Bordeciel 323 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Hi. I first wanted to say congrats to Gaga for her success with the #1 album but more than anything for the quality of Joanne, I just love it. But the purpose of this topic is to understand something : Why MR got so strong on Itunes when it didn't had momentum on Spotify after the carpool karaoke ? Streaming is getting bigger than dowloads, and it's the future of music. Even if I believe in MR and in the album, my only charts wise "worry" is about her lack of streams by now with MR. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to bring useless meltdowns, I just want to put the finger on the only thing that could be asked about MR future's success, and I sure want it to smash ! And for those that say "she's never been a streaming force", well I hope she will knowing the growth of streaming. Voilà ! Don't hate me for this topic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic 49,376 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 It's because young people stream, and Gaga is not popular with pre-teens and children. Older people still BUY their music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsterious 26,867 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Because Gaga is not a streaming machine yet, she barely got one hit in the streaming era so she is struggling to recover, if she gets 1 or 2 hits her numbers are going to be so much bigger Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdX 2,862 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Well, I think that MR is not a song you listen to all the time. Streaming is more meant for that, I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that a real question to ask. I'm so happy about the song being in the Top 10 *Itunes * but I'm just wondering why it didn't broke the *Spotify* top 50.

I figured young people would also have seen Gaga's CK and streamed the songs. I have a hard time believing that pre-teens and teenagers watch this unless it goes super viral like the ones by Justin Bieber or Adele. So far, it's like people between 25-40 responding the the most the Gaga rn. Ever since she entred the music scene, a new generation has emerged. The post millenials. And they're even more fickle than us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Evans 8,917 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 tbh now that streaming is involved w/ the charts it's going to be hard for her to have a hit when others (whether they're paid for or not) get millions of streams per week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When people disagree with you, you tend to end the discussion? What kind of a narcissistic world you live in? I didn't ask for a free ride, I only asked you to show me a real good time.
