Haha, reading through the thread up to the release of this on iTunes, so funny.
The high quality is SOO f**king different from the samples and sounds absolutely amazing if I do say so. The music during the verses.. and whole thing blows my mind, basically. LOL. This is so GaGa.
Damn, that bridge breakdown is so awesome.

I don't hear Bad Romance at all when I listen this. I'm not getting the comparisons, tbh.

I don't hear Bad Romance at all when I listen this. I'm not getting the comparisons, tbh. The downbeat of the chorus is similar but barely. Also the "Ga-Ga" tackons. But otherwise, there's really no similarity. People take the words "her next Bad Romance" too literally and try too hard to find similarities

I hear TONS of "Bad Romance" elements in this. Same, it's pretty obvious she's nodding to BR with this but I actually think this may be hotter than BR. It's just so infectious and the melody is just... :'( I haven't been in love with a Gaga single in awhile but this did it for me. :'(

Just bought this off iTunes, and it sounds much better than the crap I downloaded earlier today. I love it even more now.

So glad she is back. Im just going to ignore Born This Way ever happened and then Judas matches up properly with her previous lead singles.

I think I prefer the main part of the chorus on this to Bad Romance. I always found the "I want your love aaaaand" bit to be a bit awkward.

I seriously cannot understand what she is singing in the verses. Anyone have the lyrics typed out? Ped posted this earlier today: When he comes to me, I am ready I’ll wash his feet with my hair if he needs Forgive him when his tongue lies through his brain Even after three times, he betrays me I’ll bring him down, bring him downtown A king with no crown, a king with no crown I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel But I’m still in love with Judas, baby I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel But I’m still in love with Judas, baby Oh, oh, ohhhh, oh I’m in love with Judas, Judas Oh, oh, ohhhh, oh I’m in love with Judas, Judas JU-DAS-JUDA, JU-DAS-JUDA, JU-DAS-JUDAS JU-DAS-GAGA I couldn’t love a man so purely Even darkness forgave his crooked way And I’ve learned our love is like a brick Build a house or sink a dead body I’ll bring him down, bring him downtown A king with no crown, a king with no crown ‘I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel But I’m still in love with Judas, baby ‘I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel But I’m still in love with Judas, baby Oh, oh, ohhhh, oh I’m in love with Judas, Judas Oh, oh, ohhhh, oh I’m in love with Judas, Judas JU-DAS-JUDA, JU-DAS-JUDA, JU-DAS-GAGA In the most Biblical sense, I am beyond repentance Fame hooker, prostitute wench, vomits her mind But in the cultural sense I just speak in future tense Judas kiss me if offenced, or wear an ear condom next time I wanna love you, but something’s pulling me away from you Jesus is my virtue, Judas is the demon I cling to - I cling to I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel But I’m still in love with Judas, baby I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel But I’m still in love with Judas, baby Oh, oh, ohhhh, oh I’m in love with Judas, Judas Oh, oh, ohhhh, oh I’m in love with Judas, Judas JU-DAS-JUDA, JU-DAS-JUDA, JU-DAS-GAGA

I’ve learned love is like a brick you can Build a house or sink a dead body I’ll bring him down, bring him downtown A king with no crown, king with no crown My fave part of the lyrics. Anyways, sad this leaked a bit early, but wow @ it being #1 on iTunes already. It's gonna have to sell alot for a shot at #1 H100 though. (450k +)

Right. Burned this on a CD for some reason or another for my car.
It was so much better. Like, I know songs always sound better with loud bass, but this was made to be played loud on a proper sound system. It's massive, I loved it, etc. Still can't really listen on my laptop excessively though, but I could replay it forever in my car.

I cannot @ the no-avatar-nobodies throwing shade at this song a few pages back. So pressed cause GaGa gonna slay their fave? I pray to GodGa in the name of ur fave that she will let them maintain some shred of relevancy. Amen. Imo this is one of her top three songs, it's on par with Paparazzi but just slightly above it. Poker Face and Bad Romance are still above this for me, but not gonna lie this is def. one of if not my fave single by hers based on immediate feelings from it tbqh.

It has half of today, tomorrow and sunday to sell around 410k+, that's if Rihanna and Britney sell 300k like Billboard predicted, which is likely because those are their predictions for the remix, so even if the remix sells 200k, I'm guessing the actual track will sell around 100k plus the 130 points she has in airplay. It'll be really tough to beat her. BTW sold 400k with 3 days and major hype. I see a top 5 debut with a jump to #1 (or top 2?) next week.

^ I would think so too. I feel its not so much about only the 2 days factor, but the fact that theres a very love hate thing going on w/ this song. Yes, more seem to like a bit more than BTW, but I think she lost momentum from BTW and this song just isnt that universally hot and instant. Seems just the loons and some casual fans she lost may be feeling this (which is still a very big #), but I dont think its enough to sell bucketloads for a #1 debut next week.

I don't see a #1 debut, mainly because it was released so spontaneously. Maybe next week :) I agree. I see Top5 debut (hopefully #3), and then maybe #1 next week. Katy performing on Idol will hurt its chance. I definitely see at least #2 in its second week.

I love this song.
I think the only part that reminds me of Bad Romance is the "Juda-ah-ah-as" part.
On a side note, my neighbor and I just got a noise complaint from management, saying that we were having a "disturbing party".
We were playing "Judas" on loop.

The fact that Billboard is even considering this for a #1 debut is amazing. I mean, think about it. This song was released today without anyone having any idea. Only GaGa could accomplish something like that...
