Edge Of Venus 731 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Sorry but Perfect Illusion is a HORRIBLE song. The melodies are so monotonic and annoying. I can NOT believe they picked that mess as the LEAD single for her comeback era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brie Candy 18,642 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 off topic but I really want to see Ruth working with Gaga in a new music video, people used to judge her on Perfect Illusion, but come on, she is such a great director, and that was the purpose of the video, being dat crazy, with adrenaline and energy I do not know why, but I feel that TC vid will be directed by her (with Andrea too) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiona Apple 13,006 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Just now, IndieKylie said: I don't know why I said given a chance. It was given a chance. I more meant by Gaga and her team. Yea it had a radio deal, but it got dumped on playlists and radio after a week after fairly solid first week sales. CTTR had similar sales and got much more radio-love and exposure on Spotify. And, I do think television performances would have helped the song. It sold a fair amount Superbowl weekend just by its use in the promo videos for her halftime show. It would definitely have done better with promotion but I think that Gaga's team dropped the whole promotion schedule because they understood that the GP wasn't here for the song and they started planning for MR I guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddy 4,421 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 -second biggest increase on pop -nearing +2m update on radio -now top 40 on Canadian Pop radios if we keep gaining spins like this we should be in a pretty nice position at the end of the month (if the video is released this month ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BibleThisWay 4,370 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Can someone who knows a lot about radio tell me if Gaga getting a fair bit of audience from Dance and Spanish radio is an indication her team are sending it there? Is The Cure eligible to be sent to Pop, AC, HAC, Rhythmic, Spanish and Dance? What is the likelihood of it being sent to all of those? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to disagree, the song has such a good vibe of free spirit, it makes you wanna move the whole body, it is agresssive in a good way, Gaga showed her passion and vulnerability with an amazing melody IT WASNT LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV IT WASNT LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV IT WASNT A PERFECT ILLUXIAAAAANAH Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to make money in return, too One flop single stinks, but it's not like they lost every dollar they put into CTTR. I mean, it was certified platinum. It sold a substantial number of copies & drove a substantial number of streams and got a substantial amount of radio airplay before the callout reports were released. Granted that sales and streams were never what the label hoped for, but they were propped up by solid radio gains early on. The label is probably losing money, but probably not more than half of what they made on "Dark Horse." It's entirely possible that the label only broke even on CTTR, or even made a small amount of money. We really don't have a good idea of how much money they actually spent. They music video was expensive and the radio promo may have cost a pretty penny, but the Spotify deal was possibly free. There's also general advertising & production... Record labels make almost all of their money off of a tiny handful of huge artists like Katy Perry. They routinely break even on lesser artists, which are basically only promoted on the off-chance that they will BE the next Katy Perry. So, no, I don't think her label is anywhere close to dropping Katy Perry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
