Lady Gaga Artpop Album Songs [cracked] 90%
A throwback to 1960s girl groups but filtered through a chainsaw guitar. "MANiCURE" is about finding strength after illness (Gaga had recently cancelled a tour due to a hip injury requiring surgery). The lyrics—“I’m gonna be a snob, I’m gonna be a slob, I’m gonna get a manicure”—are about personal reclamation. It’s punchy, anthemic, and the "Woah-oh-oh" chant makes it a staple for stadium shows.
Released as the third single, "G.U.Y." is a masterclass in power dynamics. The song flips the submissive phrase “guy” into a declaration of strength. Built on a shuffling house beat and a heavy bassline, it interpolates the breakdown from "LoveGame." The middle-eight features a haunting choir. The music video, filmed at the Hearst Castle, is one of the longest music videos ever made, essentially a short film about resurrection and corporate takeovers. lady gaga artpop album songs
