Plays weren't counted as sales back then boo, Dope DID sell that much and reached #8 for a reason... which is that the GP ate it like bread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeo 2,366 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Depends. Telephone sequel video? For sure honey Another scrapped music video ? no But for real, yeah it was a shot in the dark. Applause reception wasn't the best because critics said the song was a "safe choice" and even tho a safe choice, the numbers felt a little bittersweet at the first day. For "Radio-Friendly" girls... the song was being played when it leaked in stations around the world cuz the world craved Lady Gaga. And it's not like she released something like "Million Reasons" which is SUPER RADIO FRIENDLY and still struggle to make the radios play it (they just picked it after the SB promo). Radios aren't really her friend, and back then was the begin of the stream era... a really high budget video would probably make it a hit single.

ARTPOP 2,956 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 55 minutes ago, Ladygagalover said: Nope. However, to build hype for ARTPOP and its proper lead single, it would have been cool to release the Aura MV on YouTube as the first release from ARTPOP. Can you imagine if Gaga came back with the Telephone continuation after her media blackout? That would have acted as a great introduction to ARTPOP and pushed a lot of attention to her YouTube channel. Then she could have debuted Applause as the lead single with a worldwide radio deal alongside the Kia commercial and had a bit more time to film a proper MV (even though I love its MV). Plus, she would’ve avoided the VMA fiasco and the Roar vs Applause fiasco. Alas, hindsight is always 20 20. This! I think thats most important thing gaga lacked in the past two eras! The song could serve one of her best visuals and create an amazing hype for the album. I hope she focuses on that on LG6 as well not just the music. Music video industry needs her back COME ON GAYS!!

FilthyPOP414 646 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Yes, it was rave-y and every EDM fan I knew hated Applause because it wasn't as hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miley 5,006 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 One of her worst songs would definitely not have been big as a lead. Come for me Applause is that BOP. Radio-friendly, catchy, great vocals and production with a great video. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockPop 7,747 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 It's a ridiculous song that should have a video. But a radio smash it ain't. I love it. Lead from ARTPOP should always have been Gypsy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
notbrianeno 14 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Aura was two years late to the edm party. "Gypsy" and "Dope" fit most in line with what was on radio at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Dance wasn't the radio sound when it was released either, so kinda irrelevant to say that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
