Valentino 4 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Gaga has never had as much AI as the songs that have gotten #1 this year. I just don't think AI is the best medium to measure popularity. Digital sales is... I think it should be reworked a little bit because it's tipping too far on the opposite direction. Oh, but I thought AI didn't count as much. I know AI counts for more now with this new rule than it did before, but does it matter that much? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know AI counts for more now with this new rule than it did before, but does it matter that much? From my observation it totally does. I asked Magoo and said basically the same thing.

It's so dumb that they make radio count more. Whatever I hope Gaga makes her single from this album mroe commercial so they'll be played on the radio. I know she will. She's a business woman. She knows what's best :cool: Who here wants Gaga to ditch dance/pop after the next album? I do! inb4****storm God no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentino 4 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 From my observation it totally does. I asked Magoo and said basically the same thing.

Valentino 4 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 It did solve a problem, but it just created another :P If the lead single is worthy of #1 (sonically and lyrically), Gaga will debut #1 and slay for weeks, so on we go! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjork 1 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 God no. I mean, I don't want her to ditch it, but try out more genres. Get what I'm saying? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klou 2,365 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 top 10 debut. with the new rules i doubt it will debut at #1 If the song is good, it gets decent first week airplsy, is released to streaming, and is released on a Monday then a #1 is almost guaranteed. I just don't want people to be completely surprised if it doesn't debut at #1. I think it will, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I don't want her to ditch it, but try out more genres. Get what I'm saying? I know, but for at least 6 songs on the album she should stay dancy, fun, and catchy so she can save those for singles. She can experiment with the rest like she did with BTW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad 32 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 A #1 debut is possible if they put it up on streaming sites at the same time as the iTunes release. Boyfriend had almost no streaming points which caused it to miss #1. Plus I doubt something like We Are Young would dominate like that again.I'm really curious to see what Gaga's numbers will be like next era. I feel like her popularity has decreased a lot, at least in North America. :ohno: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Americano 31,061 Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 She'll have a radio deal. I'm really curious to see what Gaga's numbers will be like next era. I feel like her popularity has decreased a lot, at least in North America. Worldwide definitely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
