synths and an 80's vibe is a steal from Gwen...this album is so much better then LAMB and Gwen Stefani is one of my favourtie artists.

 

She needs to release in this order:

 

1.Just Dance

2.Boys Boys Boys

3.Dirty Rich

4.Pokerface

5.Paparazzi or Love Game

Im in love with this album :wub:

Not a bad track on it :D

Love Paparazzi :o

Oh and, Best debut album ive heard in AGES

Not at all, I am not critiquing the album or saying Gwen is better. I just find the tone and general record incredibly similar to LAMB. It's basically a mash-up of early Madonna and LAMB. Look at all the comparisons the album is getting - it's not a bad thing. Anyone who says this album is experimental, different, unique... urm, they clearly needs to listen to more music instead of what is being released in the mainstream.

 

Best album ever is pushing it a wee bit, also... it's disappointing if anything. I was expecting something far crazier.

I'm not sure I'm totally in love with it, but I've already listened to the whole album 6 times and enjoyed it ^_^

I agree with the LAMB comparisons, both are very similar in image / tone.

 

However, I find 'The Fame' to correct the mistakes that Gwen made with LAMB. I love Gwen, but I have never been completely satisfied with her solo work. She tries too hard to incorporate RnB into her music where she could totally shine with more pop. Whereas I find that I am completely satisfied with The Fame. Very solid pop album. <3 Totally lovely. It does falter in a few places though (Again Again, Brown Eyes, Paparazzi), but it has enough strong tracks to make up for its mistakes.

 

And yeah, it's definitely not experimental haha. Just a solid pop album.

It's not the album for me, it's her voice.

can't stop playing this album :o :wub:
