Someone Once Said To Me 'If You Have No Shadows Then You're Not Standing In The Light.' So The Song Is About Washing The Feet Of Both Good And Evil And Understanding And Forgiving The Demons From Your Past In Order To Move Into The Greatness Of Your Future. I Just Like Really Aggressive Metaphors—harder Thicker Darker—and My Fans Do As Well. So It Is A Very Challenging And Aggressive Metaphor But It Is A Metaphor." Gaga Further Elaborated On The Inspiration Behind The Song As Walking Towards The Light Force In Her Life And Peering Towards The Devil In The Back While Clutching Onto The Source Of The Light. "I Sing About What A Holy Fool I Am And That Although Moments In My Life Are So Cruel And Relationships Can Be So Cruel I’m Still In Love With Judas.

Popjustice Also Compared It To "Bad Romance" Describing It As "a Highly Evolved Titanium-Plated 'Bad Romance' From The Year 2511 Traveling Half A Millennium Back In Time To Save Music From A Tidal Wave Of 'in The Club'-Obsessed Pop Drivel And That's 'Judas'." Kevin O'Donnel From Spin Felt That The Song Sounded Like A Rowdy Industrial-Disco Banger And Described Gaga's Performance As "insanely Over The Top She Alternates Between Rapping A Robotic Monotone And A Crow-Like Squawk — Before Gliding Into A More Conventional Chorus That Hews Closer To 'Bad Romance'."

It's A Good Twin Evil Twin Thing." Henderson Continued That The Song Conjured The Imagery Of A Disturbing Vision Of Hell And In A Warped Sense The Song Seemed More Forward-Thinking To Him And Less Of A Message "than The 'gay Great' Equation At The Heart Of 'Born This Way'."

Maura Johnston Of The Village Voice Summarized The Song As A Twin Of "Bad Romance" Describing Its "instantly Memorable Wordless Vocalizing A Pummeling Beat Lyrics About A Romance That Is Well Bad." Digital Spy's Robert Copsey Gave The Song Five Out Of Five Stars Commending The "blasphemously Camp" Chorus And Comparing It To Be Worthy Of Eurovision – "a Scooch-Meets-Lordi Affair That Unsurprisingly Takes A Few Listens To Get Your Head Around." Mark Lepage From The Gazette Praised The Song And Understood That As Gaga's Music Has Progressed So Have Her Themes And Inspirations Indicated By The Conflicted Relationship She Has With The Character Judas In The Song.
