Imagine releasing APPLAUSE when you have Gypsy and Sexxx Dreams on the album

I do think Gypsy would have fared much better against Roar

 

It's so ridiculously GP friendly

Applause was and always will be a dire dire lead single. I also HATE how it closes the album; that honour should belong to Gypsy too for the lyrical content and message it leaves in its close.

ITS A NO FROM ME BAL

ITS A NO FROM ME BAL

Hoe, what? :huh:

Guy is an actual bop tho

 

VENUS IS THAT SONG THO

best UK #115 hit in AGES

As if this was a buzz single! :lol: I still really enjoy this track even if it did take me ages to figure out what the letters stood for... :rofl:

Pretty sure it's Italian for Accelerated Chart Ratio

 

Ahead of the time. What a true queen

The single "flopped," and the general public concluded Gaga was over. Fans meanwhile, knew that the single was Gaga's manifesto for the future — a proud end to one seven year-long journey, and the beginning of a new, brave direction. Gaga stayed true to "G.U.Y.'s" statement of intent — "I don't need to be on top to know I'm worth it" — and she went on to make her jazz album, then her country album, and finally pursued her dream of acting. Gaga has now come full circle after more than 10 years in the spotlight — post-A Star Is Born, she is once again universally revered, and lauded for her polymathic achievement. Her confidence to pursue passion projects stemmed from that newfound sense of control over both her personhood and the products she sold — her story is incomplete without acknowledging that "G.U.Y." was the fire from which her phoenix flew.

 

The video stands as a testimony to the secrets only fans can know — to the sometimes gaping chasm between public perception and the personal journey of an artist. While it may sit in the hall of records as Gaga's biggest failure, to fans it remains a monument to the brilliance, resilience and vision of this pop behemoth.

 

 

YASSS SO TRUE

It really is. I'm shook x

the fans knew it was a buzz single for Chek2Chek, Joanne and A Star is Reborn

She made G.U.Y. with the next five years in mind!

 

Revisionist stan history is always fun (especially when most wanted Gypsy and Sexxx Dreams as the third single).

 

 

 

Her G.U.Y. release and eventual flop could mean anything ~

Is G.U.Y. an 'electronic' song?
