Mariano 958 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Guys remember that P!nk did not perform at the grammys in 2013 and JGMAR Slayed more than Stay (the song was performed there) and her albums sold more than almost any POP Album ..

VenusDreams 21 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I'm starting to think that Gaga intentionally wants DWUW to die a slow death so that she can start ARTPOP era 2.0 anew with Venus and her initial vision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 That's simply not true. There are plenty of artists, who don't perform at the Grammys, who continue to have great album numbers. Most Grammy bumps are temporary and play out rather quickly. A few artists, every now and then, will have a "moment", like Rihanna did last year with Stay. That performance propelled her single to be one of the top singles of the year and also introduced her as a more complete artist- one that could sing live. That alone had a significant impact on her current album at the time. Most of the Grammy performers see very temporary boost for their performed single and current album for a week or two, and that's it. Continuing to have singles that get into the top 10 on Pop is far more important for someone like Gaga! She needs to have a third single that accomplishes this, and it needs to be an album seller, not a fun fan-favorite. It needs to especially appeal to Pop AND HAC! Songs like Say Something are staying in the iTunes top 10 because they have massive support from HAC stations. That's taping into a completely different audience than songs that are strictly Pop songs. A song that makes it into the top 5 on HAC is adding a whole new buying base to its arsenal. Gaga REALLY needs that with her next single. A third hit single like that could help sell the album, way more than a single performance on any show, including the Grammys. :bow: exactly, I think that TeoG being the first post-album single is one of the best choices of Gaga's career. That probably was what made BTW do really well next to the hype AC support cant hurt either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want that too. I can wait till March for the next single. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luc 4,775 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 So you agree that Gypsy should be the next single what the heck is that gif It's from a Dutch TV show, Oh Oh Cherso. Well, ARTPOP is better HAC material in my opinion. Gypsy would probably do about as well as Applause on HAC/AC radio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Winchester 197 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I want that too. I can wait till March for the next single. Yeah that would be perfect it will be almost like a "start-over" for this era and she'll have so much time to actually plan the rest of the era out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just A Holy Fool 2,606 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I know the sales are ****ty, but DWUW I think has done amazingly well considering the messy promo plan, the rush choice to make it a single and no video.... I am satisfied when taking everything into account. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am satisfied when taking everything into account. I agree, the promotion and everything else was really poor, yet it outdid Katy's Unconditionally, which had all of the promotion and management organized So that's a bonus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arturo 40,746 Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 Guys, DWUW had way more promo than Unconditionally. Let's not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just A Holy Fool 2,606 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Guys, DWUW had way more promo than Unconditionally. Let's not. I didn't say I didn't have promo, it was just not executed properly. Like the video should have came out right after the AMA's or The Voice... and the Christina collab should have went to iTunes RIGHT after the live performance.
