Lady Gaga - G.U.Y.

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Has an overcooked hot mess ever been shot SO NICELY with such a large BUDGET?

Literally, LIT ER ALLY a song about being fucked up the arse being floated as the third official single from a rapidly tanking album WHO thought this was a good idea



The video is actually TOO MUCH. Too many ideas, too many segments, too much budget. The money pumped into THAT (fabulous) mess probably could have cured HUNGER in a small famine-stricken country for a few weeks.

Let us not forget the MINECRAFT collab and a Kim Richards cameo too, because frankly WHY NOT!

Was there even a third single worth RELEASING on ARTPOP..?

GYPSY!

 

[RJN]

With G.U.Y., I love the middle 8, but the rest? meh

 

[POP!]

The video is better than the song. "Gypsy" probably would have been my ideal third single. "Fashion", "ARTPOP", "Sexxx Dreams" after that. This would be quite far down the list.

 

[COB]

GYPSY!

Plus about five other songs!

 

[RJN]

Plus about five other songs!

I don't know. There's a lot of other songs I love on it (especially Aura, Venus, and Manicure) but would they be hits?

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I wanna be that G U Y @AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Imagine the MESS if Aura had been an official SINGLE The (official) lyric video alone is too much



Do you wanna touch me, cosmic lover?
Do you wanna peek underneath the cover?
Do you wanna see the girl who lives behind the aura?
Behind the aura, behind the curtain, behind the burqa

 

[Cerro de Casa]

The worst

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Was there even a third single worth RELEASING on ARTPOP..?

Sexxx dreams

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Especially if it was the rumoured duet with Rihanna

 

[AlgoAlex]

Oh no this was one of my faves on album !

 

[lolly]

Oh no this was one of my faves on album !

And mine

SEVEN

 

[Music]

Wait, how am I the only 10…

 

[RS]

Wait, how am I the only 10…

Not anymore.

This is one of her best singles.

 

[Iguana]

It's a 7 (just)

 

[Iguana]

Justice 4 Venus. Now that song deserved a ridiculous video!

 

[RS]

Venus and Aura both deserved to be singles and have videos.

 

[RS]

And remixes.

 

[Sheena]

Still an absolute BOP

But yea, Gypsy and Venus were far better proper singles in the waiting.

 

[Dark Carnival]

The chorus really ruins a potentially good song. Also the… acronyms

6/10

 

[Dark Carnival]

Aura, on the other hand, still slaps

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I wanna be that
G

G A Y? No there’s an even better (trash) song for that:

 

[jivafox]

Worth it for Queen Vanderpump

 

[Halli]

I remember her phoning in to Scott Mills to promote this SINGAL, he was really trying to big it up as you would, but it just all seemed DEAD and OVER and UNCOOL at that point

Gypsy was definitely single worthy thats the sort of song she could re-release as a hidden gem

 

[Beverley]

Truly magnificent

 

[K.C.]

Venus absolutely should've been a single. It's such a noisy old racket, it would've been the APEX of the Artpop EPOCH

 

[Pipo]

The ARTPOP album is one of the best things this bitch has ever done. Kooky, insane, nonsense GAGA hot shit and its peak! It's the album I come back the most

Dope is still fucking shit mind, and I've learned to appreciate Jewels'n'Drugs for what it is.

 

[OutSynk]

Justice 4 Venus. Now that song deserved a ridiculous video!

Venus was truly a Gaga parody so yes.

 

[Jark]

what a horribly underbaked song and dreadfully misjudged single this was.

GYPSY and ARTPOP were RIGHT THERE.

 

[Loufoque]

Like the entire album, an utter triumph. ARTPOP is her greatest album.

 

[Loufoque]

Although nothing can compare to the toweringly insane highs of Venus. I remember listening to it for the first time, mouth wide open, wondering what the hell was going on, thinking "she can't be serious", and then vigorously shaking and crying once the choruses just kept. on. coming. Compared to Venus, G.U.Y. is very felt cute, might bottom later. But it's still a 10.

 

[Loufoque]

This has put me in the mind to play the entire album to get the full ARTPOP experience.

I'm twenty seconds in and I need the proctologist.

 

[Loufoque]

To think Katy was putting out shit like Birthday at the same time as Gags was giving us AURA! Straights and basic gays really are the worst. Don't get me wrong, Katy is cute for a throwback, but they were just NOT on the same planet.

 

[Loufoque]

And that video is glorious. The Artpop sequence at the start is magnificent. I think my favourite ever Gaga moment is where she drags herself up and pulls the arrow out of her chest. Iconic Aries energy.

Well sorry for enjoying fun pop music?

 

[Loufoque]

Apology accepted babe

 

[Pipo]

I do love a @Loufoque 5-posts-in-a-row CAMEO praising Gaga every time!
