Harry 26,836 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Do What U Want, and any other songs from the album, WILL be eligible to chart come November 11. Lady Gaga’s Do What U Want (featuring R Kelly) will become chart eligible once the related album pre-order promotion ends. Official Chart rules, as agreed in committee with the British music industry, allow one ‘instant grat’ promotion per album, i.e a single track download given away as an album pre-order incentive. Do What U Want is the second track to be delivered to fans who pre-order ARTPOP, the track will become eligible to chart once the current chosen promotional period ends and the full album is released on 11 November. Source: http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/lorde-and-james-arthur-go-head-to-head-in-battle-for-number-1-on-official-singles-chart-2561/ All they can do now that will make sense is keep Venus as the second single here. Go ahead with the original X Factor performance as planned, but release it as a standalone single and NOT available with the album pre-order. Otherwise, she just won't have a second pre-album single in the UK. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elijahfan 25,070 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 So basically, polydor/gaga need to realise this before Sunday and change Venus to the official single in the Uk at least? When DWUW was becoming unavailable in several countries this morning, I thought it meant they were making it a US only single, and keeping Venus as an international single.

Sexxx 5,533 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I'm happy for Gaga to not stress out about having to do a brand new performance and release Venus instead :party: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

izebize 0 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Why don't they release it separately onto UK iTunes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 26,836 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Thanks for this, I'll add to OP. No probs :) Why don't they release it separately onto UK iTunes? I, and some others, have a feeling that Venus will go ahead as the second single here as planned. That way they wouldn't have to suddenly change The X Factor performance on Sunday too.
