  1. 1. Was the guitar wasted in Bad Kids?

I voted yes and here's why...

So I was just listening to Bad Kids the other day (definitely not one of my favourite Gaga songs) and I listened to the instrumental this morning:

In my opinion, that instrumental absolutely slays LIVES :giveup:

The best bit about it is that flawless guitar. The guitar is so amazing, but I feel it was wasted in this song as it isn't really given a chance to 'shine', as it hides behind her vocals. To me, Bad Kids sounds like quite a rushed 'filler' song, and I feel that the epic guitar could have made any other song really amazing.

Do any of you guys agree?

Another note: To me, the guitar is so raw and rock, but the vocals are so flowery and saccharine that I just don't think it works on this song.

I know that's an unpopular opinion, but I actually love Bad Kids and think it could have been a brilliant single.

The song is perf. The only thing I don't like about the song is the intro. That quote is really annoying.

hop on that **** like a maniac

Eh. The song is really good and underappreciated but definitely wasn't singleworthy.

I voted no before reading the post and now I wish I put yes. I feel the verses were well done, but the chorus was too mushy, I don't know. I wish it was a much harder song like HML, and that it took advantage of the guitar.

I think the same. The intro is so eargasmic, and the vocals sound cool at the beginning the the chorus ruins the flow of a bad b*tch for me. I wish she kept the guitar sound for the whole song.

EDIT: I think someone made me a more rough version with the guitar throughout the song that sounded INCREDIBLE!

But it works live. Bloody Mary, G.U.Y., and Venus live with those ****ing guitars just take my life. Absolute perfection

I love BK but wish the chorus was different, it doesn't sound as badass as the verses

Right, those are some of her best verses ever.

I never knew "Bad Kids" was so hated until I joined this site.
