lyrics have always been great and subversive. music video has aged like wine

 

but that's about it. it has the worst production out of any song on its parent album, and also out of any of Gaga's hits  Hair should've taken its place tbh

[Doctor Dick]

Yes which is why it's a Pride classic. 

[Big Bad Wolf]

Boring topic!

 

It's an 80s inspired track in 2010. How well should it age? The message aged well, the intent of the song aged well, its influence on society and culture aged well. It's a gay classic for a reason. 

[Almodusa]

The instrumental is electronic delish, her vocal delivery is determined, sincere, and cvnt, and majority of lyrics still hold strong 

[Namiskine]

I actually bop more to it nowadays than I used to when it got released, so yes 

[Gladiator]

A timeless classic, I fear.

[Kimmo]

They play it at HEB all the time so is definitely a classic, I even heard Free Woman as well. I'm beginning to think whoever picks the playlist for the stores is either a Liddo or a Power Bottom… 

[YourFavoriteWeapon]

The mixing really hurts my ears  But it's a great song

[VioletsandRoses]

I never liked it. We R Who We R, Firework and Raise Yout Glass were better empowerment anthems 

[TipToe]

Oh please it was born middle agedt

[magazine]

It's literally a pop masterpiece, of course it did

[Supervillain]

It's timeless. Heard it at the club one month ago and the whole room was shaking!

[technoprayer]

the way I used to be TERRIFIED of the ending (when she's walking on the street) when I was little. classic song even if the production is a bit eehh & amazing video 

[wastedpotential]

I do give it strihms from time to time but I usually finish the song with a bit of a migraine because the mix is a bit... overwhelming

[NOW]

It was a 3/5 on arrival but it feels like a solid 4/5 now, it aged very well.

[ericcartman]

Dated on arrival 

[Mtjjproducer]

The video is cool but this song is a god awful dated on arrival  overproduced mess. 
 

the lyrics and melody deserve a better instrumental

It's a great song and that album made me a fan of her but I always found the production of BTW song was weak, it's missing some profoundness in the instrumental

The irony of these songs having aged horribly and representing the worst of 2010s dance-pop tropes

[Paparazzaid]

I didn't like it back then and I still don't like it now. One of my least favorite singles by Gaga along with Stupid Love and MR

 

That being said, the song is a classic now and one of the biggest gay anthems of all time.

Dated doesn't mean bad. They are much catchier 

[Summerboy95]

YES.

[єѕℓαм]

It's played on every pride every year for a reason 

[gab00]

Yes. born this way >>> poker face.
