I'm pretty sure she said this in Howard Stern? Wasn’t IWBWU written after she broke her hip "I'd rather be poor and happy, than rich and alone" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnieDarko 10,186 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 IWBWU turned into a much better and I mean MUCH better song called Dope. Thankfully. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeka 12,372 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I Wanna be with U sounded like a track that was cast off from born this way maybe? Seriously. I wanna be with u is cute but it sounds like a leftover of the btw era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad she changed it with more complex lyrics Im sorry but Dope is so much more literal and cringy lol "toast one last puff and two last regrets" one example of many in a song self described by her as ultimately being about her addiction to marijuana. and i mean honestly the sentiment behind Dope was SO goddamn forced. like seriously. her talking about her substance abuse in that time period where like only a few short months before she was puffing away and wearing weed leaves on her nips. please. she could've saved the whole "drugs are bad guys mmkay" rhetoric and in such an ugly bombastic ballad at that. i wanna be with u was corny but it was at least genuine. dope was so obviously whipped up real fast before the albums release.

freebit 6,111 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I don't love Dope, but I'll take it over IWBWY. Dope was at least personal. The other one was just so dull and the type of song where I even can't recall how it sounded an hour after hearing it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
