Ladle Ghoulash 23,549 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 (edited) The pre-chorus eats, the production is cute, it’s a catchy feel-good song, but imo, not one of the stronger tracks on Chromatica and probably my least favorite Gaga lead single.

socotra 3,310 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 One of my favorite Gaga songs and totally unlike any other in her discography. Joyful but melancholy, catchy in a unique way (and why I suspect a lot of people don't fw it – its chorus/hook are not typical Gaga). It's unfortunate the video is so bad. I think people might like the song itself more if the video was in the vein of BR/Judas/Abra. Also can't help but think its chart performance impacts its reception as well. If it had hung around in the top 5 a few more weeks, I don't think people would be so hard on it. Ultimately one of her most underrated and misunderstood songs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKindnessKunt1999 6,062 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 I love the song. I know that this is a very popular opinion, but I’m not a fan of Ricky Jackson’s choreography. I don’t really do back to the music video for that reason. All I could say is that the choreography definitely had a glow up with Paris Gobel as the choreographer.

retrosexual123 859 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 The issue with the video isn’t that it was shot on iphone but that the fashion looks cheap and costume-like. The choreography too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatfoxyfeeling 13,006 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Disliked it ever since it leaked. It's her worst lead single and I've hidden it on spotify. 1 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo it’s not even apples fault - it’s not the videography that makes it look as bad as the hair makeup styling and choreography . And the set . Could’ve been shot on a professional industry camera and still would’ve looked as bad as it looks now Edited July 13 by Controversiaga Pronounced like “Balenciaga” . Emphasis on the “Ga” 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like it was done on an extreme budget for a uni project, where they had to up cycle old clothes with items found at party city and a sex shop, styled by a weeb who applies the in game girl costumes. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
popkulture 273 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 The song itself is mid and my least favorite lead single. I can't stand the chorus, it was diabolical to work with Bloodshart. The video was and still is exciting to me in some ways. The title graphics and the power rangers nod is clever. I wish the video gave a storyline and it was an 8 minute music video. But oh well. We all know how awful the choreography is so no need to address that. The fashion is corny but weirdly works/isn't such a low point for me.

Noir 17,187 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 I like the song, don’t love it like I once did but I wouldn’t skip. I think it would’ve served better as a promo single given the leak and that it’s such a weak lead, in hindsight I wish Alice was the lead single and we still got SL as a promo single (with a much better video).

ThisGuyTony 30,171 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 No other pop girl would deliver a “stupid” pop song with this type of vocal range tbh Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMontebello 403 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 (edited) Loved the song when ot came out and I still enjoy it BUT it is on the weaker side of Gaga's catalogue and I wouldn't have picked it as the lead. The video is kind of fun... but not very good at the end of the day. It was giving rushed release or sudden change of plans a la Edge of Glory but it was not the case. The concept of tribes from an alien planet I understand it's supposed to look like a B-movie but it was very poirly executed and I don't know how much of it is due to being shot on iphone.
