Lady Gaga: Born This Way (Full Album) - Amazon MP3 - $0.99

[SunnyD]

99 cents for a full mainstream pop album.

Download as MP3 or use via Amazon's MP3 Cloud service.

 

[MagickMan]

Nice deal, but I still can't make myself to spend .99 for it.

 

[IceBergSLiM]

the closet queens will love this one.

 

[Schmide]

I bought this for my mangina

 

[wirednuts]

ive never heard any of this gaga stuff yet, but this chick seems like a mix of marilyn manson with madonna... just going by the advertising.

Saw this on slickdeals and picked it up this morning. Killer deal on the hottest album of the year. Note that Amazon is getting WRECKED by all the sales though and it might be a few days before you can actually download the full album. Right now I can only stream four of the songs.

 

[polypterus]

That album cover is just... disturbing. D:

 

[MagickMan]

No, it's the just the cover, Gaga is disturbing.

 

[airdata]

that's my jam.

 

[Ricochet]

Not a fan but in for one. Why not? It's only $1.

Not a fan either, but I bought it anyways. It's not bad - I'm an 80's music fan, and it does have sort of an 80's feel to it (IMO)

I grabbed it last night when the deal went live and Amazon Twittered it. I have to admit, I'm a bit of a fan. I like my women freaky like that.

For those that just can't admit to liking her or her music, go with the extra 20G's of storage space included for $.99 as your reason for buying it.

Whoa, right up there in the pantheon of bad album/CD covers.

At 99 cents, I guess the record company is artificially trying to bolster first week sales. Prince was able to chart high by giving away concert CD freebees, but those type of figures are no longer counted toward official sales.

I have close to zero interest in the artist, but if the song is one intended to make a statement about the nature of homosexuality that corrects the bigots, I'm tempted to buy it just to support (in terms of adding a sale, the 0.99 is hardly monetary help) the cause.

The cover and her music explains a lot ...

:thumbsup: I was thinking the same thing, I listened to the title track out of morbid curiousity and it actually has a positive message.

I love amazon (and the cloud service)! I was able to buy the mainstream and the special edition at a cost that's less than the special edition from itunes. Great deal for this closet fan.

She really is. Though I'd throw in a little Lords of Acid, too.

I think she's made no bones about the fact that she's a "performance artist", not just a pop star. So that helps put things in perspective. At least she writes her own music and performs it with passion.

IMO, this album isn't as good as her first ("The Fame")... which isn't to say it's bad.

I'm reading this as a lead loss by Amazon to get more people using their music and cloud services.

It took a couple hours to finally download, but i'm rocking it now.

<-- Gaga fan.

Yes, and I agree, that is until you see the music video and then you're like . Though I'm still a (minor) fan.

[Udgnim]

like most of her live performances. don't care as much for the album versions of her songs, but for 0.99 cents for an entire album, eh sure

Probably like a Groupon deal - a little bit of both.
