Love this song!! Waiting for iTunes to put it up for purchase! Probably tomorrow?

I predict it going to #1.

Here's the single version. It's the shorter version of the music video.

It's not her best song or even in her top 20. But it's still so much better then the sickness song. I am also interested in what the rest of the album has to offer. The video is good, but not... WOW Gaga is doing something revolutionary-good. It's just good. Like it, she has better videos again. I think she's gone into territory where her past material is so iconic that it's so hard to live pass it. Michael Jackson / Madonna type of curse... where people can't shake off the memory of your greatest hits.

Overall I still give it a solid 6/10!

Favourite song on the album. It’s so good! I’ve listened to it probably 10+ times already.

It sure does! LOL I'm obsessed with it too.  I literally listen to it for a hour straight on repeat (trying to learn the lyrics).  I've never done this for a non-Taylor Swift song before.   

The beginning of the song has this sound effect that is similar to the sound effect at the beginning of Taylor's "Gorgeous" so that's the first I connected to Taylor.   The lyrics, the melody, the production, the use of the background vocals, the use of the repetition of some of the lyrics: You're not the guy that cheats (The guy that cheats) / And you're afraid that she might leave (That she might leave).

The post Chorus as well:

[Post-Chorus]
Uh-oh, oh, you love a good girl
Uh-oh, oh, you love a good girl bad
Uh-oh, oh, you make a bad girl
Uh-oh, oh, you make a bad girl mad
A psychotic love theme
How bad do you want me?

 

All of these things were very Taylor-esque to me.  I can't wait to sing/shout these lyrics when I hopefully attend my first Gaga concert.  She better go on tour! LOL

Other songs I really liked were: Vanish Into You, LoveDrug, Don't Call Tonight, Shadow Of A Man.

I think it's a pretty good album and I'm sure I'll like it even more as I continue to listen to it. 

Would love to see her go full on synth pop and do more songs likes like HBDUWM.

When I hear the "How bad do you want me?" I get goosebumps... that's the Taylor moment for me. 

I am still not decided on the album. I think some of the songs are real stinkers... but there are diamonds in there too.  I still have 2-3 more tracks to hear.

    • Thank u so much! I love that show and the more I see of it the more I want to find more of it even if it’s just in script form. But that house and especially the room looked like Victoria Winters room from dark shadows lol  this was great find! Thanks 
    • I genuinely thought when they said she had been throwing up, we were going to get a pregnancy story. I’m actually not convinced we aren’t. Especially the way she and Doug danced around her own infidelity.
    • Shouldn't it be the other way? I don't think Taylor Hayes is playing Rebecca Budig.

    • And the most detailed discussion I've seen from an industry figure about some of JFP's worst choices as a producer (steamrolling over writers) was from another woman, Megan McTavish.
    • IMDb is definitely incorrect, because the final week of episodes in 1974 is uploaded to Youtube in audio form, and Mark and Laurie are there until the very end. The last episode shows Mark going back to the priesthood. I looked at the newspaper and the earliest reference to their house being haunted by Georgina is in December of 1973. This is dated Dec 14, but this same synopsis ran in the papers until the end of December in other publications. So it must have been within those last 3-4 months. I think Stephanie Braxton joined around 1969-1970 so that's probably right. I saw it stated in other newspapers that David Gale joined around September 1972.

    • Opal having siblings could add to the story. However, it raises questions about Tad's adoption. Why were the Martins allowed to adopt him if Tad had aunts or uncles who could have cared for him?  Logic limited the number of possible Gardner's (and whatever Opal's maiden name was).  Even though Linda Thorson would have been a hysterical choice given her British accent.  Especially because SOD often published questions by readers who wondered why Tad and Jenny didn't speak like their mother.   All of which is still not an excuse for Tad's evil doppelgänger Ted. 
    • And if I remember correctly, at one point, they were considering having Linda Thorson play Opal's sister.
    • Interesting. Makes me wonder how the day to day looked for Secret Storm at this point in the run. This seems very to deal with the psychological aspect, I guess the "inner storm", and the music is almost sinister. If this is from 1974 there's not much room for dates it could've been from as it ended on February 8th.  It's hard to tell from an edit featuring just one storyline, but if this was the day to day it might've been heavy for the casual viewers.   ETA: Stephanie Braxton is credited to have appeared as Laurie from 1970-1973. David Gale is credited only in 1973 and Alexander Scourby from 1972-1973. I know IMDB isn't always right, but I'd say this is likely 1973 - I'm guessing all these characters exited before 1974 and this might be a part of their final storyline. 
    • Well, they were both involved with Ray Gardner.  Then, the actress left in 1980, only to return as a somewhat broader interpretation of the character after Dottie was SORASed.  By that time, Opal had left in 1983.  So, while they serve the same story function,(verbally abusive/neglectful mothers who make you feel sorry for their daughters), one could argue that Edna was the carbon copy.
