Illuminati 15,786 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 1 minute ago, nATAH said: wrong taylor released the same whole album many, many times with only one track difference and charging full price whilst making some of them limited time purchases (some of them even being just farts into a phone mic) dictionary definition of apples and oranges, my pal I used fortnight as an example and circled back to what my conversation, that you for some reason inserted yourself into without reading, was about. I can't predict what Gaga will do for LG7, I just said to expect that she might follow a similar route. Historically she already had various covers for LFS, different vinyls for Chromatica, exclusive song that to this day isn't on streaming, she sold albums for a full price, with a discount and even bundled them for free with socks. Nobody has to buy anything they don't want, I surely haven't. But you absolutely MUST continue obsessing over Taylor, even if no one is championing those TTPD variants. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of two days ago, they estimate that we needed 11.25 sales. Yesterday we got 9300. So if that's all correct, we need less than 2k today. I just bought four more in Amazon (we it seems you can be more than one.) (Edit: I copied the wrong post. Oops. But you get it.) 1 hour ago, SevenWonder said: So if my maths are correct (I can't add for sh**), we're at 20k plus, right? And then we just need 2k today? 58 minutes ago, LateToCult said: Are you taking into account that the 21k number already factored in some pure sales so you’d have to subtract that from the total to get your gap? I guess we need to remember those were estimates. We need a margin of error above that to be on the safe side. Additionaly its not clear to me if they meant we need 20K sales overall or 20k more than usual But things are looking good. And its encouraging that the radio gap between DWAS and Bar Song has fallen a couple more million AI since the forecast (tho thats another thing, did the forecast already factor in DWAS rising slightly on radio and Bar Song falling slightly?

Additionaly its not clear to me if they meant we need 20K sales overall or 20k more than usual For sure. All of these are educated guesses, no doubt. But I do think, according to Psyduck, that we started out, three days ago, needing 22k (estimate). Then we got 11k (estimate) the first day of the discount. Then 9k (estimate) the second day. Today is the third and final day. And we need around 2k. (Hopefully we get another 9k for a nice cushion in case any of the math was wrong.) Pretty sure I got that right. But, I can be daft sometimes! So sorry if I did not. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I'm pretty sure this week DWAS will have a bigger streaming gap than usual due to the YouTube live video, which also boosted Spotify and AM streams 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it has narrowed since the week started. Im hoping the estimates did not factor in Bar Song falling slightly and DWAS rising slightly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyanDante 5,849 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 17 hours ago, darkgaga said: Does anyone else feel like it is a bit cheap to just release all those variants in a week just to get a #1. We slammed Taylor for it, why is it suddenly okay when Gaga does it Also she isn't deliberately releasing variants hundred times to stop artists from getting a number. In this case, DWAS is competing with a song that has been atop the Billboard Hot 100 for 15 weeks. So its definitely not the same. Let's talk about the same - when Gaga has released 36 variants of her album to secure a number 1 I'm not very good with Social Mediaᵀᴹ 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
