I remember not fully liking Gaga till I saw her 2009 performance at the VMAs.
I bopped to her 3 previous singles, with Pokerface worming in my brain so quickly. But that was like, a moment for me to breathe about who she is.
BR video was interesting, still didn't fully catch me.
Then Telephone single was everywhere, heard Monster too, and Alejandro demo, got TFM, and fully registered as a stan.
Was on ATRL in the BTW times, discovered it.
I love you guys, it's been a journey and still is. But Joanne is what we /NEEDED\ in our lives at our age.

Joanne is a great album and I was bored so I wanted to pointlessly write my praise for her 2009 VMA performance.
