At this point, I think the era could shape like this

1- Applause

2- Do What U Want

3- Gypsy

4- Venus

5- ARTPOP

Either Gypsy smashes or not, she should take a risk and release Venus afterwards.

Why not? If Gypsy flops or underperforms, it's very clear that people are not completely here for Gaga going safe after 3 released safe choices turning into moderate hits. If the song smashes, then having two hits and a smash is already satisfactory in my book, so giving a try to a more complex song is not going to hurt at that point.

Then you can release the second fan favorite a go on tour. :)

Add also Sexxx Dreams after Gypsy or after Venus and I agree 100%. Applause isn't a safe single choice at all though...

Why do you guys call Gypsy and DWUW or any other song 'safe'? I mean I do understand what you mean but DWUW, Gypsy etc is just good music and should be released exactly because it's good not because it feels like it's safe or something. When talking about Venus we talk about it being risky and something she should do cause Bad Romance was also risky. I don't know, Bad Romance was freakin awesome and so high quality and unique that it was absolutely inevitable for them to release it as a single, but do you actually feel the same about Venus? I find Venus sooooo messy and like this 'trying so hard to make something unique again' which it's not in my opinion, makes me even cringe a bit. I'm just expressing my feelings towards all this and it would be really great for me to just hear the reasons from you guys who think Venus is good-risky not bad-risky (although like I already said I myself don't like to call music risky or not risky, more like unique when it's different compared to other songs)   :)

Well, Venus in my opinion is very different from anything Gaga has ever made, it has a very unique structure, the chorus is killer, it has a very futuristic vibe and potential for a killer video.

Wait. I just noticed ARTPOP is back to the normal price.

So it was behind PRISM the whole time when it was discounted and now it jumped ahead of prism (which is still discounted) after going back to $15 :giveup:?

In the weeks since Thanksgiving, Prism has been discounted almost every week. The majority of KP's iTunes sales have been at $7.99, where Gaga's have been twice that price. No wonder ARTPOP dropped down on the chart!

Gaga would easily be in the 700-750K range now if her CD had been $7.99 and $6.99 during the last month and a half.

i don't know if it will work for you because sometimes it's restricted depending on your country but....

http://player.montreal.radionrj.ca/

 

the countdown starts airing at 4 PM till 6 PM

 

i think you can't because when you vote a lot you see the song rising, but when you refresh the page, it fell to it's initial place so i think it's one vote per day per IP adress

 

I just clicked on that link and turned on the "Radio en direct" and THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT GAGA  :worship: They were even playing DWUW. 

I couldn't understand anything though  :laughga:

Ok. But what do you think about the lyrics? This is the part that mostly puts me off. I just cringe to lyrics like garden panty etc. But hey, it's just me  :sweat: (ok, I'm too off topic, let's better not, hehh)

I think she should take a risk too, but with Venus as her 3rd single. if it flops she can release Gypsy as the 4th single to safe the era. If it's the other way around Gaga doesn't have a safe single to release anymore after Venus and we're in the same position again as after MTN .

That's true, but it depends on how DWUW does. Todays Pop increase was huge, and at this rate DH would need 27 days to catch DWUW. Probably DWUW wont do 200+ spins tho for long, so it will be interesting. I'd be happy with another top 5 Pop hit from DWUW tbh.

well they could if only remove Applause from PR  :grr:  well someone release new single u don't put the previous one back on PR whatare they thinking /// and yes I'm talking about u Z100  :grr:  :grr:

It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely

It sounds weird because you never heard something like that. People used to say the same thing about Bad Romance when it was just released. Bad Romance had a great chorus but people thought the rah-rahs were weird. Eventually the strange structure kept the song interesting. Venus has the same strange structure to keep it interesting and the chorus is amazing, just like Bad Romance. Bad Romance was a huge hit, also because the killer video, give Venus such a video and I think it can slay. Also she's not trying hard imo because she made that same bombastic and strange music structure populair, so it's a bit of her trademark.
