BTW singles if it were a streaming-era album

just gotta say from the outset, i think BTW is gaga's magnum opus and, a decade later, i think it's aged extremely well. Imo, these songs sound just as fresh as they did 10 years ago, and i love that a couple of them (Judas, Bloody Mary) have found new audiences in the TikTok generation.

i remember during the actual BTW era when a lot of fans were pushing songs like Scheiße, Government Hooker, Heavy Metal Lover, etc. as potential singles and, back then, i just didn't get it. Given the influence of radio on the charts, I didn't see how any of those songs taking off on radio, and thus not doing well.

However, with streaming, the old rules of the industry are gone and artists are no longer burdened by releasing singles that are "radio-friendly." With the news of BTW Reimagined, i was thinking – if BTW were released during the streaming era, how would that change the calculus for which singles to release? I think a significant number of songs on the album would be better received by the GP today than in 2011.

For me –

1) Marry the Night

2) Born This Way

3) Judas

4) Bloody Mary

5) Scheiße

6) The Edge of Glory

They would be 2:59 or less in length 

imo that’s unimaginable for TFM & BTW

If Gaga was at her peak now I guess those songs would be "tiktok hits"

If made for the streaming era then every song on the album is about 1-2 minutes too long :neyde:
