But ARTPOP is miles better than BTW lol

 

ARTPOP is getting the reviewed that BTW should've got, and BTW got the reviews that AP should be getting  :dies:

Nope :ohwell: Stay pressed. BTW will remain her best album until she releases something that tops it. ARTPOP is more cohesive but in no way is it better than BTW, her signature album that will forever be remembered. And you have to realise why critics prefer BTW. ARTPOP is too EDM, and has less mastery over its lyrics. BTW contained elements of rock which would definitely help critics review it better.

Why dont I RUN her team. She'd be on the phone with 2DAYFM and FOXFM in Australia right now and The Edge New Zealand.

 

Releasing her album over there without ONE call even

Maybe its part of their strategy. To let them miss her.

DWUW's iTunes position is getting concerning. Not even Top 50 anymore. WTF is she doing right now? Sitting at home twirling her fingers?

 

She could've at least called a few Australian radio stations today.

 

But without the country songs, The Voice performances, etc., it would be like #26. Exactly where it was at the beginning of the week. 

 

The fact that ARTPOP is still so low and critics are tearing it apart are for more concerning.

71 to 67 isn't a huge drop. She's holding her own pretty well when you compare the same publications (except that one Madonna biased one).

They are similar quality, and are getting will get very similar reviews.

 

It's only going to go lower though. I'm expecting a 70-75 from Rolling Stone, maybe a few other 70-80s, but in general most of the reviews coming in will be in the 50-70 range.

ARTPOP

 

New Zealand

#1 ARTPOP

 

Australia

#1 ARTPOP

 

Japan

#1 ARTPOP

 

:clap:

 

She's up to 28,000+ sales in Japan with two days of sales in. For perspective, Katy Perry's PRISM has sold about 23,000 in its first two weeks of sale there and she did promo there.

 

Avril Lavigne, who remains one of the biggest western artists in Japan, has so far sold approx. 20,000 in her first two days.

BTW should be Gaga's highest rated album
TFM second
ARTPOP 3rd (or the same asTFM)
TF last.

Quality:
BTW = TFM = ARTPOP > TF 

It's only that BTW TFM and ARTPOP are ultra different that's why fans / haters etc.. everyone has It's fav etc..  BTW is the most special album, TFM Is the biggest album In Its true meaning of the word biggest and ARTPOP Is flawfree.  TF Is great album but It's soo outdated except for PF, Paparazzi and Lovegame ..

I dont give a **** where itd be honestly at this point, because that's where it is. By the  time these songs fall, what happens? Oh, another wave next week.

 

She needs to start at least announcing performances. Not a single song in like the TOP 30 at this point and your album comes out in a few days? How the hell is she comfortable with that?

Well, I really think that its a strategy behind her absence in Asia and Australia. Maybe not what Ive said earlier, but it must be something. Right?

I think Applause will be top 15 tomorrow at the same time.

Applause is 26....and both Applause and DWUW are stable, amongst all this country/Voice bull****. That's at least something. 

 

Radio really needs to cut Applause though. There's no logical reason why Z100, KIIS, 97.1, etc. all put it back on PR. Unless, literally, Interscope is paying them to do so. And yeah, she needs to get off her ass and do some promo. I don't care if she's rehearsing for artrave (whatever the hell that is), building the app, whatever, she needs to call into/visit radios, book some TV performances, something to promote this damn album.

Gaga is coming off of BTW (It was ultra huge In Japan) I think If she promoted just a bit there she'd have sold 30k first day there ...
