MGC 226 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Gypsy is far from being a bad song, in my opinion. Still, it's quite "basic" compared to the rest of ARTPOP, and it's production doesn't sound much like gaga.. It's quite a generic song, beautifully revived when sung live. At the beginning, I used to like it but after the artrave I never listened to it again, I really can't connect to it. Maybe it could have done nice as a single, but picking DWUW as a second single instead of it was a good choice, before the big meltdown happened Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WORLDofGAGA 2,274 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I love gypsy! Emotional and fun to listen too! Love her voice on it too @W0RLDofGAGA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djBuffoon 12,119 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I think it's definitely one of the best songs she's ever written, it's gorgeous, the words and melody flows effortlessly. And the outro is just fan-fücking-tactic. But it's far from being a typical Gaga track, which is why I think some fans are resistant to it. It's upbeat, very happy, unabashedly romantic. People have called it cheesy, but I think that's incorrect, and I would venture to guess that many of those who feel that way can't relate (yet) to the kind of relationship that the song is about. For me, "cheesy" means over-the-top and lacking authenticity, and I think the song is nothing if not sincere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson123 38,323 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 It's a cute song and it has a beautiful meaning that Gaga has explained it, but it's just ANOTHER song on the album to me. It's been months since I've listened to it and it's just that it has this feeling that they said "Let's write another The Edge of Glory/Hair emotional song just to close the album", then they did and then Applause happened, but they kept both songs there. It's a good song, but it's a very predictable cheesy song. It feels like it was on the album just to have a safe song to release as a single. I don't want to be mean but I sure think Gaga had plans to release Act II and they decided to keep Fashion!, Donatella, MANiCURE, Gypsy and probably one or another song just to have enough material for an album and they kept some really great tracks for the second part, which never happened.

GagaSkeletonWay 2,080 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 There is something about it that makes me not to like it. I mean, it's not that I hate it but I don't love it neither. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slayer 9,227 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 I wonder if the fans' reception to it would have been different if it had been released as a single. I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectrikUniCorn 99 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 It's weird because literally all my friends love Gypsy (My friends are not fans nor haters). One of my friends still listen to the song once a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
