James Gibson 3,347 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 For an artist of gaga's extent this is extremely low, it doesn't matter if it's jazz. If her fanbase was invested it would get easily top 3. But monsters are clearly not interested so. And not only losing to the racist but being neck to neck with Brandi Carlile (it took the 60 minutes interview to pass her on itunes) is very underwhelming as well.

This should have been able to hit 50k copies, not struggling to reach 40k. I know a big reason why Cheek to Cheek opened to number one and did well is because digital sales and physical sales were stronger in 2014, but still. This new album shouldâve been able to go top 5. Twitter: @ConnorBehrens/Instagram: @ConnorBehrens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehanyo 4,250 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 This makes me sad. They should have made more accessible covers of more well-known tracks. People want easy music for the background and honestly this album is too theatrical to be that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stef 60,172 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I mean, the numbers are what they are. You canât force people to stream something theyâre not particularly interested in. Gaga spent a large portion of her career zoning in on a particular niche of pop music, hence building up a particular type of fanbase, one of which the large majority arenât putting Cole Porter songs on their playlists. And thatâs ok. Signature loading⌠đšđ¤ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.peter 3,515 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I'm sure the album will rise again after the thanksgiving special. It might have legs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, did they count the digital signed copies on this prediction?  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thatâs ok. As someone who likes jazz and bought LFS I have to agree. #10 isnât something to blame others on. If Gaga wanted another #1 she couldâve with the right music. I also have to say Iâve read jazz fans give negative reviews of the album (such as itâs poor mixing moments, the production sounding âbasicâ). Most jazz fans aren't putting this in their playlists either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chromatican 4,046 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 This is bad you guys. An album with Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett should be able to go top 3. This album shouldâve been released during the holidays or shouldâve had more recognizable tracks. This album also was very theatrical as others have said and isnât going to have legs most likely. The fanbase just isnât here for Gagaâs jazz music, and neither is the general public. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pennywise 34,823 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I don't think Gaga falling off the face of the earth helped sales either. It caused both the fans to resent her (with what happened to Chromatica, doesn't matter if it is not her fault, she is the face of the album and people only see that) and the gp to forget about her, I think.  YOUR GOD IS NOT HERE MICHAEL NOR WILL HE EVER BE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zilla 13,343 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I really doubt she cares, I feel like she cares more about the music and the message and the fact that Tony was well enough to do the album and the last shows. Letâs not forget that Tony will one day forget Gaga entirely, so for them to accomplish all this like honestly I donât think sales are on their minds and honestly I donât care about the numbers for this one either. That being said, I have my copies donât attack me đ đ¸'đ đ đđđđđ đđđ đđđđđ˘ đđđđđ đđđđ đđ đđđđ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only met Gaga in that later stages of his life. And people with Alzheimer's tend to remember their earlier days better. In any case the worry isn't whether he forgets her or not. The disease looks quite advanced. And personally my grandma survived it for 4 years only. I don't see Tony surviving that long  the moment he starts having difficulty swallowing, pneumonia becomes more likely which is usually what kills people with Alzheimer's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
