Throwback Thursday: Lady Gaga Artpop Review

So this I was actually pleasantly surprised to listen to again. Artpop was my least favorite Lady Gaga cd… and honestly… idk if I can say that anymore. I liked it way more than I thought I would. I think I’ve only listened to it all the way through once before this… and I understand why… but at the same time- I’d like listening to these with all the other Gaga songs on Shuffle or something. 

There’s only one song on this that I really don’t like. Jewels and Drugs is just not my thing… I didn’t really like the rap in it… I didn’t feel like there was enough Gaga on it. I also am not a fan of R.Kelly as a person… he’s a very talented singer and entertainer… I actually watched all of Trapped in The Closet… but I know he’s had some pretty bad scandals in the past… and I just can’t really support him as a person. I heard him at a club recently and I was like “I feel funny dancing to this because I don’t like R Kelly…” I’m not a club person. 

Anyway other than that I really like all the songs… but they are all very Dancy and very sexy… and I kind of wished there was just one song like Speechless or You and I to kind of break it up. Gypsy was kind of like that… but with the energy of this cd… I feel like there should be something a little bit earlier. It’s just very very dancy and it’s totally the opposite of Joanne. It’s so amazing how the same singer did both of these cds. 

So favorite songs on the cd… Aura, Venus,G.U.Y and Sexxx Dreams used to be my favorites… and I still really like them. But I have to say I love Gypsy, Swine, Mary Jane Holland, and Applause a lot too. Applause was always one of my favorite singles from Lady Gaga and I feel like it’s such an underrated song. I was surprised she performed it on her Joanne tour and I really loved that performance! It’s also one of my favorite music videos ever. Ohhh and i love the song Artpop… it’s just really great! 

Alright… now I have to rank my favorite Gaga Cds… 

5. The Fame Monster 
4. Artpop 
3. The Fame 
2. Joanne 
Born This Way 

I’m kind of surprised at this order… I knew Born This Way is my total favorite ever… surprised I like Joanne so much! It’s so different… but I just really love all the songs. It’s a good one! 

Okay! That is the end of the Lady Gaga Throwback Thursday Extravaganaza… kind of. I will have a review of American Horror Story: Hotel within the next few weeks… maybe next week… I might do a Taylor Swift Throwback Thursday because I haven’t started watching Hotel again… we’ll see what happens lol. 

Byee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...
