steven 5,963 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Applause is among her best songs, it's just such a fun song everyone can relate to. Gypsy might be cool but kinda too cringey for my taste. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsy 3,826 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Yessssss the best song on ARTPOP periodt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TINDER 2,383 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 It would have done better than A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E for sure! Back in the day i was a new fan, and didn't understand what is she talking about in the verses;- "If only fame had an IV baby could I bear" , i was like she needs an IV drip!

I understand why it would be a slur in like what? Romania idk really. OT: It probably would've been head-to-head with Roar but then we wouldn't have had the beautiful music video and all the amazing performances Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMiddleGround 3,274 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 No. Apart from the acoustic version and the first verse it is a downgrade from anything else she has ever down in terms of pop music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isidro Guevara 821 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Only if it was trimmed a bit. I really like the song but some of the production sounds...cheesy. If it was more acoustic it would have been better. It is still a great track though. I'll WRECK U right Up...G.U.Y.!!!🌋💥 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavymlover 340 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I think Applause was a good lead single. It had a couple of odd references in the lyrics, but overall I think it was a good choice. I'm 100% convinced Gypsy should've been a single, though. In my opinion that's the biggest missed opportunity in her whole discography Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauntingHollow 4,310 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Applause was trully a wtf choice, a song that noone can relate to, a song that asks for attention literally, the lyrics during the verses are cringe af, i still struggle to figure out why people like it at all. You can not hide if nobody pays attention to you :* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t understand the hype over Gypsy. 😕 No, I think Applause was the best choice. Because Gypsy is like one of the most GP-friendly (in terms of sound) tracks on the album... I also loved Applause as a lead but Gypsy could've be a great single (I think the singles were good, anyways but they could've done a better job with the era) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I continuously believe it is meant to be a double meaning lyric 1. She needs an IV drip to stay alive - reference to her injury 2. If only fame had a FOURTH - as in ARTPOP bc it was her fourth album.

President Biden 5,898 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 yessss as a Little Gypsy-er, that would’ve been iconic. as a Little Manager, I think Applause was still the best choice for radio & fan appeal success. The best choice would have been: Applause for lead in the summer MANiCURE for promo single to keep up hype drop album with Gypsy for single 2, massive winter hit likely - Grammys performance Venus for single 3 around Valentine’s Day surprise Donatella / Fashion! mv with a announcement GUY for single 4 in the spring I Wanna Be With You for single 5 - essentially a tour promo single w performance vid I got drunk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
