And the answer is YES!

Blade of Grass is so underrated and unfairly treated by this fanbase. After all these years of hearing Gaga sing about longing, heartbreak, and the search for real love, it feels like she’s finally found it.

"I’ve been so lonely in this field, fighting a battle with no shield." That lyric hits me every time!!! It feels like she’s looking back on all the pain she’s carried over the years, but now there’s peace and a sense of comfort she once thought she’d never have. She doesn’t have to face life alone anymore.

That’s why this song means so much to me. It gives me hope that love is still out there, no matter how long it takes. So whenever I hear another fan act negatively towards this song, it low-key irks me because of how sentimental it probably is to her. Like can we just be happy for once?! 

none of those things make the song sound good I'm not her friend or therapist

Yes I listen to The Beast -> Blade of Grass -> Die With A Smile. Sometimes I’m in the mood for that part of the album and listen to those more than Shadow of a Man if I’m honest. 

I too love that trio of slower tempo songs and they are very nice

 

In fact so far this year The Beast is my most listened to song of the year!

Nah. The album ends with The Beast for me. Maaaaybe with Happy Mistake but I've come to appreciate that as part of Harlequin rather than wishing it found a spot on Mayhem.

[calmar 22,765]

Nope, I skip it. 

[TAIPEI 3,195]

honestly nope, skips every time. but i've heard this song live at mayhem singapore, its kinda exhausting to sing i think, she sounds a bit tired and struggles, i feel like gaga's having a little bit hard time singing back at that moment but anyway she's still handled well.

the reason i dont listen the song just b'cause i'm not really care about michael polansky and i dont like ballads, i also dont like die with a smile either.

but i'm glad and thankfully because of michael so that we have mayhem <3

I almost always skip it. 

[REALITY 79,754]

When I listen to the album, yes, but it’s not one of the ones I just put on by itself

It's alright. But I made a playlist with only the upbeat MAYHEM tracks so skips BOG, DWAS, The Beast, etc.

Not often. The first half is great, but halfway through she just sounds super drunk or something and I either reset the song or move on lolol

[Monstermilo 5,430]

[TheSine 6,732]

Yeah I do. Thanks for asking.

[Lady Polonia 3,028]

Yes. It’s beautiful ballad. I love all Mayhem tracks except The Beast. 

[ManMan 3,463]

it's a mistake like Dance In The  Dark, The Dead Dance, and Lady Gaga....
