Posted October 14, 20197 yr @1183599997427666944 [screams in ARTPOP] Poor Do What U Want... if only we had additional bonus tracks added, live versions etc to make it a worthwhile re-release!? :thinking:
October 15, 20197 yr I wish she'd rewritten and re-recorded DWUW as a solo song :( (or better yet just re-did the whole album x) It's literally taken the album from 4 great songs to 3 great songs on an album full of crap. ������ Or like Bal said, added some extra bits etc.. (P.s ofc I know and understand why this is being done lol)
October 15, 20197 yr why didn’t they just add the christina aguilera version? i love do what u want. i get that it’s kinda tainted now though so i understand removing it altogether.
October 15, 20197 yr why didn’t they just add the christina aguilera version? i love do what u want. i get that it’s kinda tainted now though so i understand removing it altogether.I think he has writing credits on both versions of the song! I assume he did the chorus! :(
October 15, 20197 yr All old albums from all artists are re-released on vinyl these days, so why wouldn't Artpop?
October 15, 20197 yr Author It is totally pointless if all they're doing is taking out a song :( but I guess it has to be done. Just would've been nice to have had a proper release with demos of 'I Wanna Be With You' / live versions from the artRAVE / iTunes fest performances etc. Seems a wasted opportunity currently.
October 15, 20197 yr I think the word "re-issue" has been hyped too much. The album is basically being restocked, just with the removal of 'Do What U Want', for obvious reasons. Gaga's new studio album is presumably being released soon so it makes sense to have her back catalogue ready to purchase.
October 15, 20197 yr It’s a great shame that the song is tainted in such a way because it’s the best song on the album..
October 15, 20197 yr It’s a great shame that the song is tainted in such a way because it’s the best song on the album.. Gypsy exists x
October 16, 20197 yr Author Gaga's new studio album is presumably being released soon so it makes sense to have her back catalogue ready to purchase. This is the reality of this rerelease/reissue but it still makes me sad :(
October 16, 20197 yr I don't think it's sad.. Like Madonna, Gaga is not one of those acts who release all songs they've ever been part of. Plus gone are the days of B-sides anyways.
October 16, 20197 yr Gypsy exists x Well, that will be the best song on the new version of the album (Oh wait, we’re forgetting “Venus”)
October 16, 20197 yr Well, that will be the best song on the new version of the album (Oh wait, we’re forgetting “Venus”)We're absolutely NOT forgetting Venus. There's a reason why it wasn't mentioned. :puke:
