Anyway, I hope what they do post-production is better then what was heard. The song needs to be tweaked I can accept the fact that this is a Poker Face redux/clone. But I'm a need something to be done about that bridge at the very least. I hope they flesh out the chorus and turn it into something more then "ra-ra-ra-ah-ah". But that may be too much to ask for.

It is strange to note that every person shrieking that it is a huge mess and terrible has certain other musical preferences. Maybe Gaga just isn't your thing?
I will wait to start my shrieking since she said it was a demo that makes her OWN ears bleed. Obviously not a finished version and I won't judge it as such.

Gaga is my fifth most played artist in the past two years. So the argument that she isn't my "liking" is false as her singles have faired extremely well on my own personal chart (Poker Face #1, Just Dance #2, Paparazzi #2, LoveGame #3, Beautiful Dirty Rich #5, etc.) Why is there an issue with criticism when it comes to Gaga. Is she above reproach or something? There isn't something wrong with a person just because they aren't flailing around in there seat after listening to this. Perhaps the problem for some of us is that this isn't as great, fresh nor as interesting/"innovative" (lyrically or production-wise) as her previous songs?

This isn't even the final version. It's a demo. The song sounds VERY promising, I already have the chorus stuck in my head.

Just so you know the bridge is 3 lines: You know that I want you Then you that I need you I want a bad, a bad, a bad romance and the chorus is: I want your love and I want your revenge You and me throughout a bad romance (oh oh) I want your love and all your lovers revenge You and me throughout a bad romance (oh oh) Call it a bad romance (oh oh oh) Call it a bad romance (oh oh oh) /Caught in a bad romance - I'm not too sure. The ra ra ra bit is one of the hooks.

I wasn't referring to you-my reply just happened to come near your last reply. It just seems everyone shrieking about how its the worst song ever likes a different type of music or is into a different type of pop sound. Sometimes it is more than just not liking a song versus just not liking a sound or artist. I am surprised you seem to love Gaga so much though because I remember you criticizing a lot of her past songs? That is cool though-I guess we do have more artists in common that we both love :) I have decided not to download this-I just think it would be worthless when it isn't the actual song really. I may after we get the actual final version.

Yeah I don't even remember that part of the song, so that pretty much says everything that I was trying to say before in my previous posts. Not nearly as strong or as memorable as some of her previous songs as I don't even remember half of the song. And that bridge section needs to be worked on, it sounds messy.

Y'know what I find amusing? The Britney fans are crying foul that they're being accused of fan-trolling by stating dislike for this yet the only people finding criticism so far are the Britney fans. Not saying that it's some co-ordinated fan effort but it is a pretty compelling coincidence IMO. The whole 'you-can't-criticize' thing goes both ways. No-one (GaGa fan, Britney fan or otherwise) should be climbing on their high horses in the name of one or the other just because someone else maybe *doesn't* like X song while the former does and seemingly fandom-oriented criticism doesn't exactly do wonders for one's objectivity.

So you're criticising the song and saying bits need work on etc without even remembering the song other than ra ra ra ra? Maybe you should give it some more listens/pay attention to the chorus when you hear it so that you can actually pass comment on it or just wait for the final version.

PLEASE wait til you hear the real version before you make such a criticism. It may be that all those things are not true of the real version.

I am surprised you seem to love Gaga so much though because I remember you criticizing a lot of her past songs? I don't remember criticizing the production of her songs sans Paparazzi. I even wrote a glowing recommendation about "Paparazzi" in the thread on this board. I have stated that I don't think she's written a fully great song, there are bits and pieces of her songs that are truly amazing, the verses to Poker Face, the chorus to Paparazzi and LoveGame, and the bridge in Just Dance. But I have yet to hear a song from her where everything was perfect and well placed. It seems like she writes a great bit here and there and just creates a song out of it. But for the most part I have always thought "The Fame" was an incredibly well produced album which is why Gaga is one of my most played artists. I am not getting anything out of this as of yet though. Hopefully the do something about the structure of this song because it does seem incredibly messy.

Only 'didn't like it' and the last one are negative comments, and for the last one you missed out the "I guess *shrugs*" which shows they aren't that against it, they're just mutual for the song - not exaclty negative. So that's one person who doesn't like it that doesn't have britney avatar/sig.

Talk about splitting hairs. It's obvious from the responses I posted above the response has been lack luster for them (at the very least) compared to what they were expecting from her which was my main point. Add in Gaga's own disapproval with it and numerous other posters who just happen to be Britney fans and I feel there is a collective group who are disappointed in this demo due to it's own quality. Which pretty much ruins the theory that this is some fan coup just trying to "bring Gaga down". You may love it. Great. But that doesn't change the fact that there are people who wanted more from this.

Well I am glad to hear this is a demo and that even Gaga wasn't happy with it. That must mean the finished version is much better. I will give it a shot but I am not sure I can ever like the verses unless the song was reworked to some degree. The things I don't like have to do with more than just the "quality" of the demo, IMO.

I was just stating that from what I'd seen the only detractory statements came from Britney fans and/or supporters. Pure coincidence had that been a case - not a coup.
