Posted February 18, 201411 yr just giving it its first spin of 2014 and it could quite possibly be her best song to date for me. it's ridiculous but that chorus is phenomenal. i hope she produces more of her own tracks in future and we get a video for this. how do you feel about this song? does it remind you of some sewage or is it 700 carot diamonds? or non of these quickly-thought up metaphorical barometers.\ seems to be her greatest marmite track to date. celebrate and discuss. opinions from michael! neither valid nor wanted
February 18, 201411 yr Terrible and overrated. Not only it's one of the worst on Artpop, but it ruins the tracklist and I've actually swapped it with Applause.
February 18, 201411 yr Will radio play Venus? http://fatmanonabike.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/falling_from_bike.jpg The 3rd single is not venus venus already had a video filmed my, why film another one? And greek themes with a romangoddess.. lol
February 18, 201411 yr YAAAAAAASSSS I want to believe it's GUY but I will be happy if it's Venus! Venus gets a lot of undeserved hate :(
February 18, 201411 yr why do so many monsters hate venus? you guys need to get your ears checked... venus slays ok :rolleyes:
February 18, 201411 yr It's good but GUY is way better, and Venus wont' be a comeback single for her, it won't change anyone's mind about Gaga or her current music.
February 18, 201411 yr It's good but GUY is way better, and Venus wont' be a comeback single for her, it won't change anyone's mind about Gaga or her current music. Venus is definitely better and less basic, but I agree on the the second half of your statement. Still, Venus would be remembered on the long run.
February 18, 201411 yr Venus is definitely better and less basic, but I agree on the the second half of your statement. Still, Venus would be remembered on the long run. Basic isn't bad, pop music is about simplifying and honing a concept till it's perfect. A lot of fans seem to use the word basic to describe her earlier songs but they're basic in a good way, and there's a reason why everyone loves them. G.U.Y. and Applause are the two most 'basic' songs on the album but they're also the best.
February 18, 201411 yr Radio will play the shiit out of Venus because of that hypnotizing chorus. And verses when she screams Venus!, that hook will grab everyone. :dance:
February 18, 201411 yr I've been a 'Venus' stan from the beginning right up until now. I remember when it first leaked, I played it about 100 times in one day, I made everyone insane and claimed it's going to be the new 'Bad Romance' et al. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ed2305b7.png I must say I don't know how everyone feels so obliged to hate it, but then again trolls are deeming ARTPOP's album tracks worse than The Fame's - then you should know people are going out of their way to be negative toward Gaga and criticize her music so harshly. 'Venus' is immensely catchy, like Garden Panty says, those 'Venus' catchphrases are phenomenally well done and stick with you right from the first listen. The song is very off-centre and obscurely produced, but that didn't tarnish Girls Aloud's 'Sexy No No No' from critical acclaim, yet this song is either loved so immensely or overly detested. I genuinely wish it was otherwise, I personally saw 'Venus' as a career highlight for Gaga and a superb choice for 2nd single, but it being such a marmite track sadly proves that mine and many other 'Venus' stans views are not universal and that it should rather be remembered as the controversially marmite promo single.
February 18, 201411 yr I love "Venus", it just will be a terrible single choice. Radio won't touch it and it'll flop on its arse!
February 18, 201411 yr Venus is easily the best song on Artpop, possibly her best song yet. It's totally unhinged and oddly catchy which is what I want from a Gaga song.
February 18, 201411 yr Being an amazing pop song sadly doesn't always equal a great single. It's too out-there, wacky and bizarre for radio to touch it. Saying that, I don't think any of the songs left will exactly smash but Gypsy and maybe G.U.Y would at least have a chance of top 40 or something.
February 18, 201411 yr Venus needs a video we need that slayage but GUY first please. The Venus stans are annoying though
February 18, 201411 yr VENUSSS I am praying for you. Keepin my fingers crossed. You are 100x the song that GUY is :cry:

February 18, 201411 yr I adore Venus. I wanted Gypsy next and end with a bang, Venus but I'm ok with GUY being the next single, it's about time she releases something close to what she described the album as "an assault to the ears and mind" because DWUW and Applause didn't quite assault my ears and mind lol
February 18, 201411 yr Mess. The first time i heard it i was horrified. It's since grown on me, then withered and now i'm back to loving it again. Perhaps the most divisive tracks she's ever done though?
