I don’t think it’s gonna become a Die With A Smile global smash. But it’s better than the last 3 lead singles. 

Well DWAS became a global smash hit because it’s generic radio fodder  this on the other hand is actually interesting music

In a world of hold my hands and soundtracks, jazz covers, adult contemporary wedding anthems…. We truly deserved this dark pop banger 

We may now blow our Alejandro candles out as our work here is done sisters 

amen

Currently it’s a grower, however I have only streamed it once (I stayed up til 5am). I think that Disease is probably very tame compared to what we could expect from the album, so I am extremely excited, sonically I think Disease is great, I’m just not completely in love with the lyrics just yet, but I do need to listen to it a few more times. It just didn’t wow me straight away but it did spark excitement for the album. I hear some Judas influence in there which is cool.

I think that with the likes of The Fame Monster and Born This Way perhaps this single just doesn’t seem DarkGa enough.

Overall i like the song and dark vibe but wth is up with that production? The song is so unclear at times

Are we all listening to the same song? What device are you listening on? 

I find this song very clear?

Like very clean production

this album is going to be her very own Ray of Light, and that's a compliment since ROL is the greatest Madonna album imo

btw something in my mind just isn't able to not think there's a middle eastern or indian influence in her melodic ah-ah-aaahs

Tbh it will be Ray of Dark  Here for it

[Chlorine 47,976]

Forgettable concept and lyrics really tank it. The production deserved better. Oh another spin on “bad romance” this theme is extremely tired at this point. 

[MACATL 1,474]

Seriously meh.  I think I’m just no longer into her darker themes and sounds when it comes to her original pop music.  Brighten it up a bit Gaga.  Reality can be dark enough.  Hopefully the album has more fun and uplifting  tracks on it.

Interesting track, but not brilliant, nor a banger in my opinion.

The main problem Is that it is not radio-friendly at all, nor particularly strong. And that's a tragic choice for the lead single of a huge pop star as Gaga.

Let's be realistic, one of the main goals of a (legendary) pop icon as Gaga is is to reach the biggest number of people (coherently with her target). Well, I feel like the engagement with the song is just very poor for me and I am a long-time fan (and love experimental Gaga, just look at my nickname). Sadly, I think that I'm not the only one feeling like that (I've seen the same reaction in both Gaga's fans and gp)

Also, I find just unprofessional that her fiancé is credited as cowriter in her lead single, like seriously?!

NEVERTHELESS, I am confident in the gems that LG7 will contain (loving the Abracadabra and DITS snippets) 

I feel like the main reason why the reception is so overwhelmingly positive is because it's practically a return to her dark, industrial electropop side that we haven't seen in years. However, the song itself, for me, just doesn't hit at all⏤it doesn't even stand up to the quality of Scheiße or Judas, it falls flat when compared to them.

But boy I am ready to have my bussy quaked with the rest of LG7.

Nah it is very good music with killer vocals that the world has been thirsty for, which is why everyone is drawn to it.  

[ModernEcstasy 8,998]

On first listen I didn’t like it. 
But 5 hours later, it’s quickly becoming my favourite lead ever. 
I can’t wait for the video. Please say it’s coming soon. 

[Bonkers 29,483]

reading the glowing reviews, my first thought is, "wow, some of you are REAL Gaga fans".  

 

It's definitely in the top 10 Halloween anthems I've heard in the last few years.
