One year on after release, how do you rate the song and video for 'Perfect Illusion'? Has it grown in your affections since release?

song is still a solid 10/10, but i reckon the video is about a 7. it is above average and really works for the song but isn't quite up there with her usual minimum 9/10 standard tongue.gif

Song and vidoe both 10/10. Possibly my second fave Gaga song/single after Judas wub.gif

For me, the song is a 9, and video is a 5 sad.gif Only because I really like the bits from when it switches around 1.30 onwards, but I find the parts before that a bit awkward and boring. When the key change hits in, the video has a similarly uplifting OOMPH added too imo.

It's ok... definitely her worst lead single. The Cure was SO much better though.

This is going better than expected tbh in terms of rating the song! Unless the haters just haven't found the thread yet 👀

Jesus everyone seems to love it. I gave it a 4, really not that great and a ridiculous choice for a lead single. The Cure on the other hand is incredible and my favourite single of 2017 so far wub.gif

I don't love it, but The Cure was so dull and this is at least unique. I'm glad she did something outside the box, and hope she continues to push it as an artist, even if it does sometimes fall flat.

An easy 10/10 for the song, I explained all this in the other thread but the sheer DESPERATION in her vocals and strength of the song is something magical and along with the crazy song is enough to make this one of her classics. wub.gif

The video is an 8/10, I do really like it but it could be more listening to the song!!
