Do we have any indication of when a new album is coming(2015 possibly?) Cheek to cheek seems nice, but I need another Born This Way type album. Didn't enjoy most of ARTPOP, and I need something more applicable to life of a straight guy.....
If everything was everything but everything is over. Everything could be everything if only we were older. I guess it's just a silly song about you.. and how I lost you.. and your brown eyes.

The way Gaga DOMINATES the electronic field, though, even with ARTPOP...
People always call Gaga a popstar, but she doesn't really make pop music, she makes electronic music alongside the likes of Madeon, Zedd, etc. She's the most successful musician in a genre that is mainly run by guys.

She said she wasn't even going to start recording until after the tour ends, so she probably won't even start recording until 2015.
I still don't understand what was so wrong with switching the single from Venus to DWUW in Gaga's eyes. I mean, she wrote every song, so why get all butthurt when your label chooses one and not the other. And it makes even less sense when the song the label chose is actually GOOD. Sometimes gags just has me like
On a non related note, this is basically a summary of what we're experiencing
The thing is, Gaga already had the Venus era planned, from looks to performances, so switching up the single at the last minute made for an unclear single era, as well as messy performances (see the X-Factor DWUW performance). I'd be mad too.

I mean, it's tru tho.
ARTPOP is listed on (the ever unreliable) Wikipedia as EDM, without even listing pop next to it. Born This Way, though listed as dance-pop, is primarily composed of songs that are either entirely or very heavily electronic like HML, BM, GH, Judas, etc. TF and TFM are straight up synthpop, derived almost entirely from the electronic genre. Then there's her two inarguably electronic remix albums. It's impossible to deny that her main focus is more on electronic music and that said focus is stronger than that of any other female in pop music right now; she's an electronic act and one of the most successful ever (definitely the most successful of this millennium so far), but one whose imagery and style lie within the realm of standard pop to a greater extent than some other electronic acts.
I mean, when people doubt the significance Gaga's had to popular music, literally a paragraph and a half from Wikipedia sums it it pretty damn well:

Following the breakthrough success of Lady Gaga with her single "Just Dance" (2008), the British and other media proclaimed a new era of female synthpop stars, citing artists such as Roisin Murphy, Little Boots, La Roux, and Ladyhawke. Male acts that emerged in the same period include Calvin Harris, Empire of the Sun, Frankmusik, Hurts, Kaskade, LMFAO, and Owl City, whose single "Fireflies" (2009) topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart. In 2009, an underground sub-genre with direct stylistic origins to Synthpop became popular, Chillwave. It sprouted new stars in the independent music scene like Washed Out, Neon Indian, and Toro Y Moi.
American singer-songwriter Kesha has also been described as a synthpop artist, with her synthesized debut single "Tik Tok" topping the Billboard Hot 100 for nine weeks in 2010. She also used the genre on her comeback single "Die Young". Mainstream female recording artists who have had success in the genre in the 2010s include Britney Spears, Madonna, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Jessie J, Christina Aguilera, and Beyonce.

Exactly. I don't believe in the idea that all the single worthy tracks on an album can just be released in any random order and have the same exact success/impact. There has to be some sort of creative or musical flow.
I guarantee you things would be 100% different for Katy if the Teenage Dream singles were in reverse order. Gaga wouldn't be 1/10th of what she is now if she started out with "Starstruck" or "LoveGame".
