Quark 7,018 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 o<(0_0)>o As many of you already now, PI is not doing very well commercially. The song is expected to do 13K on its second week. This week's video might help its success, but in general the GP or radio don't seem to be embracing it. I personally think PI is a great song and I listen to it all the time. But PI was always a gamble. From the very beginning you could tell that PI was unlike anything that is currently trendy or popular. So it was obvious that Gaga did not even try to look for a "hot track" as she says. It simply seems like both her and Interscope are really not looking for big success this era and thy are just doing whatever they want. Anyways, PI could have gone either way, but it seems like the GP or radio won't embrace it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio Ga Ga 5,553 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I'm still hoping for hey girl to resurrect the era in terms of commercial success, but I'll be happy with new music even if it's a quarter on par with born this way or ARTPOP's quality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine Prince 96,295 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Oh, well. A lot of music I like didn't chart well or "flopped" A popular example would be Zayn. I love his debut solo album but it technically "flopped" and it only produced a moderate hit, Pillowtalk. Still like it more than a lot that's on the radio or topping the charts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gohan 15,165 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 It could either be a slow #1 hit (never forget Just Dance, little managers) or just be a good top 20/10 hit. It takes time. Nobody is #1 all of a sudden, especially when the main genre is... frat bros tryna go ask Alice, tryna catch that rabbit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wixson 4,900 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Here you go once again making a thread about the radio not supporting it - I wouldn't have a problem with it if it wasn't a lie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only heard the song 2 times on the radio. And the radio might stop playing it if they don't see many people streaming it or buying it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
flopheart 1,865 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 It looks like they totally gave up, that's sad. Where's the girl who claimed "i'm gonna change the world"? I'm so pissed off, not for the song which i love but for the lack of promo, that's not her, what about the music video which will be a live performance? call me dramatic but this is all so tragic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Just give it some time. It still has potential to become a moderate hit, since it's doing okay on radio. What I am really excited to see is whether they are going to rush release another single and label PI as a promotional single or just leave it at that.

I dont think she'd decommission it as the lead single but she might release a 2nd one quicker than planned if the album has  any tracks that appeal to current trends Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorothy Gale 7,575 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I'm over Perfect Illusion. At least over discussing it's chart position, I'm ready for something more interesting to talk about on gagadaily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinzo 9,618 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 PI won't be a radio hit.... I don't know what happened  how intercope,  Mark and everyone involved let this happen? I really hope the the rest of the album is good,  I don't care about commercial success anymore, I just want good music not screams, please gaga Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtGagaPop 61,940 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 it took me about 20 listens to really love the song so i understand if people don't run to their itunes/spotify to stream it if they hear it at radio once. But if radio keeps supporting it i think it might be a big hit in the end with some promo and the music video. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
