New Song: Lady Gaga – ‘Venus’ {Snippet}

Published: Friday 25th Oct 2013 by Sam

The drip-feeding continues.

Lady GaGa serves up another taste of ‘ARTPOP’ with this freshly released snippet of ‘Venus’ – the latest “promo” single  to be lifted from the eagerly-anticipated LP.

As previously reported, the DJ White Shadow track was replaced as the second single from the album following the trail-blazing success of former “promo” song ‘Do What U Want’. 

Really, though; what are you waiting for? Go intergalactic with Mother Monster after the jump…

Wow.

An electro-banger, no doubt. However, the small taste we had has us wondering how this would have fared as a single (see: radio). Would the risk (and make no mistake, the track is a “risk”) have paid off?

Whatever the answer, kudos for GaGa for not playing it safe and consistently pushing the envelope. ‘ARTPOP’ (due November 11th) is shaping up to be quite the must-have.

‘Venus’ impacts iTunes next Monday.

    Is this her next single?

    • Kate October 25, 2013

      what the f***?
      this is garbage.

      • R I P Lady Gaga October 25, 2013

        Agree, Gaga should fire DJ Shadow White. This song sucks to the core !!!!!!!

      • Gaga’s Secret Is Out October 25, 2013

        GAGA’S DIRTY SECRET….Listen up!

        Is everyone aware that iTunes album pre-orders affect singles positions? Everytime someone pre-ordered Artpop -Applause was credited with a single’s sale. Same for Do What U Want, and next week with Venus, and after that the next promo single.
        Once the album is released, all of the singles “sales” will be deducted and instantly become album purchases through the complete-my-album feature. What this means is that Applause has been BUOYED all along by the pre-sales of the album. This is also why Do What U Want appeared to have strong sales from the start, but in reality, those were just the automatic downloads for people who had pre-ordered the album. In other words, next to nobody actually purchased the song as a single.
        Watch and see when Venus blasts off on iTunes exactly the same as Do What U Want did, even without a single person buying it. And, the following promo single, rumored to be Dope, is also guaranteed to make a big splash on iTunes. It’s already “in the bag”. Afterwards, she will act all surprised by the “overwhelming” response to the tracks, even though it has absolutely NOTHING to do with actual single’s purchases…
        Now, Gaga isn’t the only one who gets to take advantage of the ridiculous policy. Katy Perry’s album pre-sales also enhanced Roar and her two promo singles. The difference, of course, is that Roar would’ve been a huge hit even without the assist, whereas Applause has literally been kept afloat by the iTunes albums pre-sales. and would have vanished from the top a long, long time ago without them.

        A pathetic song from a pathetic self-proclaimed musician ever.

      Agree! Bad Romance was her last GREAT hit right after Paparazzi.

  3. Davide Laffe October 25, 2013

    Gaga fan here … But I’m so glad #dowhatuwant replaced this song as a single. I don’t like this song but looking forward to this album , Britney, possibly Rihanna’s or whatever female powerhouse is releasing a new album the 4th or 1st quarter

    • Flake Like Lady Gaga October 25, 2013

      Hey CACA fans, you forgot to ask her to give credit to those artists she plagiarized.

      BIG surprise… 🙁

  4. Career Ender October 25, 2013

    I can’t with this f****** tadpole looking flopping b****, the f*** is this gaga?

    No no no!

    F*** off!

    Artpop will flop on and on *Celine Dion’s voice*

    • Interflop Record October 25, 2013

      Not even close to snatch the Queen of Pop title. This song is just sad to Gaga’s career.

  5. Amanda Bynes October 25, 2013

    She’s done. She’s finished.

    No

  7. Rosie October 25, 2013

    Sounds like another 2010/2011 reject. And dead @ the lyrics. She’s such a terrible songwriter.
    Yet another song that will plummet down the iTunes charts after a week.

    • Slayty Perry (Legendary Lovers) October 25, 2013

      No lies detected. Her fans stay bringing up how she writes her own songs (along with 8 co-writers) and they’re absolute garbage.

    • ATM JAM October 25, 2013

      the funny thing is, she didnt even right these lyrics, they were STOLEN from Zombie Zombie (indie electro artist) and his song Rocket # 9

  8. RICHIE_RICH October 25, 2013

    I’m just not into this type of music. Gaga what was this hun.

    I WANT SEXX DREAMS:

    Last night
    Our lovers quarrel
    I was thinking about you
    Heard more than I can say
    And it was kind of dirty
    Oh my, and the way that you looked at me (help me here)
    It was kind of nasty (help me here)
    It was kind of trashy
    Cause I can’t help my mind from going there

    Heard your boyfriend was away this weekend
    Wanna meet at my place
    Heard that we both got nothing to do
    When I lay in bed I touch myself and I think of you

    [Chorus]
    Last night
    Damn you were in my s** dreams
    Doing really nasty things
    Damn you were in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams

    We could be caught (I just want this to be perfect)
    We’re both convicted criminals of thought (cause im broken)
    Let’s white (by the one before) glove the bed
    He was kinda nasty (help me here)
    And I feel so trashy
    Cause we can’t hide the evidence in our heads
    Heard your boyfriend was away this weekend
    Wanna meet at my place
    Heard that we both got nothing to do
    When I lay in bed I touch myself and I think of you

    [Chorus]
    Last night
    Damn you were in my s** dreams
    Doing really nasty things
    Damn you were in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams

    When we were in the swimming pool
    I was gonna show you
    And want this something better
    Dangerous poetry rhyme with that body some other time to look right on the thousand drug

    I can’t believe I’m telling you this but I’ve had a couple of drinks and oh my god

    [Chorus]
    Last night
    Damn you were in my s** dreams
    Doing really nasty things
    Damn you were in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams
    Making love in my s** dreams

  9. Jay K October 25, 2013

    Hahahahahahaha. What a crap song! I wish she released this so she could drop, drop and drop down the charts which she apparently “doesn’t care” for. S** Dreams and Do What U Want are the only good tracks so far. GURL BYE!

  14. gio88 October 25, 2013

    i have to say after listening prism , kudos to lady gaga for trying to do something different ,and not generic like katy perry!

    • Slayty Perry (Legendary Lovers) October 25, 2013

      What type of delusion? Lmao!!! This song makes Ke$ha’s Tik Tok song like Rolling In the Deep. Applause is the most generic thing released this year. I can’t!!

  15. VANNY October 25, 2013

    is it me or is lady gaga all over the place with this new album?? i mean releasing all these singles and snippets, switching the singles last minute, the supposs leak of “applause” the pictures she has released that they all seem to be so different and make no sense, and also is seems like she is straining her voice on some songs and forcing it to much i guess to prove that she can sing like for example the “applause” verses… wich there is no need we all know she can sing!! .. and why does she always praise her albums so much and get our hopes all up! honestly im not all impressed with the music she has been releasing so far smh… just keeping it real,

    • HOTSTUFF October 25, 2013

      yes honey thanks for keeping it real.

    • Slayty Perry (Legendary Lovers) October 25, 2013

      Like how you were up early to post on the Katy thread?

  24. christinastherealtalent October 25, 2013

    I wonder if she’s going to change singles again now that DWUW is sliding down itunes? Maybe it’s the reason why she released the snippet for this song. Gaga is def not slaying this era. Remember when she used to release a new song and it would dominate the top 10 without any promo and would sit there for months at a time? Those days are gobne

  25. Career Ender October 25, 2013

    Looking like some evil queen character from Nigerian movies, but an UGLIER one

    I can’t even bring myself to click play…

  27. Career Ender October 25, 2013

    Instead of liking simple uncomplicated videos like ‘roar’ and etc. Beshees like water park and pharaoh (they know themselves) would be liking this stupid complicated sh**

    I’m so effffing tired with this b*tch’s hideous, ugly, develish videos

    Can she just perish, evaporate, combust or something .pls!!!!!

    • Stop the drama Start the music October 25, 2013

      B**** Prism is a lame album. No one will care about that album months from now. If Gaga’s album won’t be a classic neither will Perry’s. u fairy queens crack me up thinking these artists give a s*** about ur worthless opinions…

      • Slayty Perry (Legendary Lovers) October 25, 2013

        Katy name gives you joy to type, doesn’t it? Your ass stays trying to convince people Prism is a bad album yet there isn’t a single negative review. Prism will outsell Artflop in the long run just like Teenage Dream did to Plagiarize This Way. Katy has longevity. Gags comes out with a loud bang and burns quickly. The proof is in the charts.

      • Stop the drama Start the music October 25, 2013

        “There isn’t a single negative review”. Lies. I already checked. 63/100 metacritic isn’t exactly great either….

      • Stop the drama Start the music October 25, 2013

        BTW outsold TD. TD: 5.5 million. BTW: 6 million. WW. Check ur facts then get back at me.

  28. christinastherealtalent October 25, 2013

    I wonder…if her lil tactics continue to fail, will she resort to the gay community with a “pride” song since that will def sell?

    • ok October 25, 2013

      She’ll try everything. She’s a fame w****

  29. Kimbella October 25, 2013

    a hot ass mess.

  30. CzarM October 25, 2013

    Didn’t bother to listen because I already know it’s crap.

  31. mr.m October 25, 2013

    ART-FLOP

  32. XXX October 25, 2013

    Oh gosh smh

  33. Lovebird October 25, 2013

    She should have just let RedOne write all the songs like she did on The Fame and Fame Monster because this retarded s*** is getting sad.

    By the time this album is out, The Monsters will see an epidemic if throat cancer with all the sucking they would have done.

    • Stop the drama Start the music October 25, 2013

      Y’all would drag her even worse if she had stuck with redone and say she’s not developing as an artist. She really can’t win either way with y’all since ur not a fan anyways (so it seems) so go back to ur basic Perry music cuz this type of art is not and will NEVER be for u…

    • XX October 25, 2013

      Gaga is not about creating the same album twice unlike Katy Perry who stuck with the same old producers for Prism and came out with the safest, most generic and forgettable music she possibly can.

      I love both Katy and Gaga. But I am extremely disappointed with Prism because it’s so similar to Teenage Dream and there was little to no sonic evolution.

      • Slayty Perry (Legendary Lovers) October 25, 2013

        Prism is legitimately nothing like Teenage Dream. You tried it

      • LTM October 25, 2013

        You’re obviously not a fan of Katy’s cause Prism sounds nothing like Teenage Dream. In fact, that was the biggest pro and con of Prism for all of the reviews. Prism is much more personal than Teenage Dream. TD was more euphoric and about empowering and embracing love. Every song off the album was designed to be a hit and to touch the general public. Teenage Dream doesn’t have any songs like Choose Your Battles, Legendary Lovers, Unconditionally, Ghost, Spiritual, By the Grace of God, Love Me, or It Takes Two. The only Teenage Dream similar songs off Prism are This Moment and This Is How We Do. She took a risk by not making an album full of hits and focused on maturing and lyrical content. A real fan could see that.

      • Stop the drama Start the music October 25, 2013

        Sorry there has already been iTunes reviews on the album saying they are disappointed as well.

  34. Lovebird October 25, 2013

    I cannot wait for “Common Sense” to drag her to end of earth.

  35. Stop the drama Start the music October 25, 2013

    I like how everything she’s doing is related to the album theme. Only simple minds won’t get this. It’s not for everyone but she’s staying true to herself and art and that’s all that matters.

  36. Just…moi October 25, 2013

    Flop

    • XX October 25, 2013

      And yet you’re bothered enough to check out her post and leave a comment

  37. XX October 25, 2013

    I am SO SICK of all the mindless bashing of artists and stan wars going on at this site.

    Every day, all I see in the comments sections is fans being overly defensive and overly sensitive and talking about chart positions and sales and how their fave is the best. It’s so stupid.

    It’s definitely not wrong to have an opinion, but at least validate your views and don’t publicly declare your hate and air your negativity just because you have some sort of personal vendetta against the artist.

    Stop breeding the negativity. If you have nothing nice or constructive to say, then don’t say anything at all. Air your grievances elsewhere.

    As for the snippet, I am not entirely feeling it but I love that she’s experimenting without straying too far from her signature sound and weird/kooky lyrics. I pity Gaga because when she released “Applause”, the people here bashed her for it being too “generic” and now that she’s exploring “weirder” and not-so-commercial territories, they bash her either way.

    Gaga, just keep doing your thing. Wish you all the best!

    • Stop the drama Start the music October 25, 2013

      But, sis, u have to look at who they stan for…obviously they have low standards in the first place. 😉

  38. Just…moi October 25, 2013

    ‘i don’t write for the charts i write for the music’ she is a liar, a flop, a sabotage, and she is a disgusting trash the plain truth is that she writes only for the charts and devil she lives for the applause but glad that no one is clapping

  39. *ℙᏫℙ ℝᏫᎩAℒᎿᎩ* October 25, 2013

    I won’t Be Dumb And Judge an Entire Song Based on a “Snippet”, BUT I don’t Think it Will Be That Bad.

    I don’t See The Envelop She’s Pushing Or how This is a “Risk” to be Honest. 🙄

    She’s Out Of Place+Lost+Not Confident this Era, Not Even Funny.

  40. DEM LESSORS October 25, 2013

    Why is she so obsessed with doing stuff on her own and working with the basic DJ Shadow White. Collaborate with new people your getting tired, this sounds like it was of BTW. I wouldn’t even mind if someone else wrote a song for her, at least I’d have a great song to listen to. Yet again she’s over hyped a basic album for over a year, She is just basic, basic, basic! This time I think she’s well and truly over.

  41. Jonney October 25, 2013

    I think she’s so over it’s her voice from the grave calling for applause .
    A real shame
    For someone who once called the new queen of pop.

  42. FAF October 25, 2013

    Chile y’all talking about 2011 reject more like 2008 this sounds like something from The Fame, like something that was left on the cutting room floor. Nothing about this song sounds good

  43. Umm October 25, 2013

    These basic minded people on this blog! Smh
    Anyway if you didn’t listen it sounds similar to
    Bananarama’s Venus and that song is still played
    til this day.

  44. Mileys movement October 25, 2013

    Wow this has to be worse song yet smh.

  45. HOTSTUFF October 25, 2013

    MUST HEAR: LADY GAG PLAGIARIZE AGAIN : VENUS Rip OFF OMFGGGGGG then she says that she writes song ????? LMAOOOOOOOOO

  46. JOHNVIDAL October 25, 2013

    Well, I need to listent ot the whole song first, but this snippet sounds like the worst song on Artpop from the ones we know. I´m already sold since I love S** Dreams, Do what u want, Artpop and really enjoy Applause for what it is.
    She´s so superior to her peers. That´s obvious.

  47. Queen of Pop Godney October 25, 2013

    Venus comes straight from Gaga’s a***. It stinks.

  48. The Edge of Discounted Bin October 25, 2013

  50. Next ??????? October 25, 2013

    Lady Gaga’s career has long gone and peaked during Bad Romance. Nobody believes her s*** anymore. And this song is just the worst since Judas.

  60. The Real Lady Gaga October 25, 2013

    Each song on ARTPOP was inspired by different types of bowels, so it’s an expression of the various gases.

    I want you to smell them and taste them.

  61. The Fame Is One HIt Wonder Album October 25, 2013

    Her last hit was..err…Poker Face ??? 😀

  62. Navy nick October 25, 2013

    I love how nothing sounds the same or like anything else out., this is going to be an epic album….
