I am a big fan of this song. I really wish it had been a single and/or at least had a video. I love the dark almost industrial sounding production. It reminds me of the work of the Eurythmics.

This was my favorite song from the album back when it came out. I always wanted it to be a single. It was rumored that this was the label's choice for the 3rd single, but Gaga fought for "Alejandro" instead. Honestly, any song from The Fame Monster could have been a single at the time except for "Teeth."

I wasn't really here for this. It sounds like a cheap euro-techno creation from the 80s, it's kind of a wreck. That spoken word part isn't good as well.

Definitely should have been a single.

This was essentially the prototype for BTW but this was so much better to me.

The whole of the song kinda sucks but that bridge was f**king dope. The instrumental fading into this over the top vocal affection, unnecessarily processedโalmost like a perverted battle cryโwent above and beyond, but it worked. Agreed that it was the beta for BTW, and, to me, the best moments came from a similar place ('Heavy Metal Lover', 'Scheiรe', 'Government Hooker').

I played this heavily for two years straight from the moment it leaked. Is it a little dated now? Yeah, so what. It still perfectly embodies everything that's so great about Lady Gaga.
Listening now, this track is another reminder of how great The Fame Monster is.

This and Monster were such huge fan favorites when the album came out but I was never a huge fan of either. Definitely good tracks, but I never got the urge to listen to either of them. Maybe Monster a little bit more but DITD was probably my least favorite song on the album. Speechless and So Happy I Can Die were my favorite non-singles (and Teeth to a certain extent).

I was so pissed when "Alejandro" was a single over this. Not that "Alejandro" is bad, mind you, but "Dance In The Dark" is soooo much better. Easily my third favorite from The Fame Monster after the flawless "Bad Romance" and still-addictive "Telephone."

So overrated. It was never one I sought out.

I always wish this one got to be a full on single release with a video, it's still so good I also loved her peformance of it with Telephone from the 2010 BRITS It's also nice that she included this in the setlist for Enigma

I love Dance In The Dark! It definitely was the follow-up to Alejandro as a single here. It was presented as such on the TV channel broadcasting the weekly French digital sales chart and I recall hearing it once or twice on the radio.

I live for the intro and the verses but the chorus has this weird vocal effect I still canโt get over.
