None of these songs are flops. They may be an underperformance compared to their previous leads but not flop at all. 

ME! will get like 2x the points that Shallow did when it peaked at #1 how's that a flop

We need a better phrase than 'front loaded' for a song that everyone listens to on a Friday but no one talks about on Monday at school/work. At least people couldn't stop talking about lwymmd that first week, with ME! the response is like 'oh... okay, well...' (and I say this as a massive TS fan who has met her and everything)

I think Shallow felt like a bigger hit than it was, and I guess 'bigger' than ME!  (its honestly still so early) because it was a major pop culture moment and a triumphal return for Gaga. No one would bat an eye if someone said Shallow had a chart run like Applause, when in reality we all know Shallow had a modest run on the charts. It's all about perception.

Yes - and pure numbers don't often encapsulate how big something really is in pop culture. Beyonce hasn't had a #1 in a while. Some might even remember Shallow having a better chart run than Applause tbh - Shallow just "feels" bigger because of not only the longevity but also the fact that a wider segment of the population was into it. Shallow was not only a pop hit but also HAC and AC. The entire GP was here for it.

It's funny how everyone labels Taylor as not successful when she's debuting #2 but if this was Gaga everybody would be celebrating how great she's doing

The issue is context. Taylor came off of being considered queen of sales and her lead single selling 1M in the first week for the previous era. Gaga was coming off of... Joanne.

Objectively, ME! isn't a flop by any means. It's not really a hit either--too soon to call it that. It's looking like it's gonna be extremely front-loaded based on the declines we're seeing. But we'll see.

Not at y'all comparing ME! with Shallow. ME! is only doing that good at this moment because of all the ads, deals and other marketing strategies that Taylor's team has while Shallow is the definition of an organic hit and is a cultural phenomenon and not to say that it went #1 against all odds with radios still acting like they never heard this song....

Idk how to feel about Tay. I don’t want her to flop (meaning I want her to get the #1 spot) but the song is just sooo intolerable for me. I just hope the album comes through.

Does it matter? Damage is done
