Living for the "Artistic" elitist scum that always rear their holier than thou heads when they don't think something is deep enough:lana:

Life ain't Hollywood for any one of us.

I've got it on repeat.

 

Unless you're listening to The Age of Adz type of records sonically only, then no one here really has any room to call anything "generic or basic" derogatorily. No one here listens to genuinely experimental music as the majority of their repertoire <3

Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~

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

That was my thinking. Why is everyone up in here acting like they're some hipster indie fan :smh:

I'm an indie/alternative fan, and there are definitely other GGD members who listen to a substantial amount of indie/alt music. :lolly:

But yeah, a lot of GGD members mainly listen to pop music, a genre that is considered generic and basic (INCLUDING Lady Gaga's music) by many non-pop fans. I find it funny when Gaga stans call other people "basic" when someone who listens to more artistic/experimental/extreme genres might say "but Lady Gaga's basic too." It's all about perspective.

Anyways, I hope the previous paragraph doesn't derail the thread. After all, this is about Ellie's new song and our reactions to it. <3

I'm actually on Hype Machine right now listening to indie music :hor:

But yeah... This song is mainstream, but I would not call it generic. I think some people need to think more before they talk. You summarized my thoughts perfectly :yes:

I hope that's true. But either way a Thursday release date doesn't make sense at all lol, it's probably the worst day of the week to release, actually. Oh well.

Well it doesn't spit her sales as badly as a Tues or Wed release, she has days 2-8 together. All I can think of is she wanted 2 days of promo before the weekend.

Still makes no sense. And she's failed to get close to #1 anyway so she may as well have had that first day surge with a Friday release to get the best peak possible. I'm sure it will do fine in the long run, but the reception has been lukewarm thus far.

In the UK maybe, but in the US it peaked at #2, which is really good. Even LMLYD didn't get past #5 in its debut week. Little monsters here are bashing it, but I took a look on atrl and people there seem to be loving it.
