Yes because her mostly homosexual fan base who are currently the only people buying her music love stripped down country. That's why a Lady Gaga stan is almost always a Toby Keith stan as well. This is VERY safe.
I don't like Gagas new material at all but it's noT safe at all especially after a flop era. y'all need to check your faves before you say stuff like that.
Going back to a sound that preceded your fame is risky. She became famous for bops like Just Dance, which I'm sure is nowhere near what she performed in dive bars all those years before she was Lady Gaga. So yes, Joanne is risky.
No. It's not safe but not good either, judging by PI.
There is another song released + 2 new ones performed live and all of them are better than PI, you could've checked them first before commenting, as the OP is asking about all the 4 songs
Based on what she has served from Joanne, I realized it's her voice that brings down the songs. It's almost unbelievable how much it's changed over the years.
I'm failing to see how this ISN'T safe? Gaga lost the GP's interest because her "weird" and "out there" schtick was becoming played out, so her toning down her image and her sound to save face along with two producers behind "Uptown Funk" and "Sorry" is considered an incredibly brave and creative reinvention? OK.
