Tropico 4,145 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 g.u.y is actually really really catchy SONG who ever heard it liked it the real reason why it flopped was lack of promo ok u may say expensive vid but if you dont hear the song in the radio it simply wont take off...my friends listened to it and EVERYONE liked it so the music is not the problem with artpop problem is messed up promo (did gaga even gave a chance to g.u.y? ) venus and dope got more promo than g.u.y venus was 32 dope 8 (oh AND ARIANA COULD NEVER PULL OF G.U.Y ) BUY ultraviolence on itunes ♢ Social Justice Enthusiast ♢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo 4,293 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 You can say "there was no promo," and yeah, maybe more promo would've helped. But, most songs at the top of the charts aren't songs that I've seen ten live TV performances of. Is it only Gaga that has to do promo? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djBuffoon 12,120 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 GUY is a song that only Gaga would think of, let alone get away with. The main problem seems to be the lack of promo. If she had hit the ground running when the video dropped, who knows what could've happened. But the track and the video are quintessential Gaga.

But no one has a problem with Ed Sheeran or Beyoncé the way that they do with Gaga. She's extremely divisive, and there are people who just won't listen to anything with her name on it, let alone request or stream it. So yes, promo couldn't have hurt.

SpadesToStart 3,460 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 G.U.Y. would be a hit if radio hadn't decided to shun Gaga. So I guess yes, if in some strange universe G.U.Y was Arianna's song, it would be a hit because she's hot right now so the song would be guaranteed airplay.

Computer 10,973 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 No one else but Gaga could even sing GUY with a straight face let alone turn it into a hit. Gaga was already called a hermaphrodite so people simply don't care but can you imagine Ariana singing about wanting to be a GUY and getting away with it? I can't. She has the most girlish image of anyone. Doesn't fit at all. 💚💛💕❣⭕💢💢 | ⓜⓔⓡⓡⓨ ©ⓗⓡⓘⓢⓣⓜⓐⓢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemo 4,293 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 "No.. its just not made for radio" The classic little monster defense...It's what the DJs were telling people who called in to request it. I mean, personally I don't agree at all; I think it makes no sense. But it's what they said. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DontDoubtDavid 1,191 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Not at all. GUY is not Ariana's style at all. I just don't think the song is that radio friendly, I guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaDragon 10 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Ariana doesn't have the necessary qualities to sing songs like Gaga does. She will always be basic and only popular because she is insanely pretty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
