bumblebee 2,528 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Better choices would've been: - ARTPOP - it still has appeal to different formats despite being risky. - DOPE/Gypsy - Ballads sell albums and she can promote a ballad everywhere without having to rehearse for a week. Next to that, ballads have universal appeal and the most important radio stations will pick it up (Top 40, HAC, AC, Rhythmic). We haven't heard any studio version except DO WHAT U WANT and APPLAUSE. How is that possible to put out singles predictions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Both Venus and DWUW aren't good 2nd single choices, Venus isn't going to get played on radio a lot. DWUW won't sell a lot outside of the US, probably less than Applause (which is REALLY low - about 500-1000k sales outside of the US for Applause atm). Not to mention that it's basically predicted to debut with 50k non-pre-order sales (which will actually count after 11 November). Sorry Interscope, but DWUW isn't a strong 2nd single. DWUW mostly appeals to Rhythmic/Urban audiences which won't buy Gaga's album anyways. Gaga needs a Pop Radio smash. Better choices would've been: - ARTPOP - it still has appeal to different formats despite being risky. - DOPE/Gypsy - Ballads sell albums and she can promote a ballad everywhere without having to rehearse for a week. Next to that, ballads have universal appeal and the most important radio stations will pick it up (Top 40, HAC, AC, Rhythmic). DWUW is a great song but I just think it'd make a better third or fourth single. She already had radio behind her back and it's better to end an era with a song like this rather than a song like Venus, Swine or etc. I hope the second single will be Venus outside of the US and the third single will be one of the two ballads. Bro, didn't you see DWUW is now being played in Urban radios? This is the multi-format smash we have been waiting for. ;) I got nothing to complain about with DWUW, although I agree that Gypsy could have been a great second single too like what we have been hoping before.

GagaMyBlood95 9,899 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I wouldn't say Venus isn't single-material but I have to say it isn't really SECOND-single material, because you really need to play it safe with the second single since that is going to promote the album THE MOST!!

SomethingMore 1,701 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 DWUW will smash, deal with it ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Bro, didn't you see DWUW is now being played in Urban radios? This is the multi-format smash we have been waiting for. ;) I got nothing to complain about with DWUW, although I agree that Gypsy could have been a great second single too like what we have been hoping before. It has been played 2 times by radio stations yesterday. Don't get too excited, and next to that: which person who listens to Urban radio will actually buy her album? Singles are to promote albums. We haven't heard any studio version except DO WHAT U WANT and APPLAUSE.

Harry 26,836 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 When do album sales come out in the US? I'm interested to see PRISM's numbers. She's headed for an underwhelming debut here in the UK. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 By the way, expect Venus to sound EXACTLY like this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2U6sCGQnLE#t=67 When do album sales come out in the US? I'm interested to see PRISM's numbers. She's headed for an underwhelming debut here in the UK. Predictions are 270-300k Hopefully she'll debut with 268 so Miley is still higher Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capitol can't be happy with that. She will probably have longevity though if her singles do well. really?hmm.. Only done 40k as of this morning, which I think is about the equivalent of 135k in US. Has today and Saturday left, but she's already had her biggest day of sales (the first). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
