I'm a bit confused about this -

At first I thought "Judas is not doing well as a single, so another one was picked."

Then I thought "No, it's just a money grab - the album is two months away and we're on the third single already?" But this isn't the case, since any purchase of this single (on iTunes) counts as a credit towards the album purchase price.

So I came full circle, and decided I'm not the only one who thinks Judas is out of place on the radio, and another single was needed.

I agree with this. I think they were like "Oh ****. This song is not hitting like all her others." They got worried and released one more friendly.

.....and another comes out next week. :cool: 4 songs prior to the release? WTF?

Really? I hear Judas on the radio all the time, and think it's really popular, at least in my school :shrug:

Another cute techn0-pop ditty:rolleyes: same sh*t, different day. She is destroying any hope I had for this album, track by track. Lady Gaga= single most promising, yet frustrating artist ever:(

I don't like it as much as "Born This Way" or "Judas" but it's fun. It's just not that unique, which is a problem I've been having with all of the songs on this album so far. I think I have really high expectations for Gaga's uniqueness and so far, she's not living up to them.

Also, there is a Clarence Clemons sax solo in this song, so it gets automatic points for that, with a few taken away for the fact that it's a bit overproduced to the point where it takes away from the awesomeness of having Clarence Clemons wail on your song to begin with.

I think it's better than the first two, and I have no idea why it wasn't the lead single. I've seen a lot of other people on other websites have the same opinion, too. Either way, I love it. :laugh:

Her album actually comes out in 2 weeks... Judas peaked at #10 on the Hot 100... It may climb beyond that now that there is a video... but the first single stayed at no.1 for like 5 weeks so in comparison, Judas didn't do very well. That's likely the reason for the issue of another single so quickly.

I'm with Chris - Judas is eating up the airways & people's iPods around here anyway!.....excluding the catholics etc. :shrug:

It's only a promo single, and if you buy it on itunes, the cost of the single is deducted from the cost of the album; which is pretty funky, really.

I think that is the case with any singles from albums that are yet to be released on iTunes. Good plan too, because at this point, I've already spent $4 on Gaga's album that still ain't out yet, I'm not gonna want to spend those $4 again to get three of the same songs!

The song "Hair" will also be released prior to the album release. It's a retail strategy ("iTunes countdown singles") that has worked quite well for Taylor Swift and Black Eyed Peas.

I don't like this, and I only slightly like Born this Way because of what they did on Glee.

At least Judas has an awesome back beat for part of the song, although I think most of it is garbage. I will NOT be buying what she's selling this time around.

Maybe I just don't get it. :distress:

i like this song better than judas or born this way but it still doesnt grab me like any of the songs on the fame or the fame monster. i loved every single song on both of those cd's.

'Judas' has been gaining more airplay in the past week I believe. I don't think the record company is panicking. GaGa just wants to get her material out to the public so she's teasing us with "Edge" and then we get "Hair" next week. I've thoroughly enjoyed these songs and the direction she's heading with this record.

Not to be rude.....but what direction is she heading? Just sounds like revenge of the fame.....agan:laugh: I wish she'd just um.....grow musically. Just IMO, of course.

I think she's growing musically and lyrically. But that's my opinion.

I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE this song!:blob2:

It's so refreshing! ;)

It already has like 4 million hits on youtube & I think they should 'disable' the comments on her clips! People leave stupid comments left & right....
