Remember the MANiCURE movie video script that leaked in those ARTPOP documents last year? Omg..

some of u keep begging for the “real” ARTPOP and Act II, but there’s a reason we will never see it. It literally wouldve been the final nail in Gaga’s coffin :huntyga:

The music video would’ve been a tour compilation with hopefully some cute backstage footage 

The MV did leak and it was as you described. 
 

Or did I start losing my memory and mind:ladyhaha:

I've heard some of the plans they had for ARTPOP, even ones that weren't in those leaked documents, and I have to wonder if that era was unique in how ambitious but ultimately failed it was :rip: 

But it's nice to look back and remember a time when her decisions were still driven by the art and what she wanted to make rather than what would sell or chart well.

Excuse you, Dope peaked at #8 :grr: 

Gypsy would have flopped commercially but imagine the video she could have given it. Fans would have treasured it for sure.

Are these plans mapped out anywhere? It would be good to look back at the original concept given it's been some time now.

You're not wrong. Here is the video:

It was shot by Natali's husband.

Gypsy is one of the most digestible songs from the album so I’m not surprised they considered it as a single option at some point. At the time the general public was getting tired of her being weird so Do What U Want and Gypsy were probably the safest songs sonically speaking, I feel like maybe Sexxx Dreams would have been good too but the name alone was a recipe for disaster on radio.

Lol the only single-worthy songs on ARTPOP were Applause & DWUW (& maybe Sexxx Dreams)

DWUW should have never existed, maybe a solo song but it should have never replaced Venus

DWUW was selling like crazy based off of a best buy ad using a part of it. There was no way they were gonna ignore that lol. After disease I no longer assume that songs I like will do well. You just gotta see what people receive well and move on it.

My dream ARTPOP single lineup:

1. Aura (with the original verses, before the album drop)

2. Applause (before the album drop)

3. Venus (with the album drop)

4. G.U.Y.

5. Sexxx Dreams (just for fun, because it’s clearly not radio-friendly)

Find your freedom in the music

they were desperate for chart success and ended up causing confusion and that song is now basically deleted from Gaga's discography. Venus could have been ARTPOP's Judas now...

I feel like in an era with less chaos the singles would have been Applause, MANiCURE, Sexxx Dreams, and Gypsy.
