nATAH 44,700 Posted Sunday at 07:44 PM Share Posted Sunday at 07:44 PM I struggle to believe it's better than some of the songs she left in the chromatica vault mother, what must i do? 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashvilleGAGA 405 Posted Sunday at 08:06 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:06 PM 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas 24,934 Posted Sunday at 08:17 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:17 PM Bop! It's definitely one of the weaker tracks on Chromatica but it's really not as bad as people claim it is. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashnikko remix actually elevates the song, especially the chorus ironically i find the song way more interesting lyrically than abracadabra... here there are themes of exterior beauty and interior pain that are hinted at. sure, they could potentially be a bit more overt in their descriptions but no offense to gaga her lyrics have rarely been the most compelling part of her music tbh... like can anyone (who isn't a diehard fan) even really remember what alejandro or bloody mary are actually supposed to be about?...

Omegahedron 165 Posted Sunday at 08:28 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:28 PM Flop for me. I think the lyrics are just too on the nose for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
