DIC would have been a top 10/5 hit but it would have ruined her image and the rest of the era :)

No it wouldn't, it just didn't fit with the Joanne them, if it was in any other album it'd be stupid not to make it a single :)

I think mostly the single choices have been right, sometimes they're just in the wrong order. For example, TEOG should have been the lead for BTW, I don't think Gaga has ever produced such a straightforwardly irresistible pop song before or since. But the actual songs that were released were the right ones.

ARTPOP is the only album where I think Gaga and her team have got it completely wrong. Applause should not have been the lead single, in fact I'm not convinced it should have been a single at all. Its sound is abrasive and its lyrics are pretentious and completely unrelatable. Crucially, it is not very easy to sing along to. I like the song but it should have just been an album track and nothing more. 

Clearly DWUW should have been the lead for ARTPOP. It's the best song on that album by a country mile with a great hook. It was a top 10 hit here in the UK, and from time to time I still hear friends singing it. I don't think I've ever heard anyone sing Applause.  And I know it's hugely popular on GGD, but they were right to swerve Venus as a single. The song is great, camp fun, but my God is it a hot mess. It would have completely alienated the GP. I feel MANiCURE and (to a lesser extent) Gypsy are much more GP-friendly potential singles. They're simple, catchy pop songs that would have sounded good on the radio. 

I think they got The Fame, The Fame Monster and Joanne pretty much exactly right. She could have potentially had more hit singles from TF/M but I think she was right not to risk the overexposure.

I'm sorry but 2 singles isn't "right" at all, even if those two were good choices :sweat:

Well yes, I agree with you in the sense that in an ideal world DIC, John Wayne, A-YO and even Joanne could have been good singles, but I'm thinking in realistic terms, and where Gaga was at in her career when Joanne came out and with the singles market the way it currently is she was never going to be able to replicate her former glories i.e. scoring hit after hit.

I looked at the title and only read the words "Gaga", "SINGLE!", and "Lead" and I nearly broke my hip. :emma:
