PI is our salvation

[Gagadonna 10,801]

I am so so so confused. I expected to be screaming when I would hear the song for the first time, but I remained silent and still. I am between perplexe and blown away. 

I am surprised by the song, I like it but my expectations are not met. I did not expect another Poker Face or Bad Romance, on the opposite I expected a rock-ish song, but not something like this. I wanted something more sophisticated, more dancing and less short. 

What I like: the vocals are so powerful and genuine, and the instrumental is simply epic. I appreciate the fact that it's a grower. Most of the time I immediately fall in love with her songs, but with Perfect Illusion, it's different. I have to get used to it to appreciate it, and it's a new experience to me as a monster. I also find it funny how people either absolutely love it or loathe it, I do not see that many mixed-feelings reviews on the net. I also smile at the connection some fans made between "I want your love" (Bad Romance), "I wonder if this could be love" (Venus) and "It wasn't love" from the new single.

What I don't like: the end of the song is messy, I don't like its construction. The part when she whispers reminds me of Swine (not another word from you, but deep down you're just a shrew) and I hate that song. It is also way too short, I don't even have time to make my own opinion that the song is over. Moreover, the song was called a "dance anthem" by many before the release, but personally, I cannot dance to it, and it's a pity because I just love dancing and bitching when my fav songs are played.

End word: I am disappointed by the song, because of my high expectations, but I still like it. I am glad Gaga is doing what she loves and for that I wish her all the best with the single. I hope it will be doing well on the charts because she deserves it! However, I wish the other singles won't have the same kind of structure - I know they won't, all her singles are different from each other (apart from Poker Face / Bad Romance / Judas ).
