Jjang 2,262 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 *Break Free's sales are 1.550.000 & will probably end up at 1.8M-2M when its all said and done. *It isn't a bigger hit than we give it credit for, it is what it is. *Now if you want to put things into consideration and discuss how it had the potential to be a bigger hit, then sure, but that's already a totally different topic.

GagaUnderYou 4,981 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Do what u want is a hit it could have been bigger than Bad Romance with proper promo and a video Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturo 40,746 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Judging from this thread and from what I've read and seen elsewhere, DWUW was pretty big around the entire world. So maybe it was just your place that is a flop Judging from numbers alone, it was a hit in the U.S, U.K, Mexico, and most of continental Europe. Meanwhile it was huge in Canada and Scandinavia. It only really flopped in Oceania but so did everything else ARTPOP-related. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladey Gagz 2,512 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Judging from this thread and from what I've read and seen elsewhere, DWUW was pretty big around the entire world. So maybe it was just your place that is a flop And as for Anaconda, it had a bunch of controversy around its video and became huge cause of its vid, so that is probably why it sold as much as it did Fair enough Actually I have heard Xtina's version pretty often One of the rare people on GGD who gives legit points So yes, DWUW is bigger than we (me) gave credit for Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDD in December had it at 1.3m http://www.hitsdailydouble.com/news/newsPage.cgi?news10228m01 I don't know where another 250,000 came from considering it's #80 on iTunes rn but some receipts would be nice since I only used the above as a source and could definitely be wrong :P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Envi 765 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 i can't believe that ARTPOP underpormance is mainly due to poor management. I can't at that fact that Interscope let this happen to one of their biggest money-maker ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XoXoJoanneGaga 629 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 It did well, it just could have been so much bigger. It was her most appealing single since Alejandro or even Telephone. First time I heard straight people talk about her in years lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturo 40,746 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 idk. the song is an R&B which is very popular in U.S. it's a feature, has a Beats commercial and released when hype for ARTPOP is still high.. it has some decent promo but it it is huge failure for gaga's standards. A Beats commercial that was played for a week hardly even counts. That commercial was nonexistent in the U.S after DWUW's initial release, unlike Applause's commercial which still made frequent appearances in early 2014.

touchmetouchme 0 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 DWUW is really a masterpiece. I don't even think Beyoncé can do justice like Gaga did on that song. (No I'm not saying that because I love Gags) it's the truth! And she topped it off with that BEAUTIFUL remix with Rock Ross :legend: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(for the past few weeks all estimates were nearly perfect). I use this as a source http://kworb.net/cc/ According to that, Break Free will be around 1,540,000 next week.

Gagaloo911 12,959 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Judging from numbers alone, it was a hit in the U.S, U.K, Mexico, and most of continental Europe. Meanwhile it was huge in Canada and Scandinavia. It only really flopped in Oceania but so did everything else ARTPOP-related. What are its sales WW anyway (without the US sales I mean) And yea, damn Australia/Oceania leaving her Fair enough Actually I have heard Xtina's version pretty often One of the rare people on GGD who gives legit points So yes, DWUW is bigger than we (me) gave credit for That was actually the version I never heard, except for when I played it :emo: Well I guess not really, it had two remixes and they only played the original here. But yes, I try. At least when I'm trying to prove a point anyway haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vernier 3,786 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 The lack of video and messiness of the era clouded people's opinions on it Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bio 23,538 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 If it had a video (not that disgusting rape one tho) it would definetly peak at the top 5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
