DWUW would be falling much harder if it weren't for radio right now. It's still in the 20's on iTunes combined, which isn't bad.

Radio is so inflated nowadays .... that the fact that Applause has 130 AI is not something that big, I don't wanna sound like hater or something but Ive seen how Applause was being titled Gaga's biggest radio hit but was it really  :shrug:   I mean I think that is more accurate to look at radio peaks not AIs that would give us bigger view of the situation and Applause as radio hit is as big as Alejandro imo and it's not really true to say that it's Gaga's most popular radio song ... well by AI yes but for 3 years a lot of new stations that weren't add before, now count their AI's to mediabase and radio become really inflated. And the fact is that since BTW Gaga failed to produce another #1 Pop song. And I'm not saying that Applause wasn't hit it actually did a lot as brought Gaga back to radio and DJs now aren't 'afraid' to play her like during the BTW era, Applause as song repaired the image of Gaga but it wasn't her biggest radio song imo. .... just my 2 cents here  :hehe:

 

Well, the fact is that more people got to listen to it on radio. It's the same with the rise of singles in the past decade. The fact is that more people have I Kissed A Girl on their iPod than Like A Virgin, yet the latter is more memorable.

 

Inflated single sales and radio impressions make up today's market, and if we can decode it, it still tells us the exact same thing it did before. We just need to look at it the right way.

I'm disappointed with CRTFY. I've been a Shakira fan in the past but l lost track of her a few years back, like 2-3 years before I discovered Gaga. That new song certainly won't get me interested in her again.

I mean, it doesn't have a banner on iTunes and Shakira doesn't have a top 10 single since 2007 (I think?).

And even Rihanna's singles don't go #1 right away

 

 

It has adds all over youtube - saw about 3 while watching 80's New Wave videos and performances (which isn't even S's demo).
