didn't stupid love debut at no.5? :selena:

if they dropped the song, music video and physicals on release day it would have charted higher but maybe they're choosing a different strategy? although I think it's a high risk they're taking. It should have smashed into the top 10 at least. 

They're probably dosing the promotion because of the 4 month gap until the album. I'm quite happy, though. Pop eras are pretty much dead after the album release these days... At least we'll have LG7 for longer.

The GP is eating up her ballads tbh... Million Reasons, Shallow, ARUTW, INLA, Hold My Hand (which has 300M+ views on Youtube honestly its a LOT nowadays), DWAS... If she wants chart success she'll just go and release a ballad album and collect hit after hit tbh

And yet 6 of the 7 songs she has currently getting more than 1 million streams this week are not ballads (nor are they majority of the ballads you mentioned in your post). And her last ballad release (Happy Mistakes) flopped despite high playlisting. 

This debut is 27 because this is her most lukewarm lead single roll-out ever. Tempo, genre, etc. is only a small factor. 

Still, a really good song!

I’m shocked at how much I really like disease and f*cking love the video because I generally only really truly LOVE her ballads and live acoustic performances. This just isn’t the material the GP are looking for from her these days and if she had of released something in the vein of ARUTW she would have been top 10 minimum. Even with her older songs pulling large numbers, Disease just isn’t getting the best lead single treatment that it should to push it higher from the jump.

 

I do think it will rise some but honestly with Joker 2/Harlequin/DWAS all out within close proximity, I’m not shocked that this song is only in the Top 40.

Sorry to double post, but mimicking what someone said in another thread, we’ve been asking her to do something dark and experimental for years. She can either do a fan service album or a gp smash hit album, we can’t expect to have it both ways. She’s also 16 years into her career, the fact that people pay any attention to her new releases is a testament to her lasting impact

See The Best In Everyone

Honestly we’re at a point where we just need to accept that she isn’t going to be able to chart the same way she used to.  She’s doing this strictly for the hardcore fans, and if we keep focusing on the chart positions we’re gonna lose sight of where she’s taking us with her art.  

She is able to chart, she just doesn’t want to do what she needs to do to chart. It’s a bummer but it’s true. Gaga doesn’t want to do it for the people anymore, she wants to release what she wants, promote when and how she wants and that’s it, take it or leave it. 

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

This, people forget that the music industry is more than just "letting the art speak for itself". You have to play a certain game to get your stuff to chart high, regardless of the sound or quality of the project.

Was hoping for a top 10 lead, but that’s okay

imo only us Little Monsters are hungry for Gaga, the GP is probably over saturated with Gaga interms of DWAS, FAD etc

1) It’s got time to grow

2) Like I said in another thread, songs like MTN and G.U.Y. didn’t leave our rotation because they underperformed right? The song is amazing and that’s all that matters

3) I refuse to let charts rule this era and the way we enjoy it. This era is going to be epic and I plan on soaking in and cherishing every second of it. Music not the bling 

 

But that's the main issue, it's not up to you but up to her and her team. 

This becoming her lowest charting lead single, could have them rethink, change or delay the album/era.

I would HATE this. Love the song, but this move would be the absolute opposite of doing it for the art
