angelduuh 530 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Being honest I don't think she is going to release more singles. But I hope I'm wrong... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
matteonster 504 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 I think the song works really well to close off the show and I also feel like there might be some plans for it to be a single. Do you guys remember the ig post from 3rd June with a camera emoji? It had a similar vibe to the aesthetic of the performance from last night. “Don't you ever let a soul in the world tell you that you can't be exactly who you are.” 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She performed it on television, and the song was a highlight of the album. Apparently her sister's boyfriend made this: it is official, just not... something that her label put out. It's official footage, put together by people close to her, just not really an official music video pushed by her label. Think of it as a "Cake Like Lady GaGa" kind of film, it comes from her, without any label support. I think this was made by her sister's boyfriend (at the time) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could very much see a "live from the Mayhem ball" video that uses the encore performance. It feels perfect for a mid tour music video. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let’s get real, it’s done. Pack it up, delicious. I love what we’ve gotten, but it’s just not enough or what the album deserves. Could have been the magnum opus, will end up being a small repeak. This. We did get a lot of promo and was fun dont get me wrong but the era felt so... short??? I was sure with a well performing album and one she was putting more energy into wed finally get more than just 3 singles in an era Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJVL 47 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 This encore she sort of did it at the reahersal for the Copacabana show. She started the rehersal with HBDYWUM with sunglasses at backstage with the dancers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Oak 7,706 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Nah, it's just that HBDYWM is getting popular + her label is oushing it a bit, but it didn't fit at all in the Opera House storyline. So she added it as encore to please everyone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewing on pearls 519 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 in the original setlist it felt oddly placed to me?? and it seemed to bring the energy of the show to a plateau. adding at the end with a campy wink after the credits feels like a blooper reel or BTS footage, and there's this meta quality when she says "that girl in your head aint real, how bad do you want me for real" because the stage production is technically over, but it's like she's pulling the curtain back and saying: do you still like me, wigless, in comfy clothes, as myself? idk I think it's genius 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewing on pearls 519 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 but to answer your question, I think it is already acting as an unofficial/promotional single, so I don't think there's a need for them to give it full single treatment Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has so much more potential that could be unlocked imo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a great use of that song 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the songs that are very obviously about her struggle with fame, I like to think HBDUWM represents that healing moment on the Chromatica Ball tour where she realised she can still do it and that the fans are still there for her not that very specific period of her 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
