Pray4FameGa 3,141 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I know I’ll get dragged for this, but am I the only one who is lowkey gutted at this comeback? As a huge fan I always thought her return to pop, so long in the making, would be legendary and she’d cement herself with some big classic songs. Instead SL is like a mediocre radio song that any of them could have put out, and she’s like oh btw got some Ariana duets xoxo. GIRL WAT U BEEN DOING OMG. I really think all her creative energy went into ASIB. Even when Gaga has failed commercially though she has been interesting. This is so inoffensive I can’t even say if I like or dislike it.

There's literally at least ten people who say this everyday, so no. And the entire album's not out yet, SL is just one song. Stop being so dramatic.

In my opinion, Gaga’s approach to kindness and love is very dated and can come across as forced and cringy to the average listener/fan. It’s almost like (and I have said this before) she was trying too hard to make it digestible for the GP that she ended up making it baby food. She made bolder statements when she was less campy and more ‘serious’ (and that still involved all the high fashion, the rah rahs and the inbetweens). She should leave that KP campy/quirky video vibe to the side and focus on what made her a powerhouse and force in music which is high fashion and dark-pop. When people think Gaga, they think innovation and new, but this felt like she was just casually surfing the waves other pop stars set instead of creating her own whirlpool. The comment about the kindness / love thing hit me, that stands out to me the most when I watch the video. It’s super cringe to me and the video loses any potential or impact because she’s scared to show a hint of violence. There’s two gays sissy slapping each other, the tribes have toy guns for show. She interrupts them so easily and they start dancing. And kindness punks? Really? It’s too gay for me. This woman wore a dress made of raw meat and bled to death during one of her performances starting out. What happened to that artist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyM 1,262 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I mean I am not surprised at all. I love Gaga with all my heart but SL is a good song, that's it. It just sounds dated and nothing evolutionary. Even my mum thought it was basic and that's saying something. Also I feel people were all waiting for CrazyGa to be back when she got back into pop, but this time on the contrary she disappeared. There is no promo at all and you can't really do that when you make a comeback. We all have to remember that her looks played a big part in marketing. sales etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying getting into a new hobby, maybe that will help you not be so invested in something you clearly don't like, and which is honestly so irrelevant and pointless. There are so many worse things to be worried about. What's the point of stanning if you can't just enjoy a simple pop song? Maybe it's time for you to step back. chaeri pls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BabylonHooker 4,305 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 lol at people who tell someone to get a job, a new hobby or stan another artist every time they say they don't like the song. Can y'all come up with sumn else ? If we don't like it, we say it, we can't pretend to like it. I'm sure there are several songs on the album that we will love but this SL song, we don't like it but we still stream it to help her on the chart. that's it. simple. Okay? don't quote me.

pedrohemg 7,802 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 What's Gaga doing to her pop career?Why did she release SL? Or maybe she didn't want to but Interscope forced her, I don't know. But I'm sad for her tbh. Look at today's Spotfy numbers. Already below 500k streams in US. That's really bad because the song still has a huge support in playlists. And it's #15 on Itunes now. Some fans keep relying on radio but radio alone can't hold a song. We need at least two metrics: stream + radio or radio + very good sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
