The video being a homage to Bravo TV was so cringe. The only good part about the video was the beginning when she was a fallen angle and the executives were all about the money, and that hot look she had in that red outfit.

It was only monsters that thought it was amazing lol GP would've heard it and thought 'wtf'. A bit like Replay... GP taste is not the same as liddo taste 

I think a lot of the GP would dig or already dig Replay.

It's very disco, an accessible style. 

I don't want to make a Madonna comparison but it could be compared to Hung Up (which is basically ABBA's Gimme Gimme remixed). The GP digs old made into new. 

Kind regards

Well it has almost 200 million views on YouTube, we can rewrite history and pretend it was a hit, the GP won’t know :ally:.

OT: It flopped for many reasons and none have anything to do with the actual song.

Well it was released when everyone was already done with Gaga, plus that video was a mess :air:

When I have the aux and I play the few Gaga tunes I think a gathering of people can enjoy, GUY is always popular.. but the lyrics are so non GP friendly, no matter how fun the metaphors are 😝😝

Probably because it was released too long after the album release and too long after the previous single. 
 

And everyone on this site is still thirsty for a SC video as if it wouldn’t have the same fate...

It was simply DOA. The era was a PR disaster, Gaga was far past overexposed at that point, the public heavily disliked her, and there wasn't much promo for it. They could have pushed any song at that point and it would have flopped.

because she dropped the video after a hiatus and people have had already moved on from the era. even with the amazing mv that it had it made 0 noise:messga:

EDIT: also the sound was soo dated, gaga used to be ahead of music trends up until she released the BTW remixes and ARTPOP. after Joanne she was in a league of her own once again
