I wish mayhem wasn’t just so pop, because abracadabra could have been sooooo much better with a crazier production and a different chorus 

Eh?

Girl, most of Gaga’s discog is cheesy lmao. We can’t be acting like a song that’s 30% her speaking “German” gibberish isn’t cheesy/campy 🪦

Cheesy? 😟

I mean, yeah. Gaga intentionally leans into camp, absurdity, and bombast pretty consistently. Scheisse literally opens with her saying “I don’t speak German, but I can if you’d like,” and then proceeding to deliver a hook that’s almost entirely fake German as a metaphor for bullshitting your way into strength. It’s clever, it is sincere, but it’s also goofy as hell which is part of why I think it’s so fun.

I would put that list in the opposite order for myself, However!, CSTH is such a good song and I don't understand why it's not getting more love. The guitars, rock vibe and production are fantastic. Great verses and a solid chorus. Way better that TDD IMO.

I'd have to go with Scheiße over Abra.

I'd explain, but I'm tired .

Difficult but I find the simple creativity of Scheiße so beguiling even if I think technically Abra might be better done. Scheiße just has this comedy about it that is so unique and makes it shine. Pure camp and silliness without slapping its knee and also conviction. Abra definitely evolves this and refines it to something in the same realm but I think Scheiße scratches a specific type of itch that works for me. But I totally see how and why someone would choose Abra

Also SHE thinks it’s funny, too

I looooooove Sheisse but I have to admit that the live mix CLEARS the studio version

For that reason, I have to go with Abra. The production is so full and clean it warms my cold little heart

GGD the taste you have.

Abracadabra wins it by a small margin, they’re both great dance songs but Abracadabra being more contemporary and a better composition gives it an edge for me.

switch Scheiße and Abracadabra and then we can talk

Abra is Gaga's best song. Periodt. She clears.
