That was crazy. I mean, like, thinking about what she had to go through. I mean, she's a really gritty performer. Like, this is somebody that, like, I mean, she will.

Pain. I mean, I barely can walk after I go to, like, one CrossFit for, like, a month. No, but I'm just saying, like, she really works that. Like, she's where she is for a reason. Talent and, like, really hard worker.

A lot of favorites. Love Killer.

Killer to me is like, okay, so what I like about Mayhem a lot is that beyond just sort of going and re-indexing her own work, which I do think this is doing very well, it's also re-indexing her influences. Like, I think she's going back to what she, what formed her musical identity. Yeah. So I hear a lot of Prince on this album. I hear a lot of David Bowie on this album.

I hear Michael Jackson on Shadow of a Man. I hear, you know, Blondie. I hear Nine Inch Nails on Perfect Celebrity. Oh, yes. Wait, I heard that too.

Yes, exactly. Exactly. So I think that that's a helpful angle that helps it get past just being like pure Gaga pastiche. Mm-hmm. So that's how I'm thinking about it. So Killa to me is like one of the most, like the songs I least feel like links directly back to old Gaga songs. Like I hear that song and I'm not able to draw one to one like I am with some of the other songs.

I'm like, oh, this is that and that and that. It sounds like Bowie. It sounds like Prince. It's got kind of that wild abandoned, like let's just try something sort of crazy feeling that I really missed from Gaga songs. It's kooky. It's weird. Some of the lyrics are like evidently silly, but I just think like it's so much fun. And like that's the kind of energy I'm looking for in a Gaga song.
