Griffin 6 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Now that I think about it more, I personally think, Just Dance wouldn't have been as big as it is today, but poker face would have still been a hit, and many would associate Poker Face as her first single. To me it is. Just Dance was very successful in Australia, and yet it had no where the impact that Poker Face did. When people heard Just Dance they went "oh, I'll keep an eye out for her. In a couple of months when her album's in the $10 bucket, I might just buy it." As soon as Poker Face happened, it was like "****. can pay day come around already? I need to hear what else this b---h is singing about." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontbesweet 7 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I DO think it made SOME difference; everyone knows Akon and to see him collab with a new artist shows that Gaga is worth listening to. Colby, however, IDEK who he is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Dance made such a impact here in Australia though! Poker face did however reflect that she was a force to be reckoned with :legend: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartz 11,923 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Without Colby and Akon's names, no one in particular will give it special attention. I mean, the song IS Gaga's. She's the main b---h of the song. But the names made people listen and they did. Then they liked it. Then they bought it. And now we have this flop to stan for Seriously though, I don't believe Just Dance would've hit number 1 and the label wouldn't have decided to release Poker face and she would've been as generic as Katy by now :neutral: I'm so glad things happened like they did Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels 2 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I don't think they had any effect on the success. I hate Colby's part tbh! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alii 2,039 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) It's not like Colby is revelant... And most people don't even know it features Akon... Yes , I don`t know .. PF was a huge hit worldwide without featuring Edited March 11, 2012 by Alii Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bambino 24,083 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I think that she would have the same success actually. Without Colby and Akon's names, no one in particular will give it special attention. I mean, the song IS Gaga's. She's the main b---h of the song. You've been using that word so much lately :troll: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 26,836 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 No one knows Akon was even on it, he wasn't credited on it. No one knew who Colby was and they probably still don't. The song probably got more attention because it was backed by Akon but I think it still would've been a success if their vocals weren't featured on it.
