Watching this made me kinda emotional. I'm 29 now, and I remember in high school I fell in love with her as an artist. I remember we looked similar, and I would hear those compliments time to time because she was becoming more known. I miss this era
People don’t realize how these huge artists were used as money makers and not humans, Even Whitney said that the LABELS want IT QUICK. This is why when ARTPOP underperformed her label just moved on and forgot about her.
She spoke about this at a University back in 2015. “I was just a money making machine”-Gaga Another reason why she decided to collaborate with Tony Bennett.
This documentary made me so weirdly emotional. What a time to be alive when The Fame and all that was happening. She made weirdos feel safe and appreciated. I think her kindness will be what she's the most remembered for.
artpop amazes me bc it's simultaneously nostalgic and futuristic. nobody in pop was as experimental and forward-sounding as she was on that album, and yet it was also a love letter to and a last hurrah of the self-reverent Pop Icon era. honestly, i think people were just not ready for that kind of sound yet. gorillaz did a similar pop-electro-hiphop-experimental album in 2017 and it was a massive commercial success. i'm not saying gaga is better than gorillaz, but i definitely think she was ahead of the curve ❤
@@WerewolfCat890 I fully agree! It’s on a whole mother level of artistry and it’s this blend of classical and contemporary art, and she managed to honor that while also not taking it too seriously. It’s still so fun and so Gaga. Waaay ahead of its time, if it came out now it would be regarded differently I think. Regardless, I’m in love with it.
She hasn’t peaked. Her career has evolved. Obviously you have to transition from a pop star in your youth unless you want to end up like Madonna. Gaga has won acclaim in her film roles and she’s moving along just fine. It doesn’t make sense for her to record more pop music at this point. She’s made her mark and that’s that.
I LOVE your videos! Such high quality content and excellent critiques! I have a suggestion for a video- You should do a video on Barbra Streisand. More specifically her 1994 concert tour. It was her first time singing live in 25 years and the whole tour sold out in just a few minutes. The phone systems crashed because so many people were calling to get tickets. It was truly a time when Barbra captured lightening in a bottle. Again, thanks for the great content!
A lot of little monsters including me do not want to admit it but Gaga peaked in 2012. She's still huge, immensely successful, selling out stadiums and is still one of the most respected artists in the industry but her pop music might is sadly gone. She seems to notice this too, her music career is taking a back burner now. Chromatica is a huge welcome back to the Gaga that fans love so much, the setlist on the ball also highlights her peak days. I hope another album brings her back to the top spot in pop music.
I agree to an extent but her achievements since then have propped her up fro icon to legend. Seh has the staying power that this video was talking about.
@@thegmanpaints you’re right she does have a staying power but not through pop music. Her acting roles cement her to new heights but I believe 20 years should be a testament, I love her but 20 years less does not make an icon.
Madonna herself only talked about similarities in the chord changes being asked about it for the first time and THANKS GOD no one own a chord prog' since every song made would mean someone to pay then. 😶😶
looking back it made no sense they compared her to Madonna I don’t think anything she did or Madonna have any similarities at all except a couple things mentioned she had to stop cause her hip got fucked up, something I think happened with her label too, and abuse of drugs if that didn’t happen I think she could’ve sustained it all
She broke her hip which caused to the cancellation of the BTW tour, her management quit on her whilst also fighting a case against a former manager. Insterscope basically dropped her and started to promote Katy and Miley instead. And then she found Mr Tony Bennett
Please do documentaries on Etta James, Dinah Washington, Neneh Cherry, Emeli Sande, Shawn Mendes, Nelly Furtado, Joan Rivers (about her legacy as a trailblazer in comedy), Troye Sivan, Mariah Carey, Zayn Malik, and Robyn.
Lady gaga makes the outcasts and the people that are different like me, thats why she is such an icon, she somehow has a niche and yet has a huge audience, shes a freak and she freaking loves it
Way back in Jr high, my friend showed me a song - & it was a bop! Then the lyric "I wanna take a ride on your disco stick" hit. First I thought who in the world writes such sexual+comedic lyric? My very next thought was: how on earth did my friend find such a weird and obscure artist/song? - is my friend secretly Hella Horny and this is sexed up niche genre that he actively seeks out? Of course by the end of the night I'd fallen in love with Lady gaga as an artist too! But for a brief period I did question how well I REALLY I knew my friend. So, like you said, her lyrics in that first album were fantastically absurd to grab attention, which luckily she actually had the songwriting & musical chops (+ her compassionate outspoken advocacy) to keep you realed in once she had your attention. Same could be said about her early Fashion, she knew how to get the world's attention. PS. I actually dressed up as "dead" lady gaga for halloween the very year that my friend first played her for me 👩🏼🎤
She's not done yet: she became a successful actress, Madonna never could due to her arrogance, she did some pop numbers and, for now, let's wait for what she can invent. Actually, it seems to me that she does better than Beyonce, without the adoring and unconditional trust support of the black community. Go on Gagging us, GaGa
The time has changed, the conditions has changed. Madonna was the greatest pop star. Gaga is the last. In today's conditions, I don't think we will ever see Gaga (2008-2013) like pop icon. The very concept of pop star is dead now. Madonna was first, Britney was second Gaga was the last. After 2013, we have only moments of pop music (Miley's Bangerz era, Ariana thank u next era etc.) but we can't find a proper pop star. I think you are confused about one thing: success doesn't mean a great pop star. Gaga is still successful, Taylor is even more successful but their impact is not like that of Gaga in 2008-2013 or Madonna of 1985-1998 or Britney of 1999-2007. Pop star in that sense is actually not a choice of fans, Taylor has a huge fan base but in 1989, everyone in the world know who is Madonna. It is not a choice. Even if you don't like her, you are EXPOSED to Madonna. That type of domination is gone. Now, there is diversity, there are more pop singers, there are more genres. Simply, what Madonna symbolizes is divided into Ariana, Taylor, Dua etc.
@@uguryldrm9060 Maybe your point of view is on the (b)right side, I m not entirely sure, but the topic was: Madonna versus Lady Gaga, and for me, you went much too far with your epochal reading of the current pop music perception -talking about the women side, of course -.
Lol dead on with under and overlying meanings. She would get at everyone before they knew it. They hate Artpop because she utterly destroyed her critics..check the underlying meaning of the song Swine..🤣 I F*** with Gaga💪🏿
Loved the video, but I feel like as of lately Born this Way less known song are getting popular with tiktok I feel like Artpop will be next, Venus and G.U.Y are my bets
I don't think she'll ever be just 'another name'. Thats just silly, and in the past tense. Just recently her Chromatica Ball Tour was a great success. She’ll always be making music, being creative on screen, whatever she does, It’s who she is. She’s a living icon. And when she passes away, that’s how she’ll be remembered, and celebrated.
NO ONE will repeat what LG did in the first 3 years of her rise to STARDOM and in the last 15 years to culture in general, as she had the greatest impact on everything, including fashion today, artists today, songs many try to write like her today (or, if not, then they write mostly shit), have concept, and dance while singing, etc. And I can't believe what a nonsense I hear in parts from this man!!! Sampled Madonna? Born This Way was inspired by the church singer Carl Bean. We were all foking inspired during Born This Way Era, no one knew Express Yourself because it didn't have a story or concept behind it and was just another stupid MDNA song, unlike BTW where it was the movement of all the people to make this world kinder and better place - it had us SCREAMING "We can do it if she did!". (Have you seen Gaga perform Born This Way? Every time that was a BLAST!!! Express Yourself anyone?..) Secondly, are you being serious saying no one knew Million Reasons when performed on Super Bowl? The song went N1 in many countries, hater. I think Gaga's Super Bowl was the best of them all. And I can judge due to my musical roots and understanding. It was meticulously made by Genius to us, mortals.
i found this video too late or not....as my twitter being full of gaga being cookie cutter the final minutes of your video explains everything. a woman in a bob wig made a change in the world.
You must be too young…but Gaga was MEGA. Nothing compared like today. I mean, while everybody was running away from the paparazzi, Gaga gave them runway shows every single day something different. Dula peep is just another mediocre pop singer.
@@NobleWolf33 Don't worry I love Gaga I was able to get to know her from fame to her last album Chromatica. She will never be replaced by Dua Lipa. But still, we can never deny that Dua is a pop superstar too not at the same level as Gaga of course but still she is one. Gaga is irreplaceable
She went from being the most exciting thing in music to the most exciting thing in film. I can see her conquering broadway next.
She has immense history with Musical Theatre! She will definitely get a Tony award.
She’ll conquer that, too.
😢😢😮😮🎉
@@emergencytrip ❤
God I hope she goes broadway.

I was a child, but remember the fact that Gaga was a Revolution in the industry, when she was born like artist.
Growing up in this era of music is almost something you can't even explain. I miss it!
What a time to be alive and experiencing life for the first time with all of that going on. 😎 glad to be apart of it
SHE IS THE MOMENT!!!
Love her or hate her, there's no denying her influence. She's a legend
Artpop was just ahead of its time. It’s my favourite album of hers and I love the visuals from that era. It did indeed go over many heads.
My favorite are The Fame and Artpop. I don’t think she was trying too hard, Artpop had amazing visuals and lots of great experimental sounds

the way she knows camp, couture, drag, and lgbt culture. love her
Now this is Content ! ❤she's really a unique kind of artist!
great video! thats my second ive watched I love both so far!
She every time come back 🙏🏼

I'm a bit confused by your comment, because Gaga herself admits that she is strongly influenced by Madonna.
The closest thing to Madonna that we have to date.
She broke her hip which caused to the cancellation of the BTW tour, her management quit on her whilst also fighting a case against a former manager. Insterscope basically dropped her and started to promote Katy and Miley instead.
And then she found Mr Tony Bennett

15:40 I like this reference to Poker Face and that fact you can’t hide laughing 😂
I never been a huge Gaga fan, she isn't my cup of tea but she always seems so uplifting and emporia
wow, those last five minutes you really hit the nail on the head - something a lot of gaga fans don't want to admit but it's true
Gaga fans who live and breathe art with every fiber of their being disagree.
Please do a documentary on Selena, the absolute queen!! 💜
She reminds me Joan Crawford.

Loved this! Great editing.
Didn't she write songs for Brittany and others b4 she got big
This documentary is so amazing. Thank you ❤️ 😊
So. Good.
Bjork+Harajuku+mainstream conceptual art+ euro electronic music= gaga
No mention of Akon nah???
Red one! KONVICT 🗣️🗣️🗣️ Gaga!
She was great up until born this way
My favorite are The Fame and Artpop. I don’t think she was trying too hard, Artpop had amazing visuals and lots of great experimental sounds
Better than Madonna, without a doubt: she can really sing and play the piano, but she cannot dance, that's the only limit I see in her.
Are you kidding?! How she cannot dance? She’s amazing dancer!
I can’t even think of early gaga without the choreography
I noticed that Madonna is more of a performer than a vocalist whilst Gaga is more theatrical with perfect vocals.
She's not done yet: she became a successful actress, Madonna never could due to her arrogance, she did some pop numbers and, for now, let's wait for what she can invent. Actually, it seems to me that she does better than Beyonce, without the adoring and unconditional trust support of the black community. Go on Gagging us, GaGa

Shame she can't keep reinventing herself forever. Or can she?
I mean…she’s obviously not in 2009. She’s become a household name.

Disease is out 2024
see killed her friend apparently pushing her off a rooftop bar She is very much derivative of 'Club Kids' in the early 90's
Gaga was nowhere near Lina they stayed in different hotels. They were both in different locations when the incident happened .
Gaga has too many haters
Dua lipa can be another pop superstar in my opinion for the future
No.
Dula peep
