steven 6,023 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I agree with the OP. The production is weak compared to the others songs. Maybe Gaga was tired at some point and she asked Bloodpop to use free music samples from Garageband. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShayCristoforo 10,607 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Fun Tonight is a decent song to me. It has potential to be a great song but yes, the production is way too basic for the excellent writing Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time.

REALITY 77,308 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 The point of the song is to build up and have it go nowhere If y'all are offended that the song builds up and doesn't have a "proper chorus," THAT'S THE POINT! With a song title like "Fun Tonight," you'd expect it to be a fun, upbeat, energetic song about partying and hanging out with people, but it's the opposite. Externally, she builds herself up to have a fun night; she wants to just be around people she loves and adores, but reality sets in and, for her, things turn dark and somber quick. That's literally why the lyrics, "this moment's hijacked my plans" are there. She plans to have fun, she wants to enjoy herself, she wants to build herself up, but sometimes all that is stalled by her depression and anxiety. When people say, "Ew, I don't like FT. It doesn't go anywhere, the production's bland," I just think to myself, "Do y'all understand what the song's even about?

Putang Ina Mo 2,185 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Fun Tonight is definitely one of my fave songs from Chromatica but I feel like the final chorus needs more. my username says it all 🇵🇭 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
holy scheisse 22,299 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I think the way the production is forces you to listen to her words rather than focus on the beat, the way everything fades away and it's just Gaga belting sends me tbh. It does sound nice mashed up here with TEOG however. The kick drums from the btw era production are monotonous af tho. I appreciate the subtle production on fun tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defmix100 6,411 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 28 minutes ago, Linus Gaga said: I prefer the album version but the build up became the chrous is kinda cold ! Is like what they do for ROM, build up became the final chrous well in both songs the build ups are the chorus' the lack of drums just makes them feel different, it happened a lot in the 2010's especially in Dr Luke and Max Martin songs as well as some Gaga songs such as Aura and Applause Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Meister 3,000 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 The problem about Chromatica is that Gaga made the demos (some of them leaked and sound much better than the album versions), sent them to DJs to remix the songs, she liked them and put them in the album.

Gracious Gaga 17,163 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I think this is true for about half the songs on the album. It needed edgier and more cutting edge production. The production for most tracks is rather basic but fun tonight would only make sense as a ballad- not an upbeat fun dance song. ♥ Kindness Police.

Red 98,200 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 It doesn't solve the song's "problem" (in quotes cause it's far from my own opinion), most people complain the drop after the chorus is "disappointing" If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

Chromatography 10,186 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 the biggest problem with chromatica is the production, wbk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
