Vroom Vroom Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Interscope heard all of Joanne (which originally did not include PI) and asked her to go back in the studio to record a lead single She then made Perfect Illusion and gave it to Interscope. Who knows if she was trying to make a point or if she thought it was actually lead single material

hausofdave Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Applause ended up being her biggest radio hit and one of her longest staying Top 10 residency's on the Hot 100, i'd say it was rightfully picked 6

SweetOreosOfHeaven Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Applause was a great choice. It's my second favorite lead single after Bad Romance and the video is just delicious. Do What U Want was the only better choice for a lead single on ARTPOP, just soundwise, but considering everything that went down, I'm glad it wasn't. Perfect Illusion just didn't sound like a hit in any way, shape, or form. Stupid Love well, I'll say the video was the more baffling decision, I think the song is okay but it didn't wow anyone.
SweetOreosOfHeaven Posted February 19 Posted February 19 I watched that video essay on ARTPOP, and I liked it a lot; after getting through the more over-the-top social justice-y parts, she provides a very interesting analysis of the album's theme. The album has been getting a lot of recognition these past couple of years. I can see it getting a revival on streaming, ala, BTW, sooner rather than later. Spoiler Gags releasing would help of course 1

Jack! Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) Yeah actually in hindsight I think Applause was a good lead single. Iirc she wanted Sexxx Dreams (and/or Burqa when that was a thing, right?) but I never saw that doing anything major for her. Applause (and Aura for that matter) could have been bigger with some lyrical tweaking but that was a recurring issue with ARTPOP. To the general listener lyrics about Jeff Koons and banging gongs seems nonsensical. My friend still argues with me that the post-chorus lyrics to that song are "baby it's the end of you and me" instead of "A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E". Idk lyrically I think it's just a bit all over the shop. It also would have never been a good idea to sign off on a song called Burqa so I'm glad they changed that, but that songs intro lets it down too. And on top of all that the fact they humoured an R Kelly collaboration on a song with DWUW's lyrical substance wasn't great from her or her team. I'm glad she was able to get away from that in the end, but it's a shame cause with a different collaborator I feel like DWUW could have also been way bigger than what it was. Overall an era of missed opportunities. Edited February 19 by Jack! 4 1
