Same  I got startled by them last year too and I completely forgot about the sound effects when they returned this year so it scared the sh!t out of me again

I also forgot about the noise and had my headphones in and turned up when I popped one and I YELPED 

Anywho, I still can't handle Judas out streaming Bad Romance - it's wild.

Let's be hesitant to drag others, esp based on their sexuality (whatever it is). And let's not devolve into an artist drag fest. Let's focus on Gaga and her holiday winnings.

I’ma HYUGGE horror fan and in my humble but correct opinion Hereditary is the best horror movie

👏🏽👏🏽

i literally stopped living alone and posted a roommate required ad after watching it 👏🏽🍑🐔

That one moment really did me in.

Oh I thought you didn't, in general or you love it or not, it's the most discussed movie on the Horror section of ATRL for this reason.

Yeah, I had just forgotten. I have a very terrible memory. Random fact: I have aphantasia - so I often need to be visually reminded or things.

I’ll need to go back and check out the ending to remember how I felt about it.

Most discussed, wow. I’ve become a diehard Jordan Peele fan over the past decade. 

On 12/15/2022 at 12:48 PM, Leptine said:

Be careful in not reading spoilers or watch trailers video on Youtube, it's the best horror of the last year (if you like horror camp, it's genius).

NVM, I have seen it, ahahaha. It was good, I don't think I loved the ending tho.

It was "make me a mod otherwise I'm gonna make a coup" but the site has limits regarding username titles. 

Pls fix it @admin

Sure

Wait how has everyone seen and loved Malignant but me. I will watch this Xmas period.

My fave horror of the year has been Barbarian. I really liked Pearl and to a lesser extend X as well.

This thread found dead in a ditch:

My  suggestions:

-Staff should make members to follow rules.
-The Chart thread, "Bloody Mary Stream BTW" is a full mess, full of off topics comments...coudn't find a single comment about charts only off topics about random albums they like, nominations ,oscar, etc.
-create a Lady Gaga Base if there is any, because a lot of member talk about everything in the chart thread which is wrong since is a "chart thread"  Make them respect the topic, isn't fun if they they do whatever they want..

i did join this forum to check the chart thread and its a mess that i can't find that in the right thread because members talk about everything else, no point to join a forum with threads where members don't respect that and admins don't make them to respect the topic.its easy warn them or do a base thread or change the title to something else because they don't talk about charts at all. @admin

I see your point, but the vibe of the site is what it is. Charts encompasses essentially everything because that's where people go. We'll see what changes in the future, but we will not be forcing charts-only chats at this time.

then call this " lady gaga base" not Chart thread when yall talk about everything else . love u

 

On 12/15/2022 at 12:21 PM, BloodyMagic said:

so, there is not a chart thread or a base thread then? its just one thread that is called "chart thread" but yall talk about everything else??   ok good to know 

You have to be the change you desire. We are a forum built on chart folk and that's where most of the convo lives. Won't be changing the name of this main thread tho unless there are lots of people posting in other threads, maybe like @little legend's

This is only true in the USA I guess. I’ve never heard a Beyoncé song in public ever in my country. She’s a force to be reckoned with but sadly she’s not as global as other pop girls.

I don’t pay enough attention to her numbers, but that’s interesting and unfortunate. 

On 12/15/2022 at 2:18 AM, Leptine said:

It's still weird to me how her catalogue is doing such abymisal streams despite her 3 last studio albums supposed to be very successful projects, like she wasn't on Britney level of declining last decade.

In my country as well, the last proper hit she got was 'Telephone', 'Break My Soul' here peaked at 59, if they use songs from her on tv programs or talent show they still use 'Listen' or 'Halo'.

On 12/15/2022 at 2:31 AM, Leptine said:

I think the Tidal fraudulence was real during the 'Lemonade' era, fake streams and sales coming from Tidal to massively  inflate her album stats, also her music from those albums have no replay value in the long run, they're the rnb-urban trendy sound of the moment in the US.

'Reinassamples' will have the same path, in less than a year its streams will be abymisal, it's an album that sound more rnb than dance with nothing that really sound like it's gonna last in time.

It's a pity that a singer with her voice has been reduced to make songs in which she basically rap-talk for the majority.

I think it’s less the fraudulence and now just that it was exclusive. Adele also suffered by keeping 25 of for so long. 

It’ll be interesting to see what happens with R, I love it and I think it’ll hold better than her last albums due to its release and quality (even tho I prefer Bey and Lemonade).

basically, Rihanna stans are really brave cause her only achievements are nothing from talent

at least Taylor can say she writes her songs, and she has a huge touring demand

Rihanna can't write, can't sing properly, can't dance properly either and her touring numbers are really mediocre

Rihanna can sing, I’ve seen her live and she was great. She has written some songs, but regardless - there is a taste level to her selection of songs and her performances. Don’t take away all of someone like Rihanna’s achievements just cause she’s not as good as some others. 

On 12/14/2022 at 2:03 PM, chartgaga said:

less low than watching Beyoncé do the same dance with lipsync at every performnce and people calling it groundbreaking when it's just another performance she stole from an indie artist from a small country, we all remember her Powerpoint performance she blatantly stole

This is absurd. Lol. Bey is a FORCE. Almost everyone has influences, there’s no shame in that.

Hey Cam.

The weird thing about Beyoncé is that she was coming from 2 big eras, she didn't have an organic decline, I think 'Lemonade' had very inflated fraudulent sales due to Tidal, 'Reinassance' did well because of radio payola and no competition and high playlisting.

While it made sense for Gaga not being a huge streaming act for awhile, with Beyoncé is weird how two successful projects have became totally forgotten, it's truly all media propaganda, her records truly don't have any replay value.

Gaga did some classic records that are getting discovered because they are actually good, Gaga's improvement in streaming was always going to happen because of the quality of her work.

Bey was and is huge. Her songs may not be for you, but she has an unbelievable catalog that many, many of us appreciate and stream. Honestly, I hear about her last three albums much more than Gaga’s among the GP. 

Let’s see if Bloody Mary can help fix that along with ASIB.

I hope it's okay I bump this thread!

@admin is it possible to get more formatting options? Not sure how much of a hassle it is, but it'd be extremely nice to be able to have the option to align the text and change the color and size.

I think I might actually remove color options, but I thought alignment was already in there, oops!

I primarily use dark mode and people often post things that are black and I think it would be a bit simpler to just keep all text the same color. Open to various thoughts tho.

And yes, please bump!

I've been playing since forever, but I've only put in a few hours into the new game so far. I've been feeling Poke-fatigue for the past few gens and it's only been increasing. I was hoping the two games this year would've made me fall in love again, but so far, it has not.

Wait, let's do OG starter:

I can finally react to stuff again yay 

Now I can react to Bloody Mary’s continued slayage as well as the other slayage in here. 

Is there a requirement here for so many posts or reaction points before you can react a certain amount to posts? I wasn’t able to find anything about it in the guidelines. I may just not be looking in the right spot. 
 

EDIT: never mind it says I can’t react to anything again 

I've taken away the restriction for now for new members. React away. But yes, normally there are restrictions for newer members that slowly go away as you become a larger part of the community. 

I feel Edge of Glory deserves another orbit around the sun tbh. 

Non single my vote would go to Babylon, Replay or Diamond Heart. 

Where's the video campaign? I need a video campaign me thinks.

It seems that you are correct. We are many users now and most of the mod team is offline including admin. We should hire new mod team. 

I volunteer.

like not want to be shady, but it should be a priority that the new mod team are quite active here 

i can get that people come and go, but if that's the case the mod team should change

that being said, i don't know if i could pinpoint a good mod from the messy f-words that post here 

I agree and know we need a serious retcon of the whole site tbh. Will start considering new mods next week and I've reserved the week around Xmas to spend a lot of time on the site. Will post later, but not until I'm sure I have the time and things ready. I can't keep posting empty promises 

Happy to see some new folks, welcome!

I dunno. A 2nd Oscar for Gaga this soon seems crazy. And HMH didn't have the cultural impact Shallow did. I could see them equally wanting to give it to BP:WF to honor Chadwick.

they do not reward based on charts impact. Many many winning songs have never charted... we'll see 

On 12/13/2022 at 10:20 AM, Lazz Monster said:

They don't really care about honoring Chadwick, he was the frontrunner last year (a few months after his death) and he still lost

This is all true, but there is really no way HMH is winning the Oscar or GG. Just cast that out of your mind to avoid disappointment. She'll win this Oscar again in the future, but this year isn't it.

My sorta busted Apple Music pics. I'll update it again when the year actually ends tho.
