We most likely would've waited longer for the era to start if Gaga and her team picked something else. This would've been the best option, wait and decide what's the next best move after a tragic leak, even if we stans had to wait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 100% sure SL would be a fan favorite had it not been the lead single. It got bad rep because it failed to deliver the "success" lead singles are supposed to deliver, specially after ASIB. I do believe that the leak harmed its chances big time. And although I love the song, the truth is that the clear choice to be the lead was ROM. Bottom line is, Interscope and Gaga's stubbornness are at fault here for once again not knowing how to handle an era properly and successfully. If ROM was the lead, Gaga would not have gotten a solo top 10 single this era lol. The lead single needed to be solo, because that was the hype she had is what sent it to the top 10. Lady Gaga doesn't owe us anything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't. Fans were already complaining, what makes you think they would be okay if they waited longer. We are the most impatient fan base in existence. They were already planning promotional spots for Gaga throughout the course of March and April. It would be even messier if they had to changed all of that for a song that leaked and Gaga's "stubbornness". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is that handling eras properly pays off at lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HausOfAntonio 7,995 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I dont think anyone HATES Stupid Love, they’re just considerably more adamant about the rest of Chromatica... I love it and I think its a great single, but its still my least favourite on the album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think it was messy when she released Bad Romance after the demo leaked? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not buying it, switching a different lead wouldn't and shouldn't affect whatever plans they had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality 74,039 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I really want to like your post, but then you're saying to put the blame on Gaga and Interscope's "stubbornness." I do agree that SL is a great song and that it get faaaaar too much hate, but that doesn't have anything to do with Gaga's "stubbornness" at all. I do think that if it wasn't the lead, you'd definitely see people saying, "Why wasn't this the lead single?!", "It's so good!", "How could they have passed this up?!", etc. It also definitely would've been a fan favorite. I do think the leak hurt it a little, but also, Gaga wasn't ready to release it when it leaked. IIRC, The music video was filmed after it leaked. They weren't just going to rush things out like they had before. Y'all complained when Gaga/Interscope would do the whole "second single switch" thing because y'all thought that they were "too reactive." Well, this time they took their time and it turned out fine. It wasn't a smah hit, but it also wasn't a massive flop. It did fine. She got a Top 5 debut off of that song. ᗰᗩYᕼEᗰ || 🦇👹🖤 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have. You think that the SL choreography and video plan would have worked for any other single? They were rehearsing for SL around the same time that the song leaked so they would have had to change everything last minute, lowering production quality and extending the time it takes.

If they hadn't released the song before any other song on the album than it would've lost double the amount of streams on the album, single or not during the beginning era. It's the perfect lead, it's chosen for a reason, and if you don't like that than that's your problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brecht 7 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Stupid Love could be a killer track if it had better lyrics and a fully realized chorus. The beat is really explosive, it’s fun and loud. I also don’t think it fits between Alice and Rain On Me, those two tracks blend perfectly with each other. I don’t know where I’d put it tho.

I think that I would have put it in the second part of the album and switch it with Sour Candy or 911.
