Yeah, but I wouldn't count on her performing at the BMA's or releasing an MV.  The Cure was a cute surprise release for Coachella, I never really expected much from it.

You can count the number of artists who can get a hit without promo on one finger, and it doesn't last like that forever. 

 

Nah, there are going to be viral hits :huh:  but you can't sustain a career like that :shrug: Omi isn't going to spend his career releasing songs and having hits like Cheerleader. It was a gimmick song, they have always existed and they probably always will.

Drake is in a different position from Gaga. First of all he appeals to an urban market who consume music differently and generally have pretty devoted fans, but secondly he is just bigger atm.

Yeah. I also don't expect much. But there are actually many artists in the Top 20 right now that did not due much promo and their songs are hits.

the cure isnt a Earworm

Doesen't sounds shocking ... Not innovative

it's just a good pop track with trendy things

The only way to gaga get a hit it's redo TFM, not a EDM mess, not a country trash,

not a jazz bomb, not a metal **** album

The fans warned her times a go

The Cure is not necessarily an earworm but it is catchy and trendy. That should be enough to be played constantly on radio. Most hits on top 10 are not earworms either. Anyways going back to TFM is not what going to get her hits. She needs to keep innovating. If the music sticks then great, if it doesn't then on to the next.

TFM sound would not work today. That sound is dated. Imagine Kesha trying to comeback with another Tik Tok. You are coming across so immature.

I was referring to writing wise pop, catchy, Earworm, shocking

Not that it has to sound the same

Again, I don't see something like Bad Romance smashing in 2017. The Cure was on trend and the chorus is old school Gaga.

Nostalgia doesn't work with music. You rarely top your past work by repeating the same formula.

Just look at 1989 , 25, it's just basic pop music

That is not necessarily playing to nostalgia though. Specially not 25. Nostalgia only really works after decades of something being old. Not a few years.

True. Thankfully most people think The Cure is good.
