hELXIG 43,094 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I've been thinking about this a lot lately and just thought I'd share my thoughts! As soon as I heard the studio version of MANiCURE it felt very oldga/Famega mixed with some rocker attitude. I think it's the most 'The Fame' sounding song off ARTPOP, and if someone were to somehow skip TFM and BTW eras and go to ARTPOP, I think it'd sound the most familiar. It's got that boppy, poppy, repetitive, catchy, feel to it that The Fame had, and with the same frivolous, youthful, party-girl attitude to it, but with a gruntier rock twist. And I was thinking about the songs meanings: Just Dance is about going out, getting wasted, and and dancing away your worries. MANiCURE is about getting dolled up with the girls, and going out to find a man to have some fun with to forget your worries (and be man-cured. ) I dunno they both have a kind of 'go out and be naughty and youthful and have some fun to get over what is bothering you' kind of vibes I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

Noah 26,972 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I kind of agree. Just Dance is kinda like MANiCURE's younger sister that always goes to house parties. ⟡ ⋆ ˚。⋆🦢⋆ ˚。⋆⟡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And MANiCURE is the older sister who used to do that, and still has her bad side, but now she just goes out with the girls to find a sexy rocker dude to play with I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

MANiCURE is incredibly catchy and boppy. I definitely think it's underrated, and that it would've gone over sooooo well on radio. A sexy, boppy, catchy, stuck-in-your-head pop-rock song about being slutty and having fun getting dressed up and catching a man? The word play of MANiCURE/man-cure. It's so radio friendly. So GP friendly. I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hELXIG 43,094 Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 Alternatively, MANiCURE could be the follow up song to Just Dance. Just Dance is about going to the club and being wasted and dancing away allll your problems, MANiCURE is about finding that sexy man at the club and taking him home and letting him put his hands all over your body parts I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

kabirartfling 9,063 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 MANiCURE gives me mixed feelings! At times i feel like its the boppest of the bops while other times it just burns my ears and makes me want to delete it immediately And i agree pop fans should boycott TFM and BTW and should directly listen to ARTPOP 👍 Give your love to me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you are right as well. ARTPOP is very pop, much more pop in some ways than TFM and BTW. Catchy, boppy, repetitive, easy to digest subject matter. The songs are all very different to one another, she's got like 10 genres flowing through that album, but the songs are all poppy. TFM and BTW are more conceptual and idealisitic and deep and philosophical and at times dark. Not easy for everyone to like. I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

I mourn the loss of the would-be hit MANiCURE on pop radio stations around the world. I'm glad some people share my opinion on this actually. I thought I was all alone and that the general consensus was that everyone hated MANiCURE. It would've slayed though. It would've actually sounded familiar to the GP, kinda throwback, but also fresh and new, and she'd be bringing some pop-rock which I think in 2013 or whenever the public would've really enjoyed. And it's just, damn, catchy. You know everyone would've been singing along to: "Heeeeeal meeeee." "MAN-CURE." "Can ya feel it can ya feel it can ya feel it" I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varo Yan 2,984 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 MANiCURE could have been as a led-single! DWUW - 2nd single 3th single - I cant choose Gypsy - 4th signle and end of era! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
melodichard 3,769 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 MANiCURE is definitely my favorite song from ARTPOP. I think it's even better live. I love when she belts out the "heeeeeeaaallll me" part in performances. I don't know how successful it would've been as a single, but I would've really enjoyed seeing a music video for it. Also, the trap-guitar ending Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWUW - 2nd single 3th single - I cant choose Gypsy - 4th signle and end of era! I think the songs that would've done the best on radio and also showed her diversity (like she wanted to with ARTPOP) would've been (in a rough order) Applause (standard pop) MANiCURE (pop-rock) Venus (alternative-pop) DWUW (R&B-pop) Gypsy (pop-ballad, great song, good lyrics, great era finisher) I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.
