It's not eligible because people got an automatic download, therefor it won't be eligible to download until the album has been released. Weird though because it didn't give me an automatic download :S I had to buy it :')

Read section 7.1 in the link below (official chart rules)

 

http://c0903002.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/6915-official-uk-charts-album-chart-rules-april-2013.pdf

 

It basically means that only one single can be released from an album pre-order and appear on the official  UK singles chart. Any further singles released from an album pre-order (such as DWUW) will not be eligible to chart. So for DWUW to chart, interscope would have to release the single completely separately from the ARTPOP preorder.

that makes sense. pry why katy perry didnt release unconditionally as a promo single and didnt make it available til album release. her label and team know what theyre doing. gagas do not.  :(

but why is it ineligible? dont get it.  

 

she really should have stuck w venus 

 

Basically because DWUW was released from the album, not as a stand-alone single in the iTunes store. The UK Official Charts only allows ONE song from one album to chart 'officially' without being an actual single, and this was Applause.. so unless DWUW is now re-uploaded to the iTunes store with it's own link, own cover art etc as a separate single it won't chart in the UK at all and none of those sales will count

gaga : i dont care about the charts, venus is the second single.
interscope : we care about the charts, lets ruin everything and make DWUW 2nd single and mess everything

It wasn't interscope. 

Probably on Grindr

If Interscope had stuck to the schedule... none of this mess would be happening. Instead the world would be enjoying a promo single that generated buzz for the album/Gaga. Now there's just confusion everywhere.

 

 

This tbh. Should have just stuck to the plan.

 

Or waited till after the album to have a second single like Katy did. Her promo singles were just promo singles like they're supposed to be, and now her second single will be able to chart without complication!
