blown away

It aged like a fine wine. Her best song.

7 years ago, I was on my way to work. I had left my apartment a few minutes later than usual and I had to be quick to make it to the train station in order to catch my train. I had to go to the station by bike and on my way one of the traffic lights had turned red just as I got there. Since the road I had to cross was a one way street from the right to the left and the cars from the right first had to cross an entire square I figured I could still make it through the light. What I'd forgotten though is that the tram is allowed to come from the left and it missed me by a hair. I couldn't have seen it coming because a building blocked my view from the left and I had earplugs in so I couldn't hear it coming either. If that tram had hit me I wouldn't have survived for sure. I never did a thing like that again ever since.

I don't vibe with the song, but damn. She won hard with this one I have to applaud those numbers.

One of her greatest songs. In my opinion, it still sounds fresh today.

I won't judge on the first clip, the audio is not very good on the part that I've heard. The other two clips, yikes... There's not a hidden vocalist in her, but some vocal training would benefit her. Look at what Madonna was capable of with Bedtime Stories, Something To Remember, Evita and Ray Of Light. She isn't a vocalist either but she sounds wonderful on those albums.

Did he really make that claim AGAIN? What a dumb motherfucker.

I know it's beloved by a lot of people, but I truly loathe this remix of an otherwise impeccable song.

Not only did you burn my eyes with that blasphemous first paragraph, but then you proceeded to praise one of her most boring songs. Secret devours it several times over.

Still sounds great almost 20 years later.

Exactly, I'd rather have a Vanish Into You, Garden Of Eden or Killah video instead. But tbh Zombieboy should've been the one that was used in Wednesday instead of TDD. That one should've remained in the vault.

Well yes it is. Love the dramatics and the vocals of INLA. But I also love the rah-rah bops, no need to dismiss them.

The release of Alejandro itself was totally fine. People loved that song. The video was a first (minor) crack. Born This Way was a fine lead single and a great statement. It wasn't a song meant to have lasting power on the charts but I figured they knew that since they had a follow-up ready within 2 months. Judas was where the first major crack happened. The release backfired and was seen as gimmicky. Having The Edge Of Glory as a second single would've avoided that. But as others have said, Judas was just a crack. ARTPOP is where it went completely wrong.

Beat me to it.

Donna sweetie... I mean, Future Lovers isn't bad. But I Feel Love is just that *****. One of the best records of all time.

Don't Forget About Us is gorgeous. Honestly I slightly prefer it over We Belong Together.
