O love it, definitely one of my fave Gaga ballad

 

BUT the chorus progression seems very familiar :oprah:

 

It does sounds like the bella porch/APT chords but I think there's more similar one.

'Cause even though the church burned down
I'll be your queen without a crown
I've been so lonely in this field
Fightin' a battle with no shield


these are some of her most beautiful lyrics 🖤

Really liked this one, it reminded me of “The Holy Mountain” by Poppy but don’t know why, maybe because it has this kind of mistic vibe to it. Also in the end it really reminded of Happy Mistake which at this point for me deserved to have another spot here in this album

The bridge... my god, that bridge.

"I'll give you something, yeah it's no diamond ring... the air that I'm breathing... forever's not enough..."

It’s a sweet song. But personally I’ll probably only listen to it when I’m completely depressed

OG fans get this album. I’m in love with it. The vocal progression through the chorus is just absolutely beautiful. Especially knowing she wrote this about how Michael proposed to her and how she wanted it. It’s gorgeous. Wow wow wow. I believe those of you who don’t like this album are under 25 :oops:

I was like fine while listening to the rest of the album, then this song came on and then the more it went, the more emotional I got out of nowhere omg. I know she was singing about Michael proposing, but as a fan since The Fame it sounded like she's sing to me/us too, "and we'll make it last"--and like the past 15 years of her work and me following it just flashed through my mind and I started making ugly faces lmao. Oh my Gaga you did that. I loooooove this song, the same way I love Angel Down and Brown Eyes and Speechless and Thousand Doves and Gypsy, etc. Still emotional tbh :traumatica:

Excellent transition to DWAS, too. Similar mood and vibe.

That first part! It's really like TF and TFM maturing, after having ugly crying laughing conversations with BTW, ARTPOP, Joanne and Chromatica. Blade of Grass was so vocally emotional, giving same emotional performance as that final song from A Star is Born. I just turned 30, so maybe your hypothesis is correct :bradley:

With this song and many others, I really enjoy the key in which she sings the choruses or parts of the album. Like She's up there but sounds so comfortable and not yell-y. Vocals soar but have peaks and valleys where there should be some. "Like we've known her our own life" indeed.

You are small men. You are not worthy to rule the Dothraki.

The lyrics are deeply impactful, and the song embodies a classic glam rock ballad style that you’d expect from glam-inspired alt rock bands. It brought to mind Suede’s ballads, particularly dramatic yet simple tracks like He’s Gone or Astrogirl, which are staples from one of the most celebrated indie icons of the '90s—natural heirs to David Bowie’s legacy.
