Inspired by Jase:

Shallow.

The song I thought wasn't a hit when I first ever listened to it. It's honestly one of my most amusing and memorable Gaga fan memories simply because of what the song went onto do.. laugh.gif


Do you remember how you perceived Shallow when it came out and what are your thoughts now?

Some of my early posts about it:

QUOTE
LOVE THIS TOO MUCH EVEN WITHOUT SEEING THE FILM

THE LAST MINUTE!!

I’m off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I’ll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface, where they can’t hurt us
We’re far from the shallow now

<3
and

I also think that there might be another song that outperforms Shallow eventually.

I need to dig out my initial posts later this evening. I think it was love at first listen but I can't remember Gaga.png

I obviously adore the song still and I think lots of people have so deep emotional connection to the song... that alone makes it stay on Spotify top 200 every day, no matter how much new music is out there (excl. Christmas flood of course)

Not to mention the already evergreen Oscar performance... This really is a song where everything and everything around it just clicked!!

It still sounds incredible and I love it dearly BUT...it probably wouldn't make my top 10 fave Gaga song list ohmy.gif

Yes, this is the funny thing - I think this song is above what Gaga usually is and represents. It's her song but somehow also larger than Gaga.. It's hard to explain I think.

It's farrrr from my favourite from her but my GOSH it has impacted me so hard over the course of the film+soundtrack's release. It's a song (much like the whole soundtrack) that I associate with the love of my life - we SCREAM the song together whenever we hear it and we have so many memories attached to it! heart.gif

What a BEAUTIFUL MOMENT OF LIFE this song is.

QUOTE(HausofTove @ Oct 1 2018, 06:52 PM) *
It all depends on the success of the movie really. The soundtrack could have life in it but it's too hard to predict atm. Either way, the critical praise is overwhelming right now so commercial success or not, she still did THAT against the odds.
