I played this song for my mother who lost her husband to alcoholism. She couldn't last a minute in and had to take off the headphones.

 

The song is more powerful than you think; if you don't know addiction, you're not going to get it.

However most of us only watched this performance and didn't bother to watch the rest of the irrelevant awards show.  :sweat:

That show was a joke, I wish she didn't perfom such an amazing song there.

 

This.

 

The show deserved a song like Harlem Shake

The performance didn't fit the venue (venue's fault if you ask me, that show was AWFUL), but I think Dope is her new go-to song when she doesn't really want to perform. It's the new Speechless.

 

But anyway I think her goal was to get people interested in that song long enough to buy it when it was on iTunes that night/the next day, in turn leading to more preorders of the album. That's the point of a promo single, isn't it?

 

I'd say it did what it needed to do and not a drop more. That show was so floppy anyway, I don't think anybody's worried about this.

Gaga's always talking about wanting to make people dance and have a good time, but at this award show she busts out a tearful ballad? Like, I get that ballad is personal, but those people were NOT there for that.
