Brave has the exact same instrumental as Roar. It's basically the same song sung differently. Like Tik Tok to Cali Gurls.
Roar is so basic

, but I like it.
Anyway, Applause has so much potential, too bad it ended up sounding messy. The verse is horrible. Why can't Gaga keep it simple instead singing like she's possessed by the devil. The pre chorus is great, the chorus is messy. The chorus should have been just APPLAUSE sound instead of the messy "make em touch".
