People are suddenly saying it's trash and one of the worst and that's absolutely wrong.

Luc 4,775 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I think both PI and MR aren't destined to be hits. As we saw with PI, iTunes performance or even the moment it stops getting green updates isn't a good indication of single performance. Interscope is obviously testing the waters with this single. Had the single performed better they surely would've officially announced it as second single by now, like with DWUW. MR's consistency is mostly thanks to the timing of the release: - not hyped up delaying fan purchases, giving more longevity though not more sales per se - album pre-order giving sales a little more consistency on charts (negligible effect for now) - thursday release and friday banner causing more longevity - friday new song effect causing more longevity PI and MR's first few days, basically, cannot be compared. One was hyped, had a radio deal and friday release while the other had a thursday release, banner on second day and small fan effect. I think Interscope released MR too soon. They should've waited a week and decided on the second single in the first week after album release. I don't know if MR is strong enough. It's likeable, I guess. Would get decent call-out scores but it's not that trendy. A-Yo, even though I don't like it that much, is by far the catchiest song we've heard. Stuck in my head all day. Possible future single.

MR has way more hit potential than Ayo. Ayo literally sounds like garbage-- A MANiCURE knockoff and MANiCURE isn't even good either. And a week from now there will probably be another promo single. PI was dead so why wait? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like the song either, but if it's catchy Maybe MR could become a decent top 50 hit with longevity, eventually crossing the 200k sales milestone I think I'll just trust Interscope to make the right decision. They probably take all important factors (holidays season, promotion, globalness, catchiness, cross-over appeal, trends, likeability, album-selling power, etc etc) into consideration. They did the right thing by pulling the plug on PI, and they made a decision that can be argued for by making PI lead single. I understand them. It's no Judas, the worst single choice of Gaga's career and it's no Venus, the second worst single choice that almost was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewYorkCity 10,536 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Ok i don't know if someone has said it already here but there is a PI YouTube ad.

I still don't get why didn't they do some TV promo when they clearly aren't giving up on it. Or better say why did they took it off playlists.

Bye 3,947 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Why would you want her to release Ayo because it's catchy? It'd be a typical Gaga move and none of those are working right now. And MR is catchy anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
