Sneaky Oliver 22,115 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 It's so distasteful when you guys shade BTW like "No one knows it" "No one has ever liked it". It's not true. BTW is still one of her greatest hits, everybody knows the song, the whole fanbase was glad when it came out and BTW era was amazing. If you were not a fan back then, you can't really judge the era Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I still think Born This Way would've had massive a longer chart run with streaming. Wasn't single streaming starting in summer 2013 tho? Idk let's ask @DiscoHeaven23 our chart expert.

Mythos 3,199 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 LoL, so many are pointing fingers for BTW being too gay... Guys, you forget something, that weird ass video, her really weird persona at that time, horns or whatever pointing out of her face etc. GP didn't had enough of the song because it was too gay, it was because she got too weird. GP doesn't need to relate to the song for it to be successful. Despacito was so successful, and most people didn't even know what the hell he was singing about. There are many songs people dont even know what the singer is really singing about, but people still love it, cause it's fun or has a nice melody to it.

Sepsami 18,859 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 BTW went #1 cause of it's message and how much of a hot topic LGBT rights were, especially back then when the media and the industry was kind of ignoring it. Sonically it's kind of meh honestly, I never listen to it. Applause is a perfect pop song that only gets better as u listen to it more and more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McMonster08 4,528 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Maybe because Gaga had so many competitions in 2011? I think BTW is more well-known to the public than Applause. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't single streaming starting in summer 2013 tho? Idk let's ask @DiscoHeaven23 our chart expert. From what i've seen doing my chart threads, streaming has made songs start to chart longer. If you look at the longevity of the top 10 songs of 2011 and compare that to the top 10 songs of 2017, you'll see that the 2017 songs had had longer chart runs (typically).
