I always wonder what Lady Gaga’s second/third album would have sounded like if she had continued to ride the trend of Red One and not gone with the experimental tracks of Born This Way.

As much as I like it, I think too much was a departure from the sound she had developed and grown from The Fame/The Fame Monster.

I feel they made the right call to be honest - it would have been repeating past glories otherwise.
RedOne's music does get a bit repetitive after a bit.
As great as Judas is, it is a bit of a carbon copy of Poker Face and Bad Romance.

Which is understandable to some degree and the album does contain some of her most brilliant tracks. Every artist has to show progression to some extent but I do feel that the departure was too sudden/soon, especially as she was riding high with tracks like ‘Poker Face’, ‘Bad Romance’ and ‘Alejando’, all radio staples.

‘Judas’ was a good next logical bridge and if she had two or three more of these between the album it would have helped transitionally as some of the tracks were so widely different and a quite a stark shock at the time.

‘Born This Way’ is a good album, and a fan favourite but I still believe it needed some of those poppier moments to move to help move towards her next phase.

The project always reminds me of Kelly Clarkson’s ‘My December’ and just like that album, there needed to be compromises as such.

I don’t think Born This Way is particularly far removed from The Fame Monster.

I feel ‘Fame Monster’ was more instant and ‘radio hit’ driven, whereas ‘Born This Way’ was Gaga’s first real experimental phase and you could see her real music tastes beginning to bleed through.

Assume they're still processing since they were just uploaded within the hour? There's a lot of compression. Usually takes a couple hours to look normal. But we'll see.

Oh I forgot about this, I thought 1080 would work faster nowadays dd.

When Bad Romance gets that Ultra 4K remaster?! we're not ready! and we'll never have it.

They got the crop wrong on Gwen's "Cool" again dd

And after looking further into it, they all do seem to be the same ones that were uploaded previously (for some reason I remembered them being a lot worse)... so not sure what all this is about
