Meltdown over ‘Yoü and I’ as a single

[Lucas 21,713]

I didn't like the Born This Way album at all and first and when You & I was released as a single, I fell in love with the song and only listened to this for like an entire month... Then I gave another chance to Born This Way and fell in love with the album and it's now my favorite album of all time. Maybe if Gaga didn't release You & I as a single I would've never been a Gaga fan

Same with Paparazzi, I didn't care much for her before listening to this song, then I fell in love and listened to it on repeat, and it pushed me to discover the rest of her music.

Technically it didn’t do too well commercially, it was quite a flop for her at the time, but people were getting tired and no song would have been major imo.

That video is fabulous. I remember being between life and death watching it for the first time, my migraine was so terrible… but Gaga gave me a solution for that 

It was Judas that sealed her fate IMO. That was the downfall

It’s one of my favorite Gaga videos 🧜‍♀️

you mean there was a poll before the ARTPOP one?!

Yes I can't remember if it was her website or here but I remember there being like 4 options and Scheiße won by a lot. You and I wasn't even close.

This song is completely self written too; no co-writers 

[Edonis 27,373]

literally one of her best videos, top 5 for me honestly. I kind of wish she went with that theme of Americana fantasy (Big Fish 2003 teas) during Joanne. It's such a unique feeling that you don't quite see much of.

'Boringest'

'Scheibe'

And now Judas is her 2nd most streamed song daily and is beloved by Gen Z.

It just goes to show how mishandled the era was. YAI is a GREAT track, top 3 for me, but her team was literally scrambling at that point when it was released.  It deserved to be a US single only, or if she wanted it worldwide, release it last. She had the 1-2-3 punch of BTW- MTN- TEOG- right THERE!!! But her team was like "let's create more controversy (Judas)!!! or lets copy Adele (YAI)!!!" They messed it up cuz they got greedy. I feel for Gaga at that time, they tried to Milk everything she was worth. I know some say downfall was ARTPOP, but looking closely it was BTW era. Im not saying Judas/ YAI shouldnt have been singles, they deserved to be, but they sounded like 5th/6th single material/territorial. Anyways, BTW continúes to be her best album for me, just thought the visión for it was messed up by greedy SOBs.

No but I remember being upset because I remember how when she preformed this song at the Monster ball , she would never put it on an album or sell the song. The first Gaga betrayal lmao

I mean you weren’t wrong. The TASTE jumped out with Scheiße and Marry The Night

I have always said this! 

Edit: although not necessarily because of the single choices, though it surely played a part.

During this time I had a friend on there who posted she was filming the Government Hooker video and would debut a controversial performance of it at the VMA’s and I believed every word  

To be fair the vma tease did have government hooker even I thought she was going to perform it
