I wonder if anyone has put the instrumental sound of Brooklyn Nights and apply it to Million Reasons as the background sound.

Love this song! And I always wished it was on ARTPOP!

It is my most played song ever :gaycat: I actually don't know how that happened, but back when it was released I was really addicted to it. I absolutely love it. It really is one of the most emotional songs she has ever done. I love that ending.

 

But I can't see it in ARTPOP. ARTPOP has a very well structured tracklist, it tells a story, and Brooklyn Nights, wouldn't fit in. If there had been any bonus tracks, this could be the one.

I still don't get the lyrics :neyde:

It's her singing to her ex boyfriend about how she's still in love, and they had some really amazing times dating in Brooklyn, but it will never work out between them. "it's not that I don't want to love you, it't just that I'm really over it, y'know?" 

And then at the end she entertains the idea of them getting back together, and trying just one more time to make it work  "It's not that I don't wanna love you, because I really tried, and I just want to hang with the old-you, just for one Brooklyn Night, I do. Have a drink with your former-self, we both won't act like someone else, maybe then we'd both tell the truth, for just one Brooklyn Night, I do. 

And there's little personal anecdotes in there too, like him sneaking the keys to their old apartment into her purse and meting him there to try again, and them hanging out at her place watching Rocky 4 while her dad hangs a chandelier, catching the F train by the bus stop (which btw I stumbled acorss down the road from her old apartment on Stanton Street :air:  just around the corner from her old apartment, the F train stop is right next to the bus stop)

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.
