Where would Do What U Want have peaked if it was performed at the YMA?

[Electric Venus 484]

why couldn't it be performed?

[DrewStevens 5,249]

Maybe top 5 or #6 because it had radio airplay and some itunes sales.

[KingOfSpain 10,010]

It was top 3 in Canada  :) so I voted top 3 too 

 

The video was going to be so polemic, so I guess the streaming points would have pushed it so much higher!  :popcorn:

Definitely top 10. And have she released DWUW on iTunes and on radio in the same week as the YMA's, without all the other promo singles, it could have gone to top 5.

#1 :woot:

She sang Dope instead

[Optimus 298]

Dope reached top 10 because it there was a deal with Youtube to promote the performance IIRC. This is the only reason why Dope peaked inside top 10. If the deal was for DWUW, top 5 for sure

I'm sure the deal would've been for DWUW

No she should've released DWUW, the week before the show because then instead of taking a massive decline from 13 to the 60s, it would've risen to 8 at least.

Top 5, probably eventually higher than Applause. It definitely would've given it the push it needed to smash.

It's all water under the bridge now. It did well, and everyone loved it. Just because it didn't crack the Top 20 doesn't mean it flopped.

What? It peaked at #13 :smh:

[Psychedelic 1,098]

top 5 probably

[Slade 2,591]

What? It peaked at #13

Typo, I meant Top 10*

A massive decline would have been prevented because the idea I've said was for her to release DWUW as an official single on the same week as the YMA's. By putting a strong first-week sales alongside with a decent first-week airplay AND the massive streaming it could have gotten from the YMA's, a top ten debut is surely locked, and a top five entry is more than likely.

It would've still taken the big second week decline, it just would've debuted higher

Does it really matter? It'll always be number one in our hearts
