LOL outside of Shallow, I have never heard a Gaga ballad I didn't like. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes. That's what has always astonished me about Gaga in particular. She has delivered so many lousy ballads, I mean... never mind failing to deliver that one extraordinary ballad (think IWALY), her ballads are more often than not just not up to par. They range from decent at best ("Million Reasons") to horrible ("Yoü and I"). Girl plea. I suggest you listen to the classics "Shallow," "Always Remember Us This Way" and "I'll Never Love Again" and the power ballad "Hold My Hand" before posting about Gaga ballads. but those are all lousy. My opinion, of course. She always uses those theatrical dope vocals and people think she has such a powerful range. But to me its so jarring. We'll see tho, maybe she'll sound sweet and pure and leaves the belting behind.

Surprising how huge Shallow was and is, I never loved it, but the others mentioned I enjoy a lot.
Hold My Hand lyrics were kinda weak, but still a pretty vocal delivery.

Yeah, Shallow is a great song, the overplay really killed it for me. Always Remember Us This Way is a better song tho, and not overplayed lol.

Shallow didn’t work for me because of her relentless screaming throughout. Yet, she’s also created some delicious pop bangers (Edge of Glory, Bad Romance), so this could be amazing. Both of their musical careers need a shot in the arm right now, and this might also help Bruno pay off his MGM tab, lol, so I'm hopeful. My only concern, as Vegas vets, is that we don’t end up with a dull showtune.

I don't care for most of the ballads by either artist, so I'm hoping this is like how 2 ugly people tend to have beautiful kids.

I bet this song is a lot of fun. The movie will be a blast. Happy Bruno and Ga have teamed up. they both can use a big career boost, and I bet this song gives it to them.

A 1-track CD release is available on her store (US only), which ships once the track and the music video is out at midnight ET. The description confirms that it's a 'timeless ballad'.

The last “timeless ballad” from her I could’ve lived without… so hopefully it’s more in the vein of “Always Remember Us This Way” and the Top Gun song.

Voice sounds much better than on 'Shallow', which is also one of the reasons I don't gravitate towards that song. Looking forward to the whole song.

Oh thank God it's not a piano ballad, she is not that girl. Sounds really nice based on the clip.

At least she'll get an AC Top 10 out of this. For a few hours I was hopeful we'd get a dance-pop or R&B/Funk jam.

Described as "timeless ballad", hyped!!! This isn't throwing shade at anyone because I think Lady Gaga is one of the nicest and kindest person in the industry, but how can anything be called, "timeless" before it's even released? Isn't that adjective earned after it being a hit and then continuing to remain popular for years? When I think of timeless ballads I think of classic hits. Or maybe I'm missing something?

That's the way it's described on her official store, which you could read it below. Let's see whether this ends up being one or not in the time to come.
