Spoilers: Reveal hidden contents The scene at the end where she performs this was so crazy. It was beautiful. I think if the public stopped listening to basic old music with the most basic lyrics and melodies, then maybe it could have a lot of impact, maybe the same or more than Whitney's "I Will Always Love You.". If the general public actually care about real music, and meaningful songs and lyrics, then yes this could be Gaga's go to song. Let's just hope that people recognise the beauty of the song. Ughhh sorry but this is infuriating... just because it's a slow piano ballad from a sad scene, why does that make it more "real music" or more "meaningful"? This song is fine, it suits the scene very well. I'm sure some people will find it meaningful. But that doesn't mean that other songs, just because they are more upbeat, or poppy or electronic, are less "real". To call something "real music" doesn't even make any sense to begin with... real as opposed to what, fake music? But pop songs make people feel good, it gives them energy and helps them have fun. Surely that means more than just a sad piano song? (Especially one about heartbreak - really the majority of people probably haven't experienced an intense heartbreak and can't relate). Spoiler And anyway, the lyrics to this particular song are hardly groundbreaking. They're neither smart metaphors or startlingly honest... just kind of cliché ballad lyrics. I don't find them to be "above" pop lyrics at all tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect and understand your opinion, but I do disagree. Well fair enough, but I think it would benefit you to appreciate the quality in all different sorts of music I also used to think that chart music was just thoughtless trash, but if you listen you'll find that most of it actually has really detailed and well done production, and often there are more interesting meanings behind the lyrics than you assume at first.

I guess it has something to do with Bradley's voice out of the blue singing the song. Put a spoiler alert Spoiler In the final scene, there is an intense crescendo as Gaga is singing the final chorus, and then an immediate cutaway to a scene where Jackson performed the song for her for the first time on the piano. It's a really big tonal surprise that got the whole theater to gasp. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
