It’s miles better than Perfect Illusion, that’s for sure. But I think we all know she’s capable of much better. The fact that she’s the queen of choruses and failed to write one is just...inexcusable. If it had a big chorus it would be a fantastic song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with Gaga. She’s just not the type to be so lazy that she can’t be bothered to write a chorus or to basic herself down for a radio hit...yet here we are. Every single one of her massive hits have “essays” for choruses. Born This Way is a mouthful and it was a giant number 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok to be fair 95% of her choruses are basically just the same 2-4 lines and/or the song title repeated over and over again. SL is no different than everything else lol...

SL is no different than everything else lol... Very lazy songwriter The difference, I think, is I want your stupid love is only one line. And it’s not a melodic one, either. It was probably slapped over a preexisting beat drop. For instance, “Can’t read my, Can’t read my, poker face” is only one line too - but it’s extremely melodic and crafted well so it doesn’t feel like an empty chorus.

I feel like a good chorus would be: "I want your stupid love! (Love) And I need it now! More than ever! Oh! I want your stupid love! (Love) And I know you got it! Deep within your heart! Oh!" ...

Well it's different, and it will take time to adjust, personally I think it's an amazing song, it's a perfect start to the era, and it's a DANCE song, not just a pop song Also yeah that prechorus is heavenly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SL is no different than everything else lol... Very lazy songwriter It's why I like her music because it's easy to f*cking remember and they're very catchy like "lets play a lovegame play a love game do you want love or do you want fame are you in the game?" "that boy is a monster (m-m-m-monster)" "can't read my, cant read my no he cant read my poker face" "I want your love and your lovers revenge you and me could write a bad romance" "I want to be that GUY (G-U-Y)" "John Wayne! dat da da deet do da da deet do baby lets get high John Wayne!" "You cant have my heart and you wont use my mind but do what you want with my body (do what you want with my body)" "I've had enough, this is my prayer That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair" "Stop callin', stop callin' I don't wanna think any more I left my head and heart on the dance floor" So, your case on "choruses should be long" is just irrelevant. It's dumb and pointless. Try again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every single one of her massive hits have “essays” for choruses. Born This Way is a mouthful and it was a giant number 1. Gaga leaves the story telling in her verses, prechoruses, bridges, etc "Just a second It's my favorite song they're gonna play And I cannot text you with A drink in my hand, eh You shoulda made some plans with me You knew that I was free And now you won't stop calling me I'm kinda busy" "I asked my girlfriend if she’d seen you 'round before She mumbled something while we got down on the floor, baby "We might’ve f*cked, not really sure, don’t quite recall But something tells me that I’ve seen him, yeah" "I'm gonna lace up my boots Throw on some leather and cruise Down the streets that I love In my fishnet gloves, I'm a sinner Then I'll go down to the bar But I won't cry anymore I'll hold my whiskey up high Kiss the bartender twice, I'm a loser I'm gonna marry the night I'm gonna marry the night" "I know that Mom and Dad think I'm a mess But it's alright, because I am rich as piss When I ignite the flames and put you in my mouth The grass eats up my insides, and my brunette starts to sprout Introducing, ladies and gentleman, Mary Jane Holland!" "Toast, one last puff and two last regrets Three spirits and twelve lonely steps Up heaven's stairway to gold Mine myself like coal A mountain of a soul Each day, I cry Oh, I feel so low from living high" "I wanna roll with him, a hard pair we will be A little gambling is fun when you're with me (I love it) Russian roulette is not the same without a gun And baby, when it's love, if it's not rough, it isn't fun (fun)" "Every John is just the same I'm sick of their city games I crave a real wild man I'm strung out on John Wayne" "I want your ugly, I want your disease I want your everything as long as it’s free I want your love Love, love, love, I want your love, hey! I want your drama, the touch of your hand, (Hey!) I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand I want your love Love, love, love, I want your love (Love, love, love, I want your love)" "Now, it's time to free me from the shame I gotta find that peace, is it too late or Could this love protect me from the pain? I would battle for you (Even if we break in two)" again, more evidence that a lengthy chorus isn't necessary and it's sometimes better to leave the story telling out of the chorus. think of a song as an essay. the chorus is the thesis statement. it should be the part of the song that sticks with people. its the part of the song that people remember. the verses, bridges, prechoruses, etc are the rest of the essay. They back up the thesis statement that's too short to be presented on its own. Does it make sense? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
