What if Babylon isn't a promo single or a single at all but just a song in the album?

Well it should be only a song on the album.. It's not single material at all.. at least not the version that leaked

I mean, by the snippet we have, I agree, but the full HQ thing might be amazing, we don't know it

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

I just watched the SL a video and I already feel nostalgia for three weeks ago when I felt unadulterated excitement and enthusiasm for Chromatica, compared with the uncertainty of right now :messga:

I don't think that the version that leaked is the final version. It's been up on Twitter for like 2 days now, Justin said that it wasn't the version he heard on set, and Bobby liked his tweet.

I think it has potential to become a single, but it'd probably have to be the HL version. The instrumental itself is killer, and I don't know anyone who'd be like, "Ew, what song is this."

Besides, SL is literally perfect  single material, yet it's doing mediocre. I feel like the time of "single material" is over, at least, for someone like Gaga. I mean, I wouldn't have thought Shallow would've become as big as it was. I feel like with Gaga, people just want unique sounding stuff. Bad Romance, TEOG, Applause, Just Dance, Poker Face, Alejandro, etc. weren't successful because they were "single material", they were successful because they were just great songs that people latched on to. I feel like Babylon has that potential.

Oh absolutely. And I'm kinda sad lol, because I was so excited about this kind of music in 2018. And now EVERYONE's doing it

It was cute for a moment and then everybody started to get in the train :poot:

I honestly think that GP would hate it.. it sounds like a fan favorite but the beat and her style of singing is not something GP would listen to IMO.. Also I hate to disagree with you but Shallow is probably one of her safest hits out there.. :/ I hope I'm wrong about Babylon tho

It being amazing doesn't qualify it as a single. Remember, singles are the most radio friendly and catchy tracks:ohwell:

imo, a good promo single is supposed to be less catchy and experimental so it wouldn't overshadow the second single

Like I said though, I don't think that the version that leaked is the final version. A lot of changes could've been made. It's been up on Twitter for 2 days now; if it was the final version, or at the very least, very close to what the final product sounds like, I feel like they would've taken it down by now.

That said, I mean, it's very difficult to talk about a song that we've only heard 30 seconds of from a short, LQ snippet. I think that it has potential,  but it's certainly not a homerun or anything like that. Again, I think that the HL instrumental itself is amazing, and I feel like that could get a lot of people interested.

As for Shallow, I mean, I can understand why you'd think it was a safe single choice, but I certainly didn't think so. I thought that because of it's unconventional structure, it wouldn't do good on radio, but look how wrong I was :sweat:

But ask SL how it's doing :ohwell:

Yes, I think that it's obviously safest to go with the most radio-friendly stuff, but SL is literally as radio-friendly as it gets, but it's not doing amazing. 

I feel like people have made an exception for Gaga. They almost sort of expect her to make really weird and unconventional sounding music.

P.S. I'm not a Little Chartster by the way. I feel like the way I'm conveying my argument makes me seem that way :sweat: In all, I really don't care about the charts, but for the sake of the point I'm conveying, I have to bring it up.

I was surprised she could fit ARTPOP into a song and make it make sense so it’ll be interesting to see what she comes up with for Chromatica if she does:enigma:
