SimonBaetens 8,992 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Now that we’ve heard MAYHEM in all of its glory, I feel like Happy Mistake would have fit on it perfectly.

SOON 4,260 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 I agree both sonically and visually (my head is filled with broken mirrors) it fits gaga, halsey, lorde, taylor, dua 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynamite 62,553 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 I agree, had the same thought earlier when it started playing after the album finished and it didn't sound out of place! Like a poem said by a neydy in red 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomKack 6,656 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 It would have been perfect in that section around The Beast and Blade of Grass 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOriginalOne 11,189 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Yes she should have added it instead of the Taylor song. Would have been a perfect album. 4 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavadour 2,560 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Yes. I was thinking the same yesterday, when listening to Mayhem for the first time. Late to the party but I got a diamond heart 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenWonder 4,521 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 I really like Blade of Grass, but Happy Mistake is a stronger ballad imo. I mean, that chorus! I would have loved for HM to replace BoG, but that's such a nitpick. The album is a ten for me. HM would have made it an eleven. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine Prince 108,025 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Happy Mistake is better than 1/3 of MAYHEM so it would have absolutely elevated it imo. 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGagaOfItAll 178 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Anything to replace How Bad Do U Want Me, honestly Nobody's gonna heal me if I don't open the door 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celloo Deng 55,581 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 It should totally be on Mayhem she/her 🖤 Gaga, Billie, MJ 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanish Into You 166 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 She should've just re-released it on MAYHEM 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOT 3,362 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Agree 100%, but blame JFAD. Harlequin was meant to cash in on JFAD-mania, and Happy Mistake was selected as a strong single to fit the JFAD vibe, but ..... alas poor Yorick. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Gaga 22,999 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Although the song is glorious and, in some way, it fits lyrically...i find mayhem a very joyfull and happy album. And Happy Mistake is very, very sad...the album would end on a sad note, but with DWAS (or even Blade of Grass), it's still hopefull and resilient 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
faysalaaa 5,114 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 Yes and I like it much better than DWAS 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 98,540 Posted March 7, 2025 Share Posted March 7, 2025 I’m 100% convinced it was meant to be on Mayhem but she decided to put it in Harlequin for whatever reason If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
