Why wasn't Venus a PROPER single?!

I love Venus but like, it's just too much for the common-folk to handle. They'd rather listen to dire trash like Cheerleader and anything by Meghan Trainor.

Great song, but not #1 material. There's too much going on, and not in the appealing way of Bad Romance, especially given Gaga's downward spiral in popularity at the time.

DWUW should have been the properly serviced single #2 from the start, and she'd have had her second hit from ARTPOP, if not her first #1 since Born This Way.

You guys sorely underestimate what the average radio listener will listen to.

It would have been one of best singles.

Venus #32G.U.Y. #76

try agan henny :hunty:

You can't compare that way tho. ARTPOP wasn't released when they released Venus. Lots of thirsty fans purchased Venus, but not G.U.Y. since they already had the album. So that's no indication it would've succeeded as a single more than G.U.Y. :saladga:

Don't get me wrong, I like Venus but it definitely wasn't single material enough to save the messy ARTPOP era.

Lose control. Let go and fall. Do you get the satisfaction?

Because its trash and would have killed the ARTPOP era even faster.

But sometimes I wish it was a single and flopped just so DWUW could have gotten a better treatment

Excuse me but if Venus got the promo that DWUW did it would have already been in the top 5 on iTunes for months.
