I mean... the album just flows vigorously with such conviction. The Fame Monster COULD NEVER.

And let's not forget her most poetic work aka the lyrical genius of "Bloody Mary."

Or the fact it's her darkest work in terms of overall sound and image.

The VARIETY of genres from 80's arena rock to even disco.

Her voice; she sings every song like she has something to say and something to prove.

The album's simply a 4 out of 5 while TFM is only a 3.5, let's be real!

I can go on and on

I find Born This Way's concept better than any other pop album. So inspired, so cohesive, such beautiful music.

Yes.

Nope, it's the beginning of her downfall as a popstar.

Born This Way slays
Yas I agree with most of the stuff you said

She was very inspired by her fans. Some really good songs came out. It didn't come out good as a whole because the bad songs overflowed all the good songs. Especially w those horrid bonus tracks.

Born This Way is by far superior to The Fame Monster, but I can see why people would prefer the latter.

Bloody Mary >>>>> Everything on TFM

No bad songs on the record sans "The Queen" and that's on the deluxe edition. Stick to the Standard and you've got a fantastic and inspired modern Pop record.

Yawn.

BASICALLY!

It's probably her favorite album, very inspirational and interesting with its stories and ideas.

Everything you said >
Bloody Mary >

Born This Way has a lot of amazing tracks, but as a whole The Fame Monster is the best work, with the biggest amount of inspiration coming through the music.

ARTPOP is just an album that's made to sound artistic, but the actually content of the songs lyrically is kind of lacking a strong concept.

I'll drop all the bonus songs
Hair
Bad Kids
Highway Unicorn
Electric Chapel
BTW
MTN

The rest are golden except YAI. It's rather meh.

Easily her best album. The singles were disappointing though

Or something stuck in her throat.

BTW has a few fantastic tracks - But the unnecessary ones & the often muffled-sounding, over-production of the album hold it down. The Fame Monster is still her best work.

BTW is her best attempt at a concept album, there are some songs which aren't necessary but overall, it's one of her strongest works alongside TFM.

The strong songs:

1) Americano (love the production and the 'don't you try to catch me' + the radio effect on the chorus)
2) Bloody Mary
3) Born This Way
4) The Edge of Glory
5) Government Hooker
6) Highway Unicorn (I love the whole production)
7) Judas
8) Marry The Night
9) Scheisse
10) You & I

I love Hair's vocal melody but the lyrics are embarrassing.

I only really like 1 of the 3 bonus tracks - Fashion Of His Love. Heavy Metal Love is really good, Electric Chapel is good and Bad Kid is meh, I thought it would be more aggressive and bad-ass.
