PerfectGUY 7,822 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I really don't regret that we had PI as a single. I needed a video for it and cool performances (idc if not televised, the Moth Bar one slays me every time ) I still think it was a good choice but very badly handled. Indeed, it's an ambitious choice (high quality song but may be difficult for people to resonate with it at first - even tough I cried tears of joy the first time I listened bc it sounded so good -) So I think that it was a win or loose. They had to promote the hell out of it to get people used to it and actually appreciate it for what it truly is and then I'm sure it would have smashed. But as they didn't impose it on people, they just let it go bc it was too much for them. So great single choice, but the strategic choices weren't adapted AT ALL for such an ambitious single (that could've been one of Gaga's biggest ) --- When she says she'll have to perform Perfect Illusion for the rest of her life, do you think that she'll actually do it or she was just assuming it was gonna be successful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could of smashed Should been the lead of joanne, it could easily lasted all of 2016 with a video + radio deals and promo later in the year But yeah it really showed gaga can still have a hit with next to no promo from gaga herself, they just need to decide a good enough song and make a really great video to help in todays streaming age.

Babel 40,910 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 3 hours ago, ShockPop said: I think the label need to listen to what the audience is connecting with rather than what used to work for Gaga on radio. This I don’t agree with. Gaga herself has said she’s very proud of her lead singles being nothing what you hear on the radio at the time of their respective releases. And she also said it’s always going to be this way. Ever since I heard Joanne in full it became obvious to me why they chose Perfect Illusion instead. PI was the closest to the classic Gaga sound on Joanne. Million Reasons and AYo sound like nothing Gaga has ever worked before. They were almost as hard to predict as PI.

Biagio2103 4,858 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I feel like PI would've done better if Gaga would've done more promo, the song was doing ok in HAC, and we see that many HAC hits are platinum (TC being a good example).
