"All the songs were designed to be radio-friendly" 

 

[Bambino 23,630]

Second single plz

[Let Love Down 48]

applause isn't the lead single?

[Dayman 5,903]

It's for the best. A song with a title such as "Sex Dreams" may be a little too controversial for radio. Remember GaGa has young fans too and if it's on the radio kids might sing it. I wouldn't feel comfortable knowing that somewhere out there there are little children singing about Sex. Applause is a great clean family friendly song, hence it is radio appropriate.

i really wanted Sex Dreams to be a lead.

[Elizabeth 450]

Ehhhh I think it would've been fine tbh. California Gurls talked 'gin and juice', 's-x on the beach', and 'we freak in the jeep' and got no backlash for the lyrics lol and Katy's seen as more kid friendly than Gaga

[Lady 748]

So, the second single... :)

[Catalystluna56 2]

Lol, we're just monsters now, no more little. ;D

 

And I want to hear Sex Dreams!!
