When you're gone I'll still be the Mary that everyone hates, the prostitute, the dirty... this is what she meant.. This sounds legit... Thanks for clarifying.

I wouldn't say masterpiece. hm I guess that's totally subjective. I love the melody, I love the production as well. It's one of her best ones imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GagasFilthyPop 336 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Bloody Mary was one of the most unique songs on Born This Way and in modern pop music. It deserved to become a single and have a video for it, especially around Halloween. "We could be caught, we're both convicted criminals of thought."

Buddy 5,686 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Personally I've always thought it was about Luc when he told her she would die alone a rich and miserable woman, but that she would always still love him and be tormented by his memory. "I'll tell them my religion's you," a reference to Teeth the French in it means "I'm scared to die alone" I also thought the dumb dumb dadas were a reference to Dada, the guy she dated during this whole thing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting too that "bloody" as a curse word originally referred to the blood of Christ. It's like "zounds" in Shakespearean English, which is short for "christ's wounds". building a daydream Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LebaneseDude 6,146 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I figured out some of these on my own before but the way you phrased them is far better than I could have. Well put. Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wait on mountain tops in Paris coldJe ne veux pas mourir tout seule" I've always considered to be one of the most beautiful stanzas, lyrically and musically, I've heard in my life. It's just perfect. It's amazing how her lyrics can keep you thinking for years, interpreting them in new ways and discovering new meanings with every listen. You're so right; Bloody Mary is an absolute masterpiece. 🤖⚡️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
