DiscoHeaven23 35,007 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I've seen some negative things on here about PI, honestly more on here than anywhere else on the internet. - How people don't like it - How its sales are beginning to decline But I just wanted to let you guys realize that MANY popular artists have had lead singles underperform and then have had AMAZING second/third single success and eras. Therefore, the success of this song is not mutually exclusive to the success of Gaga's career. Let's take a look: Christina Aguilera - Stripped Lead Single: Dirrty (peak position: #48) Second Single: Beautiful (peak position: #2) Britney Spears - In The Zone Lead Single: Me Against The Music (peak position: #35) Second Single: Toxic (peak position: #9) Mariah Carey - The Emancipation of Mimi Lead Single: It's Like That (peak position: #16) Second Single: We Belong Together (peak position: #1) Gwen Stefani - Love.Angel.Music.Baby Lead Single: What You Waiting For (peak position: #47) Second Single: Rich Girl (peak position: #7) Madonna - Madonna Lead Single: Holiday (peak position: #16) Second Single: Lucky Star (peak position: #4) Justin Timberlake - Justified Lead Single: Like I Love You (peak position: #11) Second Single: Cry Me A River (peak position: #3) Rihanna's Rated R era Lead Single: Russian Roulette (2009/2010) *1 week in Top 10* 1st Week: #100 2nd Week: #75 3rd Week: #9 - PEAK POSITION 4th Week: #16 5th Week: #19 6th Week: #22 7th Week: #30 8th Week: #44 9th Week: #53 10th Week: #43 11th Week: #59 12th Week: #76 13th Week: #90 14th Week: #100 (knocked out) and then Rude Boy went #1 And even Beyonce experienced this with B'Day: First single: Deja Vu 1st Week: #44 2nd Week: #37 3rd Week: #33 4th Week: #34 5th Week: #30 6th Week: #32 7th Week: #4 - PEAK POSITION 8th Week: #6 9th Week: #12 10th Week: #15 11th Week: #22 12th Week: #29 13th Week: #31 14th Week: #42 15th Week: #57 16th Week: #82 17th Week: #99 (knocked out) and then Ring the Alarm came out and did worse. And then Irreplaceable come and ROCKETED to #1. BUT PERFECT ILLUSION IS STILL SLAYING SO WERE NOT EVEN AT THAT STEP YET. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computer 10,973 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I already can't wait for 2nd single! 💚💛💕❣⭕💢💢 | ⓜⓔⓡⓡⓨ ©ⓗⓡⓘⓢⓣⓜⓐⓢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtGagaPop 61,940 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Yeah ofc if the first one doesn't do well 2rd, 3rd or even 4th can. But it's been 1 day guys so we have no idea if PI will be a big hit or not yet. It looks more promising then it did with applause atleast. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boobtank 9,090 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 It's going to be a smash hit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
donutellha 13,819 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Thank you for all this solid receipts! And we've barely had this single for a good day and a half so let's stop being impatient! Always remember PF was a sleeper hit girls Walk down the runway but don't puke, it's okay. You just had 10 donuts today. Without frosting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout19 11,802 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Gaga is in love with what she have done. I think LG5 is about ”don't care if the song is #1 , I want to be proud of my work ” i'm a powerpuff girl. ○● Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
flopheart 1,865 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Let's be honest, Gaga to maintain her SUPER STAR state NEEDS a commercial success since she hasn't a real one since 2011 i guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
malazam 15,710 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 She's so happy, didn't y'all see how happy she was yesterday??!! and then the Little Delusionals come and say **** about it bc they only want the same thing over and over, they are still waiting for music like TFM, just go away and listen to a basic. Anyway, I don't think we can use these examples, music industry is very different now, you seriously can't know what song is going to be smash anymore.... another shot before we kiss the other side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's doing this and creating new music because she wants to. If she was really desperate to maintain her "super star" status, then she would have released an album a long time ago, and probably wouldn't have released C2C. She has more than enough money to maintain a living, she just wants to create new and exciting music. 🦠🧙♀️🥀📸🎉👻🕺🧟💊💖☎️🔪👤🐺🌱🌎 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creyk 17,805 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 PI can still turn into a hit. It's a question whether radio will get on board because so far it doesn't seem like it but that could change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think that's because only iHeartRadio stations have it until Monday, then every other radio station will have it, and I'm hoping Bobby and Gaga have hooked them too, not just iHeartRadio. But we shall see in the coming week! I honestly think it'll do pretty well, I mean it shot to number 1 on iTunes, and number 2 isn't even bad either. The audio on YouTube keeps climbing very quickly too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAMROD 109,347 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Ya, despite of all bitching here, just believe that she don't care with any of them, she said it on radio interview yesterday implicitly. "I'd like to stay in contact with the fans and I wanna see how they're doing, and enjoying the music and pick up on.little artistic nuances.., but I'm just in different place in my life, I don't allow things that are negative to run everything. I think it's important yo just to try to stay grounded in who you are and the things that come your way, just be grateful for them." In short, she was trying to say "IDGAF if you hate it, this is my art! Try to be respectful and grateful about it, please!"
