Never watched a song reaction like this. Loved it!
Thanks!!!
Thanks for noticing phantom of the opera reference, not enough people talk about it and I love it!
True and OG fans of her know she loves POTO and musical theater in general.
love this reaction - - you're energy, enthusiasm, expertise and enjoyment is excellent!!!
Thank you 🤩
It's cool how the chorus sounds gibberish but actually has a meaning: "The magical words “amor” and “morta” stem from Latin and mean “love” and “death” respectively which is also revealed in the last line. Additionally, “amor” is “roma” backwards, linking back to the “spells” in Bad Romance, if you will." -Genius 😄
😱
Its how it’s written in Portuguese, though “morta” means “dead” and not death.
If it were “death” in Latin, it would spell “mortem”.
Love this break down. 🎉
Thank you 🤩
love the way you dissected every line and melody one by one
🤩
11:16 I can explain those “silly words” a little: amor, morta are words of Latin descent meaning love, death; hence “in her tongue she said death or love tonight”.
If you want another Gaga song that’s full of hooks you have to react to her song Venus. Abracadabra reminded me a lot of that song in that it also has a lot of distinct sections with many hooks.
I put it on the list
I just started my journey to learning about music and reactions like these are really helpful!
It‘s good to be of use 🤩
Thanks for dissecting the chords. Thats how I learn piano from most people. I have never taken a single music lesson in my life
I give songwriting lessons 😜
thank you for the video
Thank you for the friendly comment :)
Great breakdown thank you!!!
Thank you 🤩
Love the analysis! Do more Gaga please!
Thanks. I will 🤩
07:50 I knew I heard that melody before!!! 😅
Suggestion: Could you do a breakdown of Disease (Official Music Video) AND Disease (The Poison Live)? I'd love to hear about the ways the versions are similar/different.
Please react to Disease the first single of the album. Great reaction. ❤❤❤

Why the F you lying
"I don't know if that is the chorus or the prechorus" he said on hook 1 of 4 😏
But I agree, they're all catchy enough to be the chorus in their own right and different enough to make the contrasting sections explode out of each other with each transition. It's like she took 4 hit songs and smashed them together.
To me it tells you everything you need to know about the song that you have a post-chorus that good, and yet you can't even play it through all the way a second time without interrupting it to launch the bridge half a bar early 😂
Yes!!!
It’s got that driving bass kick that turns my vehicle system into a seat massage.
Dorian 🤔.
Yes! Major 6, Baby!
That was so interesting to watch. Can you react to Disease by Lady Gaga?
