is awesome because it takes the idea of a man being in control and turns it on its head, making the woman the "guy." "I’m gonna say the word and own you. "G.U.Y." – Getting sick of Gaga’s sexual references yet? I’m not. This song is yet another representation of Gaga’s fascination with love and sex.

I wonder if this could be love." Again, the song is sexually charged and speaks of someone’s intense sexual appeal. "When you touch me I die just a little inside. One truly feels like they are traveling through the solar system and seeing some unreal martians along the way. Take me to your Vanus." The haunting background vocals chant "To the planet," and create an alien-esque vibe. Gaga's references to the planets through out the song makes it even more interesting (Uranus). The beat is heart-stopping and energetic.

" Venus" – One of the singles off the album, Venus begins with a strong, pulsing intro. It is a great intro to the album because it reminds the listener what Gaga is all about and that she is still intrigued by sex and pleasure. Pleasure, toil, sexual pleasure are all part of what makes this song provocative and fun to dance to. The song’s main theme talks about wanting to know the real person behind someone’s facade (aura). It is clear that Gaga has not lost her taste for strange and unique lyrics over sick synthesizers and bass. The song then takes a turn towards weird(er) but oddly satisfying after this. " Aura" – The song opens with some eerie guitar tunes with Gaga singing about a murder. Everything on the album is classic Gaga, as well as some new tricks and adjustments to her image as a singer / entertainer.Įach song on the album has its own unique touch, and whether you are a fan of Gaga’s intense dance beats or in love with her emotionally charged ballads, "Artpop" has something for every type of Lady Gaga fan. Now that it’s here, I must say that I am not disappointed. Whether the press is good or not, everyone has been anxiously awaiting what Gaga has in store for them next.Īs a devoted Gaga fan since her first album, "The Fame," I have been practically falling out of my seat with impatience since the album was announced. The album has been a hot topic ever since it was announced almost a year and a half ago.
