ditto "The Edge of Glory" with Katy Perry, which copies the sound of "Firework" rather than the sentiment). The soft-rock sax that crops up on a couple of the songs is a failure, but it's a noble and well-intentioned one, and that just about makes it forgiveable.

EVEN WORSE

MetaCritic weights certain publication's reviews higher than others. For example, a review from a publication like Entertainment Weekly or Rolling Stone will count more than a review from a random city newspaper.

Ahhh, that makes sense. Thank you! I did it like 3 times, wondering if I had messed up with the math lmfao.

I did the average of all the critics reviews only (without the two Sputnik and TMT) and it averages to 71.3.

It's weird though because when I do all the scores combined and averaged them, I got 67.5.

The reviews are weighted different.

Without those reviews, it could end up having a 74-75. It's not a big difference, but it would be a much more fair score imo.

Seriously. Somebody go add up the Born This Way reviews, but exclude the Tiny Mix Tape one and the two Sputnik ones.

Speaking of which, why did Sputnik review Born This Way twice?

Two different reviewers from the same publication, I guess...

Is there a way to report the Tiny Mix Tapes review to have it removed?

Ugh but seriously, can someone tell me why Gaga's The Remix and Born This Way: The Remix are included on MC but not Beyoncé's 4: The Remixes or both of Britney's B in the Mix albums. What a joke.

A mess with the way those reviews are weighted!

And the Sputnik ones. Those reviews are so unbelievably unprofessional.

I'm so tired of this "let's hate Gaga because she's the queen of the misfits" rhetoric.

I don't think so.

I sent them a message when they added it to Metacritic (and so did other monsters, IIRC), but they didn't remove it.
That pressed soul's review is going to stay there forever

It looks fake.
I mean, why would she use that old photoshoot?

[YSL]

It's probably fake since she did the fragrance shoot and commercial with Steven Klein.
