It's one of my favorites song from the album. I guess USA wasn't ready for it.

The religious theme really hurt the song. Gaga got away with it when she played with religion on 'Alejandro' video, I guess this song was too much for the general listeners. My country actually banned this song from being spun on radio lol.

"Judas" really isn't that offensive. :(

^It's not- and the chorus is pretty catchy. Sometimes tracks just don't click- nothing more, nothing less. Anyone else hear Nelly Furtado (or maybe I'm thinking of someone else) in the verses? As I am sometimes, I may be late to that discussion.

As I am sometimes, I may be late to that discussion. Maybe Maneater in the verses? (another undeserved radio flop :'() The public really doesn't like this. When she performs BTW and TEOG, they immediately go up on iTunes, but when she performs Judas, nothing really happens :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

It makes me sad how this song didn't catch on because it's classic Gaga... if it would have been "Brutus" instead of "Judas" this song would have been a huge hit.

I think she would have been best off not using a proper name at all. There have been so few hits over the years using proper names. It just makes them less relatable.

I wish Schiebe was released instead of Judas. Instead of being a BR copycat, Schiebe is more unexpected and exciting in the vien of BR/PF. In my opinion, that song is the "next step" of the Gaga/RedOne path, not "Judas".

Exactly, the beat kills and the lyrics aren't even that offensive. It's just the idea of being in love with a historical figure, especially one who betrayed the man that over 2 billion people believe to be the son of God...

The funny thing is.. I was hearing Judas still quite a bit last week in Portland, and I'm back home in Alaska on vacation and I'm hearing it a lot here too. Lol. Weird.

I don't think the public or radio hates "Judas". It wasn't released at the right time. But I love it and I'm glad it got a video and promotion. Still my favorite song from this era!

Judas has become one of my favorite Gaga songs.
However I'm glad that it flopped as it seems her attention whore way has seemed to die out a bit.
