Bt1 5,213 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 the last song on BTW Ball was MTN But TEOG was part of the encore, I would even say the highlight. From a time MTN wasnt even sang in full. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariano 958 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Applause was chosen by Jimmy Iovine, not Troy, and Jimmy was 100% right about what needed to be the first single. Well idc who chose it, it's not Gaga and the method was absolutely WRONG. Just because Applause happened to be the most successful one (Mediocre anyway) doesn't mean it was right. And half of ARTPOP would've performed just the same if released as lead single Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEANUS 14,941 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 You know, I don't even think G.U.Y., the song itself, is the problem. Or even radios, they can't be completely blamed. The promo schedule for G.U.Y. was risky, somebody on her team (Bobby maybe?) said G.U.Y.'s promo schedule and early music video was risky. So Interscope can't be blamed either. The risk just didn't pay off. I'm completely acceptant of G.U.Y.'s performance and still love the song. These our the kind of under performances that are good actually. Barely anyone knows G.U.Y. exists tbh. People knew about Marry The Night but just weren't into it. It's likes Rihanna's Wait Your Turn. Nobody remembers it because it wasn't given a fighting chance, like G.U.Y.! Gypsy, I feel can still be a great success worldwide, even in Australia, yes Australia. It's the kind of song people eat up. It's catchy, anthemic, and really easy to get into. And it has a slight generic Katy Perry-Disney vibe. People will love it. I just hope Interscope gives it a fighting chance.

MonsterMum 2,532 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Venus would have tanked just a hard as G.U.Y. It's a fan fave and will remain that way but for mainstream and radio "too gay" and messy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bye 3,947 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Well i don't care I just replied to your comment indicating that Venus ARTPOP and JnD are Gaga's favourites while Gypsy isn't. When even if she didn't mentioned it, it's obviously one of her favourites. Why else would she perform it everywhere ? Why else would she use it to close her shows with it ? Let's end this arugment here I'm gonna end the argument with this: you're still extrapolating evidence such as playing it at the end as meaning it's her favourite. Have you ever thought she might perform it a lot because it got great response and is a fan favourite? The truth is you can't know unless she states it.

I said she is performing the song because It's Important. How in holly hell do you think a song about garden panties would be more special to Gaga than a song about Talyor, Her Fans and Touring ? And you didn't gave me any receipts of Gaga saying ARTPOP, Venus and JnD being her favourite songs. I've only seen her say it for ARTPOP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birthday Boy 3 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 It was chosen by Troy. The method of choosing: Well all songs were good so I chose the last one. I like both songs too, I am just not delusional. My ultimate fave songs from BTW: Heavy Meatal Lover, Bloody Mary and Electric Chapel, yet I never cried for these to be singles because I am not stupid. I always wanted Hair to be the last single considering it actually was single worthy. Venus is one of the few 10s on ARTPOP just like Gypsy. Gypsy just happens to be more single worthy.. Venus wasmore single worthy since it was chosen as the second single and Venus wouldn't have flopped more than DWUW rather with a video it would've the era alive till January and by that time gaga should've had released the third single Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBEY 57,109 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 DWUW had so much potential I remember people from my class listening to it and I was like wtf (I study in the Netherlands) and I was listening one time to it and a girl said "Is that Lady Gaga ? I heard that song it's really nice" and then they ****ed up the video ... All it needed was the ****ing video. I can say it's the only masterpiece on ARTPOP apart from Gypsy. i know right one of the biggest errors tbh at least DWUW smashed in canada it peaked at #3. with the video it would have been a #1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birthday Boy 3 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 BS. So tell me why dwuw tanked? While singles like unconditionally still had more longevity on iTunes? Videos are most important for an era and I personally think she was going the right direction by planning the ARTPOP trilogy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Videos are most important for an era and I personally think she was going the right direction by planning the ARTPOP trilogy A song with a video and low airplay is worse than a song with a lot of airplay and no video. Of course DWUW would've performed a lot better with a video, but that in no way means Venus would've performed better than DWUW.. The fact that DWUW underperformed is an evidence that almost anything else on ARTPOP would've flopped considering how Fresh and different DWUW was for Gaga and at the same time it was radio friendly. Venus would just turn so many people off. . . special does not mean favourite you've constantly been twisting words By saying other songs were Gaga's favourites you indicated that Gypsy was less important. I never said Gypsy was Gaga's favourite. I said it was CLEARLY one of the most Important ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
