PI is one of my favourites from Joanne and it is criminally underrated. People say it shouldn't have been the lead single, which I agree with but it's still amazing!!

Especially the bridge, still gives me chills

I agree, but I feel like a lot of people disliked PI because it didn't have the Joanne vibe to it, you know? Like, they expected Joanne to sound like PI, but it didn't. I love it, but its my least favorite lead single from any of her albums besides C2C.

REALITY

I love Perfect Illusion, and I think that it's one of her most underrated songs (generally speaking), but I would tend to agree with people that said it wasn't necessarily the best lead single. I think they should have gone with A-YO. Not only was it much more radio-friendly, but it better represented the album as a whole. 

From the looks of the very first teasers of PI, and from the sound of PI itself, I was really believing that we would be getting a rock/disco/psychedelic pop record, but we didn't. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Joanne, but PI was just a weird choice for the first single. It's an amazing song, though.

Thrasher

One of her best. An awful choice for a lead single commercial-wise, but still her best lead single after Bad Romance. Period.

I'll admit when I first heard it in hated it and had never felt that way towards a Gaga song...especially after the hype coming off of an EDM album like ARTPOP...

It grew on me and it has a very 80's dream rock vibe and was also disappointed it had nothing to do with the overall country sound of Joanne. A tease...:neyde:

But being its personal connection to Gaga and Taylor...dont expect to hear it in Vegas or ever again probably...its also very hard for her to sing live every night

Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

I agree.  Totally agree. That song is a FRENZY. It's like getting caught up and spun into a wild tornado and the lyrics are awesome. 

She sings the HELL out of it.  Very underrated indeed.

Joanne woulda been a better album if perfect Illusion was representative of it's sound, PERIOd

Well she won’t be singing every single night - mostly on weekends.

I agree. I still love it to this day and I love the video too. 

I like how it's so chaotic and makes me want to jump around screaming "IT WASN'T LOVE!"

I hope it's not one of those tracks we barely hear of again because of the difficult vocals. I never got to see it live and I need to see it at least once. 

There needs to be a mic swinging emoji on here.

Honestly, I am so glad perfect illusion was the lead single. It showed that Gaga is not afraid to take risks. I personally think that the post-chorus hook "a-yo a-yo we smokin em all" is very cringey and am glad it wasn't a huge hit.

Yes, I want more perfect illusion vibes from Gaga!

PI is good. I loved it at the JWT!!! But there are some things about it that lack. The overall feeling i get from it, is that its a rushed rant with repetitive lyrics. It just feels unfinished to me. I'm not hating on it because its fun to bop to, but it feels amateur from an artist who we know can be so mature in her pop music.
