Fans love to gloss over that video because of the album it's tied to but let's not act like that video didn't serve.

My Name Isnt Alice 3,737 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I agree with some of your point specifically about the music video. The problem about criticizing SL is it would ruin the experience of those who really loves the song and the era's flow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMF 3,487 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 The Good: Great, uplifting tune High Energy Fantastic choreography Fun song i actually love the music video The not so Good: Song comes in quick and finishes as quick Lacks a clear bridge or length. PI was worse in this regard but still... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
just another gay 836 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Thank you for showing how a criticism should be made for those who only drop a "It's basic" line. And as much I enjoy SL, I agree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartySick 161,538 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I wish there was more of a chorus tbh. Only because singing along to "I want your stupid love-love ooh uh uh uh uhuh ooh" 60 times a day makes me look a tad silly You're stinky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Economy 50,353 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I do really like the song but the low budget video with dollar store clothing prop wears/fashion decor are kind of a letdown Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daylight Jokers 14,958 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 The song, lyrically is not the best. I still believe it needs a longer chorus with actual lyrics. It's more of a refrain than a chorus. The bridge's lyrics also felt a bit like a rough draft. I love the structure tho, the way the pre-chorus is longer than the verses is so interesting to me. Vocals, as usual, are strong. Not her strongest work, but it's good enough for a pop comeback. The MV, I liked it. The song doesn't need a narrative MV anyway since it's just a fun dance song. It doesn't need a story and a good choreo is good enough for it. The only reason some monsters were upset that the video was like that because they were presented with two teasers that felt like there's going to be some narrative in the MV. It does have one but they didn't focus much on it, which is fine. To me, it has replay value. Overall, I'm satisfied and elated with the song and video. The era's only going to get better from there. I'm also very excited to see how Gaga would talk about the album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumzy3000 7,398 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Personally, I think the song is pretty great and the music video strangely works. That being said, it still is a really basic song, considering we are talking about GAGA. I mean, you can say it’s meant to be fun and simple but truthfully, the songs from The Fame were fun and had simple messages but they were also had really clever lyrics, hypnotic beats and the songs very overall just more unique and interesting trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blue Madonna Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 6 hours ago, M Monstre said: That isn't to say that all of Chromatica's songs will be basic though. Facts. Honestly, what with her hanging out with SOPHIE and Hana and all that gang, I expect there to be some quite unique electronic pop music on Chromatica, and of course she is going to release the most commercially appealing song as the lead single. By basic logic, one would expect the lead to be the most basic. I hope she releases a second single and a promo single, to give us a taster of what else we can expect Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimisaMonster 31,073 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I do agree with a lot of what you said. Sure on the surface it's a catchy lil pop song with an 80s retro vibe that brings about a nostalgia for people However, as mentioned, the EXECUTION fell flat in regards to the concept of the video and the overall look...it did feel cheap especially the graphics of crystal mountains and those "I made this for my high school play" outfits the tribes dancers were wearing... The setting took place in 1 location....dirt Even Gaga admitted on NRJ that the song is "simple" and not to be taken too seriously but it doesn't help draw people into the "world" of Chromatica if its deemed so insignificant as an introductory to the album and its theme... makes the GP and fans alike go "EH!"

OMF 3,487 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Oh and I will add this? Can we all appreciate how there is an amazing dancer who is a big girl and yet she can out dance most dancers I know! She is one of the true highlights Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Temptation 11,209 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Gaga is still going against the trends here. Pop music today is either violent and morose or hypersexually charged. Nobody right now is making uplifting electropop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlayedForTheGod 665 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 i think a big issue with the video was styling for both gaga and the dancers. they look cheap and the iphone filming doesnt help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
