April 8, 20196 yr Author X-P_8rtRXhs 18. Out of Time // 6.00 First out, unsurprisingly, we have an instrumental that comes at one of the most pivotel moments of the film. As Aly desperately tries to seek Jackson as he performs to a sell-out audience, the instrumental intensifies. It's an exciting piece of music and the perfect soundscape to an intense moment of uncertainty. Bradley leading the guitar throughout is impressive, and despite its toe-tapping crescendos, it's clear why this hasn't garnered huge support here.
April 9, 20196 yr Yea not surprised that this came out as last, pretty high score for the worst song, however :D
April 9, 20196 yr Author 0dR5yIHZs-w 17. Alibi // 6.30 We lose another solo Bradley song next, this time 'Alibi'. The song is a personal one for Jackson in the film, referring to his dying father and his history of running away from love and life. It features Bradley's raspy vocals on top of his electrifying guitar melodies. It's fairly nondescript and forgettable in the context of the film as a whole and didn't really leave much of a dent on listeners here.

April 10, 20196 yr Author *contains A Star is Born plot spoilers - do not read if you want to avoid spoilers* PnR6wkJwGYs 16. Too Far Gone // 6.47 Well as predicted, it is another Bradley solo song out next. The song is a laid-back earthy song about travel, the open road and being set free. It's quintessential Jackson, but grows in meaning as the film progresses because it is in fact Ally that is the one that could set him free. Very short, under 1.5 minutes, the song seems like it could continue going but ironically, a song about going on and on, is cut brutally short... Does this have anything to do with Jackson's own desires to be free being cut short in harrowing fashion as the film draws to a close? Rewatching the film gives this song a ghostly, unnerving feel of what could have been.
April 14, 20196 yr Author DqlUt0Ff70Q 15. Black Eyes // 6.54 Yet another Bradley exclusive out next. The song is the first bit of music we get and offers an explosive, electrifying start to the movie. Bradley is charismatic and energetic and shows off his guitar skills and control of the crowd. This is later coupled with his attempt of hiding himself from the fame, loud noises and manic energy of the stage. It's the perfect opening to the film as it shows Jackson off perfectly in all his elements.
April 14, 20196 yr Author u93gJXcSyEs 14. La Vie En Rose // 7.5 The first Gaga song to be out is the first time we see her perform in the film - it managed to get a much greater score than the one that came before it, as we already enter 7s category. Starring at a drag night in a dingy club, Ally emerges from backstage, sings the sultry, alluring performance, catches the eye of Jackson and well... the rest is history. The performance is a fascinating, captivating one and really shows off the vocals that would soon ascend little, unknown Ally into super-stardom. Interestingly, Gaga herself performed 'La Vie en Rose' during her Cheek to Cheek Tour with Tony Bennett in 2015.
April 16, 20196 yr Author 01nGbIaT4Wk 13. Hair Body Face // 7.62 Solo Gaga again, this time very much popstar Ally with a hint of The Fame Gaga. As she battles with the fame that is about to take over her and her desire to remain true to her musical routes, Ally still manages to deliver knockout pop numbers, no less through this. It's vintage Gaga with all the character and personality we have grown to love from her. Quirky and sassy, its the dream team of DJ White Shadow and Gaga letting go and enjoying themselves whole-heartedly.
April 17, 20196 yr Black Eyes and Maybe It's Time are the two main losses for me so far! Hearing Bradley sing for the first time at the very start of the film was a moment.
April 17, 20196 yr Author Black Eyes and Maybe It's Time are the two main losses for me so far! Hearing Bradley sing for the first time at the very start of the film was a moment. Maybe It's Time is still in the running! :o
April 17, 20196 yr I totally missed this rate, but Hair, Body, Face should be much higher. That chorus absolutely slaps. It's the best of the pop songs for me. Why Did You Do That should be out already. Also, I hope Diggin' My Grave does well. It feels so underrated to me. It's in my top 5.
April 18, 20196 yr Maybe It's Time is still in the running! :oOh good. I completely misread :lol: I agree with Paul, would've liked to see Why Did You Do That out before Hair Body Face.
April 18, 20196 yr Author OFBP7-3yun4 12. Before I Cry // 7.67 Next up, it's the only song on the soundtrack to not actually feature in the film! It may have been a song recorded for the film whose scene got cut in editing... but i'm not sure why. Before I Cry is a heartbreaking, stunning ballad about the power of love and loss. It may have lost a few points here because of it's omission from the film, but really it deserved better!
