1) You can't compare MR to A-yo Because MR was actually SUCCESSFUL! which is why Gaga chose it as the second single and not A-yo. Correct right?

2) If you want to be technical funky pop has not been a recurrent trend since 2014 with "uptown funk" so who is to say  DIC won't get good radio 

3) tropical house is still going strong today. 

1) exactly, MR was successful and did a little bit less than A-Yo on debut week, shows potential sis

2) 24k Magic exists, also Calvin Harris's new song with Ariana Grande, and Redbone by Childish Gambino

3) 2.5 in the US top 40

The point is GAGA chose MR over A-YO because it was doing much BETTER. That is what you are failing to realize a-yo charted below the top 50 for one week while million reasons kept re-entering the chart even though radio was not playing it, so like I said earlier you CANNOT compare the success of million reasons with a-yo. I am the only lady gaga fan in my friend group and DIC is the ONLY song my friends liked from the album. I am not saying A-yo is a bad song, but it is not made for radio at all. the vocal production on it is not the best.

If she plays her cards right both can become moderate "hits"  

As long as she doesn't release Sinner's Prayer, Diamond Heart or GG we're gonna be fine.

That been said #JusticeForJustAnotherSlay

Obviously MR was the right choice but it wasn't reentering because it wasn't a single sis, it probably would have as the single, just not as much and not as high. Btw, telling me your Gaga stan friends like DIC does not make it a good choice, Gaga stans also thought GUY was the perfect single and Scheisse would smash. Anyways, I'm done arguing, I've made my points and they stand true.

Obviously you are biased with your opinions but let's not be delusional by saying a-yo would of or could smash at the end of the day it is not made for radio.

do you know anything about Gaga's career? the reason songs like JD and PF sound radio-friendly now is because she revolutionized the electropop genre, you did not hear music like that on the radio before Gaga.

Anyways, it's very possible for MR to end up outselling DWUW which is really impressive considering the sales decline between 2013 and now and MR's treatment from radio.
