How Does Lady Gaga Songs Age for You?

[NeRD]

Just curious. I still adore Paparazzi to this day, but other songs like Just Dance and even PF and most of TFM singles have been deleted from my Ipod. The only recent song that I can see myself playing a year from now is Edge of Glory.


Does her songs have high burnout rates for you?

[ListenToItTwice]

Surprisingly, they don't burn at all for me. I only like about a third of her stuff on first listen, but I continue to like it for a pretty extended period of time, with very few exceptions.

[Lozzy]

They've all aged pretty well for me. All of them have burnt on me at some point, of course, but all of the TF and TFM singles, along with "Born This Way" have "risen back" very well. Too early to judge for "Judas" onwards, but they should go the same way.

[MountainMan]

None of her songs have really aged for me, as I don't listen to her constantly on my iPod.

The most played song by her in my iTunes is Bad Kids at 98 plays.

[switch]

As far as singles go, I can't stand Bad Romance, Pokerface, Alejandro.

Surprisingly, Just Dance and Telephone have been the ones that have aged the best for me.

[Devil Marlena Nylund]

I think her first album does sound dated already, with the exception of Paparazzi. But I'm not really burnt out on it at all. Just Dance got new life for me last year so I still love it now.
The Fame Monster I'm probably more burned out on. Bad Romance, I obviously love, but I still need some distance from it. Same with Telephone.
I was burned on Born This Way, the single, earlier this year but it's on the uptrend for me again now whereas I'm done with You And I for awhile.

I think they're all aging naturally for me. Some songs I can never recover from after hearing endlessly for months but so far, so good for Gaga.

Depends on the song for me. I'm kinda burnt on Paparazzi, Bad Romance, and Telephone... but Poker Face (especially ), Just Dance, and Alejandro haven't at all.

[Deleted]

I haven't really burned out on any of them besides Bad Romance. Poker Face still sounds as immaculate as it did in 2008.

Well, since it's so direct, it's the kind of music that you either love forever or hate instantly, for me. I liked "Bad Romance"/"Telephone"/"Pokerface" a lot when they first came out, and so I can listen to them regularly without fail. But songs like "Born This Way" and "Judas" make me want to tear my hair out. I don't think there was a song I received in a lukewarm manner--- they were always either hit or miss for me, and remain to this day. I guess none of them have "burned" on me, but the ones I hated a year ago still sound terrible today.

[vantiboy3]

Alejandro ages with grace for me.

The rest? Stomach-churning, with a hint of a light throbbing and abhorrence!

[Hefty Hanna]

I still don't understand a song having a "burn rate". Once I like a song I like it forever. There's obvious times when I listen to a song a lot and then I don't listen to it again for a long time but I'll always like the song.

I can still listen to most of the GaGa singles and enjoy them as much as I did when they were released.

[Scotty]

I love them all. Flawless. Masterpieces. Incredible. Timeless.

[MiniMusic]

So Happy I Can Die is a song that will just never die, it's timeless sounding to me. Flawless.

[Black Jesus]

I can't really listen to Telephone anymore. Otherwise, I still bump them all - especially the songs from BTW.

I see your point, but what you described is kind of a burn rate. I played the heck out of the BTW album this past summer, and I still haven't really gone back to it yet, although I love most of the songs.

[Au$tin]

"Just Dance" has aged well for me.
"Poker Face" surprisingly aged very well. I actually despised the song at first, and as the time goes, I like it a bit more and more.
"LoveGame" still continues to be my jam.
"Bad Romance" aged terribly. I can't listen to it at all.
"Telephone" is slightly dated for me, but I still like it on occasion.
"Judas" also aged terribly, but it's still decent.
"The Edge of Glory" and "Yoü and I" are both still amazing to me.

I don't think a lot of people understand the concept of being burnt out on a song and having that idea being different from thinking a song is a bad song or otherwise disliking it.

Bad Romance is perhaps the GaGa song I'm burnt out the most on right now but I still consider it her best song and probably my favourite song by hers. If you listen to something enough, you get sick of it. I think intelligent people understand that being sick of it doesn't suddenly mean the song is suddenly *bad*. I know that people I know dislike songs they hear often when really they've just heard them too much and are sick of them, which often is just temporary.

Her non-singles have aged better for me than her singles.

For example, I still think "The Fame" and "Beautiful Dirty Rich" are two of the best pop songs of the past few years. I also like "Dance in the Dark."

Of her singles, I think "Just Dance" and "Bad Romance" have aged the best for me.

[SPRΞΞ]

burnt out on everything besides Edge of Glory, Born This Way, and Alejandro. Her best are her non-singles, like Monster, So Happy I Could Die, Schiebe, Heavy Metal Lover, and Bloody Mary.
