djBuffoon 12,120 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I just don't think the GP knew what to do with it. The songwriting is great, the vocals are raw and powerful, the production is stellar. It's just a very angry and abrasive song, and I love it, but I can understand why people wouldn't be here for it.

Nirvana 2,712 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 We did not even get a proper live performance... The lack of promo + GPs bad taste is the fault here. It for sure did not sound like anything on radio at the moment. I wish it had smashed, but oh well... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works perfectly as a track on Joanne, but as a single - not so much (purely song-wise and radio-wise). MAYHEM / ARTPOP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I agree with you. I don't know what's about the song that's so addictive, but setting that aside, I think the song had potential to be so much better. I don't want to act like a critic cause I can't write a verse..., but I don't think Gaga and her team thought this song through and through when writing/producing it. The "It wasn't laaaahv" hook is one of the best Gaga has made, fight me, but at least 40% of the song is a hot mess, that you can enjoy if you've already heard the song, but not so much if you're first hearing it on the radio or somewhere.....

TheJackMonster 1,857 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 It just needed to be less repetitive, and with radio friendlier production. It had so much potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sepsami 18,884 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 It might not have been a big hit but that doesn't mean it'll be any less iconic when that opening sound (y'all know what I'm talking about) echos through the arena during the JWT THE GP WILL BE SHOOKT AND WILL BEG FOR FORGIVENESS FOR LETTING IT FLOP (kinda flop but nowhere near GUY level of flop) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
