Charts Discussion - 'A Star Is Born'

[bloody g 31,735]

Shallow is not the problem, they just don't want to play Gaga. They haven't played her properly since DWUW. The Cure is the most radio friendly song she has ever put out yet it was treated like an outcast.

I don't understand the rejection she is going through in that department, but since it is a 100% corruption driven format there's nothing we can do. So let's go back to Gaga being the biggest pop star in the world.

Get that promo I guess.

"I'm so happy when I hear, that simple and beautiful compositions are back. No frills. There's no tricking. You're listening and you get chills. The most beautiful thing I've heard lately."

He's quite popular polish singer that teenage girls adore here so much (+ he was a coach in The Voice Kids). And from the comments I can say, that they're loving it

Get that young generation on your side Gagz

I just woke up, and I'll Never Love Again almost has 14 million views; when I went to bed it had just reached 13 million

Like Niki Minaj's videos,  label destroys Gaga's views.

Pop radio has been cancelled since they reluctantly played MR because of the Superbowl

I wonder when they're going to pull the discount card in the UK. It should easily have the 3rd week on top. Maybe in its 4th week if there's competition?

ASIB first certification, yay

"With “Why Did You Do That?” A Star Is Born created a guilty pleasure song in the film that has gone on to become a guilty pleasure song in real life. The conversation around it is similar to the discourse we had around Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off” or the entire existence of The Chainsmokers.  While critics ask why people like it, people are too busy liking it to notice"

I don't know how to feel about all these articles about WDYDT.

The problem with pop radio is called ageism. Katy Perry was a radio darling but they didn’t give her a chance during the Witness era, apart from CTTR that was payola driven and didn’t eventually reach 100m AI.

One could say Swish Swish and Bon Appétit weren’t good songs but radio seemed to abandon her as soon as she turned 30. Same for Gaga. I’m super curious to see what happens with Rihanna when she comes back.

Pop radio is literally the only reason Shallow won't be recognized as Gaga's top tier (Bad Romance, Poker Face, Born This Way) but as second tier (Telephone, The Edge of Glory, Paparazzi). Maybe if it keeps getting bigger in Europe it might end up in a limbo with Just Dance, who ended up being a massive hit in every continent but Europe, where it was a very cute hit

Well, despite Diane Warren saying it was meant to be fun, I'm still convinced the whole point of WDYDT was to sound bad. Heal Me and Hair Body Face, on the other side, were meant to sound just fun, as they don't play a big character in the movie.

the audio of INLA hit 20M views btw

Monster got +610,491 streams since Sunday! Not bad! Ugh imagine being a single back in the day with a music video like a horror movie.. Anyway, as for Shallow be happy and grateful about the unexpected success it got! It's smashing in Europe and Oceania and it did great in USA! I hope that it will be a smash hit in HAC and AC radio formats (it seems that there it will be huge) and reach at least top 20 on Pop! It's not like the song it sounds like a Pop smash guys! It's indeed unlike anything else on top 40 and I understand why some programmers maybe refuse to give the song more spins! On the other hand the song is no.1 for 1 month in sales and reached top 10 on Spotify US! Maybe they should give the song a chance after all!  A top 15 peak will be cute

Omg. I just came home from another screening and it was completely packed. There were about 100 people sitting with me in the room. This kind of longevity almost one month after release is crazy and the movie definitely is serving strong legs in my country.
