Born To Slay

It was the 2nd biggest hit of the era, how much bigger should it have been?

I can't with all this shade at TEOG video.

The song had an overall feel and aesthetic to it. One that needed the type of video it had.

That song, and most of the album/era had a VERY strong 80's, NYC, Springsteen vibe to it. The video represented it beautifully.

 A video full of graphics, special effects and a mermaid(?) would have just conflicted with the song itself imo. 

Not my favorite video of hers, but I do love love love.

Just Gaga, NYC, and Versace.   :whitney:

 

 

Just another failure that Gaga tried to pass off as planned. I would have preferred the original idea. Then she tried to compensate with You & I and it didn't fit the song at all.

And this is precisely the reason why the next single will slay because it seems she has everything planned properly. Let's hope things go according to plan.

I agree. When I heard this first it sounded like a 4 million+ selling smash to me. But the terrible video and Born This Way + Judas alienated many people

I think it was pretty big as far as I remember.

With a beautiful video coming out as soon as the single got picked, it would have done even better ....

I honestly think because of the video...

 

Even tho the video is beautiful, its just too simple for a Gaga video and that's really it...

I'm not sure i agree with OP's sentiments, personally i never liked the song and only listened to it a few times it was on the radio. For some reason the song annoyed me and i don't think it was as GP friendly as some of you thought it was.

The video.

I seriously couldn't sit all the way through it, not even once.

It is just so boring.

The video. If that flawless song got the video it deserved, teog could've been bigger than BR.

 

This :giveup:

 

Even tho I like the video, it's just not what people expected.

I guess the next thread should be "Why wasn't Bad Romance a bigger hit?". Since it "only" went to number two and all. :roll:
