I like some bits though

Mess. Repent buddy, please.

Easily one of Gaga's best choruses though I find it kind of ironic that the "hook" is actually not as great as the rest of the song.

[BadMonster]

The first iTunes #1 for Gaga in The Netherland in years

[Flame]

Ugh. The amount that this is slaying me is TOO much.

How long until the pre-order sales to kick in the U.S.

Same. The chorus is seriously great. I love it. The hook is ehh.

Did you not read though? I literally said "just because the songs share certain elements (as they would because theyre all gaga brand songs) doesn't mean Venus is on the same level as BR".

Yes yes, you've made it clear that she writes odd lyrics, I never denied that. But even with the lyrics you posted some people may have hated at the time (i dont even know who youre talking about but I could only imagine the ATRL drama queens), but they're not nearly as disjointed as Venus or Applause' second verse melodically speaking. Just because they're also odd doesn't mean they are the same, Bad Romance works more than Venus. And thats not to say I don't like Venus, because I do.

And dont act like you know how I think either. I felt the same about Bad Romance 4 years ago as I do now.

That's nice that you think they're more "melodically disjointed" than Bad Romance, that's an opinion. Doesn't change the fact that it's hypocritical to praise the Bad Romance verses and attack the Venus verses.

The reasons that you say dislike the Venus verses hold true to the Bad Romance verses. You don't have to like the song, or you can like it, but at least have some logical consistency to these arguments. ddddddddd;

Its not hypocritical. I've already said twice that they both contain similar elements, but that just because they do doesn't mean one can't work more than the other.

You're viewpoint is very one dimensional. Just because they share similar elements doesn't mean they're the same.

Doesn't the fact that this is climbing at a different rate than DWUW prove the pre-orders thing false?

[Eaten By Lions]

The "I can't help the way I'm feeling..." pre-chorus is the best part

I think so, people keep saying pre-order sales have this enormous impact but if that were the case Applause would've went number one as well. Theres no solid logic to that argument, I think people just say that to somehow berate her success. Like "oh its just because of pre-sale, its not like people are actually buying it". Obviously they did if it went number one.

[BTrisc]

That #3 spot isn't safe.

[Hollywood.]

Why does everyone insist on comparing everything she does to Bad Romance?

Agreed!

The pre chorus>> bridge>> chorus >> verses

But I love everything!!!

[Vespertine]

Already #1 in 55 countries

I know it's probably just from the preorder boost or whatever, but at least that means the pre-order is doing pretty well

[Luc]

This song is giving me serious life right now

If somebody wants Venus gifted, this person is gifting right now on twitter, go ask him:

I didn't. They brought it up in comparison to the lyrical randomness of the verses.

If pre-order boosts were that powerful Applause would've went number one.
