boobtank 9,090 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Lady Gaga's 'The Cure': EW review We gave it a: B+ Go ahead and hang up your pink cowboy hats — gone are the twangy guitars and rock-and-roll signifiers of Joanne. Instead, Gaga teams up with DJ White Shadow and Nick Monson, who worked extensively on her 2013 album ARTPOP, and a few other co-writers for a breezy, finger-snapping summer jam. Yet to call “The Cure” a return to disco stick-riding form isn’t quite right. The track marks yet another sonic detour for the singer in that “The Cure” is — bummer alert! — sort of generic. From the vaguely dancehall-inflected EDM beat to the chirpy synth earworm that could very well be more of the pitched-up vocal samples all over the radio, “The Cure” resembles a lot of other pop songs at the moment. And whether you loved or hated ARTPOP, revered or rebuked Joanne, the one thing every Gaga fan can probably agree on is that her songs have always been singular. That her latest could belong to any number of B-list pop singers is more shocking than that video of her trying to swallow an octopus... ...Perhaps that’d be more disappointing if “The Cure” wasn’t so, well, potent. Even when she’s writing a love song as straightforward and on-trend as this one, she still knows how to write a good hook, and “The Cure” ranks among the catchiest, most immediate, and thankfully least self-serious songs she’s put out in recent years. It’s simply fun. Link: http://ew.com/music/2017/04/17/lady-gaga-the-cure-review/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SychosSoChic 9,995 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I agree with this review, nice to finally resonate with something Life ain't Hollywood for any one of us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordEnigma 11,313 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Exactly my feelings toward the songs. However, I'm sure the rest of the EP (I'm just assuming this is what is going to happen) will be a bit more in your face/CrazyGa. This song has really grown on me and I can see the GP bopping to it.

Dominic 11,922 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Fair and honest review. I think this is how a lot of us feel. Not bad at all but it doesn't have that oomph like other Gaga songs. Definitely a light-hearted bop but a bop even so. The hardest thing in this world is to live in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
