New Review/Genre Change[edit]

Under The Gun have given a positive review of 'Dope', which I believe should be added: http://www.underthegunreview.net/2013/11/03/lady-gaga-debuts-dope/

Furthermore, reading the current reviews, I see that Slant Magazine refers to Dope as an electro-rock song. Should we add that to its genre? The quote reads "a rue-soaked, electro-rock lament about substance abuse and lost love." The review can be read here: http://www.slantmagazine.com/house/2013/02/track-review-lady-gaga-dope

Thank you!--86.142.211.85 (talk) 13:24, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Name change[edit]

The article does a good job at pointing out the song's title change, including Gaga's performance under the previous name at the iTunes Festival. However, it might be worth noting that, at least according to the Artpop track listing, there are bonus tracks under the name "I Wanna Be with You (Dope)". --Another Believer _(Talk) 20:12, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What bonus tracks are you referring to? I don't understand. — Status (talk · contribs) 20:32, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

See the bonus tracks for the International deluxe and Japanese deluxe editions of the album at the Artpop article. --Another Believer _(Talk) 20:46, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, you're referring to the DVD. Well, the performance was of the original version, and I assume they just added "Dope" to it for better understanding. Maybe "originally known as" or something like that could be added to the lead. — Status (talk · contribs) 23:18, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
