What I don't fully understand is how Roar has been solid #1 with barely any press coverage, it's never on the news unless they're talking about katy AND gaga, otherwise it's just about gaga, and trust me I watch all the different news channels and entertainment news also...it's weird, it's like everyone knows the song is out there, there's mass awareness, but not mass sales...so possibly it's just because Applause isn't that HUGE of a song, with the innate press coverage gaga gets really all she has to do is give a massively catchy song to go number 1 instantly

After the VMA's probably. 

 

But Katy is also performing, so the promo will work for both of them, right?

Yeah but they said #2. In general I think Gaga's performance will give her a bigger boost than Katy since Gaga's performance is sure to blow us away moreso than Katy's, but since Katy will get a boost nonetheless and is already number 1 she will most likely remain there.

Yeah but Gaga's performances are always more remembered and impactful than Katys. I doubt Gaga will be able to top Katy on itunes even after the VMAs though. The best Gaga can hope for is good radio and streaming numbers because Katy is dominating itunes.

The magic of airplay, coupled with a lot of online promotion (often thanks to the AnythingButGaga movement that seems to be around) and the fact that she's come off an era with designed-for-radio singles. I like Katy Perry, but watching Gaga's video today reminds me why I stan over here.

i honestly think it's because roar can touch so many age groups. you have 8 year old girls who can listen to that song and will beg their parents to download it for them, because it has that young vibe and really no content that is exclusively for adults. not very many 8 year olds are interested in gaga... YET.  :ohwell:

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. She's already #1 so it's only going to cement here there.

I'm sure her performance is going to me amazing and nothing like that awkward Jo Calderone mess :creepflop:

You know it sis
