NIghtmareElm 2,606 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Obviously we don't know yet since Witness just came out a few minutes ago. Is it possible though? People were talking about Joanne a bit more than they are about Witness and there was more positive anticipation with Joanne. NOT SAYING WITNESS IS BAD. Gaga was more well liked than she had been in quite a while before the release of Joanne? Katy during this era? Worse than the hate Gaga got in ARTPOP. Would be awesome. A flop single that came before Joanne, yet the album was number 1 for two weeks (two weeks right?) straight and didn't have a large drop like BTW and ARTPOP. Not trying to brag just because Gaga is my fave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeleteMyAccount 11,881 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Considering how lackluster Katy's success has been so far, I'm not sure. The album package with the tour tickets will definitely help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hades 27,980 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Gaga is an album seller so probably yes. Singles-wise they are at the same level now i think. Both stuggle to get a hit unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroglamx 5,177 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Yes, Witness is to Katy as ARTPOP is to Gaga. Pink flamingos always fascinated me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariomania1234 11,368 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I'm almost positive it will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future Lover 2,588 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Normally I'd say yes, but Katy bundled Witness with tour tickets so that'll increase the opening week number if I'm not mistaken. It'd be sadder if it didn't sell more and was still boosted because of the tour tickets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon 335 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I really don't think there is any hype for this album. I always felt that Katy was a GP artist with a small fanbase compared to Gaga's, and this era it seems that she lost a lot of the GP. So right now I think she will struggle to sell as many albums as Joanne, but maybe she'll prove me wrong. Spoiler Also the hate Katy is getting, is nothing compared to the hate that Gaga got during the ARTPOP era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastertoyo 22,734 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Im listening to the tracks right now. and Actually. All of katy's tracks SOUND. great. S.O.U.N.D. great.. The lyrics suck. But The sound might capture people and increase the first impression and initial appeal... So.... I'm not sure. please enlighten me to death Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas P 18,479 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Pure sales for sure cuz gaga has always pretty much creamed Katy in that category but I think Katy's sps may be higher, and with the tour bundle I think it's likely TBH. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonSwiftAnton 3,785 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I believe it will. I think Joanne will stand the test of time tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
