DoNotTellHer (about the album not selling), Manicure, Swine (album version), Venus?
The Fame is better than AP. They're both structured in being pure pop albums, but TF exceeds AP in almost every department.
Hooks:
P-p-p-poker face, papa paparazzi vs I wanna be that G.U.Y., I wanna be that G.U.Y. (basically a hook, even if it is in place of the chorus)
Metaphors:
Disco stick, Russian roulette is not the same without a gun vs Guy I'm Romancing Loves, she wanna be manicured
Not to mention Poker Face, Paparazzi, I Like It Rough etc. have better, streamlined melodies.
People do too much on The Fame. It's a cute album with an actual concept. It's cohesive and effective. The latter half of the album is a great balance, too. When you have a record like AP try to relentlessly shove the same EDM shtick in your face for 15 tracks it becomes abrasive and boring.
Y'all ingrates
I thought I was the only one who felt this way.
) aren't on my track list so I dunno what these filler songs on BTW are.
