lmao not even. Steps WISH they had music which came anywhere close to sounding like Gaga's.

Nope, it's one of her best *.*

Omfg we have concrete video PROOF and some of y'all are still denying the TRUTH! Cognitive dissonance 101. Frwud would want to study y'all

 

Steps know their brand, rheir image, and know when someone's pawnin it. That's why they covered Judas - to send shayde that they recognise that song as Steps! And also because it fits their sound - they even blend it with one of their songs seemlessly!! That's how Steps-lite it is!

Yes

 

One of her worst songs, I don't know what she was thinking releasing it as a single

 

THIS

If any pop girl has a steps sounding track it’s Ariana with no tears left to cry (a song I LOVE tbh so I’m not shading her)

 

But it is very like Summer of love especially the start (the video version with the slow ethereal like starts, the choir sounding ahhhhh ahhhhh oooooh oooooh) then both songs go into being up tempo at the same time.

I don't know how to answer the poll... Yes it does sound quite Steps in its chorus (I too could see Steps doing a dance routine to it) but that doesn't make it bad. Steps have some absolute bangers. I'M CALLING POPISM!!!

It's a terrible song and one of her worst singles, steps are a million times above a song like this.

The chorus is just all out pop. I don't get how it's "STEPS LITE CHEEEESE"! :lol: :(

 

I genuinely can't hear them performing it at all?

You can hear them doing it right now x

My problem with Judas was always how that bubblegum chorus came out of nowhere. And the fact it was chosen as a single at all. Oop.

 

I think more Abba than I do Steps though. Semantics~

Thanks for actually providing receipts for once x

 

But nah. I feel 'Judas' chorus is a lot more polished and less Steps friendly than people think. Them performing it on tour was cute and so many artists do that with songs but doesn't necessarily mean the songs they blend them in with are necessarily "*insert artist here*-lite cheese"

The chorus to Judas is SO poppy, no denying that. But I feel that's what makes it stick out. Especially after the verses! (And I still can't hear Steps releasing/recording a song like this)

Absolutely - but it is all the better for it x

Ok first of all that chorus is Kylie not Steps so should be saying Kylie 80’s lite cheese if we are using that song as an example...

 

Second Judas is rubbish the chorus is nowhere near melodic or catchy enough to be like a Steps song. I love Gaga but Judas really is the blip in her career a terrible song.

Lmao it did nothing to her career :D

 

It was a top ten in both UK and US and TEOG followed and charted even better, no harm done there.

 

Judas even reached #74 in the Year End Chart and it has 81 million listens on Spotify, more than Y&I and MTN and not much less than TEOG.

 

 

 

 

Judas like many Gaga songs too may have went onto peak higher in the UK but ended up being released mid week.

 

I’m pretty sure Born This Way, Judas, The Edge Of Glory and Applause would’ve had higher peaks if they debuted on a full week despite them all being top ten hits.

2011 was when only some artists were doing on air / on sale so their chart runs would look messy compared to others and I feel like Gaga suffered because of that. I'm sure there were some other factors too but I dare not look back because it'll annoy me at what could have been regarding the success of the Born This Way singles! :lol:

Not at all!

Yes it is rubbish, but the chorus is so so cheesy it could easily be a Steps song!! I.agine the verses with cheesier dinky-fink music, like the chorus, with hammy vocals, and there ya have it

People should not be assessing the whole song, we’re only claiming the chorus is Steps-esque!
