Guest Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Except some songs that stand out in the album, it's not her greatest work imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
witchcocktor 1,438 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 No ****, the album can't survive on it's own merits and needs constant promo to stay alive, which there has been minimal amounts of, most likely due to Gaga and her team focusing on SB.

FRANZGA 13,920 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 i'm not saying Joanne is her best work but it's just sad that other people equates quality to commercial success... lemme give you some facts: 1. when you have high expectations, you'll be most likely not satisfied 2. people loves bandwagon, love something when it's the talk of the town.. won't care if it's not in hot talks 3. Joanne album is doing good, streaming is consistent except video.. if there's a flop this era that is singles and videos, album sales is good and lastly performances are one of her best (CK,VSFS and SBHT)..

Stef 61,598 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 To everyone saying the SB will reignite the Joanne era, don't get ur hopes up tbh Just like with literally every single thing Gaga does, the GP will show interest and things will look great for 24 hours, and then Gaga's team doesn't capitalise, they don't see the boost and use it to their advantage, they sit back and watch as the album and single slides back down again, which isn't even surprising. When are they gonna learn that Gaga isn't what she was in 2011 or even 2013. Other artists can afford to take their foot off the promo pedal and gain hits because they have successfully conquered the streaming market. Gaga isn't even close to cracking it, her newest work isn't even cracking 100m streams, which is disastrous. What Gaga needs to do after the SB is hit up a few chat shows like Ellen and Fallon. GMA performance, Today Show etc. Spotify deals and Apple Music deals. (I mean remember the A-Yo commercial, what even came out of that in the end ) But uno, as we all know, SB will come and go, sales will peak after about 24hrs, and Gaga won't be seen again until the tour (I mean of course I don't blame the Haus for all the underperformance, the music on Joanne just isn't easily digestible in the way that the average Spotify listener would hit up their playlist with Sinners Prayer or John Wayne ) Signature loading… 👹🖤 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

misunderstood 8,736 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I wish people weren't so delusional, lol. It's obvious she wasn't going to SLAY the charts. You are blind if you think she still has the capacity to do that. "I'd rather be poor and happy, than rich and alone" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrawberryBlond 14,862 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Just speaking from UK standards, but Joanne's currently on its 12th consecutive week in our charts. AP only lasted on our charts for the first 13 weeks (it may have re-entered later on, can't remember, but I distinctly remember it falling out the charts after week 13). Yeah, AP had bigger first week sales than Joanne, which is probably why it lost steam very fast. But Applause and DWUW (which went top ten here) should have kept it going for longer. Both albums had the same levels of UK promo, I think. Yet, Joanne seems to have more fight left in it and there's still the SB to go. For an album that had no top ten hits, it's doing alright.

Harry 26,836 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Well it's not a surprise. There's no promo happening right now because of SB rehearsals, there are no real hits from the album and therefore minimal radio presence. Why would it be selling in January? This is fine. It will of course be boosted after SB there will hopefully be more appearances to boost it. There are still a lot of shows she hasn't been on yet - Tonight Show, Late Show, Ellen, Today etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel you and I was disappointed many times too (the last time being when I saw the Million Reason video), but I always keep in mind that I love kinda everything she does, I would never be hopeless about Gaga's work, she's just everything I love.

LittleBoot 27 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I don't think Joanne was really engineered to be a big seller anyway. SB may give it a sales bump but I wouldn't expect much. Certainly Gaga's exposure will be good and it will be a great show and experience for her, anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
