Yxilon 5,248 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Why should I be mad? Except J&D, Sexxx Dreams is ARTPOP's weakest track, especially if it was meant to feat. Robin Thicke, sorry not sorry Spoiler imo Gypsy would have been a better lead single tho, especially if released around June 2013 Everything could be everything (it could mean anything) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtpopAct2 2,672 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 No. Applause is the better song, as well as having a message that better encapsulates the era. The iconic VMA performance wouldn’t have happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine Guy 09 13,941 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I thought we all knew this - the leads were either Sexxx Dreams, Aura, Applause - I had heard Applause was some kind of compromise between the other two lol Stare at the Chartster in the mirror they talk to me too. #StreamFunTonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A R T P O P 545 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Applause was the perfect song to introduce ARTPOP to the GP. Sexxx Dreams is a fab song but wouldn't really have worked for the mainstream because the lyrics are NSFW and would likely have only been pushed to Adult Contemporary. G.U.Y. should have been the first single. She should have kept IWBWY and released that as a single. I know it isn't EDM and doesn't fit with the album we got but would have probably exposed Gaga to the GP in a way they wouldn't have previously seen her. My biggest problem with ARTPOP is that it's a solid collection of perfectly crafted, if utterly unmarketable pop songs. It's my favourite from her because she understood exactly what we wanted to hear and it was totally lacking in pretense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is that she said something different back then so not sure what to believe anymore. This tbh. I often notice that she tells drastically different behind the scenes stories sometimes.

God Control 2,181 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 It wouldn’t have worked as a single, let alone the lead. It’s a nice album track which could’ve benefited from a video or being part of a visual album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerMonsterNotta 1,310 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I think it would smashed. I feel like that sound in the chorus back in 2013 would have really appealed to the GP. However I think the verses needed work, and some tweaking to make radio friendly - if this was in fact the aim of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
