Born this way, baby!

FINALLY came the day yesterday (couldn’t focus to blog there), when I could at long long long last hold Lady Gagas new album in my hands, and much better yet, actually listen to the whole thing 🙂

I must however admit, I was a little worried, I did not read any reviews about the album beforehand, simply because I wanted to be surprised. What worried me was that this is pretty much her second album (The Fame Monster is more like 1.5), and a follow up to the first fantastic album did set the bar pretty high, and although Gaga is amazing, its usually harder the second time around.

So how was it? Were my expectations met? Has she done it again?

There is no longer ANY bit of doubt left in my mind and heart, Gaga is here to stay! This album… Its fuckin’ amazing! Lady Gaga is without equal on the musical stage. Every single track on the album (and she treated us to 17 + a bonus disc with 6 remixes) simply makes me move and its hard to resist dancing along.

So which number is my favorite? Well kinda hard to say as I really love them all, but I admit that “Marry The Night”, “Hair” and “The Edge Of Glory” really gets to me 😉

And the girl herself is so generous with her fans, yesterday she spent 5 hours in the Best Buy of Times Square, signing autographs and posing for photos with fans along the release of the album, apparently she also felt so bad about the long wait she even made sure that the fans were not hungry and all got sandwiches from Subway.

Had it not been such a trouble visiting USA (compared to other countries were you just book a flight usually), that is something that would have made me pretty much drop anything so I could be there and met her.  Seeing the rest of New York had been secondary to being in this queue and meeting her.
