To be fair, theres really nothing wrong with the instrumental. I don't understand for a second the opposition to the way it sounds, my issue with it are the lyrics. If she were to completely re-write it i'd be down for it to be a single possibly. Her execution vocally was dope too, she essentially ruined what would've been a killer track with dumb lyrical content.

I've seen a lot of Katy fans liking this song. It must be worth putting on iTunes.

Watch them change their minds and drag Aura IF it under performs.

All you in here talkin about whether you want it to be reased or not..

I'm not telling you to do anything if you actually read what I posted. I wish isn't a command. And i'm aware that it could just be a promo single but i'd rather it wouldn't be. I don't want the song to get exposure. If it were up to me it would've been tossed from the album altogether but obviously its not. I will have to put up with its existence and correlation with the film, but im not supporting it.

Why wouldn't you want this song to get exposure? It's not like she'll lose anything by putting this up for a promo single.You can NEVER predict what kind of success a song might get. We predicted applause to flop but look where it is now.
My suggestion is that instead of whining and predicting how this song perform on iTunes, you should save your energy and comments until we get the first week sales report

Who even cares if it flops, it's a promo single. That's the love of them. Basically risk free.

Where have you seen me mention anything about itunes or sales? Heres the thing, the demo leaking caused an immensely negative backlash from social justice teams online which bled into everyone elses psyche, now when it gets released on a massive scale imagine the kind of backlash it will receive then? she doesn't need that kind of negative attention. Its stupid to release it in any form in my opinion but alas theres nothing I can do about it.
Heres where one of you say "shes a 'risky' artist and you cant expect her to be safe, she pushes peoples buttons, blah blah, etc etc" but the song isn't provocative in a way thats intelligent or well crafted, it sort of tip toes around provocation with her use of the word burqa and with her implications of burqas which was done on purpose to cause a stir with said social justice warriors. But its not actually provocative and all the controversy will be in vain. I don't think any of you quite understand the impact social justice has on popular culture these days and regardless of your own personal opinions on whether or not this song is actually offensive, it is seen as offensive to many and their voices are loud especially when it comes to being given a chance to tear down Lady Gaga which people seek constantly and that will affect not only the songs popularity but her own already scarred reputation.
On top of all of that though, the song really isn't even worth it. Of what we've heard she has better (Sex Dreams) and im sure theres better of what we haven't heard. Aura lyrically is kind of dumb regardless of its use of the word burqa "to hide the gorgeousness of my face" I mean really? Gaga can write better lyrics than that.

Too much for a promo single that's all I have to say.

I know but it's on there. There's nothing we can do about it. So I don't see the point in ranting about it. I'm glad that you've felt you've expressed yourself though. After listening to the song, I'd rather have heard something else but I'm glad to be getting it in HQ early.

This is a forum where you talk about ****ing pop stars. This is brand new information to me and since I don't support it I said so and since people questioned me about it I responded.
I don't need your defensive stan attitude either so but its what we signed up for so get over it.

The point in ranting about it is that this is why this forum exists! To talk about pop stars and pop music! Why shouldn't I rant about it here I mean honestly....
And I already stated that obviously theres nothing I can do about it existing, all I can do is not support it. I was questioned about it so I responded.

Let's just wait and see how it performs on iTunes. We'll know whether the people are here for this or not.

I love the track but I hope it's not the 2nd single. Maybe Machete Kills soundtrack?

Again, I'm glad you've felt that you've expressed yourself. I still don't see the point in ranting about a song that's going to be on the album whether you do or not like that fact that it's on there. That's just my point of view. You don't have to agree with that.
