NashvilleGAGA 466 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 It’s a bop. And it’s a crime that we didn’t get a live performance of it at TCB. She could have made something magic from that. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashnikko remix actually elevates the song, especially the chorus This is the superior version "634 blowjobs in 5 days.

Lucas 25,642 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Bop! It's definitely one of the weaker tracks on Chromatica but it's really not as bad as people claim it is. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s saying don’t play with ME or treat me like a play thing, not that boys shouldn’t play with dolls.

I think for plastic doll the issue is it’s a very obvious metaphor and performed as obviously as you’d think. So you kind of expect it to maybe do more and it doesn’t. Abracadabra on the other hand doesn’t really purport to be about anything than setting the dance floor on fire, slay! It’s just a dance track. Judging them by the standards they set themselves I think is what changes reception Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, i know it was the idea of the song because Gaga would never portrait a message like that, but lyrically it could be more fortunate.
