Second, these people here are mostly second language speakers, so maybe give them a break on tiny grammar mistakes?????? I hate it when someone criticizes someones second or third language abilities if they don't speak more than one. Language is my second language and jt was meant as a semi-joke (omg I invented a word) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewYorkCity 10,520 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 The only thing that Perfect ILLUSION lacks is some breathing. I mean, it goes all so so fast. The instrumental is great, they should have left like 5 instrumental seconds on the bridge. Other than that the song is amazing and it wasn’t well promoted. That’s it.

Iluvartpop 363 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Seems like the GP was interested in tropical house back then and PI was very different from that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginald 13,839 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I think it could have grown into a hit over time and also shaken up the staleness of pop radio, if it was what the rest of Joanne sounded like. Instead, after the edgy hard hitting of PI, we got the soft, subtle MR. It just didn't make sense lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr S 8,444 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Combination of things. Wasn't trendy, had terrible visuals, weird sounding pronunciation in the chorus, too loud, vocal may be too strong too, abandoned early, etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Laurent 4,862 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Define 'flop'. It's in my top 5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcanum 5,076 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 This should have been the original version. Tbh I expected this vibe from LG5. So when the American style appeared in Joanne it tore me apart. It took me some months to eventually love it. GP won't give it a second chance tho. I Wantth your Love...I Wantth your Love.

Arturo 40,746 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 The song was very unlikable. I see the post 2016 pop scene as one where your song isnt going to be massively successful if its not going to be bumped in late teen and early 20 year old males cars or at college parties. I personally wasnt the biggest fan of PI but when I tried to make people listen to it it was clear that people thought the song was bad. So no I can’t say the song was objectively bad (can we say that about any song really?) but most people thought it was bad. If they had the chance to listen to it. That brings up another point, a lot of people dont know the song exists. Some of you guys dont realize how close the ENTIRE Joanne era almost went under the radar. Thank god the SuperBowl came and lifter Million Reasons up. The SB is the reason the Joanne era/MR is remmebered. Stans will try to make that sound like a bad thing but its not. Its a great thing. There’s no way a praised halftime show can be turned around negatively just because it made a song a hit. Anyways back to PI. TLDR; it was “bad”. Low GP interest in her. Not many knew it was even released. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
