2012 has been so ****ty for music

Next year: Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears ..

It'll be amazing.

All 4 have been on a hiatus for all of 2012 too, so it should be massive comebacks.

2. Call Me Maybe

3. We Are Young

Gangnam Style already getting negative updates on Pop Radio. One More Night may possibly be one of the longest charting at #1 this year. What a complete joke :dies:

I'm so here for another Britney/Gaga stanwar :flutter:

NO NO NO NO

God only knows how much I dread taking sides with my faves. I usually lean towards Gaga, though because when a Britney stan insults Gaga I get defensive because Gaga fans are always really nice to Brit. :teehee:

US digital sales: @AliciaKeys Feat. @NickiMinaj, Girl On Fire 74,736 (526,318).

Can you imagine if she gave it away for free?! That would be amazing. I wonder how many people would download it for free.

I think she's totally capable of doing that. She knows that the real money comes from touring... I mean, she uploaded the whole album to youtube, which probably affected at least a bit the sales.

I doubt Interscope would do that though.

no, she does not have authority for that. She may be able to give a promo song away for free, but not an album. We shall see what she does, all is a game of marketing to learn from.

? That table was from 3 days before the actual Hot 100 was announced before final airplay changes. The estimates look more like this now

#1 138 + 191 + 84 = 404 Maroon 5 One More Night (=)

#2 237 + 70 + 95 = 386 PSY Gangnam Style (=)

but I feel doing Hot 100 estimations is pointless now, as it is all somewhat rigged by the industry, who control what the airplay is that is too dominant a proportion. As someone else pointed out it is the Digital Songs chart that is the real chart.

But didn't one of her managers or something say sometime after the release of Born This Way that he wanted her to give her next album away for free? Or am I making that up?

but I'm still looking forward to your posts to see the chart before the official comes out or at least to see your predictions so you should totally keep doing it!
