Unfortunately, I don't think so. The music industry is in a completely different climate nowadays and I doubt it will change for the better. There won't be Believe/ROL/COADF/TEOM level of comebacks for females in their mid 30s-50s anymore. :ohno:

How is Shallow not #1 on Billboard? You literally can't escape that song. It's been #1 on iTunes for months.

Yes. Mainly because Gaga is constantly reinventing herself and bringing something new to the table or making something mainstream again.

I think she's more likely than any of her peers to still have a career after 50, that's for sure.  

I definitely think she could still be pulling out hits 20 years from now, even if they aren't necessarily #1 pop hits.

Yes, her songs will be about remembering the Earth before it was ruined by climate change denying morons we  unfortunately had to kill off in the early 2030's.

This, or the world is coming to its inevitable end :lana:

Radio. If she had radio support..

At this very moment Shallow depends on streams and sales to hit the #1, it has chances but if radio had supported the song and not just a miserable 30m aud, we weren’t even discuss this, #1 on lock.

another shot before we kiss the other side

No lol. Radio ain’t gonna touch her and streaming it’s mainly young folk.

Well in time older ones will stream more too. Millenials will age as well

Ray of Light. Pink did well internationally with What About Us but it peaked at #11 in the US, so it kinda flopped there because pop radio refused to play it. :huntyga: A Shallow teas.

iTunes doesn't have much influence on charts anymore. Literally 5 years ago a big hit before could sell 500K in a week and now if a song sells 50K in a week that's a lot. Sales are like 10% of what they used to be

 

So that leaves radio and streaming mostly

 

In streams in the US it did pretty good (top 10 for a while) but on radio it only did well on HAC and AC but not the bigger Pop radio format 

 

Mediocre radio plus only a top 10 on streams means that sales alone could only do so much with the deminished power sales has now a days

 

Here in Canada the streams were stronger and sales were even stronger  as well hence a #3 peak

 

We did not get a #1 here either tho cuz just like in the US, our Radio didn't play it much either

Oh. Here in Canada (at least in Toronto) What about us got a lot of plays

 

"So what" (I am a rock star) was pretty big here in radio too

 

Her newest single is smashing sales here too but I haven't heard it on radio yet

 

Ariana Grande and Post Malone kinda take up half the radio spins as of late :neyde: and when they play slightly older songs it's always Drake :koons:
