VforVendetta 2,024 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Save for Poker Face, Gaga hasn't had luck with her 2nd singles.... The video saved Telephone from flopping and Judas we all know about. Hopefully the curse doesn't continue with the 2nd single on ARTPOP, but with the Winter freeze coming up I can't help but be worried Well, 3M+ in the US and more than 5M WW + a very secusseful video and big radio support is a bit more than just saving tbh...

Luc 4,775 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 It will sell 2 m, but if it wasnt the lead single it will probably not match your description for moderate hit. Bad romance is the right song. The edge of glory is another. Bad Romance was very risky at that time and the video saved Gaga from becoming a 1-hit wonder. TeoG was radio-friendly but yet something different for Gaga, the 80's sound, not actually DancePop, a song which is 1,7x longer than the usual pop song with a very bad video and scary outfits during the era. MTN era was perfect, had it been the lead single MTN was radio-friendly, relatable, had a nice video and had great promo. But because it came after Yoü and I it couldnt help but flop WW, and because it got no radio support in the US it flopped there too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaanBTW 5,244 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Why do you care about sells and charts so much? I don't want to sound b---hy or mean but I'm really wondering. If ARTPOP doesn't sell 400k in its first week, what will happen? Will you not listen ARTPOP? Will you not love Gaga? Does Gaga have to be the biggest, most selling, most talked staron planet? ps: Please no wp because I really want to listen your thoughts and discuss.

PdogtheDaibutsu 717 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Those #1's and music that is playing is music that has been rising since October. So it's best for Gaga to do that. But like Americano said, that'd probs put her up with Katy again, AND it'd kill Applause prematurely. It's a lose lose situation. won't gaga be up against katy regardless? roar was released over a month and a half ago, and could still regain that number one spot....so even if gaga and katy release singles 3 weeks, or even a month apart, it will still be tough competition.

But because it came after Yoü and I it couldnt help but flop WW, and because it got no radio support in the US it flopped there too. Poker face made it clear that she is not a one hit wonder, not BR, who wasnt saved by the video, because it debuted on top 10 on Billboard. The edge of glory has nice AI peak. With the right video and without Judas mess, it could have gone even higher. Marry the night was a nice song on the album, but for me not single material. I still think that her performances were amazing and the video is really special in a good, artistic way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
