But "Burqa"'s verses are good... Well, the second one. The first one can GO, but the second one is pure slayage. First verse & intro are the only "bad" parts in the song.
And yes, I'm still very bitter about the ugliness that is the title "Aura". "Burqa" >>>
If people seriously believe that ARTPOP is looking to be a mess, then the door out is a click away.
"Sex Dreams" is an undeniable classic Gaga song. It embodies all the qualities that a great Gaga song should have: provocative lyrics, an insanely catchy chorus, and beautiful production.
"Jewels & Drugs" is a shocker for Lady Gaga. It is the first true "Urban" song she has ever done, and shows us that, once again, she can excel at any genre in music.
"MANiCURE" is the crazy rock-influenced mid-tempo pop smash that she has always been waiting to release. "Electric Chapel" was the first attempt, but "MANiCURE" does it so much better.
"ARTPOP" is the most mystic track of the songs she has released thus far. This song reminds me of something similar to HML with more structure. Gorgeous production, but with also a defined and powerful chorus.
"Swine" is her most unhinged and insane track ever. Where the song struggles in its lyrical content, it makes up for it quickly with its crazy production and haunting intro.
"Aura" holds perhaps her strongest chorus of this era so far. Overall, the song really offers a new perspective on Lady Gaga as an artist with the powerful production and peculiar intro.
"I Wanna Be With You" may be passed off as another "token ballad" from Lady Gaga, but it really does offer something special. It trumps "You and I" with its heartfelt lyrics and is overall on par with "Speechless" and "Fooled Me Again" as one of her best ballads.
