New Music: Lady Gaga's "Applause"!!!!!!!!!!

So over the weekend Lady Gaga's highly anticipated new single "Applause" started leaking (as did the demo for "Aura"/"Burqa"). 10 seconds here, 15 there, etc. Last night was literally one of the most stressful nights of my life. I was up till 3 AM waiting to see if the whole thing would leak (it didn't. I cried.). BUT, Gaga got the best of the leakers and declared a 9-1-1 Pop Emergency and its being released today! It will be available on iTunes tonight along with the pre-order for the app! Now lets get into the music shall we?

"Applause" is a heaven sent gift, especially after being let down by "Brave" "Roar" (SORRY BUT I KNOW SHE CAN DO BETTER OKAY?). But first, as Gaga instructed, put a pair of headphones on to listen. Now get ready to be transcended. "Applause" plays like a fun 80's/90's track. The vocals range from a bouncy throat to killer shouts. Lyrically, a little goofy and artsy (ARTPOP DUH). "Applause" even contains SPELLING which automatically makes it perfect.

So at 11 tonight, you need to: put your hands up, make them touch, and then right after, make sure you pick up "Applause" and send the queen back to number. ARTPOP is here, y'all.
