C List? That's BS. She came and did the breakfast show for a large chunk of the show and they give her C list?

Whatever. Hope it moves up next week. 

Yes but getting R1 and Capital support is crucial for a song in the UK to keep selling. Without it there's virtually no chance but with it the song has a shot. 

Looked at the A-list and haven't heard of half of the songs.  Don't worry, Ariana Grande and Sia are also in the C-List.

I just can't believe she is #26 on iTunes. I really thought co hosting the breakfast show would have had the same impact as it did for Adele, she premiered Hello on the breakfast show and the rest is history.

Makes me wonder if it's not testing well on radio there-- Since they do like her, doubt it's a snub.

She was added to Capitals playlist officially as well which will be helpful.

Yes who knows. They definitely do like her so it's bizarre.. I guess we'll just wait and see

New playlist doesn't come into effect until Monday so I suppose it'll continue to fall over the weekend and hopefully pick up mid-week sometime if these R1 and Capital spins help.

Completely non-sensical to compare it to Adele or have the same expectations. Adele would've done the same numbers if she just premiered it online... I completely promise you that was not the impact of Radio 1.

And Hello by Adele was not left field in the slightest.  Like Sia with The Greatest, it's safe territory.

Mess, i haven't heard PI played over here. They announced that Lady Gaga was coming up on the radio when i was on my way to work, got me so hyped up until Paparazzi came on

I don't know but I heard radio stations play some of Gagas old hits.maybe GP dont want or stations dont like the song ? I dont know.Time will tell.Maybe MV will change things?

btw I really want Gaga to be successfull.Maybe music not the bling thing but it makes me happy to see her better than other singers,at the top where she belongs.Not only monsters but all GP to listen her.Adele made it to top and didnt even need lots of interviews etc. is she better than Gaga ? No. its sad.
