Guest Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I said what I said. In ‘Replay’ Lady Gaga brings back all her allegories of ‘Monster’. Both from the song ‘Monster’ off of The Fame Monster Deluxe but also from what she has always embodied Monsters as: her fans. ‘He ate my heart’ she laments in the 2009 track, ‘Am I still alive? The monster inside you is torturing me’ she continues on this new track, more than a decade later, going full circle on exploring how trauma has affected her life. The approach this time around can be see as a bit more different: more resigned, the dance-y melody in the background transports her and us and makes it feel like it’s ok. The music will get us through this, just dance, as a juxtaposition to the ‘Monster’ 2009 track where instead we could see a more scared, naive version of Gaga approaching trauma. On Gaga’s Spotify storyline she clarifies how she sees a trauma that plagued her as a driving force for being braver “But really Chromatica cannot exist without an abstract explanation of what it’s like to be triggered if you have PTSD.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nATAH 43,244 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 i think Stupid Love was a good light hearted return to dance pop, Replay would serve well as 3rd/4th single that helps promote the album's darker side more mother, what must i do? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout19 10,581 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I think Free Woman should've been the best choice Vino cu noi în bucătărie, adu cu tine și o farfurie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardlyaSaint 727 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 A lot more songs on Chromatica could have been singles but I think we’re about to enter a new era anyway, sooner than later. After about 6-8 months, Chromatica will have been 3 years ago. I think it’s time to bury all that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elijahfan 25,016 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I mean, I've said it before, I don't get the craze around Replay. I'm just not a big fan of the production, I think the remix is actually far superior. Stupid Love was the right single for what she wanted to introduce us to at that moment in time.

Anderson123 36,053 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Replay is a great song but it's a grower. Stupid Love was the right choice for lead single because Rain On Me was going to be a hit either way. Y'all love Replay now but this would've gotten dragged by fans as a lead single just like Perfect Illusion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHALLOW 15,765 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Anything should've been a single instead of Stupid Love Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumzy3000 6,983 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I think 911 should have been the lead single. trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhol killer 8,580 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Alice Rain On Me and then Replay (and the album release) Stupid Love could have been a promo single in between Alice and Rain On Me. Sour Candy next then Babylon could have been the tour single. warhol killer ✴ GAGA¹⁵ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
