PopBitch 1,218 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Well thats if they threw a lot into the Gypsy campaign, odds are if there is a 4th single be it Gypsy or whatever, logically in looking at the response to the previous 2 singles, they're not going to throw money into it to the point that they'll lose profit. I don't even think its about her being pretentious. She was always pretentious. What it was about was her drastically altering her approach and getting back down to the heart. But imo ARTPOP came off very self conscious, she has been very vocal about how affected she has been by the media lashings and peoples negative perceptions of her and that came through in her concepts for the era as well as in the music. People had gotten tired of her but that couldve been turned around and probably still can as pop consumers are incredibly fickle. She just has to commit to a CLEAR and FOCUSED concept. ARTPOP to me was all about her second guessing her worth both creatively and business wise. It was so open ended. Good points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopBitch 1,218 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 People dont but radio stations do! They wont play another single after her biggest flop ever. She could release Bad Romance right now, and it would flop like G.U.Y.. The only artist that can release singles after singles and still getting played heavily is Katy Perry, but we all know she uses payola all the time, so its a different story. I never thought GUY was the best single. It kind of sounded like a mix of her old songs and great song to listen to but I never replayed and replayed it like some of her other songs. Although, the music video was amazing and I thought would push it through as a hit single. Seeing it live on stage really makes the song better and I like it more now. Of course, that's not unusual for Gaga. Live she elevates her songs. Still, I never thought that was the right single, but maybe you're right. Maybe it wouldn't matter what the single choice was. The outcome would be the same. But 43 million hits on the long-form video is nothing to sneeze at. But listening to ARTPOP as the intro, ARTPOP is the song to choose for a single next and doesn't sound like anything else she's ever done; whereas GUY sounded a little like a really good retread in some parts of the song. Still it should have done better than it did as a single. ARTPOP just sucks you in from the beginning and might have a chance and is pure EDM. Gypsy is moving, but it has the same sound as Edge of Glory, that '80s rock power ballad delivery in places. . Edge of Glory worked, but it's three years later. It's just hard to decipher whether that's what radio wants now from her.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emvee 8,332 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I see a lot of overthinking in this thread lol. It comes down to music. It comes down to what sounds fresh. None of the singles were that fresh sounding tbh. Not even Gypsy. But I think it's funny how most fans are ready to give up because of charts. So what if Gypsy flops? At least we'd get a video and some performances. At least we'd get to see the visuals that go a long with the song. If interscope saw a demand from her core audience, they'd probably consider it, but all we have here is a bunch of fans who don't want another single? The game is over once even hardcore fans just want to move on. We're supposed to be the driving force, but instead everyone is giving up without a fight. Because of charts. You're all so jaded. Because of charts. Poor Gaga. She has such an impressionable fan base. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
E24187 614 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 GUY flopped because they focused on the tour. Not saying that was a bad decision, but the only real effort put into it was the video. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryhanna 3,507 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Hope so. Just Gypsy, then they can end the era or do whatever but PLEEEEEASE release Gypsy just for the sake of it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadesOfCool 1 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 She should come with ACT II and make promo for it, I am sure that we will get ACT II because she sang PARTYNAUSEOUS and SIre at artRAVE. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChvVolk 2,289 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I would love to see a video for Gypsy I honestly do not care at all about the charts, never have. The way the fanbase or world revolves around what's good or not doesn't affect how I feel about the song. I don't need her to have a #1 just so I can go and brag about it to people who said negative things about her I've always been here for the music, I care about how the music makes ME feel I'm totally here for Gypsy as a single Everyone needs to stop thinking they know what's best for her Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Laurent 4,862 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 They aren't gonna waste millions more with a video and all that ****, when G.U.Y didn't really get them any profit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jee Yew Whai 1 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Gaga is NOT going to focus on C2C. The odds of it spinning any successful singles are low. Really, really low. The lead will probably chart, but not for very long. A few months after the release of C2C, she could release a lead single without any bumps. C2C shouldn't affect the next album at all inb4 it does better than ARTPOP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game is over when the artist moves on, and she did, immediately after she shot the video She gave up on it, but we know it's not because of how busy she is because she has the time to post 98394839 photos about Asia per week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Primavera 13 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 It would be cool if she released a tour video for Gypsy, something like Rihanna did for Cheers.... But, I don't think that will happen, so don't get your hopes up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monketsharona 80,029 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Why beating a dead horse? I think she's gonna focus on Cheek to Cheek Don't expect her to top charts with any CtC singles ;) Her next top single may be her lead single from Act 2 or her next album; Gypsy can be a decent single as well !

mcphee 1,790 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 ARTPOP is over, single wise, for good imo There is no demand for new singles therefore no real need to release idk after G.U.Y. it seems best to leave anymore singles till her next album or cheek to cheek Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because she's not promoting doesn't mean she wants to move on from ARTPOP. You don't know what's happening behind the scenes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
