There's an incredible album, their songs are emotional, like Joanne, Million Reasons, it feels like a little bit Born This Way lyrics, but in a different way, obviously a little "country" way, but it's a really good album, maybe her best album in a years, very emotional, I really love it! Beautiful Gaga! That's all girl!… Expand

Su trabajo mas personal, y si, quizas no tenga los ritmos cañeros de The Fame, el barroquismo de The Fame Monster, la critica socias de Born This Way, o los estribillos de Artpop, pero el disco tiene un mensaje familiar y humanitario, quizas estemos ante el mejor disco de Gaga… Expand

    It's a huge change, she took all those old sounds and changed into something new and fresh. She took a big risk, but she conquered it with an interesting new record: Joanne.

    Amazing album, amazing lyrics and melodies. The only problem is that she don't know how to pick singles, she picked Perfect Illusion, instead of Hey Girl or Dancin' in Circles. She did it like she did in 2013 with Applause as single.

    Joanne is clearly Gaga's most personal album, popping aside the synthetic personas for something more honest and, well, human. Mother Monster may be retired for now, but Lady Gaga's sheer musical brilliance still shines through,with its "flaws and all"—was a correct musical step for Gaga, which he believed would make "fans and observers once again rethink what they know about the daring diva

    "Joanne" is perhaps the best album of Lady Gaga since Born This Way in 2011. Takes us on a journey from the classic American adrenaline in "Diamond heart" to the nostalgia of the physical loss of a loved one in "Joanne", or a manifesto and social criticism with songs like the beautiful and darkness "Angel down".

    There is any doubt that Lady Gaga has created (not a masterpiece, though) a beautiful album which is leading her to reach a higher point of her career. With little experimental sounds of country, rock and even doo woop has gained to her more credibility as an artist and making her to create an over-the-top album.

    Joanne still represents a striking course correction for Lady Gaga. By abandoning the dance club for the dive bar, she may have tossed aside her status as a pop star once and for all. But Gaga has emerged as something better and truer.

    After "ARTPOP", Lady Gaga gives us her new studio album, a country/pop/rock experiment, but we still are trying to understand if ever she has returned. Apparently the songs want to give an impression of depth of feelings and thought, but all that remains is the delicacy of "Joanne" and the energy of "John Wayne". What about the rest?

Apparently the songs want to give an impression of depth of feelings and thought, but all that remains is the delicacy of "Joanne" and the energy of "John Wayne". What about the rest? It just seems created to give her the possibility to show us how powerful her voice is. Well... we knew it already, now it's about time Lady Gaga shows what she really is, it can't radically and continuously change so rapidly. My question to the talented and gifted Lady Gaga is "Girl, where do you think you're going?"… Expand

    I would have never expected the album to be this good and I am a fan. From start to finish. From the Bon Jovi like Diamond Heart to Angel Down. Solid. Highlights would be A-yo, Diamond Heart, Joanne, Hey Girl, John Wayne, Sinner's prayer and Angel Down. That was almost the whole album, wasn't it ? The vocals are unbelievable and the melodies are beautiful. Very pleased with thisI would have never expected the album to be this good and I am a fan. From start to finish.

    This is an album that everyone needs in their home. It's her best album yet. Joanne is a masterpiece, I had it in replay since the day it was released. Every song is a killer hit. Lady Gaga's is the best singer-songwriter ever.

    I have to admit, I was skeptical of this album after hearing her first single "Perfect Illusion." The single was too shrill, repetitive, and overall unpleasant. It lacked that "gaga" hook or melody. It just wasn't my cup of tea. However, after hearing this album, that song was the weakest.

This album showcases Gaga's diversity in genres of music, and truly highlights her musical artistry. Unlike her past albums, this one is more raw and honest. In certain songs like "Ayo," "John Wayne," and "Dancin' In Circles" all have an uptempo and in pounding chorus that is irresistible to not dance. Furthermore, her ballads "Joanne," "Million Reasons," and "Angel Down" are all extremely powerful. They show her broken down, honest, and raw talent, which really shines through. Possibly her most interesting collaboration that she has done, in the song "Hey Girl" makes for a soulful and beautiful girl anthem that will have everyone grooving too. Overall, this album is truly a "rebranding" of the classic Gaga, and a more refined and mature collection of songs that express her beautiful artistry!… Expand

    This album is so amazing, very great vocals, the songs are very good. I really what she did in this amazing album. It sounds a modern. Her vocal is very powerful and stronger. I love most of the musics. Million reasons is so amazing, dancin' in circles very good to dance. Angel down is my favorite song of this album. Grigio girls is a very good and stronger song. I love it so much.

    PERFECT, just like the illusion. Somehow, she just keeps getting better. Bloodpop does a wonderful job of making some of the more retro-sounding songs sounds modern, and Gaga's vocals are more powerful than ever. This album is going to be on repeat for quite awhile.

So, i decided to research on her and i found that her has a jazz album glorious with legend Tony Bennett. Another surprise! So, i decided to wait for the release this, Joanne. And... DAMN!!! I'm surprised again. You have a powerful voice Lady Gaga. And this album is uncooked and so genuine. Congrats! You won a new fan :)… Expand

    One of the biggest trends in pop music is big stars releasing "personal", "authentic" albums with more stripped-back production and less club-ready dance songs.

I'm not interested in debating the authenticity of the album, but as someone who has always liked Gaga's voice though never much of her music, I think this is a really solid album. It definitely has a strong country/Americana influence, and she has the rawness in her voice to sell that. It isn't perfect, but it's a huge step in the right direction after the messy ARTPOP.… Expand

    Unfortunately, therein lies the biggest problem with Joanne: for every time that Gaga seemingly breaks free of her shackles and embraces something more “real,” she quickly scuttles back into her comfort zone and hides behind glistening production. This probably isn’t quite the sound of the real Stefani Germanotta, but if you squint hard enough there’s a semblance of a real person in amongst the pop haze.

    Joanne is certainly not the all-conquering opus it was intended to be and will prove divisive, but it remains a daring and exciting record, delivered from one of modern pop’s most unique and singular voices.
