NewYorkCity 10,536 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 100% agree. I hate when people praise everything she does even if it's failure at times. She is the best pop artist out there and she can create perfection, but she didn't do that with G.U.Y. for sure. Emmm... I hate when people think their opinions are the only valid ones.

Memo 176 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 lack of promo and radio support I suppose Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAmTheX 0 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 It's catchy but it sounds somehow risky for radios (above all in that bridge) and kinda dated. I think it could have been if A) there was enough promo and a proper release (why the **** records tend to release videos before the single nowadays?) B) It was Gaga's moment (aka TF/TFM era) and whatever she released was a hit with no effort, which is obviously not happening at the moment. It's definitely not the kind of song like Applause/DWUW that can reach good positions with no problem (take into account Applause came after the messy BTW era and had to fight against Roar and DWUW had no video and is a featuring with R Kelly), but it could really be successful if Gaga's team wanted to fight for it.

Miel 15,009 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Odd, my local stations spun it quite a bit until it died out of nowhere. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji 20,113 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Lack of promotion and it sounded a little dated at release. It needed more dance or pop influences, it was stuck a little too much in between. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylangaga 216 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I'm sorry, but this song is so AMAZING not to be a hit!! AMAZING LYRICS, THE ENERGY IN GAGA'S VOICE AHHHHHH this remains one of my favorites from her! its just so catchy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klou 2,414 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Because radio wouldn't play it and Gaga didn't promote it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HORRORHOLIC 104 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I knew it wasn't gonna be a hit. It's just not the kind of song Gaga needed to have a hit. Plus the video as expensive as it was is probably her worst video. It was just a big mess ,the G.U.Y. part of it anyway. It's not lack of radio play or anything like that either. If the song would have caught on it would have been played more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANiDONTCURE 30 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Not enough promotion, also it isn't a family friendly song. G.U.Y came on once and my mom changed it because it was "too s-xual" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefamefatale 264 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 It's a messy song, not radio friendly. But the mv is the best one of Gaga so far. Messy......? k don't be a drag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batwings 12,885 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I don't know. I must be one of the few people who have never liked G.U.Y. that much. But the video is awesome. I agree. I'm glad we got the video, but the song is very overrated by the fanbase (Little Bottoms ) and I just don't think it was a good single choice.
