Ladey Gagz 2,512 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 They weren't here for Gaga and there's nothing that would've made it better. No need to look for an explanation for everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain of fame1 226 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Only Gays actually think that. Gaga said that sort of as a joke, but the overall theme is about giving yourself over to another person and being willing to be submissive. It's not some Gay power bottom anthem and nobody in the GP would take it that way. the theme is GP unfriendly yet,Venus and Gypsy were the only relatable songs on the album left, and maybe MANiCURE or SD could work aslo ( Do what u want was the most relatable) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levine 18,415 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 It has been like that for centuries. Radio control everything and they decide if a song is gonna flop or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HORRORHOLIC 68 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 releasing g.u.y was pointless it would flop nevertheless If any of the singles were requested or in demand the radio station would have played them. It was because the GP didn't care that the radio stopped playing the songs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

degenerate 443 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 When she released the first few snippets the first thing I thought was that the chorus was very underwhelming and quite boring if I'm being honest. The verses and definitely the bridge had potential, but the chorus fell short. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJHolland 12,723 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 The theme isn't the issue. The song is about a female knowing she is in control even when she isn't on top, both physically, s-xually, and in life situations. No one cares what the theme is though, i can guarantee that. Because in this day and age, a song about a f-cking d*ck, Anaconda, can get praise and be on the top of the charts. People were just absolutely not here for Gaga. And it is sad, because even some of her fans abandoned her because she "wasn't succesful." It just wasn't a good time for her. The theme was the issue. If she'd hve promoted it more it, and internationally it could've been successful tbh The song wasn't written as a power bottom song nor was it's original intention, the gays just made it so; it's about submitting to a man and still feeling powerful with a hint of not needing to be a mainstream success to know ur worth as an artist an woman (although the latter only kinda became apparent after the video) Ergo: it's a song about reverse feminism That's just BS. Gaga said in an interview herself that it was mainly about power bottoming. She even used this exact words. The feminism spin was only put on it later.

It's not some Gay power bottom anthem and nobody in the GP would take it that way. Who said it was a gay power bottom theme? It's just power bottoming in general. Girl Under You. The song is about getting f*cked and anyone that says otherwise is looking way too into it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lego 44,165 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Lady GaGa talks "new-age feminist" track 'G.U.Y (Girl Under You)' Published Nov 1 2012, 15:14 GMT | By Lewis Corner Lady GaGa has spoken about a new song she has written. The singer revealed that she wrote 'G.U.Y (Girl Under You)' as a "new-age feminist" and explained that the track deals with embracing the female image. http://m.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a434990/lady-gaga-talks-new-age-feminist-track-guy-girl-under-you.html#~p1RJnF95S27uVe 2012 FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its theme is mediocre and not polarizing or substantial in any way. It's perfect for the radio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzGa 14,348 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Remember when fans were requesting radios play GUY and that one DJ tweeted back that he wasn't gonna play it despite demand because he "didn't smell a hit"? I didn't think pop DJs had that much control over what they play I thought they just played whatever was charting well/the station had a deal with the label. Also, was it really the quality of the song itself that made it flop on the radio? Or did the stations have a personal vendetta against her because of the anti-corporate themes of the video/FUK U POP MUSIC THIS IS AHTPOHP/the split with Troy/other non-public reasons. Everyone I know who heard GUY said they liked it. I don't think anyone who isn't a fan interpreted it as a power-bottom song, just a general "i wanna s-x u up" song. God created Adam and Eve, but Gọdga collabed with Brian🎺 and Steve🎷 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
