Imma do a track by track review right here, right now.
1. Marry The Night - 6/10 I am just not feeling this track, at all. It hits me as too high of expectations for what she hyped it up to be (and what we were expecting with that epic instrumental).
2. Born This Way – 7/10 Remarkably, the more I listen to other tracks on the album, the more I like this song. I hated it at first, and it’s still not one of my favorites. However, it is so different from anything she’s done so far.
3. Government Hooker – 8/10 I really like this track a lot, and it’s fierceness is nice. Compared to the best dance tracks on the album, though, it’s not as good. But it is still amazing in its own right.
4. Judas – 9/10 I had to decrease this rating from a 10 because of You and I. But this song is one of my favorite GaGa uptempo song so far. It is good, and it sounds so amazing when you’re jamming in the car.
5. Americano – 9/10 Other than the awkward introduction, this song is BEAST. It is simply amazing, the mariachi techno beats description was certainly appropriate. Another song to blast in your car.
6. Hair – 5/10 Honestly, my least favorite track on the album. I honestly can’t believe that RedOne and Gaga made a track I didn’t like. The meaning is contrived and honestly it sounds like something Miley would sing.
7. Scheisse – 10/10 Now THIS SONG IS FIERCE. Easily one of the best on the album. The pulsating dance beats put you in a trance, and you wanna stay that way.
8. Bloody Mary – 9.5/10 Now THI S ROCKS. The instrumentation is my favorite she’s done. It sounds so…epic. I absolutely adore it.
9. Black Jesus / Amen Fashion – 8/10 – Based on the title I thought that I was going to hate it, but I actually enjoy it a lot and get the message behind it. Definitely one of the stronger bonus tracks.
10. Bad Kids – 8.5/10 Definitely a hard track, and really interesting and epic. The intro is amazing, and so is the chorus.
11. Fashion of His Love – 8/10 I loved the “Then You Love Me” shoutout in the song, it was a nice treat for the little monsters.
12. Road to Love) 7.5/10 – Not really memorable to me, but a good song nonetheless.
13. Heavy Metal Lovers 8/10 – Fierce fierce track. Just hot.
14. Electric Chapel – 9/10 Yet again she is slaying me with these instrumentals. They are so on point and key parts of the song. I love the eerie feeling of this song.
15. The Queen 8.5/10 Prolly one of the best bonus tracks, I love the meaning behind it and the PIANOOOO
16. You and I 11/10 Honestly, this is her best song to date. She will find it very hard to top herself with this. I do believe that the song did give me chills when she first performed it in June last year, but she is doing the same thing EVERY time I listen to it.
17. The Edge of Glory – 10/10 A Perfect Pop track. What more do you need?
The album leaves little to be desired. A 10/10.

Great review. That was a good read. 
My remark: - I felt the same about Marry The Night at the first 2 listens, but then it grew on me and now it's one of my favourites.
- I can't believe you hated the EPIC intro of Americano. It's like the best part of the song for me.
- Hair is a grower, believe me. Need more plays.
That it.

Born This Way is pure liberation!  Sorry for my lateness, I had to go out earlier, but WOW, what a masterpiece.  I didn't expect this scale of brilliance. Marry The Night, Government Hooker, Americano, Scheisse, Bloody Mary, You & I and The Edge of Glory are my favourites so far. This is why I stan for Gaga. |
Glad you liked the album.

Thanks. 
And I found that what you said about MTN is definitely true. Like, when I streamed it on farmville it was like gorrrl what is the ish? And then I found it was better after I *****d it a little.
And eh, I just can't get into the intro.
and if Hair is a grower, I need even more than 56 listens

Our musical tastes are very similar Even within the Gaga community, the same thing happened to me with MTN, I love the intro of Americano and Hair I also find brilliant; grew on me with every listen

No comment.
Okay, it seems that "Hair" is a lost cause here.

On Bloody Mary now, the album is progressing slightly. Love the dark edge to this song... looking forward to that unicorn song!

Marry the Night is sooo much better in HQ. That's all it needed.
Electric Chapel also vastly improved with better quality.

Just like it is for lots of other people on here, but iTunes seems to disagree right now.
