If ARTPOP was released just a few weeks before, that wouldn't be the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one expected her to be at just over 500k a month after release.. considering she is lady gaga..................... that is a monstrous drop in salesDWUW is a huge radio hit.. will prob at least go top 5 on pop radio.. and with the video coming and big remixes.. it's probable it could scratch top 3.. and it's selling.. just not selling too well.. it's such a good song too..

It's going Gold in its 6th week PRISM went Gold in 5 weeks and that seems to be the standard.... Bangerz did it in 7 I believe. It's not horrible.

Mills 446 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Off Topic: i think from Beyoncé, "Mine" could smash if its a single later. Same here. Mine and Drunk In Love are the ones I've love for her to pursue with this new album more than XO. Given that collaborations are the biggest sellers right now, it'd be great for her to capitalize on that. And given that the biggest sellers in the first half of both 2012 and 2013 were collaborations too, the odds for the trend to continue seems bright next year.

It's not horrible. it is pretty horrible if you compare her sales to born this way.. but we'll see if ARTPOP holds steady like TF did.. since TFM didn't start off to high either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be horrible if we did have a chart-topping lead single. But since that wasn't the case, for ARTPOP to pull the feat close enough with the albums of her contemporaries which both have a smash hit would be far from horrible.

Applause was a top 10 hit on radio when ARTPOP came out tho.. you can say the same for BTW.. which launched with TEOG as a single being completely overshadowed by katy and lmfao Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodo 313 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 anybody have an idea how GUY would perform as a single? Its very pop and stands out but the beat is a bit too aggressive. Has an aggressive edm song ever passed well on the charts? I still think Sexxx dreams would be a better choice than GUY. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To imply that ARTPOP's sales at this point are "horrible" when it does not have the luxury of a massive pre-album single like PRISM or Bangerz had AND yet still manages to keep up with their sales is a bit misleading.

Gypsy is the only guaranteed smash I see on the album. But then again, DWUW sounds like a smash too and it's having very moderate success in the U.S. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco 731 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I hope we really are getting DWUW ft. Christina… That would slay me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturo 40,746 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 A video release on Monday would be good. Miley's vid isn't coming until Thursday sooo.... And DWUW should be Top 10 on overall radio by then. DWUW #16 now :/ It's not even falling. Just being passed up. It's SO STABLE. I wish iTunes just combined all versions on their charts so we'd be looking at #12 lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again, DWUW sounds like a smash too and it's having very moderate success in the U.S. GUY is very lovegame/pokerface esque which is why I assume it would do well. But like I said, the beat is really aggressive. GUY reminds me a lot of "where have u been" (riri) I don't know why but it has that same factor imo. Yeah its risky though. Sexxx Dreams is risky but I think it has potential just by the title itself. Radio wouldn't go for it though which is another big minus. I've made many of my friends listen to ARTPOP though and many of them love s-xxx dreams. Its super catchy and you can't deny that. Such a tough choice really.
