It doesn't matter if Gaga sells 1, 5 or 10 versions of LG7, Little Monstrosities won't buy them anyway

As someone who enjoys half of Harlequin, yes it's not fully jazz etc. but it was still very misleading on Gaga's part. I honestly don't know what she thought, especially with that awful song Good Morning opening the album, her being more excited for Harlequin than Disease, her promoting Harlequin more, there was a full weak of teasing leading up to it (Disease had none of that), she was spotted wearing t-shirts etc.  and the snippets she posted were hinting at an alt. rock album. And then bam, it's another album in the veins of L4S and C2C full of covers. It was super misleading and it definitely killed the hype for LG7 along with JFAD bombing. One of the biggest mistakes she's made in her career tbh. One thing is JFAD bombing - she can't control that, a whole different thing is dropping a surprise release right before LG7 era is about to start, hinting that it's original alt rock and hyping it up and then it ends up being another cover album with traditional pop/jazz songs   

 

As someone who enjoyes some of this music, it was a mess mostly for these reasons:

1. It literally does not fit the visuals of Harlequin, the album cover looks so cool and then the music is literally cheek 2 cheek 2.0.  Makes no sense. 

2. It could've been a  great holiday album with the same covers/reenditions (excluding Joker and Folie a deux) and it would've been received well by the fanbase. But instead it was hyped as a surprise release and she never even disclosed it's just a bunch of covers until we heard it ourselves and was dropped right before LG7 era was about to start. 
3. I feel like even if JFAD was successful, Harlequin would've still bombed, because nobody is here for that kinda music especially not in relation to a beloved badass character named Harley Quinn . 

 

 

 

All this tea. Harlequin makes no sense sonically in relation to the character/film. A cute EP with 4 alt rock or punk songs would've slayed. It really was a big misstep, unfortunately.

Yes I did. The song arrangements in the movie were not especially jazzy.

I thought we forgot Joker ever existed, why are we still talking about it??

[John Slayne]

honestly the visuals and art direction for Harlequin slayed but I'm not trying to hear anymore of her boring jazz covers  sorry

 

i'm glad she's moved onto Disease and I hope LG7 has a sound similar to that, none of that HAC ballad nonsense
