I don't think this song is going to have any problem at all. Like a poster above mentioned, its just going to take a while for the general public to warm up to it. I dunno...this song has burned on me so quickly I can't listen to it anymore (and it's only been two freakin weeks!) - and #24 on I-Tunes after two weeks is pretty bad...

This song sucks. I'm sorry to say. BTW is way better than this.

I think it's a little early to be writing this era/the rest of her career off. She's coming off her longest-running #1 hit yet. A few bad updates doesn't mean she should pack it in.
I think we should wait to see if the video has an effect.

I just saw the extended commercial. Is anyone else getting Telephone vibes? I mean, I don't think it's going to be THAT dark/controversial. If anything, it's looking quite campy from all the stills/clips. Lol. Leave it to GaGa to give a campy song like Telephone a dark video and dark song like Judas a campy video.

I don't recall Telephone having all that dark of a video.

Someone on Twitter mentioned all of her videos since BR have had country themes. Bad Romance- Russia, Telephone- America, Alejandro- Germany, Born This Way-Space (not really a country but whatever ) and apparently Judas is Israel.

Hm...Judas looks kind of western though so I'm not sure about Israel but we shall see tomorrow!

"Alejandro" is the only video of hers that I consider to be very dark. "Born This Way," "Telephone," "Bad Romance" and "Paparazzi" all have some slightly creepy elements that people might consider a bit dark but those were really more campy and satirical than anything else.

I think all of the videos are equally dark. I think because most of Alejandro is in b&w it gives the illusion of being darker than the other aforementioned but they're all dark videos with deaths occuring in the plots (except BTW).

"Alejandro" is much darker than the other four I mentioned and it's not just the black & white. It's the heavy, militant vibe, funeral imagery, severe hairstyles, etc. The others may have had bits and pieces of imagery that are slightly disconcerting but they are decidedly more playful in mood with plenty of campy moments.

Those stills look awesome. I was worried that the video would be dark, religious and too over the top, but I think from these stills it will be quite fun. She's described it as 'motorcycles + death,' so I'm interested to see what the death element is. I kinda hope it's metaphorically - I mean, I don't want everyone bursting into flames and Gaga going into a Manifesto of Death etc. Very excited though. I think I'll be able to be on for the premiere, too.

I'd say Alejandro AND Born This Way are both really dark. I don't find Paparazzi and Bad Romance dark at all.

OMG it gives me a lot of Telephone vibe, which is my favourite Gaga video!

You just had to bring her up.. Didn't you? lol Anyway.. I love "Judas" and I seriously did not expect it to under-perform like this.. I thought it would be top 10 by now on POP but oh well... The video might change this or might not.
