Arcanum 5,205 Posted Friday at 11:41 AM Share Posted Friday at 11:41 AM Y' all keep forgetting that Disease came right after the mess of the Joker era. It was a nice bouncing back after just a short period of constant bombing. Poor sister didn't have a chance. If Joker was successful this jewel of a song would smash hard.

TEANUS 16,036 Posted Friday at 11:55 AM Share Posted Friday at 11:55 AM I think sometimes there’s an underestimation on how much control Gaga has. Disease and Abracadabra were far from “typical” or “traditional” choices for a label to make as pop radio singles. If they were really pushing hard strategically in any way we probably would’ve gotten Garden of Eden as lead, Vanish as second single, or something similar I really think Gaga has some wicked creative freedom with Interscope, we’ve only really heard otherwise during ARTPOP and even she came out on top of that fight with reclaiming it post-Troy and finishing the tour strong British social ladies with upturned pinkies, glasses clinking // xoxoTEANUS 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackweller 466 Posted Friday at 12:00 PM Share Posted Friday at 12:00 PM Can’t say I disagree. I said it before and I’ll say it again. I think that the era should’ve kicked off in Feb with Abracadabra. Not only Disease wasn’t the best choice for the lead single but it was also released at the same time as Joker and Harlequin and was DOA. I get that they might’ve done it as damage control because of how hard Joker flopped but it didn’t really do anything and the first single deserved its own moment. I’m not saying Disease is a bad song but not necessarily a single material let alone lead single. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieceofphil 0 Posted Friday at 12:08 PM Share Posted Friday at 12:08 PM (edited) Funny thing is for a mere pop album, the singles chosen would have been quite fitting. But as the album was way more mature and partly rather indie, I see the discrepancy in what fans expected from this era and what we got when it comes to singles and MVs. Gaga wanted to maintain her status as mainstream artist and just sprinkle her other ventures here and there with collabs and the tour. I get that, mainstream is where the money is at. Also don't forget that both Disease (I want your disease) and Abracadabra (Ab Ra Ab Ra Cadabraaa) where major reminiscing songs tying this era to Bad Romance and Fame Monster.
