JUDAS +

I don't know how Easter is coming a week early, can anyone care to explain to me how that's possible?

What KitKat13 meant to say was "Judas was released 4 days before its ~scheduled~ release date."

I... really dislike the song. :( Twitter friends (see poster directly above) hyped the song SO much on the day it was released and honestly wouldn't shut up about it so I was expecting great things. I heard about a minute of it and hated it. Gave it another try when I wasn't trying to stream from my phone the next day and still didn't like it.

I just... there's barely a melody I can follow except in the chorus (which is... pretty boring, even by pop standards--it's one word repeated over and over D:) and almost everything that's not the chorus just doesn't sound good to me. Haven't really looked at the lyrics yet but I don't turn to songs for deep meaning--I turn to them for something to listen to when I need some background noise. And this song just doesn't work for me that way.

Also, wasn't the leak unintentional, whether four days before street date or not? I heard that Gaga was upset at one of her concerts that day or the day after because of the leak. So I guess either she's a good actress (though isn't she usually pretty open with her fans?) or else it's just coincidence. I'm banking on the latter.

I'm not a fan of Lady Gaga, but I decided to give in and listen to "this song that everybody was raving about". I must say, it's really catchy and sounds great. Props to Gaga, on this one.

I'm not really a fan of Lady Gaga, so feel free to not take my opinion seriously, but I liked 0:22 to 0:30. That bit of the song is really good, it reminds me of some of the music I like (especially that last bit of that 8 second part, which reminds me a lot of some math-rock). Her vocals in this song annoy me though, and the song in general just isn't that catchy/great.
