PatrickMonster 6,515 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Bruno's debut are always not high because of less promo at the start and he barely announce his upcoming songs and video. He's also a slow gainer with great longevity. On the contrary, Gaga is a well-known artists and have a large fanbase and more people knows she has a song coming up. A front-loaded artist with no really great longevity. We can't really compare both except that the two are equally talented. Well every artist is slow gainer with their first album. Gaga was a slow gainer with great longevity with Just Dance, Poker Face etc. Everybody expected Bruno to sell at least 200k, maybe even 300k considering that his singles Just the Was You Are and Grenade sold more than 6 million copies. Bruno fans were having huge meltdowns by that 92 k first week. He was struggling to get into the top 10 on iTunes. I really dont think Gaga had more promo for Applause, for the GP it came out from nowhere, just like LOOH. Gaga just reeeeally need to get healthy radio numbers so it can sustain its sales. Hopefully this time Gaga will have longevity and Katy peaks early. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPM 781 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I'm really worried. I really wanted all the hatred and criticism to end and I want her to be successful. After just a day, she is successful worldwide and this rush released ****ed up everything. I wanted the hatred to stop, now even if she sell 150 MIL copies she'll get dragged that she's not successful in the US, I don't get how you people in the US like Roar better, I mean, it's unimaginable to me, the song is good and catchy that undeniable, but really? Applause is better by miles. I hope the VMAs performance help the song. I just need Gaga to rock back. The music is so good. She deserves it, after all the backlash.

Blues 0 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 People were just expecting way too much imo. Gaga is an album seller and a fantastic touring act. She has never been a singles artist. BTW debut with 448k and TEOG with 266k. Other then that i don't think she ever debuted with 200k+? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runway 27,876 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I hope this does well for Gaga's sake :giveup: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this time Gaga will have longevity and Katy peaks early. But that's the point, ARTPOP isn't her 1st or 2nd album now. But it can happen though considering the backslash from BTW. YAY! The lyric video is coming out!. "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 26,836 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I told you guys. You guys are still in denial. This is bad, and it could signal our end. Well, at least we wen't down in history as iconic like the Spice Girls. But I don't think we will reach the legend status. It just got to the point like the Spice Girls, no matter what they release, the public don't want them. I'am sad, but I am already mentally set. There are worse things in the world. I just will never invest myself in an artist as much anymore. When **** like this happens, it's just a bummer. It happened with Shakira. You're a ****ing mess get it together Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonsterOfSpain 8,318 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I wouldn't worry about the sales, there's a lot to come: radio deals, the music video, the VMA's... let's just see, it has only been 2 days out. Althought I am a little scared about them too, call me desilusional or whatever but I was expecting that iTunes record... nvm I trust in you Gags and Interscope! With a full week, BTW debuted with over 900,000. Born This Way, how epic song tbh. If only they had released it on a Monday.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
