Watch the official audio for 'Venus':
|
-it was planned to be the second official single at first
-the plans about 'Venus' being a single changed after 'Do What U Want' went #1 in many countries and Interscope decided to make that one the next single and this one a promotional single -the track was previewed on VEVO on 27.10.2013 -Gaga performed an acoustic version (on a guitar) and the first part of the song on the X-Factor -the song went #1 in 55 countries |
Even planned to be the second single (said that Gaga wanted it to be even the first single, but the label wouldn't let her) Gaga's probably best song off 'ARTPOP' (as we've heard it so far) and called "Better than 'Bad Romance'" by many fans, 'Venus' was released as the first promotional single for the album. Gaga debuted it in a gay nightclub in London and on the 27th it was put on VEVO. The same day the star did a performance of the song, along with performing 'Do What U Want' on the X-Factor UK. The song was available for purchase on the 28th on 12:01 AM (local time) as it has went #1 in over 55 countries so far and still rising. Let's hope it doesn't fall off the charts like 'Do What U Want' (which had no promotion) this time, so support it by buying and gifting a copy on the link on the right.
