Do What U Want is highly under-rated

You can't have my heart and you won't use my mind

But do what you want with my body

You can't stop my voice cos you don't own my life

 

I just love it. She's saying her mind - her soul - is her own and cannot be touched. Sicko materialist humans can use and abuse her body in this 3-dimensional world, but in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter, because her soul is her home. She sees beyond this life. So do what you want cos I can handle it for a little while.

It applies to all of us.

But people are stupid enough to interpret it correctly, and they assume it's about rape. :smh:

the 'do what you want, what you want with my body, do what you want, what you want with my body" is the best thing Gaga and White Shadow have ever made in years

tht's so Michael Jackson and it sounds so good

Is it really underrated or is it the concept that underperforming = people dislike it? People LOVE that song, to the point I think it is actually overrated.

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

Yes I always think this! It's so slick, such good dynamics. He would have loved it. So much potential for a duet :')

I don't think it's under-rated, lots of people and fans consider it one of her best songs ever.

 

The only ones who under-rated it were Gaga and her team, by making it a promo single at first.

Nope, it's highly OVER RATED. Some of the lyrics are good but the over all sound of it is very repetitive of what Gaga did before with R&B inspired tracks. And don't even get me started on how over rated the video is for it. That was just really bad and reflected how Gaga has no time to come up with theme and plot for the video. It was thrown together in about week, when the label decided to make it the next single instead of VENUS. Gaga had a whole idea planned for VENUS but she had to scrap it and come up with something in a few days for the DWUW video. Gaga likes to plan and perfect her videos and performances for weeks, months even, but with DWUW she was forced to come up with an idea right away, that's why I believe she called the video unlike anything she's done before.

OMG, can you believe what would have happened if the King of Pop was still alive and well?  I think he may have featured on this song instead of R. Kelly and that song would have snatched everybody's weave that year.   :yes:

I don't care what you think about unless it is about me.

TRU. MJ was so good at coming for the media for spreading vicious lies about him. The message of "Do What U Want" would've been right up his alley. RIP. 

I'm not a woman. I'm not a man. I am something that you'll never understand.

Most people really seem to enjoy the song. I've heard it (along with Gypsy) in malls and on the radio (not like Gypsy). I think most people assume it was the smash single that got away because of the no MV deal. Of course, a lot of people here seemed to think the same of G.U.Y. until it flopped as a single, so I'm curious if the same sentiment would have stood if D.W.U.W had had a released video, and still underperformed. Personally I think Do What You Want is a much better song than G.U.Y. (though I like G.U.Y.), but the R. Kelly factor really skeeves me out.

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax."

DWUW was already at top 15 hit with no vid , with a vid it would have pushed for top 10 keep in mind the video seemed like the perfect controversy event. So I don't think there was room for it to underperform more/ or perform less better if a video was given.
