maybe I have a limited view on what "disco" is but I don't really hear disco in SL, at least not to the extent of Don't Start Now

anyways, another day another monumental slay

Maybe it's just me but I find the synth in SL very inspired to some we can find in Italo-disco:stalkga: bops like this one :

The fast beat similar to DWUW. In that video it's mid-tempo (I believe) while in SL it's an upbeat.

I was just wondering...what happened to that? It made zero buzz towards non-fans. It's one of my favorite Gaga covers ever .

It has zero promo. But honestly it would fit in today's radio, maybe even more than Stupid Love

TBH I dont think SL is disco (and def not to the extent that Say So is) 

Say So is no more "disco" than SL. They're both sugary pop with disco as an undercurrent for why they exist. Duas track is a little more straightforward in its influence. But out of the 3 I think you hear it in say so the least actually. Because Gaga's vocal on stupid love is very disco influenced honestly. A lot of disco women had strong vocals, they really sang.

Is that really a good thing? It's 2020, not 1975.

Pop music always borrows from the past. TFM borrows from 90’s europop, BTW from 80’s pop-rock

It's a reference to gaga working with chic/tom ford on the I want your love cover. She had said something about "funking the punk" referring to herself as the punk and presumably Nile rogers funking her out with his funky production/style/whatever. A lot of fans latched onto that statement and as usual would presume it was a song or album title or the vibe of what at that time people thought LG5 would be.

So you can reel back whatever pretentious little rant you wanted to go off on about Gaga's punkocity or lack thereof in your mind lol

Also, everyone needs to relax. Billboard is always on Gaga's team in the same way that pitchfork/nme are always up Skye or carlys asses. Certain publications just favor certain artists for whatever reasons y'all can argue amongst yourselves. But bottom line is you can't sit there and act like ANY of these publications matter. None of them matter. It's all b.s. so why sit and argue on this honestly. Just don't see the point.

Its disco influenced pop music. It all has a modern spin. 

Imo, its a great thing. Pop needed some of that funk and synth wave back compared to the chilled out meh we have had for 3 years now.

I always support Gaga 100%, but if she would put SL out before DSN, I would credit Gaga.

But DSN is definitely more disco than SL.

I believe it's "funk" 'cause "punk" is more of rock. But there's "Daft Punk" I guess I misunderstood.
