Some songs I can't stand (Americano, Judas, Born This Way) and others I actually like (Hair, Edge of Glory, Scheibe) and the rest have good elements to them but tend to feel anti-climactic at points and sometimes doesn't flow well. It annoys me when they have good. Bloody Mary's chorus is a little weak and every time I hear it my brain wants to start singing "Don't you want me baby?" that song from the 80s, Government Hooker is kinda annoying, Bad Kids's chorus is very awkward - it's like, "what?" it doesn't flow at all, Highway Unicorn I like the overall feel to it and the powerful feeling it has but can't help but feel it's missing like the extra 5% from making it super, Electic Chapel is great and I love the "doot dootoo" stuff (also reminds me of another song from the past can't put my finger on it) but the chorus is just so watery it sounds like something leading up to a powerful chorus so it fails to give you that KICK in the face some of GaGa's most powerful, catchy and best tunes do.

I like the chorus of Hair and Scheibe the most because they have a genius melody and power to them. Still can't really get what she is screaming sometimes in Hair but the melody sounds good so I won't complain, lol.

Overall, nothing on this album is better than Bad Romance, Love Game, Alejandro, Monster, - only thing that this album beats for the majority is Teeth and Telephone. Lol.

Rating: 3/5 2/5 Would have been a 3 (well maybe a 2.5) but GaGa so overly hyped this as her best work ever and really it is anything but.
