I hope not. It's not even a good song.

If LG really stated that the song hadn’t anything to do with sex, I’m shocked. Like so many of her concepts, the final version was whitewashed and told a totally different message than intended.

Her earl the solo performances of it made it clear that much of ARTPOP was about her being used: for profit, as a canvas, for love, for sex, for fun... DWUW second verse was about her being “yours” when onstage and that she’ll  carry on even if she doesn’t want to. Almost a disassociative meaning. 

The intended messages of this and Applause were totally massacred, but making her replace that second verse and have it sung by RK was literally personification of her original song. No less repugnant.

i'll never forgive interscope for pushing him to this song in order to make it controversial and more 'interesting' once they thought people were losing interest in gaga. it was always clear that she didn't want him on the track, there is absolutely no sense in putting someone who's accused of rape for the past 10 years in a song called "do what you want (with my body)".

i doubt it was her idea, even for the video. when performing/promoting it she always seemed more like 'playing the game' than actually enjoying it. she always knew what she was in, and saying once again, i doubt putting him on the track was her idea and i can see her clearly trying to avoid that from happening - and losing it since Applause wasn't good enough on the charts.

Gaga wanted him on the track and I think she knew exactly what she was doing to make a controversial pop record. R. Kelly wasn’t convicted of his charges at the time so her team probably thought it was a smart “pop” move. I actually think Tara influenced Gaga with R. Kelly as she was a super fan of his. Gaga seemed genuinely excited for the record even hyping the performance on Twitter etc. Gaga’s took ownership in her open memo and said she was young and in a dark place in her life. She also mentions that her intention was to make a provocative record to express her trauma. She mentions nothing about the record label.
