ROAR is poetry compared to Applause.

Roar, even if the lyrics are basic „I got the eye of the tiger, the fire” still sounds better than „Nostalgia's for geeks, I guess sir if you say so, some of us just likes to read.”

lol, this.

Applause probably got the worst lyrics in a pop song since Rebecca Black's Friday.
Awful just doesn't cut it when it comes to describing that mess.

Roar

I can't understand what the hell gaga is saying so Roar

LOL Roar is better in every aspect.

I still don't know what Applause is about. Roar is better.

Applause's lyrics in the verses make no sense. Roar's lyrics are better as a whole.

compared to

key word.

I prefer pop songs that I can sing along to and Applause is just a mess lyrically
sonically the chorus slays, but that's about it

so Roar

Roar is trite af.

You really expect a song titled Applause to be introspective and lyrically moving? Oh honey.

Roar.

Roar... have you heard the tragedy that is applause lyrics

Yup.

Roar

Katy is earning her stripes

Some real tony the tiger bull ****

Applause's lyrics. But people aren't going to know what she's talking about because they're not artistically informed.

It's a shame, but that's Gaga for you.. do your homework and her lyrics will make perfect sense!
