^ I haven't heard the final version of You & I, so I'm waiting for the album version!
The thing is Monster was an AMAZING album! I thought Fame was an "ok" album with a relatively shallow production but Monster was genius. Bad Romance, Telephone, Alejandro, Monster, Dance in the Dark & even Speechless were
AMAZING. I was slayed. Even Teeth was great even though So Happy I Could Die was the only song that was not "epic". Overall Monster had that A+ factor.
So far I feel like none of the songs from BTW have anything majestic or significant and they are relatively unpleasant. Glory is so cheesy for me, while I WANTED to be slayed by this song. The first listen was enjoyable but it gets so old (even unbearable) after 2 listens and the 1999 eurodance cheesiness makes me feel like I'm listening to a leftover from back then. "with you with you with you, the edge, the edge, the edge". Come on... WHERE are the fine songs that justified my fondness for her music?
