Fame Monster (Picture Disc)

Absolutely fantastic. When lady gaga burst out onto fame in 2008 she was known for being a Madonna copycat but when she released the sequel to her debut alum the fame in 2009 she went from Madonna copycat to mother monster. The 8 track album was called the fame monster. This 2 cd set conscists of a fame monster deluxe edition including her debut album the fame. Altogether there is 24 songs and I will run through them with you. Disc 1: the fame monster 1.bad romance: one of the best songs on the album has a fantastic beat and definitely changed gaga's image. A fantastic lead single for the album 10/10 2.Alejandro: a fantastic sassy single from the album and the alternitive beat on the song can please anyone 9/10 3.monster: a great girl power title track song but it not single worthy 8/10 4.speechless: an empowering, great slow song, disappointed it was never a single 9/10 5.dance in the dark: a fantastic gaga song. Should have definitely been a single 10/10 6.telephone ft Beyoncé: a fantastic second single one of my favourites on the album 10/10 7.so happy I could die: a fantastic party song but wouldn't do well as a single 8/10 8.i like this song but it is probably the weakest song on the album 6/10 Disc 2: the fame 1.Just dance ft Colby O'Donis: a fantastic first single for gaga will go down in history as one of the best dance songs 10/10 2.Lovegame: one of my all time favourite gaga songs, absolutely brilliant 10/10 3.Paparazzi: a fantastic song about what fame can do to you but I think this would have done better as a slow song 9/10 4.Poker face: even bigger then just dance! I love this song 10/10 5.I like it rough: one of my favourites on the album should have been a single 10/10 6.Eh, eh nothing else I can say: a lovely song but not one of my favourites 8/10 7.Starstruck ft space cowboy and flo rida: a fantastic dance song but wouldn't have done well as a single 8/10 8.Beautiful, dirty rich: a fantastic song with a catchy beat should have been a sixth single! 10/10 9.the fame: a nice song but not one of my favourites good she did not pick it as a single 8/10 10.money honey: love this one, a real dance song 9/10 11.boys, boys, boys: a bit of a silly song but still catchy 7/10 12.paper gangsta: fantastic! Should have been a single instead of eh, eh nothing else I can say 13.brown eyes: her first and one of her best slow songs 9/10 14.summerboy: slow and boring 5/10 15.Disco heaven (bonus track): a fantastic dance song should have been included on all versions 9/10 16.again again (bonus track): a good song but I do see this being similar to speechless that did get released after this 8/10 17.retro dance freak (bonus track, not included): a fantastic dance song should have been put on all versions not just the Japanese version 10/10 Overall a brilliant album!

I know about the deluxe album (heard it before, of course) and I love it, I think it's Gaga's best....The way she's not taking herself seriously....because that's exactly what life wants you to do...take it seriously so it can torment you.....She's taking the listener for a ride...You sit comfortably, Gaga's in charge, the artist takes care of you......she;s open and makes you feel relaxed and self-confident about yourself facing the world. Brilliant album.... Also the artistic quality of melody and interpretation is exquisite in my opinion....Think this is trash? Think again...This Girl is a Monster of a Talented and Hardworking Artist....her success is not taken for granted..... I want to buy it but there is no info here that says if it's the Explicit Version - that's the one I'm looking for - or Not, so if anyone can help me....Someone who has bought the DeLuxe CD, I'm not talking about the mp3......Please.....I already ordered it.....I don't want to be disappointed when I receive it...... Received the *Double-CD* and it's NOT the explicit version !!!!! Shame on you amazondotcodotuk..and you customer service who told me it was explicit..... I don't know why you people do this....What... Has the "Explicit" stock been emptied and now you're selling the crumbs from your table (i.e.: clean ***censored*** versions). If GAGA is to be listened and enjoyed for her true beauty it needs to be explicit....For she's not running from herself with this kind of album....she's staying true to herself, unlike the majority of people in our society today. And she's advising you gently but firmly to stay true to yourself too.....So take a listen ..... So my advice for all you people who read this is DON'T buy this CD here....You'll be misinformed and angry ! 5 Billion stars for Gaga's album and minus 5 stars for amazon....... Don't buy from here.

Great Cd as described , 2 cds in case , would buy again

Granddaughter happy

Good tracks and sounds good, enjoyable to listen to

Lady Gaga never disappoints - she has created a whole new genre. I got "Born This Way " first, and got her other albums in reverse - have finally caught up. Can't wait for the Art Pop due for release any time now! This music not only appeals to teenagers, I am a grandmother. My time was in the 70's, I was a T Rex / Bowie / Stones / Pink Floyd / Aerosmith fan and went on to enjoy happy hardcore and rock - some bands are still on the go and I still enjoy listening to them. Lady GaGa appeared on stage with the Stones - and gained a lot of respect in my book and from many others. She's a PROPER musician - nothing fake about her except of course the wigs, she's much deeper than that. Listen to her lyrics - which are her own, and take a look past the wigs, performance costumes, lipstick and so on - a great artist and performer deserving of credit and attention.

Good delivery and disks were fine. Great value for money and a classic collection of tracks.

It is good 👍

Me ha llegado muy bien, amo este álbum, aunque sea un EP, para mí es el mejor álbum que tiene lady gaga, es la definición de la re invención del pop, lo cambio todo, icónica, diva era (me compré también el vinilo de born this way) jaja

Tres bon vinyle picture disc, son parfait

ガガ 最高❢ ドライブが楽しい

A timeless masterpiece! Gaga's best work yet. Gives me so much nostalgia of the late 2000s! This is REAL MUSIC.

Was haben Künstler wie Lauryn Hill ("The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill"), Guns 'n Roses ("Appetite for Destruction"), Sex Pistols ("Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols", Bruce Springsteen ("Born in the U.S.A."), Oasis ("(What's the Story) Morning Glory?"), Adele ("21"), Radiohead("OK Computer"), Terence Trent d'Arby ("Introducing the Hardline According to..."), Prince ("Purple Rain"), Alanis Morissette ("Jagged Little Pill") und Norah Jones ("Come Away With Me") gemeinsam? Richtig! Obwohl sie allesamt mehrere Alben veröffentlichten, könnte man an einem bestimmten Album DEN repräsentativen Querschnitt ihres Schaffens und am Ende ihren daraus folgenden Einfluss auf die Musikgeschichte nachvollziehen. Theoretisch ließe sich diese Liste noch um den einen oder anderen Star erweitern, ob auch Lady Gaga in diese illustre Gruppe gehört, möchte ich jedoch noch nicht orakeln. Dennoch ist recht deutlich, dass ihr Doppelalbum "The Fame Monster" quasi alles über sie und ihre Musik aussagt, was man irgendwann noch wissen müssen muss. Jeder, aber auch wirklich jeder Titel ist ein veritabler Hit und egal welche der beiden Scheiben ich einschmeiße, sie sind ein gern gehörter Begleiter auf meinen täglichen Trainings-Sessions. Mal ordentlich Beat, dann auch mal eine eingängige Melodie, passable Texte (wenn man sich mal auf diese fokussiert) und damit eine der musikalischen Repräsentantinnen der 2000er. Meine Favoriten bleiben natürlich das fast schon sarkastische "Alejandro" und ihre Pop-Hymne "Pokerface". Da auch 95% der anderen Songs in die Knaller-Kategorie fallen, muss man hier schon fast von ihrem "Supernova"-Moment sprechen, denn alles, was danach kam, war zwar ebenfalls stets mehr als nur gut, aber die absolute Radio-Dominanz hatte und hat sie wohl überwiegend mit diesen Hits erreicht und/oder gehalten. Diesbezüglich teilt sie sich wohl den Thron mit Legenden wie Madonna. Ein wunderbares (Doppel-)Album, eine Sternschnuppe am Pop-Himmel und daher: Volume up und ab damit!
