CottageHore Posted October 23 Posted October 23 1 hour ago, Almighty Gaga said: You'll be getting similar material in the future if this proves successful. It's in your best interest. Success is a message for the artist about what people want or don't want Similar to how Gaga's HAC material has resonated since Million Reasons, so she's been releasing more of that sound. Not these mental gymnastics the majority of the people here who obsess about charts do it because they're obsessed with charts, it's not that deep. Just enjoy the music for whatever it is in the moment! 1
lef Posted October 23 Posted October 23 idgaf about the charts and i will be streaming if it's good, but all of you "why do you care about the charts, just enjoy the music!!!" people will be the first to celebrate if it smashes... 2

GagaChina Posted October 24 Posted October 24 predict its first week debut? top 10 is a success for me
MatiRod Posted October 24 Posted October 24 2 hours ago, HonourableVomit said: Judas is a fantastic song, even if clearly an attempt to remake BR structurally. The disaster of it commercially was really a mix of the Easter release thing, people being put off by BTW (single and video) and the tide overall turning against the maximalism/"weirdness" that she'd become synonymous with, this is exactly the moment Adele was rising meteorically following Someone Like You at the Brit Awards. Edge of Glory probably actually benefitted from having a no frills video that didn't put people off, in hindsight, maybe she had the right idea. I disagree tbh, I think the song itself is why it flopped. It takes everything 'Gaga' at the time (nonsensical syllable hooks, huge synths and choruses, high concept) and turns it up to 20 but to a degree that it's just hostile to your average pop fan. It's a great fun bop for the underground gays but was a bad single choice IMO. Also the concept is not very appealing to your average pop fan either. "I'm in love with Judas"? "Born This Way" was very gay but it had a very clear message. "Judas" is a bit too cryptic. 1 4 1
NOW Posted October 24 Posted October 24 Alright I'm ready for this. She's never failed to give us something decent but it would be a big win if delivered with more hunger and passion in it. 3

And honestly it's paid off and adds some much needed humanity to the BTW campaign which was extra in every sense of the word. People look back on it fondly and it's a lovely tribute to Clarence too. 51 minutes ago, MatiRod said: I disagree tbh, I think the song itself is why it flopped.

If that was the case it wouldn't be resonating so hard 13 years later and constantly doing the rounds with young people online. It wasn't appealing to the sound of radio at the time for sure but the song/video attracted a lot of views on YouTube and wasn't just a fanbase thing. The hostility came from the perception of her & her image. Edited October 24 by HonourableVomit 2 2
