Prometheus 1,494 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Lady Gaga, 'Dope' Lady Gaga's powerful piano ballad references giving up one addiction (d--gs and/or alcohol) for another (love). We all want so desperately to connect, and it's painful to extricate ourselves from an addiction situation, so much so that it might kill us. Yes, we can love someone so much they infect our blood. Letting go is like suffering through withdrawal. But the true sadness in this song comes not in how we literally or figuratively interpret her words, but from the struggle in Ma Monster's voice as her piano gently weeps. Saddest Lyrics: "My heart would break without you / Might not awake without you / Been hurting low from living high for so long." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iSd_wTuA3U Read More: 20 Saddest Songs | http://popcrush.com/sad-songs/?trackback=tsmclip Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FATCAT 55,828 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 This...imho...why was such a downer depressing song on a "club album that could be played from start to finish"??? To be completely honest, ARTPOP doesn't feel like the Gaga I fell in love with. Dope is the Gaga I feel in love with. I think the most easy answer, is that ARTPOP wasn't pure, it was pushed by her label to be a success, and she didn't want her artistry to die in their decisions, so she took control of the situation. ARTPOP was made for radio, the single could be hits, the promo is small, but the potential is huge. People think it's because people are "done" with her, or that somehow she's "lost her carear", but it just seems like she's lost her interest in pleaseing her label, or the GP. Music not the Bling isn't ARTPOP the album, its the song. I think at this point I'm just rambleing @ this point, but when it comes down to the wire, ARTPOP isn't a success because she doesn't want it to be. I don't know, maybe I'm crazy.. Purr more, hiss less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
