Lady Gaga

I've always said:

Venus
Do What U Want
G.U.Y
Sexxx Dreams
Gypsy
Applause

should have been the singles run in an ideal world. Applause is fun and certainly did the job, but Venus feels the most 'Gaga' as a lead single. I get that DWUW and Gypsy are problematic, but if we're basing it solely off how things should have gone in 2013, that would be the run to me.

I always think its funny when fans list their ideal singles run, they leave out G.U.Y. Yes, it flopped but not because it wasn't a good choice. It is the most obvious single on the entire album.

I mainly left it out of mine because I know Gaga is utterly incapable of getting more than 2 videos together for a campaign post-Born This Way. I was already pushing it at 4! But in a perfect world it would have been released before “Venus” to introduce the mythological concept.
 
Did she even perform Perfect Illusion on TV at all in the US? I don't think so. Her promo blitzing has gotten less and less as the albums have gone on. So the GP isn't going to cling to a song when there's little to cling to as far as performances. Not to mention her fashion aesthetics were not as raved about for that era in comparison to every era before it. Although that was okay because people were getting a bit fatigued with her looking wild anyways I think.

She only "performed" it on James Corden during the CarPool Karaoke and then twice in Japan.
 
I remember the release day of Joanne and being a tad let down. It's certainly an album I have grown to like now but I need to be in a specific mood to be able to enjoy it.
