I didn't believe I'd be happy with the new lead-single selling 2M.. Still hoping for the best! I don't think that Sex Dreams will be the smash PopJustice/Gaga think. Predicting a run a la Applause for it (maybe with like 10M+ AI and ~250k sales+)

 

 

 

:huh:

Can people like stop talking about the second single? Can't we just focus on Applause?

If Applause goes platinum at least, then I'll be satisfied

It will definitely go platinum. It can also go x2 platinum. Anything above that is very difficult at the moment...

If Gaga wants to have a halfway decent era length she needs to focus on Applause. I think she should start booking TV shows, Ellen, GMA, other stuff.

Okay just take this with a grain of salt, but if the song does continue to get positive updates on radio and the sales are consistent, we could see 2 million sales by December.

Yeah, it's set to go platinum now even if Gaga sat at home and did nothing.

 

I think it'll end up somewhere north of 2x platinum, which is solid hit territory.

You and I - 2,180,000

 

I think Applause will settle in with You and I.

You and I was a big hit in the US but it was a flop everywere else. Applause on the other hand is moving on TEOG territory but it is even more global...

Some of you people forget that it is possible to have a smash past the lead single. You can see that with P!nk's singles from The Truth About Love.

 

1. Blow Me (One Last Kiss) – 2,164,000 Ã¢â‚¬â€œ #5 on Hot 100

2. Try – 2,079,069 Ã¢â‚¬â€œ #9 on Hot 100

3. Just Give Me A Reason – 4,000,000 Ã¢â‚¬â€œ #1 on Hot 100

 

Just because Applause has (so far) peaked at #4 and will (hopefully) just pass 2 million in sales does not mean that there's no chance that a later single can do better. You can even look at Gaga's first era for an indication - Poker Face ended up being a bigger hit than the lead single, Just Dance, and Paparazzi, the last single, ended up being far bigger than it's predecessor, LoveGame. It's possible people. But she shouldn't be focusing on rushing a second single. She needs to focus on Applause right now, as do we.

It's more global because It's a lead single :awkney:
