Wasting promo's and radio deals on bad songs. Stupid Love => Babylon Disease => Shadow Of A Man/ Zombi Boy Joanne => scrap the entire era Very harsh, but there is truth in it. Chromatica had the perfect opportunity of "Replay". A banger song. Joanne was so important for her career in the long term, but she should have started it with Joanne the Song (best song on the album), Diamond Heart or Million Reasons Disease is a GREAT song, but its not that easy of a listen that it should be a single 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalpsi 238 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 (edited) im so happy that she let Disease be the lead single cuz we always cry for fan favorites to get single treatments, Disease did. could have been like single #3 tho, gp doesnt like art edit: i also predict TDD to have ROM like performance, it might be a hit now but in 3-4 years it will pull abysmal streams Edited September 11 by metalpsi 5 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging every single's deservedness by how likely it is to be a smash hit is BORING. I'd rather Gaga picks wildcard choices that are also incredible songs and Disease is exactly that. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lastpopicon 37,167 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 8 hours ago, Economy said: Hate to sound like a debbie downer but that growth looks flat and consistent not exponential so it seems like the daily amount being added to total looks roughly the same, not going up or down significantly? Edit: Tik Toks graph looked more exponential than instas tho so thats good Yup, it's not taking off like TikTok and the numbers are mostly driven by Gaga's own reel. The melody that you choose can rescue you 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its one of those fan favs that the GP would not feel the same about at all Stupid love leaked months prior was mediocre in both sound and visuals, recieved luke warm reception from fans, pop audiences and the GP yet it managed to debut at #5 on the hot 100 There was such a hunger for gaga music post joanne and ASIB slayage that if gaga had released something as eclectic and dynamic as babylon with a more polished presentation it would have gone viral or atleast carried for longer by pop audiences. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree SL wasnt the best choice for a single, but its failure doesnt prive Babylon would have been any better Babylon is a very fan targeted song. It doesnt sound GP friendly at all imo. I feel it would have done even worse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirrion Rizzons 11,715 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 (edited) Telephone should reach 1b streams in about 70 days!

Something like her Thanskgiving special before. I hope they still have some secrets that are soon to be announced. This. And.... drop TOTAL MAYHEM on Fri 31/10/2025. That would be insane and a true chaos for the gays. GP definitely would have their eyes on her release and forget Taylor 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
