nick4bty 2,758 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pco91kroVgQ I can't believe that god awful Wake Me Up video has more views :ghostney: The Katy tweet reeks of hypocrisy to me. "I don't care about charts #buymypromosingle". It's so transparent. If it was a comment on the media pitting girls against one another like they always do then that would be fine. But it comes off as jealousy/sour grapes She never said that, wtf are you talking about lmao Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Btrs 10 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 The Katy tweet reeks of hypocrisy to me. "I don't care about charts #buymypromosingle". It's so transparent. If it was a comment on the media pitting girls against one another like they always do then that would be fine. But it comes off as jealousy/sour grapes Just because she says she "doesn't write music for the charts" (meaning that she doesn't write songs for radio like Roar) (not that she doesn't care about charts) doesn't mean that she shouldn't let people know about her new music though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean she won't be happy if her songs do good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty3009 232 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 She clearly cares about commercial performance, which is totally understandable. Art and commerce are inextricably linked. I guess you can differentiate between "commercial success" and "charts". But to many people it is synonymous. I think that tweet will be thrown in her face a lot.

If it was a comment on the media pitting girls against one another like they always do then that would be fine. But it comes off as jealousy/sour grapes Except you misquoted her. Gaga certainly cares about charts. That the goal of promo. However, she doesn't WRITE for the charts. She's rather do her own thing, then find a way to make it a success.

If it was a comment on the media pitting girls against one another like they always do then that would be fine. But it comes off as jealousy/sour grapes She said she doesn't write for the charts. She could easily write a safe, universal song that appeals to everyone, but she doesn't. That doesn't mean she can't get happy when her songs do well, nor does it mean she shouldn't promote her work.

She won't write just to go #1 but she will be happy if the song peaks there. Also, she has to promote in order to get sales which justify her continuing music creation.

This is all in good fun, and its brilliant promotion. Wtf are you taking this so seriously? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 680 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Gaga is willing to put Applause in commercials to sell it And to encourage fans to watch her videos multiple times for streaming points. But she won't write safe generic songs that appeal to the lowest common denominator. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
