I ordered the CD from Amazon while at Skip's last weekend, and downloaded it when I got home on Sunday. I think this is her best album since her first, The Fame and The Fame Monster. It has good songs, and more important, it is mastered much better than Born This Way and Artpop. Born This Way is almost unlistenable, and Artpop is only a little better sound wise.
Anyway, if you like her then go ahead and get it.

Bud - Heard her perform the Million Reasons live on Howard Stern this week. Brought half of those in the studio to tears. Fantastic performance from a ridiculously talented musician/singer. Her live performances are always a notch above her studio recordings. Not sure if this link will work or not:

... ridiculously talented musician/singer.
+1 to that, Al.
My oldest daughter gave me this as a "joke" Christmas gift a couple of years ago. It's been hanging in my main listening area ever since.

Her version of the National Anthem at the 2016 Super Bowl still brings tears to my eyes. I love this woman.

She is extremely talented and very shrewd as well. I think there's a straight line from Sir Elton John (i.e., the former Reg Dwight) to Ms Germanotta -- a line that passes through (metaphorically speaking, of course!) that Madonna lady (not to be confused with Lady Madonna!).
Now, as to why the titular album of this thread might sound better
