Reality 71,844 Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 2 hours ago, Juanjo said: At this point, it’s Interscope and Gaga’s management team. Gaga needs to drop them NOW. Just look at the stellar rollout for DWAS, it couldn’t have been any more perfect. Even though they claim it was a team effort, we all know it was Bruno’s label that came with the ideas and pushed it. DWAS naturally became a hit though. They (neither Gaga nor Bruno's team) did much promo for it. It just really caught on with people. We got the music video, the live performance, and what? That was really it, besides physicals.

jacs vs looser 3,483 Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 37 minutes ago, RenegAde said: I'm not surprised by this songs performance. disease is a great song but I don't think its single material, it's very heavy and not better than born this way or applause like I've seen some people claim. it definitely needs a lot of help and strategic promotion for casual music listeners or average people to want to listen to this more than once. I'm also not surprised by gaga/ her team's approach because they've literally been doing this for 3 eras now? Yeah, the song wasn't single material at all, let alone *lead* single. It is a really high quality track but it sounds nothing like a hit song, even with heavy promo and physicals I could only see it being a top 10 song for 1 week. I really do think their plan was to release it earlier (back when they thought JFAD would smash and DWAS would peak earlier) and make it a Halloween thing, but unfortunately that didn't happen.

Reality 71,844 Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 (edited) Not y'all doing this revisionist history bullsh*t by saying "Disease was actually never a great song. It's bad/average, that's why it's not doing well" Disease is her best lead single since Bad Romance; it's a great song and the music video is one of her best since her ARTPOP days. The song is also critically acclaimed, this isn't about the quality of the song. It's about the marketing and the lack of promo. I would like more promo, but crucify me—I don't really care at the same time. I still love the song and the video, and when more comes I'll enjoy that too. In the meantime, I'll continue listening to the song and keep being excited for LG7 in February. I'm sure we'll get another single by then too. The fact that it's not doing better on the charts isn't surprising. She's hardly promoted it and y'all aren't streaming it either, so what did you expect? Learn to enjoy the music cause it'd be awful if Gaga gave us the industrial/electronic/dance/dark pop album so many of you craved for years, only for y'all to trash it because it didn't hit some arbitrary number on the music charts that only chronically online stans care about.

Economy 46,963 Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 The thing too is they released it so close to christmad freeze that trying to promote it now or trying a slow burn approach wont yield any results anyway I did not understand why some monster were saying "they are going for lengevity thats why". That doesnt really make any sense when you release end of October so I dont buy it That said its a bopper and nothing will change that. Its a bit of a bummer tho for a lead to perform like this tho but oh well, still an amazing song If the rumours about a Weeknd collab are true it will probably be 2nd single and im sure it would smash Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewing on pearls 355 Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 I think they are definitely playing the long game given the election, holidays, and inauguration being before the album. I could see her doing a live performance or two sometime in the next few months, but I think we're so used to new music getting shoved down our throats that we don't know what a measured rollout looks like anymore. She teased another new song in the video as well, which could be a second single. She might even re-include Disease on the second single as well, many artists do two track singles... Imagine a 7" that is Disease + "Zombie-fied", or the second video is a continuation of Disease, or she performs the two songs back to back or something. There are a lot of ways this could pan out. That being said, it really feels like this music is for the fans. Isn't that what we wanted?? Can't complain when her music is too mainstream and then turn around and complain when it's not mainstream enough! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
