Shit Little Monsters Say Pt. 2
At the beginning of the “Born This Way” era, Gaga described the album as “experimental” and “hardcore”, yet she has released some of the least experimental and hardcore songs from the album. I think what kept the album’s singles from smashing TFM style is the fact that Gaga tried to give people what she thought they would want. The thing is, in Gagaland, what people want is completely different from what people want in Rihanna, Katy, Britney, and Ke$haland, and Gaga tried to conform to what people want in Rihanna, Katy, Britney, and Ke$haland. If you take a look back at “The Fame Monster”, ‘Bad Romance’ was not radio friendly, nor was ‘Alejandro’, and even ‘Telephone’ had an edge to it, yet they all did incredibly well. I think what people truly want from Gaga is the music she claims to make: edgy, different, robust-type pop songs that aren’t necessarily pop but still fit in that category. Coming from a darker, more edgy album like “The Fame Monster”, people expected songs like ‘Scheisse’, ‘Government Hooker’, and ‘Heavy Metal Lover’. We know this because, sans ‘The Edge of Glory’ (smashed for a completely different reason), none of the singles from “Born This Way” have been praised as much as ‘Scheisse’, ‘Government Hooker’, and ‘Heavy Metal Lover’ by the critics, fans, and public alike.
The general public doesn’t want the “old Gaga” back, they want the actual Gaga back. The Gaga that wasn’t afraid to put out a good song, or the Gaga that wasn’t afraid to do what Gaga does best. The Gaga that is different because it’s who she is, not the Gaga that puts out a rehash of an old single because she thinks it’ll do well.

I don’t understand how you can “expose” someone who is very open about their life.
From the very beginning, I’ve never held anything back and I always talk about who I am, what I do, what I like, and what I believe in. I’ve shared personal stories about my family dysfunction, my family members dying, my nephew, my school life, my personal life, so I don’t get it. You can’t expose someone who has already exposed themselves. Am I supposed to be upset that you’re posting pictures of me? Most of my friends know what I look like because I have everyone added on Facebook, so once again I really don’t get it.
You want to call me pathetic for making fun of people, but at least I do it to their face. I don’t create a blog and hide behind it because I’m too much of a coward to take responsibility for my own actions.
