Some "fans" really make it a point to exorcise the joy and excitement out of new releases. Pathetic and embarrassing.

Agree. It’s heartbreaking. And then they gaslight you by saying it’s their opinion, as if that makes it acceptable to be so rude and hurtful lol

[ceminay 472]

Since she's also releasing the instrumentals of these versions, she needs to release the Disease original instrumental ASAP. The production of the song slaps, I need to hear it officially, rather than waiting for a leak.

[River 104,695]

Some people are really campaigning to hate Disease, it became their full time job lol

Like they waited for her to release it just to hate it.

Just stop posting, really, you expressed your opinion, you don't like it, or the acoustic versions, whatever, fine, we accept it, but then just stfu, what are u trying to accomplish?

[TEANUS 12,364]

Some of yall are so silly 

Gaga has literally always done versions of her songs like this, it’s just now they’re capitalizing on them and allowing all the views and listens to be officially attributed it to her accounts. If she was just doing these on random media forums then yall would be saying “why don’t they ever upload her acoustic versions to streaming!!” so how is she to please you? The OG Disease is still there just like it was after The Antidote. Next I hope she shows yall THE DOOR.

That bridge is heaven, her voice and the guitar is perfect. The ending is beautiful too 

[Ladle Ghoulash 16,153]

This version honestly sounds like a different take than the one that leaked. She sounds fantastic, specifically love the vocal adlibs on the bridge.

Not to mention she’s also doing TikToks and posting on social media nearly every day and sometimes multiple times in a day. An interview with Vogue just came out. They did alllll the proper playlisting and digital promo that they could. I guess she has to perform the song on good morning America at 8 am for y’all to realize we’re in a Gaga era. We’re 3 weeks in and we’ve gotten a music video and two performance videos with both alternative versions available on streaming like??

I hate this whiny kind of vocal overall this is so unpleasant and the song is not even that strong to justify this type of performance. I hope this is the last little crumb of Disease so we can move on to 2025 and some other songs. 

She doesn't need to justify anything to anyone. She is clearly in a good place and releasing things on her own terms and what feels right to her.

The bitter truth for you - which you are yet to accept - is that you have moved on from Gaga as an artist. Your definition of what Gaga "should be" is how you remember her in her past years. Unfortunately, if you were a real fan, you would know by now that working as much as she did back in the day hurt her deeply. She was viewed as nothing but a cash cow - a constantly working money machine that had to satisfy record labels and "fans" alike.

She has stated on multiple occasions that if she's not into something, she will simply say no. This means that the new, in-control, fully realized, and evolved LG does not fit your definition of what she should be. In other words, she is not the Plastic Doll you want her to be, nor will she ever be. 

This leaves you with two options: continue hating or change the channel. 

Actually, you know what? there's a third option. You can become an artist yourself and do things how your fans dictate they should be. Do it and kindly report back to us and tell us how amazing it is. I'm rooting for you.

and yet it doesn't feel like it.
The world is turning to Scheiße and we're expected to keep dancing and pretend it's all fine. It feels futile to talk about streams and charts and visuals when we're about to enter such a gloomy period. 

In my personal case, I can't be excited for new music because of this.

Also, yeah, the acoustic (why are there two...? They're so similar as well) versions do nothing for me, I don't listen to the original much anymore, and she doesn't bring me as much joy and comfort as she did in the past. I also find the TikTok posts embarrassing. Feels like she's TEMU-ing her brand, even if yes, I know that's where GenZ (potential new fans) are. Sad.

Funny if you are just a loser. You just sound pathetic from my point of view. Very 2000 and late. Lol

The mental illness y’all…the disease gaga is referring to lmfao

[juicyjuicy 1,642]

Wow. Amazing. It’s giving Alanis Morissette, Radiohead, Flyleaf, Portishead…

Would LOVE a full out rock/metal version, but this slays too.

I would love to see a full acoustic album from her - that would be incredible.

[ceminay 472]

I’m all for people criticizing and debating, but some of you guys need to get a grip. It’s just a recorded performance, and she doesn’t even owe you that.

I’m guessing a lot of fans remember their teenage years when we are all more innocent, and everything in the world felt more exciting to us, including following Gaga. She’s now 15 years older, just like all of us. If you went back to 2009 with your today self, you would probably be more critical of her and yourself then than you were before. Really, just relax and take what you like. Not liking a song is one thing, but complaining about a performance of hers is kinda silly. If you don’t like it, it’s probably not worth spending your time on a Lady Gaga forum, and that’s totally fine.
