hes def lying but idrgaf. MAYHEM will chart for 100+ weeks on the billboard 200 because of this song

So NOW, having this information, and knowing that not only is the track a part of the album, but also the CLOSER, how do y'all feel about Gaga's most successful song closing out Mayhem?

Spoiler

Y'all saying she stated at some point It was a standalone single or whatever... STAY PRESSED!!! PERFECT DELLUSION!!! It was all part of a bigger plan, the reals been knew 👌

[Decodekid 27,844]

I don’t mind it being on the album but this all feels like a PR move to change the narrative a bit. Gaga herself said “it was the missing piece” so idk what he’s saying

I get the feeling that some of the people on this thread would do well in a cult

Can we all stay grounded in reality? This isn't complex.

Gaga said Disease was the, and I quote, "LG7 first single".

Now, Die With A Smile is also, by definition, a single. However, Die With A Smile is not LG7's first single that released in October. Unless I'm mistaken and Disease came out in August and Die With A Smile came out in October (/s).

This really couldn't be more simple. It's a retroactive decision, and retroactive framing, because Die With A Smile was a smash hit.

The amount of mental gymnastics going on as to not commit some sort of heresy against Gaga is wild. Surely we've all aged beyond this?

Why do they feel the need to lie? it was a huge success and deserved a place in an album, so Gaga snatched it. Periodt. Just say it

This fanbase would’ve rioted if Gaga said DWAS was the lead single. Most people didn’t even like the song until it charted, now you’re mad it’s on the album??

Which is why my consistency on the issue is unrivaled: never liked the song and especially don’t like it now that it’s being shoehorned onto the album merely because it’s successful

so.... you agree it wasn't originally intended for the album aka he is lying cool!

Even as a DWAS lover, I don't think this is true whatsoever. They're putting the song on the album because it's super popular—which is great, I have no issue with it—but it definitely was not intended to be part of MAYHEM originally.

You guys are insufferable... He never said which Gaga album, he never said it was meant for MAYHEM. It could've been for Harlequin as it fits that album perfectly, meanwhile Happy Mistake could've been on Mayhem too.
