IAmTheX 0 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 For me it's one of her weakest songs, the Bowie-esque way of singing the verses is amazing, the lyrics are somehow brilliant in some parts and the pre-chorus and bridge are just flawless but the chorus and production are generic af and the song is really badly produced, it has kind of a lo-fi atmosphere that ****s it up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooke Hoegan 1,018 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 + very good MV, definitely top 5 + it's really addictive and energetic + it has a great, iconic synth melody (it has really superior, palindromic construction, great idea of synth-growing / bass-declining in one bar and in the next bar the other way around, really great idea) + great prechorus and chorus + the notes Gaga is hitting during the bridge : heard never before + the best of DJWS's production + very clear and not tiring in comparison to, let's say Venus - don't like the lyrics in verses, I'm like ummm ok gags ? - don't like the sound of the synth they chose... it's too pounding imo, I would like it better if it was something between the one we got and the concept demo one, much softer it grew on me A LOT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lairofhk 931 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Yes, catchy and good, albeit rather shallow, pop song. However, the 2nd verse.... Is very awkwardly written and also just straight up pretentious, and it really just comes out of no where...pretty cringe-worthy. Other than that, it's great.

mcphee 1,790 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 It is flawless, really re-ignited my passion for Gaga's music - and saw my birth into this fandom. It's a very special song to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
