You do realize that is a good thing...
Because with it being released this early, the Promo would have done nothing for it if it was selling crazy amounts.
Gaga is starting off slower but still owning, shes going to be Number 1 for awhile.
And she was never going to Debut at #1 with this release date anyways so it doesn't make a difference.
Weren't you the one who was saying this would sell BTW #'s straight off the back just because it was Gaga in the poll area?
Neither can I, and I'm finding that kind of scary. Needless to say this is officially my favorite GaGa song, ever.
Lyrically (to me), the song is not so much about loving darkness or "wrongness", but more about accepting and even embracing your attraction to it. It's an anthem that inspires you to celebrate the underlying motivation behind your worst bad-habits and reoccurring "mistakes".
I think it becomes an even more meaningful statement when you consider the fact that what people often perceive as "negative" isn't naturally their own belief, but a lot of times determined by what society has led them to believe. So in that respect the song becomes about embracing your decisions you've made despite the fact that they may be interpreted by outsiders as "wrong".
I also think the song seeks to diminish much of the power that these "mistakes" and darkness hold over us. In the line "I'll bring him down, a king with no crown" It seems to be a metaphor for humanizing the entire notion of negativity, which we often put on a moral pedastal, making it seem larger than it really is.
We all make what we percieve as wrong decisions, and we certainly all make what people other than ourselves judge to be wrong decisions, and this song is about diminishing their inflated grandeur, humanizing them, accepoting them, and confessing our uncontrolable attraction to them, thereby rendering them harmless.

Why is the UK turning her back on her this severely? They made all her main singles #1.
I guess she needs to promote a little bit there. I don't know if there's any promotion for Judas lined up and I've heard that MV are a big thing in UK for the charts.
