I actually disagree with the "Judah-Juda-ah-ah" part killing the song, that isn't NEARLY as jarring as the wild screaming weird thing she does right before the "I'll bring him down, bring him down down" That part is flawless. :'(

im sry but judas is a terrible song. complete flop. there were catchy parts about it but then other parts that killed it. born this way wasnt that great either. im glad shes redeeming herself with edge of glory. i want her to do more songs like her first two album/ep.

The first time I heard this song I knew it was going to underperform. The judah-ah ah seemed SO forced to me, her accent in the verses is fucking weird, and the production is too fucking loud.

I like the juda-a-a-as part. But that's about it. This song reaks for her trying to hard to be controversial, it doesn't come off as musical art to me - it comes off as desperate. IMO it peaked too high. BTW is miles better.

I think you guys are over analyzing this song. Yeah. Let's just accept this has become the most spectacular flop of the year and move on. PS. I know she has this incredible promo line-up on her album release week, but which song do you think she is going to push? Will she insist on Judas or move on to the new song? If she goes for Judas, do you think it can rebound?

Judas is an amazing song. And this album will easily surpass previous one in musical quality. I respect personal opinions but how could u not love btw and judas? Maybe old gaga fans are still missing the songs from fame monster

Totally amused that people are citing Gaga's "early stuff" and "classic Gaga"...it's not like she has been on the scene for 20 years. The Fame came out in August 2008 and The Fame Monster came out in November 2009. There isn't any old school or new school with her yet...I think her sound is just continuing to evolve.

What I find especially funny is that half the people think this flopped because it sounds too much like "Bad Romance" and the other half because it's too much of a departure from her earlier singles. Which is it exactly? It can't be both.

I think if she hadn't used Judas as a metaphor for what she was trying to say, this would have done really well. People just freaked out and jumped to conclusions the second they heard the name of the song and the negative press.

-200! :o Leave it to Gaga to be dramatic about everything, even flopping... Why wouldn't this drop fast? It has absolutely zero backing and another single has already been sent out, along with the public against it anyways.

It has absolutely zero backing and another single has already been sent out, along with the public against it anyways. A) Songs without any backing don't always plummet this quickly, especially high profile ones. 2) As someone else pointed out, Gaga's songs don't generally fall just because she puts out the next one; they tend to overlap quite a bit. c) I was kidding, regardless. 4) It's not your job to respond to every post in this thread.

lol at people over-analyzing what "went wrong" here. Nothing in particular is to blame - this is just a weak single that didn't catch on with the public. SIMPLE AS THAT. Look at the incredibly lackluster digital sales for further proof that this isn't what the public wanted from Gaga. Radio threw it into instant rotation and when call-out scores came back negative (and it not resonating with digital consumers), they realized that they needed to pull back and that was the end of this song.
