Every time I listen to the album it sounds different.
Marry The Night usually sounds the same, but today I noticed this weird little synth line at "It doesn't matter if you love him..." part of BTW and there are these faint moans in the background of Government Hooker.

It's the 4th biggest music market in the world and for most international artists their second biggest market.

Lady GaGa is expected to reach a new sales landmark with her latest studio album Born This Way.
The 'Judas' star will pass the 3 million sales mark in the UK when the figures for her sophomore record come in and are added to her total, reports Music Week.
Born This Way became the fastest-selling album of the year so far upon its release last week, beating Adele's 21, which previously held the record.
GaGa's new album managed to shift 215,639 sales in its first week, passing Adele's first-week sales of 208,090 back in January.
Ahead of Born This Way's release last week, GaGa's total album sales stood at 2.7m in the UK, but with the figures of her latest LP, as well as surge in sales of her debut record The Fame, it is believed that the singer is on the verge of passing the 3 million barrier.
Singles 'Born This Way', 'Judas' and 'The Edge Of Glory', along with promotional single 'Hair', have now accumulated GaGa over 6.1 million singles sales in the UK.
"She's in a league of her own in terms of who she is and the type of superstar she is so we felt really confident about her return," explained Polydor president Ferdy Unger-Hamilton.
"She's achieved so much in such a short space of time. It was only two and half years ago that we released her first single. It's hard to imagine a world without Lady GaGa."
Born This Way could sell up to a million copies in its first week in the US.

The more I listen to Marry the Night, the more I wonder why it wasn't the second single.
I think it would have smashed everything on its way ...

No, US 1st, Japan 2nd, Germany 3rd and the UK 4th.
Darren had a great explanation why it is like that.
