Radios in UK also still play it. Flyin' like a 1000 Doves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy Almost every Top 40 song now has payola. Throw that money in, power rotation for weeks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think The Cure could have done fine on US radio with promotion (it definitely did not bomb for a song with none at all). The song did quite well for a song with no promotion (especially by securing her a moderate hit in places MR didn't impact). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJWS is alright but he can't make a hit. I also don't even think she knows what a hit sounds like these days. She said herself that every song on ARTPOP was meant to be a hit, and if she truly thought that, then she has no idea what a hit is. I hope she proves me wrong though! i'd take everything she said about ARTPOP as tongue in cheek, i seriously doubt she believed every track was a hit https://goo.gl/xMgMvJ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certain radio stations here still play it too, but it did not chart as high as it should have. That's not super relevant to my point though. I believe if The Cure was released when PI was, as the lead of the LG5 era, it would have charted Top 10 easily and could have reached high levels of impact. 6 minutes ago, RochestrMonstr said: I think The Cure could have done fine on US radio with promotion (it definitely did not bomb for a song with none at all).

I agree it did fine for what it was, but it was not a world-wide hit, and it underperformed for what it should have been able to do, largely because of the PI mess. 🤖⚡️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark 7,016 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Is it possible? Yes Is it likely? No. I am saying it's unlikely not because I think Gaga can't make a hit anymore, because she easily can. But because she gravitates towards weird unique concepts and sounds that are not always trendy. She is very fearless with her ideas and she's not afraid of flopping. I personally like this about her but it makes it hard to have hits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yelir 573 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 The thing with gaga is that it's not that she's incapable of having a worldwide hit, it's that she doesn't want to have one it seems. She's super talented, she's super powerful, she has access to the best people in the industry - if she wanted a huge hit - and I hope that is coming next - She would have one. Yet she only wants to do things her way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Lovegood 16,827 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 She’s not someone that’s gonna follow trends and tends to do her own gig and as we all know the gp are into edm music .. she’s a trendsetter. If the GP coincidentally likes what she’s gonna do for LG6, then it’s gonna be a global hit like what had happened with The Fame / Fame Monster. It’s just happen that during the fame era GP are into Gaga music luna’s advocate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatfoxyfeeling 11,861 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Reputation is the most popular pop album since, well, 1989. Compare those albums to TFM, BTW and ARTPOP and you can see how much the world needs PopGa back. You can't tell me she doesn't miss TFM/BTW days.
