LOL. No. It happens all the time.

Well w/e. If you have nothing positive to say about Gaga why are you even in this thread? D:

It'll be good no matter what. It always is with Mother Monster.

Shaun 11-04-2011 12:32 AM

oh lawd^.

I hate Popjustice's opinion so I'll probably be disappointed by Judas a bit :p but I hope I won't.

Smithy 11-04-2011 12:39 AM

I'm trying not to big it up too much, like I did with BTW, coz in retrospect it was kinda disappointing, but it's kinda hard not too when it says stuff like this:

Quote:

What is the BPM?
Somewhere in the region of 130. Yes, you will be dancing to this song.

Is it better than 'Bad Romance'?
It's too early to say yes but it's too close to rule it out.

Does it actually sound like 'Bad Romance'?
Well, 'Judas' is to 'Bad Romance' as 'Bad Romance' was to 'Poker Face'. It's a new experience in familiar territory, like dancing in your favourite club after it's had a new soundsystem fitted. The nods to 'Bad Romance' are deliberate - Gaga told us that while sometimes it's important to push herself in new directions, as she does throughout the album, "sometimes I do count my stripes and make sure they’re all there, and 'Judas' was one of those records. I wanted it to be an evolution from where I’ve been before but in terms of the formula I wanted there to be something about 'Judas' that reminded people of what I’ve done in the past". So there's a post-chorus like the 'Bad Romance' "whoah-oah-oh" bit (here it's "whoah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh I'm in love with Ju-u-das, Ju-u-das"), there are some ra-ra post-chorus hook bits ("Juda-Judas, Juda-Judas, Juda-Judas, Juda-Gaga") and the song unfolds similarly too: post-chorus, post-chorus hook, song slams in with verse one, then pre-chorus, big explosive chorus out of nowhere, then back down to post-chorus, post-chorus hook and so on.

Is it better than 'Born This Way'?
We think it is 2.5x better than 'Born This Way'. 'Born This Way' could/should only have been the lead single from the album, and it does make more sense in the context of other album tracks, but 'Judas' is more up our street. It's a pop song that's happy being 'just' a pop song and it immediately feels more 'proper Gaga' - whatever that really means - than 'Born This Way'.

Does it sound like any songs by other notable recording artistes?
No.

Will some people dislike it?
Yes, and it is important that these people are able to accept that they are wrong. They will need your love and your respect while they come to terms with this difficult truth. Do not pity them, just offer them your help.
Other reviews :D

Spoiler:

VOGUE: “The melody sounds like it was written for the Ronettes, but it is set to a sledgehammering dance beat..."

Radio Interviews: "(It) has more of a Bruce Springsteen rock n' roll/metal sound...a very dark and in depth song, much more twisted than Born This Way...'"

Fernando Garibay: "It's great because it's a serious message, it's a little playful, but still serious..."

Rolling Stone: "(It) is a classic Lady Gaga pop banger with three huge hooks, a thumping house music breakdown and a vocal part that borrows a bit of Rihanna’s distinctive cadence. Gaga has written about falling for the wrong guy before in “LoveGame” and “Bad Romance,” but this time around she’s a bit less dark and dramatic. There’s a bubbly sweetness in her voice as she sings “I’m just a horny fool / baby it’s so cool / I’m still in love with Judas, baby.”"

the thing with Bad Romance is it had like 10 hooks - it was just brilliantly arranged, and everyone could say "oh my favourite bit is the bit where [rah rah / lavv lavv lavv / you know that I want you / whoaaaaaaaaa / etc.]"

the lyrics to Judas look...just awful. Like, they make Bieber look like Wordsworth. But then I guess the lyrics to Bad Romance would look pretty odd without a tune.

I love how someone, who doesn't even like GaGa, has to keep checking the threads for updates. :')

Loving those gifs Smithy. :love:

Shaun 11-04-2011 04:40 PM

is the album cover not the half-naked girl with the denim jacket? Or was that just a random promo.

Smithy 11-04-2011 04:46 PM

That was just a random promo pic

Callum 11-04-2011 06:57 PM

Really looking forward to the video for Judas and of course hearing the song too. I hope she portrays Mary Magdalene without offending too many Christians and Catholics though.
