Multiple fan bases are congratulating gaga over it , i wouldnt be surprise if ARTPOP sold 200k already. like 100k preorder from itunes + 30k from amazon is already 130j her fans probably bought the foil one at targrt or walmart etc.. so 200k isnt impossible but 288k at the end of day seems too much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaanBTW 5,244 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 It is a good way to see what the general critical stance on an album is, but within stan culture it's just for bragging rights really. The scores on Metacritic don't always really translate to how the public receive albums anyway. For example, Adele's 21 got a score of 76 which is positive but pretty modest - it even got less than The Fame Monster - but obviously that's proven to be the most successful album of our generation. Compare that to, say, Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy which got a huge score of 94, and while it was really popular with critics and music fans on the internet, it didn't have astronomical critical success. But obviously critics tend to prefer certain genres/artists, so it is political in a sense. Obviously it's important to have good reviews but stanbases just use them to brag. Some of the greatest albums ever were poorly reviewed upon release And reviewers are really harsh on pop music in general, to be honest. I see your point, thank you. :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously it's played at least 4 to 5 time and here it's really impressive considering they have to play a ratio of French songs every hour. This song could become HUGE.

Doot 2 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Yes, but Applause just doesnt DIE. I turn on B96, its playing, as soon as it ends, I flip to 103.5, its playing. When its done, I flip to 107.9, its playing. MURDERING MY EARS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrard174 695 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 the fact that DWUW is just few spots below unconditionally while only having 1/3 of its airplay is amazing Yes, but Applause just doesnt DIE. I turn on B96, its playing, as soon as it ends, I flip to 103.5, its playing. When its done, I flip to 107.9, its playing. MURDERING MY EARS. It's good. Gaga is getting the exposure she needs to sell ARTPOP. Applause will be deeply embedded into the GP's mind though it is not a #1 hit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

During BTWEra, even though they were playing the other songs, Born This Way was still everywhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
