Just finished another complete listen of the album.
I'm starting to get more into
Aura's new vocals.
Venus and
G.U.Y are still amazing.
Sexxx Dreams is now one of my favorites from the album, just realized the bridge part is a reference to Medusa.
I love all the Greek Mythology references.
Jewels N' Drugs is pretty good....the only 'rap' song I like.
MANiCURE slays me each time.
Do What U Want is definitely an album highlight!!!!!
ARTPOP is good but I just wish the pre chorus was sung how she sings "Free my mind ARTPOP, you make my heart stop". Also I wish the Hee Hees were more prominent in the ending, it seems like it's lacking something without them.
Really like
Swine, but wish there was something in the intro. I may replace it with the extended leak version we got a few weeks back.
Donatella is wearing off on me. I like it, love the intro, the verses, prechorus and postchorus but I feel the chorus itself has so much going on. I can barely even hear the "I'm the pearl to your oyster, I'm a babe" part.
Fashion is ok. I love the references to Marry The Night and the long note she holds but that's about it. It too is wearing off on me.
Mary Jane Holland almost made me fall asleep
I really have nothing to say about that song anymore.
Surprisingly
Dope woke me up. I love the raw emotion in her vocals.
I love
Gypsy more with every listen. I think you guys know that already.
And
Applause. A good way to end the album. I'm appreciating it a lot more now.
So my trinity for ARTPOP
Gypsy ♥ Do What U Want ♥ Sexxx Dreams
With G.U.Y and Venus coming in close behind.
