Kinda loved the song. It takes us to really raw 80s glam rock/pop territory, and the raw sounding vocals kind of reinforces that. It's always nice to see that she doesn't need to resort to over the top artifice to slay. Can't wait to listen to the rest of the album.

Me too! I still hope she'll release EDM-ish songs but I love the atmosphere in million reasons!

I like this direction. But it's such a huge difference from Perfect Illusion. I wonder how much variety there'll be.

Have loved both songs so far (Million Reasons, Perfect Illusion) and really enjoying the raw quality of her vocals. Can't wait for the rest of the album to drop.

I heard the leaked previews. Looking forward to Diamond Heart a lot.

There's no EDM on the album. All very...Americana, Country..you get the idea.

I liked Million Reasons, another breath of fresh air for me. This is the first time in a while that her songs don't annoy me.
I would be a little surprised if there wasn't at least ONE queen edm pop song. I don't think her fans could handle that. They are all about diva danceable songs from Gaga.

^ Can't find them, however if this is true and there is no single EDM song, i can't say i'm not upset. She had us waiting for three years only to release some kind of obscure album no one except her hardcore fanbase is gonna listen to : queen of killing her legacy.

Million Reasons is not that special, but it is a million times better than Perfect Illusion imo.

I enjoyed Million Reasons more than Perfect Illusion, but still, none of the tracks I heard until now impressed me.

I like it, this album like the past albums have his own music style but I don't think is country, is rock style and old american sound.

I lost my excitement towards the new album after the obsession with Perfect Illusion died. Million Reasons was beautiful, but I wasn't a huge fan of it. I listened to it just once and then let it be. I haven't even pre-ordered the album which is what I did with both BTW and ARTPOP because I was so excited lol. I seriously need to listen this album through first before I can decide that it's worth to buy. I'm glad Spotify exists~ <3

Really love Diamond Heart, John Wayne and Angel Down. Joanne really tugs at your heartstrings from time to time.

too much dislike for this album but oh well..its still some music

^i don't think you can compare it to made in Japan; many of us reacted positively to that release because it felt like a return to form (at least FLOWER, Mad World, and Breakdown down did). The fact that Lady Gaga did NOT return to form for this album is what's disappointing.
