while we're on the subject of Greatest Hits, what do y'all think the tracklist would look like?

 

Just Dance

Poker Face

Paparazzi

Bad Romance

Alejandro

Telephone

Born This Way

Judas

The Edge Of Glory

Applause

Million Reasons

Shallow

Always Remember Us This Way

Rain On Me

NEW SONG

 

seems about right imo. not sure Judas belongs there but feels wrong to only have two BTW songs

I’d add Love Game and You and I

Add DWUW feat Xtina and we have the perfect greatest hits, an immaculate collection 

 

 

Also, the controversy surrounding the song would be beneficial.

Controversy = $

Lady GaGrandma needs to be put to rest... ControversyGa will come back for LG7 or I don't want it.

I don't understand why you want Gaga to collaborate with more artists on her singles, it's already a disgrace that in her TOP 10 most listened songs on Spotify four are with features. We need Gaga alone

Ok, but a Top 10 is automatically a hit, no need more arguments for a GH inclusion.

 

BM and INLA need to explain why they are included in a greatest hits

I don't agree, a top 10 is not a automatically a hit, especially since 2020... A hit is a song with great streams, and Bloody Mary and INLA have both great streams. Stupid Love has cute streams (150m on YouTube and 350m on Spotify), so you could argue that it was a minor hit. Perfect Illusion on the other hand is a complete BOMB, barely 200m on Spotify after 6 years is a tank. 

GarGar needs to explore the concept of her next album deeply. That’s what worked for ASIB, she went full in. In ARTPOP, Joanne and Chromatica, you can tell that there are moments where she is hesitant to explore the concepts further.

because collabs can be great? Especially Gaga's features, Rain On Me, Telephone, Sour Candy are all great songs. And who care if she has features in her top 10 most listened songs?  A good song is a good song, solo or not, and Doja Cat and Gaga would be a match made in heaven.

Exactly this

Perfect Illusion is a cute little TOP 15 hit

I definitely should have added LoveGame that was dumb of me. I would have two out of Judas, The Edge of Glory, and Yoü and I but don't think I would add all of them

I don't like it, I think that a discography with so many guest artists stains the legacy. And Gaga definitely doesn't need a song with Doja or Bad Bunny.

 

A little track like Sour Candy for a album? Ok, but NOT a single.

I’m not literally like some hater - I’m saying the opposite. Objectively she struggles  with longevity, so do we accept the music is bad? We know that’s not true because she’s acclaomed…  The genre? Does she Isolate casuals? Food for thought.
 

Re ASIB she had extremely good music, put on a smash film, timeless production, a focus on lyrics/melody, released in fall, older target audience not just gays.   Basically, it combated all her weaknesses in one go. And she was transitioned to streaming that way too (for various ways). Regarding promotion dance pop relies on playlisting/radio, (Gaga does bad there esp USA) the ASIB songs had relatively bad playlisting longevity, and poor USA radio support - but it didn’t matter as much cause It had the film behind it. 

I know you’re not a hater. I didn’t want to sound like I’m implying you are one. 
 

Her music is great, no matter the genre. She struggles with longevity, no matter the genre with one exception in recent years - ASIB - and the reason behind it is that, imo of course, all of what you mentioned regarding ASIB. 
 

I disagree with people saying she went all in with this or that album and didn’t with another and that’s why she’s underperfoming with certain releases. Anyway; she’s doing good for an artist her caliber and I’m fine with that as long as she delivers exciting music. 

idc a Bad Bunny collab would be amazing and the video would be hot as ****

Yas! Let it happen, Godga.

We really need something, this fanbase becomes unbearable during droughts with revisiting past in negative way.

Bad Bunny collab for his album, Doja Cat collab for LG7 !

Right, I really don’t get what is the reason behind hating on her or her music in general that was released in the past instead of embracing her even more now. She’s acomplished so so much.

A Top 5 is NOT a flop

 

Post its entire chart run for me, baby

I want to know what it's like to call yourself a stan of somebody and trash so much of their work but at the same time I hope I never learn what's that's like. 

Imagine if DWUW had been a solo song, it would be a classic by now. A guest artist can stain a song and his legacy.

 

Same for Just Dance, a feature with Colby is a disgrace.

 

Gaga need to go solo and only features artists for albums tracks.

Whew the production… 

 

ARTPOP’s production was seriously next level. Hard to hear a lot of the details on the album.

The only issue with DWUW solo version is the solo second verse lyrics are a bit 🙄 she would have had to rewrite those to be a bit less narcissistic.

It has became a stale annoying habit of this fanbase doing that, especially if a project-song doesn't smash or become successful, while SL is not between my fave songs from her, it's not even the atrocity some people want to make out of it, recently it has even been used on a Netflix movie, I'm pretty sure the takes about it would be totally different if the song would have became a hit back in the day.

Peak is what matters, chart run is only a little extra information

 

2-word title songs where the first word starts with an S ranking:
