TIHTY doesn't really have a message. If it wasn't labeled 'the rape song' it would just be a regular song. 

It's not like Born This Way where you know it supports homosexuality.  

Putting this song on the radio was just to prepare people for Gagas lead single. Let's not pretend it's anything deeper.  

What is this delusion?

then why is it on sale? a free download would certainly get the message across better

1/2 for the donation, 1/2 because interscope isn't about to release a song by one of their biggest artists for free

Let me translate it. 

"Hey guys this song was popular at the Oscars. It's not really a good radio song and we're not going to pay you to play it but like it's like inspirational and stuff so you should play it."

Or a more accurate translation:

This song was never intended to be a single. It wasn't written in a way to be a radio hit. However, it had such a strong response from The Oscars that we are sending it out in hopes that a few radio stations will play it some, so that others that might respond to a song like this might be exposed to it.

If it gets one extra spin from being sent to radio and changes one person's life, then fantastic.

If it gets many spins on radio, changes many people's lives, is a mild hit, is a decent selling charity single for Gaga, puts her back on the charts, and is another thing to add to her resume, then fantastic.

Why begrudge monsters who like watching charts the chance to watch a Gaga song rise on the charts?  It's exciting; I'm sure they realize what the original point of the song was, so there's no reason to spoil their fun.

I'm talkin' 'bout forever, baby.

That is true, but the message is being sidetracked and people are obviously only caring about the success aspect of this release.

The song has been out for a year though, we already appreciated its message. I don't see anything wrong with Monsters who like tracking how she's doing on the charts, it's exciting and it obviously doesn't disparage its message.

There is nothing wrong with tracking the song I guess, but is the fact that people seem to forgot why is being released in the first place that seems wrong.

Nn how is the message going to spread around then? Because it trended for a few hours on Twitter? Playing it on the radio would get more attention.
