smitherz 2,227 Posted November 3, 2024 Share Posted November 3, 2024 I just have such a hard time believing both Gaga and Bruno’s team would make the choice to drop all those variants if they did not have information leading them to believe they could get that #1… there is just no way. and after all that for there to be a 20 point gap between them and bar song? something’s not adding up. I will be interested to see the billboard numbers… 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can very much rise to the Top 20 next week if the physicals are released and it keeps gaining on Spotify. This!

New peak is new peak though I will happily take it And disease will obviously rise Just curious, why makes you think they don't make sense? TOTC is very reliable when it comes to predictions.

LG2008 3,851 Posted November 3, 2024 Share Posted November 3, 2024 Can someone please tell me how that bar song is getting so many streams? I don't see it on the charts and if it is, it isn't higher than DWAS yet it has almost the same amount of streams i don't understand Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How in the world did DWAS lose points from the midweek predictions? It was also 9 points away from the number one then. And now it's 21 points away? Huh? After all those variants and the discount? That seems technically impossible. I am so confused. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALGAYDO 30,816 Posted November 3, 2024 Share Posted November 3, 2024 Radios are literally paid or forced to play certain songs on rotation, idk how it’s still so heavily-weighted on the BB chart lol if Gaga’s label wanted to, DWAS would’ve been a secured no.1 hit just by paying radios lol 5 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOTC is very reliable when it comes to predictions. Sorry but how the hell would TOTC know how many physicals were sold? A couple of months ago it was easy to look into the Gaga shop’s code to see how many copies remain from her releases, but they changed it and there should be no way of seeing this. Last year the G.U.Y. vinyl released through Urban Outfitters limited to 5000 sold out in less than 30 minutes. I really can’t believe weeks and weeks worth of vinyl pre orders for one of the biggest songs of the year WITH CDs as well also sold on Bruno’s shop couldn’t sell at least 10k copies. There’s just no way. Last week the song sold around 3,5k copies with zero effort, and now he’s predicting 16k, so only 12,5k copies more? It should be impossible to sell only 12,5k copies with vinyls and CDs with weeks of pre order on 2 artists’ webshop, with all those new digital variants DISCOUNTED and with Bruno spamming it on his socials to buy the new versions. This would be so embarassing if 2 fan bases combined could only pull 12,5K extra sales. NO. WAY. He must have miscalculated something. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monketsharona 65,155 Posted November 3, 2024 Share Posted November 3, 2024 (edited) Honestly I stopped caring that much about numbers and I'm totally enjoying Disease era. It's a huge serve by Gaga. If it clicks in charts cool, if not who cares ? Some people became insufferable and wasted that start of era because of numbers and data. Mainly while I left that horrible pop a 911 chart oriented Gaga place. Big OGH vibes there. Edited November 3, 2024 by monketsharona 6 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wet Fire 6,912 Posted November 3, 2024 Share Posted November 3, 2024 How and why on earth would radio be valued the most when it comes to overall chart placement? Maybe it's time to reconsider the calculation process? Radio cannot be more relevant than Spotify in 2024? I'm confused Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
