    Vemos a una Gaga, que da un giro de 180° en su carrera, Joanne es lo mas opuesto a Artpop, aunque este giro era un poco predecible tras CTC. Nos muestra su lado mas intimo, el de su familia como de una u otra manera estos la influenciaron en su vida, la muerte de su tía joanne, quien le da el nombre al álbum, el cual aborda mas temas, desde la masturbación femenina, la lucha por el cáncerVemos a una Gaga, que da un giro de 180° en su carrera, Joanne es lo mas opuesto a Artpop, aunque este giro era un poco predecible tras CTC. Nos muestra su lado mas intimo, el de su familia como de una u otra manera estos la influenciaron en su vida, la muerte de su tía joanne, quien le da el nombre al álbum, el cual aborda mas temas, desde la masturbación femenina, la lucha por el cáncer de una de sus mas fieles amigas Sonja, quien posteriormente fallecería, abusos policíacos, el amor, la ganas de comerse el mundo. A nivel se sonidos tenemos un albur mas orgánico, con claras influencias pop, rock y country principalmente. Las mejores canciones son sin lugar a duda. Million Reasons, Perfect Illusion, Angel Down, Joanne y dancin' in circles. Expand

    Best **** album of the year GAGA QUEEN, algo nunca visto en Gaga y que se agradece una retrospectiva a su carrera a todo lo que ha tenido que pasar. Muy infravalorado porque las maricas solo quieren perrear en las discos y pàsan de llorar.

    You've got to say this is an album that expresses Lady Gaga herself, without all the eccentric costumes, she remained down-to-earth and a true artist.

    Un disco muy personal, representó en cada letra lo que siente, ella misma lo escribió. Canciones en las que se puede apreciar el gran rango vocal de Gaga y nuevos sonidos originales de ella.

    A beautiful album constructed by miss Gaga. Truly showing of her versatility as an artist. The composition sways through numerous tracks but still has the cohesiveness to make this album. Such a beautiful album with such personal meaning

    Joanne made me change my way of seeing love and family. This album is very deep and proves once again the versatility of Lady Gaga.

    This album is Gaga’s VOCAL PRIME. It’s a stripped down album, very delicate but powerful at the same time and it’s the singer’s most intimate record.

    She brought back the vocalist-era with this magnificent album. The whole album itself tells us more about Gaga's love for her family and for the people around her. Bravo.

    she bares it all
    she gives it all
    she said it all
    her most personal, vulnerable yet one of the most powerful work to date through the message and the feelings you'll experience from track 1 to the end.

    The Monster didn't make me fall in love with Gaga, Born This Way didn't make me fall in love with Gaga, ARTPOP didn't make me fall in love with Gaga. But Joanne did. It's the album that lets me know about real Gaga. And I just love the way she is without those high heels and makeup and fancy dresses. Just the girl with a cowboy hat and a guitar

    She's very intimistc in this album, when you are listening to Diamond Heart you're getting all the pain that she's living.

    Joanne confirmed what we all knew: Lady Gaga continues to surprise and never tire of trying to reinvent herself. Versatility. Raw and perfect vocals.

    Frio e crú. Um bom álbum de todas as formas. De uma música mais dançante como Perfect illusion, e a mais fria a triste como Angel Down

    Flawed though it is, this brave and canny album hits the reset button and buys her a future. [Jan 2017, p.105]

    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.
