No they shouldn't do that... Let the song grow, that would only cut out potential sales. After the DWUW fiasco I don't think there's any use in trying anything special incase it backfires. Just do it the traditional way. I don't think it's gonna go top ten or anything anyway, I just want it to help the album.

Little bit of chart nostalgia here but it was 5 years ago today that pokerface climbed to number 1 on the official charts here in the UK.

I remember following its chart run as those were the days that I used to listen to the top 40 chart on a weekly basis. It went something like 30-28-24-15-3-3-4-1-1-1, I remember the week where it fell to #4 and was devastated that it might start falling then of course it climbed to the top spot.

Ahh the memories :gaga:

G.U.Y #195 United Kingdom 

ARTPOP #165 United Kingdom 

 

Top 200 before US, slay on brothers and sisters

 

193. Lady Gaga - G.U.Y. (+2)

158. Lady Gaga - ARTPOP (+7)

 

:legend:

 

Hopefully more people will buy it physically too. I wonder if it will be added to R1 playlist and TV stations this week...

Nah it's not impacting until the middle of May so R1 won't add it until the middle/latter end of April :(

I'm not sure if that is true though, that could just mean a physical and/or remixes or something. Post-album release dates for singles don't really mean anything, especially when Radio 1, as we know too well, add and drop songs whenever they please. I struggle to believe the label would wait almost two months to send it to radio following the video after Gaga has been absent from the charts for so many months.

Nah I asked Popjustice and they confirmed it's the UK impact date

 

The best example is Bey's Drunk In Love. Its been doing well on itunes for ages now but R1 literally only added it to their playlist last week because its impact date was never until April 14th

That's totally bizarre and I hope it's incorrect. And if it is a similar case it doesn't mean radio won't touch it until the middle of May since April 14th is three weeks away..

Because her record label are silly lol

 

Nope, it isn't. The video effect will start dying down and she won't have radio support to help support her/boost her up. She'll just freefall

No, Radio 1 probably won't touch it until the middle of April considering the impact date isn't until May 12th

Well since tje inpact date isn't now does it really matter that it will fall? I mean the point is the song to rise when the time comes I guess. :huh: Idk tbh. :laughga:. I just hope it is a plan.

Well...it's just pointless having an impact day set for May when the video comes out in March :rofl:
