ApplauseftAdele 4,730 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I had an interesting thought - if one of Gaga's other songs was the lead, how would the era be? You can pick any song, even songs that are likely to not have been singles (Teeth, Dope). Marry The Night - If "Born this Way" was a separate era or the concept didnt exist, I think MTN as a lead would slay everything Dance In The Dark - TBH i think it would be the same impact as Bad Romance if given a similar video, although Bad Romance might be a bit more popular. Plus, the lyrics are memorable, and "ra ra ah ah ah" actually gave the song a lot more buzz since it was easy to meme Sexxx Dreams / Fashion - The era would be more popular from the GP, Sexxx Dreams era would be more racy and Fashion would be more art-esque. Applause maybe the last single? Venus - as much as you guys like this song it would prob flop as a lead... G.U.Y - Honestly GUY as a lead doesnt sound so bad. It has a similar sound to applause and the video is really much better (not as creepy, as much as i love Applause MV) and I think would have been better recieved by the GP.

Also the songs dont have to be single worthy, you can what you think bloody mary lead would look like lmao Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think any song could´ve topped Applause´s debut. I do however agree that Sexxx Dreams could have been the club banger. but sadly radios would have censored it...

Boyboi12 2,125 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Good things you guys don't work for her marketing team. Applause and do what you want were the only radio friendly marketable songs on that album. Applause was an excellent lead single choice, I wouldn't change it.

Gaga actually picked out the three songs I would´ve picked up. G.U.Y. was a mess but it had a lot of potential. and if it weren´t for the word "sex" then Sexxx dreams as fourth single, and then Gypsy as the last one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a filler song, and I feel the same way about sex dreams. Gypsy would have had to be remastered, before even being considered radio friendly.

G.U.Y. is 100% not a filler, sexxx dreams is tho. and these were the only "radio friendly" songs of ARTPOP. the rest (except MANiCURE) had elements that would have been considered "too artsy" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Ga Ga 5,671 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I honestly don't see the problem of having sexxx dream as a lead, so what if it has sex in its title, pink had a song with f*ck in its title, and it went onto number 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That song flopped hard. Now that I think about it, MANiCURE could have crossed over well. I just feel she should have done more with the r kelly song. ARTPOP as a whole, was really just not her best work. However, I still love a comobation of the songs for certain reasons. With this next album she need cheesy hooks and uptempo beats, that will get people of all ages singing her songs again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
