Which song do you like more?
I like both, but Judas is in my top  10 favorite songs from Gaga. :heart:

Vino cu noi în bucătărie, adu cu tine și o farfurie.

Judas untopped.

I think it's top 5 for me, it's a serve all around, the choreography, the music video, the song structure, the chorus, the bridge, the melody, the instrumental, the cultural reset.

It is also Gaga's most intelligent song and music video. There are so many hidden references.

She even used biblical verses to describe the scenes, for example here, 697, which actually is Psalm 69:7: "Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face". 
(gives Taylor Swift vibes :billie:)

Earlier in that same verse:

"Save me, O God, for the waters have come up to my neck, I sink in the miry depths" which actually represents the scene where she was being engulfed by the waters after blessing Judas to give Jesus the kiss of death.

I have only one tattoo and it’s inspired by Judas. Alejandro will always be my number 1 tho cuz I’m always in the mood to listen to it.

Alejandro.

Judas is a bad romance rip off and imo hasn’t aged as seamlessly as Alejandro 

Pronounced like “Balenciaga” . Emphasis on the “Ga”

No, but really, Judas 'cause the live performances always GO OFF while Alejandro's always fell flat for me. The exception being the original Monster Ball performances with the blood fountain :anveeroy:

Judas at Enigma > every Alejandro (other than TMB)

Judas/Aura at the artRAVE > Alejandro at the artRAVE

Judas at the BTWB > Alejandro at the BTWB

You get the picture :anveeroy:

Judas is Bad Romance 2 and Alejandro is Ace of Base’s Turn Around mixed with ABBA’s Fernando. :ladyhaha: But damn they’re both so good.

Why do so many people like Judas? It’s really a Bad Romance rip off that started the end of Gaga’s pop domination.

Yes, Alejandro is a rip off of Ace of Base, but they were in the 90’s and it’s a different artist. 

In my view, artist ripping off their own hit from a year ago is a bigger ‘sin’

For me, it's the usability of the track.

Alejandro's been done at the blood fountain but every other time it's been a boring performance. Well, as boring as a Gaga performance can be :chica:

But Judas ALWAYS shakes the place down. Whether it's a short prelude to Aura or if it ends with her shredding over the DJWS remix with fire and sh*t shooting out of the stage :bradley:

If we're just talking about the studio tracks, they're pretty even sonically imo. But Judas' meaning hits harder than Alejandro. It's better lyrically too.

You might as well be comparing Scheiße and Telephone or The Edge of Glory and Million Reasons :messga:
