Often songs will gain decently around 1 or 1.5 for awhile (like the above), then plateau about where DWUW is before they either take off or stallflop.

 

Praying right now.

which means she needs to release the video before the song dies.

No, it means that songs often slow down when they have had an 1,000+ bullet for a few weeks. It means that songs often slow down as they get this close to the top 10. DWUW is going top 10. It isn't going to die.

He said that dwuw will

1) take off now after the the negative updates

2) flop into oblivion.

No necessarily. I'm sure Interscope has reps in contact with radio program directors, and they might be told "We'll power rotate DWUW but not for a couple weeks until we are done with A, B, and C. Or maybe Rhythmic is waiting for Rock Ross.

 

How much has the Beats commercial run in the US?

That chart really shows how much US, UK, and Japan dominate sales. It's fuill of local artists who got just a sprinkling of sales outside their home market.

 

Both Gaga and Katy sold about 80k outside the US.

 

Infact I am happy that she went to Japan to promote, it's very important have the support of that country, it's a devoted fanbase while Uk is more about 'trending' of the moment (also with their artist, see the disappearance of Leona Lewis, Duffy and many others) ;)

This is true, the UK is very good at hyping new artists and it's not uncommon to go from huge sales to barely reaching platinum (or worse). Scissor Sisters and Mika are other examples. Even Kylie early in her career. Even  after breaking the US, Ellie Golding's 2nd album sales started slow and struggled for awhile. 

 

Being global means everyone is unlikely to decide you're uncool at once. :haha:
