Yeah, I'm sure it's the best video ever released in Oblivia. PI is on TEOG level, and MR... well, that needs a new definition. JW was a step in the good direction but even that was a bit messy

 

OT Now Spotify needs to catch up, radio queen coming through

PI is not on TEOG level by any mean. lol

But absolutely by any mean. The fact that a MV of an uberflop like PI is on the edge of being vevo certified, and have a like/dislike ratio below 10% even with part of the monsters hating it, speak by itself.

The edit is polarizing, other than that is a great video, good concept, simple, clean, and visually stunning.

Our fav is a streaming artist

She only has some millions monthly listeners less on Spotify than the streaming monsters

Ariana - 2M
Rihanna - 6M
Katy Perry - 4M

We're in the age where everything can get certified, including MR. VEVO certifications don't mean shet anymore, unless they bring them to like 500M or something. Times have changed. Imo it's a bad, boring video. If it would've been stunning it would've helped the song.

When we think Ariana's songs are streamed 300million + times and Gaga is only 2 millions away from her on monthly listeners. Amazing. Let's hope Gaga continues the climb!

Gaga, video.

I was bored so I decided to track Gaga's chart history in my country New Zealand since the release of PI. Be warned though, it's not a pretty sight

As you can see, PI charted the highest (31), while MR charted for the most weeks (4), however none consecutively, whereas TC was the only song to chart for two consecutive weeks.

I think it's safe to say JWT won't be coming here

Katy's BA have had like 21M views by now, and still the song is low almost everywhere.

Is a controversial, high budget video, of an artist that always shows good numbers on Youtube. Is a good video, but people don't like the song, exactly what happened with PI.

MR is the MV of a much more liked song, promoted everywhere when PI was ignored by Gaga except in Japan, still PI have best youtube numbers because is way better video.

If Gaga would have promoted PI as much as applause the MV would have shown Applause views on youtube, probably better because is again the better video.

Let me get this straight, by fake views you mean the views were generated by bots or something, or you mean Youtube fakes the view count because of payola?

I don't know exactly but I know that YT has do be careful cause it could damage their image once it becomes a public issue. So I guess it's not them directly faking them.

I like Applause video, but the concept is excessive, and the editing is somewhat basic. It was rushed and you can tell it was, as Gaga's herself said.

Yeah there's no such thing as Payola for youtube, however there are companies/3rd party that provide bots to generate views "fake views" 

Youtube itself is pretty stickler for fake views/subscribers. Usually every 3 months or so go on a erasing spree where youtube channels tend to loose many old inactive subscribers and this is also usually when they delete generated fake views.
