Okay, I promised I wouldn't do this, but seeing these vids of her perform old hits are bringing me to a breaking point. I really love ARTPOP and it's got some great songs on it I love, but the truth is NOTHING on it comes close to Gagas past hits and the old songs she used to release. There's no instant classic feel with any of them and it's so sad. She should work with RedOne again and sort out whatever **** she has with people for her sake and our sake. I love her so much and I just want her to make the best music she can make and we know ARTPOP is not it. Please Gaga, please.

What we all should remember is that hits on the level of PF/BR are few and far between in a popstars career, and whilst Gaga may be an incredibly talented songwriter...it's a huge ask to write those kind of pop classics on demand. She's done a fantastic job to deliver the consistent high level that she has so far.
What she should remember is that there's absolutely no shame in collaborating. It's a saying in my industry that when two creatives collaborate, the third person they make together is often infinitely more talented than either would be alone. Same applies to Gaga. She needs people to bring the best out of her, challenge her and guide her. She's not going to reap the best rewards with semi-mainstream DJs who have no/little pop experience.
I think she's probably exhausted RedOne. She should work with people who'll provide a fresh take.
