MOT 2,642 Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 This isn't complicated imo. They both have giant fanbases, so a duet by the two of them starts with a huge advantage over a solo by either of them. There's also the small matter of the song being a really good song, plus I think it just sounds better as a duet than it would if either of them performed solo. It not only sounds better, but it's more interesting too, as in we've heard plenty of Bruno before and plenty of Gaga before, but we've never heard them together before. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both sing like 70% of the song, Bruno a bit more because of backing vocals and harmonies... 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

warhol killer 8,543 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 (edited) Gaga does great with ballads (Always Remember Us This Way, Shallow) Bruno also does great with ballads (When I Was Your Man, Talking To The Moon). Both of these great artists together in one ballad? It's a hit because of them together. I feel like the song would still be a hit if it was a solo song (either Bruno or Gaga) but I don't think it would be as big as it is right now.

Mr S 8,146 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 It's not black and white. If it was Bruno solo song, it would still smash. Though it probably doesn't have as big a debut. If it was a solo Gaga song, it would flop. Could you replace Gaga with anyone and expect similar results? No. Only Beyonce, Pink, Adele, and a few others who can pull off the vocal. The song works better as a duet, and the fact it's two big names brings a certain level of attention. It's lovely vocal performance at a time where no other song is sung as well. Also, Gaga's dance and look in the video went viral. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivy 11,589 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 No but the type of song is better between 2 people, like Shallow, because it's a love story Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decodekid 26,644 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Yes and no. I believe joining both artists made the end result more interesting for the public. It wouldn’t be as shocking to hear of a new solo Bruno Mars ballad, as well as a new Lady Gaga solo ballad. Long Live Gretchen Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Fudge 8,581 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 4 hours ago, Anderson123 said: Bruno and Gaga are mega stars and one would think that this duo formula would've been successful anyway but you just never know. Taylor and Ed Sheeran for example if you look at those names you'd expect anything they do to be a success yet End Game barely moved. Nailed it. It’s not about whether it’s a Gaga or Bruno song, at the end of the day, it’s a hit because the chemistry of two artists created something that wouldn’t exist without each of their trademarks in the best way Been a cuff touple, a puff bupple, a tough couple of years. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EGOT2027 10,800 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 i mean he definitely helps, but every comment i’ve seen from some GP fan of it is like “their two voices together are perfect!!!” like every positive comment mentions them both Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
