SJAG 1,597 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Out of context I really like it, It's not the best song of all time, but not the worst either. It's really catchy and you can dance to it, it's defenitely not a song you have to judge musically or lyrically-wise, it's simple and repetitive, but still a BOP. BUT, in the movie, I just can't take it seriously. Ally and Jack argue for the song shallow lyrics, and it's clear that the pop songs are meant to be like that (even though Heal Me and HBF are actually meaningful, I even made a thread on that). It's obvious that they didn't want to put out bad music just for the purpose of the movie, but it's clear they wanted them to sound simple and shallow. So, of course Diane is saddened by the fact the song is considered bad, but I think she's just joking and is not taking these critics seriously.

Yeah, from what I understood they were implying that Gaga said the song is shallow and IF she hadn't said that, the fans perception would've been different. But from what I can remember, she never called the song shallow to begin with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShayCristoforo 10,607 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 The fact that Gaga says Why Did You Do That? about 9 million times but the title still gets regarded as Why Do You Look So Good In Those Jeans. Unless Georgette already knows lol Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miel 15,009 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 It's a shallow and kind of stupid song, but it's still good and really fun. The bassline is absolutely killer. The discourse around this song and what pop means for people (in the movie's universe, and in real life) is super interesting. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
