DeMarco 232 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Not even a little bit. I still get excited every time I hear it. It's always around me, all this noise, but not really as loud as the voice saying "Let it happen, let it happen." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sableye 574 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 There are going to be lots of people that will either argue or agree with this point. Although this is the 129311th thread about PI being less than impressive on whatever platform you follow (sales, quality of music, public reception), this is the thread that I feel I can relate to the most when it comes to how I feel about this single. From what I take away from Gaga's latest direction, I think that it is (maybe even unindented) another way for her to rebel against what people expect from her. By the end of the Fame, the GP was giving her much criticism for being weird, so she released the Fame Monster and continued with the same aesthetic of weirdness. She kept being herself because it was what she was criticized for. By the end of the Fame Monster, she had been criticized for her involvement in the gay community (for either taking advantage of, or identifying with them) and she had been criticized for her very powerful and unconventionally strange fan base. What does she do? She puts out Born This Way; an album dedicated to the gays and her fanbase. By the end of BTW she was criticized for her videos being tough to follow, and reflecting her personal life too much. In return, ARTPOP reflected her interests in art very dedicatedly. She included many songs about what was going on in her life. MJH & Dope for her weed phase, Swine for that ordeal with Perez, Donatella of all things lmao, Gypsy for her relationship. She included many more visuals in the era that reflected her interests in art. Throughout ARTPOP people had criticized her for having a failing career and for no longer having albums that can sell and writing music that wasn't catchy. It seems like her approach now it to show she doesn't actually care about album sales, so she's not promoting anything much, and she isn't writing public friendly music. Keep in mind, there's always going to be 2 types of stans. Those who absolutely STAN for everything she does and those that look at her work objectively and judge based on whatever value they see in it. Seeing as how this is a Gaga site, there are going to be a lot of stans who will worship anything she puts out regardless of quality. I, myself, try to stay objective and was really disappointed with PI (just like I was with Hair, much of the second half of ARTPOP, and a few other choices). It's tough, but Gaga might never go back to the pop we once knew. And that's okay. It's just that she's outgrown her old music, and if that's what you want from her, then you might have outgrown her too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HANZ 4,380 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 even tho I listen to it a lot lately I was still expecting something alot better and cathier, the video sucks tho and she looks like a mess in it, so far Joanne has been the most boring era of her career hopefully the 2nd single will be something better just my opinion My Favs = Lady Gaga, Janet Jackson, Ricky Martin, AKB48 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaga Medicine 265 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Like, it's okay that some fans don't like the song, but what I don't understand is these people losing hope on the album since we haven't heard it yet. I feel like there will be better songs and better first single choices too tbh. I believe they chose PI as the lead because it is probably the song on Joanne that is more close too what she has done before. I love PI since the first listen, but I refuse to believe it is the best song on Joanne. What bothers me a little is that if Gaga doesn't want to promote the hell out of this album, then she should have released the best song on Joanne as the lead, even if it is a ballad a la TIHTY.

Akiki 3,900 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I dont think the song is all over the place, but I think you are mostly right. Until 1:50 de Build Up is massive! But then we get the key change. While it's fresh, the key change kills the momentum and the songs restarts (for me at least), trying to build up again but in a boring repetitive way. When I hear PI I feel the rush and adrenaline, but after the 1:50 and the key change I feel "off" and it seems that someone is beating a dead horse. If I had to rate it, the first 1:50 is A+ The rest is F... PI was close to be her best song and a great hit if they fixed it. The key change was bold, but makes her lose the momentum. The fact that the bridge is deep under doesn't help either. It's a good bridge, but doesn't stand out and shine properly cause Gaga is always shouting "It wasn't loooaahhh-veeee". This one is a miss. I enjoy the song and I always come back just for that amazing start... after that I skip the song. But has I said... PI would have been her best lead single by far if it wasn'te for the messy second part. I stilll have good hopes about the album and I'm loving Gags being so chill and dedicated to her music. The fame thing was cool for 3 Eras but ARTPOP was nothing that I hoped. It felt just wrong. I loved the Itunes concert, but the production on the album was bland and was quite different from what it seemed from the Itunes concert. To finish, I am disapointed that kevin had this Idea. I love tame impala and he is crazy good... I had high hopes and It was a dream to see him work with Gaga, but... PI wasn't his best idea. PS: That Uptown Funk beat at the end of PI seems out of place... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
