Rifek 49,131 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 This is how it should look like: 1. A-YO Promo single: Perfect Illusion 2. Million Reasons 3. John Wayne Promo single: Joanne (4.

mamo 15,364 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I f*cking love perfect illusion but it definitely wasn't lead single material. The lead single should have been Joanne tbh as it's the most important part of the record and does a great job at summarizing the era. Other lead single choices should have been either diamond heart or million reasons. you can serve it to me ancient city style... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnWayne92 2,082 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 If the album was more Perfect Illusion and Diamond Heart, absolutely. I think A-Yo should have been the lead single Million Reasons as 2nd single John Wanye as 3rd Then Perfect Illusion could have had a better chance. John Wayne is similar in its loudness, which would have had the GP more accustomed to it, IMO Then ended with the cute Joanne to snatch up the Grammys Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor released Me! And it's a great lead single, even if it doesn't completely represent the album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ear condom 964 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 My perspective : Only a minority of people want to see Lady Gaga sing more country/dance rock stuff I think PI is a great song; but of course anything that doesn't sound like the classic crowd-pleasing 2008 sexy-dance-pop Lady Gaga will eventually flop (Joanne , Cheek to cheek, even ARTPOP to some degree) So, to me, PI being a lead single or not doesn't matter very much , sadly ...... Maybe Ayo would have been the best alternative commercially speaking? because it's catchy, and a catchy country Lady Gaga is probably more acceptable for the mass than a maudlin country Lady Gaga (Joanne / Million reasons).

27monster27 9,403 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Although it isn't very radio friendly, I like it because it is very high energy, which I find to be good for a Lady Gaga lead single. he/him/his Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaperRings 28 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 September 2016 was interesting. Back then, I followed a ton of "insider" accounts that gave pretty solid information. By all accounts, I thought we were getting a disco album. So when P.I. was released, I was too shook to form an actual opinion. The lyrics hit a little to close to home; I wasn't in a great place then. I love it now, but I think Diamond Heart would have been such a cool choice to start the era.
