GGD is buckling under the APPLAUSE.

This slays so much harder than any BTW single.

After first listening... wait, what? That's all?

 

More than two years ago, when I first heard "Born This Way", I didn't like it AT LL. (not because of the "Express Yourself" controversy, which is, in my opinion, a storm in a teacup) I was hugely disappointed, especially after absolutely brilliant "The Fame Monster", but it started to grow on me and now I think it's a very good, if not great pop song. And when it comes to the album, I really, and I mean REALLY, trully appreciated the entire BTW album just a few months ago, although some of the songs already were masterpieces in my eyes ("Heavy Metal Lover" (!!!), "Scheiße", "Marry the Night", "Government Hooker", "You and I").

 

So, back to "Applause", it's as different as possible than I expected. First of all, it's VERY radio friendly and because of that there's nothing crazy, weird and experimental here, there's no darkness. (which was very present on many BTW songs) I would even say there's nothing original in "Applause", but not "Oh, it's a rip off of [put the title here]!", but more like "That song doesn't try to break any rules, or creating something really NEW".

 

So is it disappointing? A little bit, yeah, but let's face it, it's IMPOSSIBLE to live up to the hype. At this moment I forget about everything, about the long anticipation and all the expectations. What's left? The MUSIC and, what's most important, it's still Gaga I love. I can't even describe how ****ing catchy "Applause" is, how many great hooks it has and how energetic that beat is.

 

I LOVE it.
