Freddy 4,421 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 15. LADY GAGA – Do What U Want f/R. Kelly: 85.975 (- 1.081) Make up your mind about the third single Interscope/Gaga or soon she will spend weeks without having a song in the top 20 radio songs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I don't know, but I'd prefer them to wait a week or two for the next single. She's only had like 3 days of negative updates now, wouldn't want another song blocking the other song from growing. I'm okay with the third single being sent to AC/HAC radio right now though, because they would help the song peak higher, get a higher iTunes position, push album sales and not make DWUW die on Pop/Rhythmic radio just yet, where it's still strong.

I agree that they should wait, in my opinion there is not much of a point to send the song on AC/HAC earlier tho .. Remember when Gaga used to open with 2M WW. These days some don't even think she'll pass 2M in a year :cry: well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I agree that they should wait, in my opinion there is not much of a point to send the song on AC/HAC earlier tho .. well There is in my opinion. Why? - Songs peak much later on HAC/AC radio and have more longetivity than on Pop Radio. Having your peak at Pop and HAC/AC at the same time is much more likely when the song had been building AI for a while already. I mean, look at this: HAC 15 +1 PITBULL Timber f/Ke$ha 2489 +55 469 -16 17.928 +0.368 19 +1 ELLIE GOULDING Burn 1593 +90 387 +34 10.111 +0.565 27 = EMINEM The Monster f/Rih... 994 +16 108 -9 8.152 +0.121 28 = KATY PERRY Dark Horse 897 +68 381 +32 7.444 +0.666 - HAC/AC radio also cares much less about iTunes positions. So getting some starting airplay there isn't as hard. Example: HAC: 23 +2 BRUNO MARS Young Girls 1206 +38 261 +18 6.758 +0.279 AC: 2 = SARA BAREILLES Brave 2016 -1 83 -8 16.167 +0.038 - Getting higher AC/HAC airplay means more people buying your song on iTunes. This would make the song stabilize higher on iTunes, and as soon as it gets released on Pop radio it'll already be at a much higher iTunes position, meaning that the song would pick up Pop/Top 40 airplay much faster. - Gaga has no song in the HAC/AC Top 40 right now. Sending a song (like ARTPOP ) to HAC/AC radio right now wouldn't hurt DWUW's airplay, because it's barely being played on HAC/AC radio. - AC/HAC listeners are a demographic that buys albums more. It is, in my opinion, a big reason why Born This Way sold so well. With TeoG - a song that was HUGE on HAC/AC radio - it kept selling high for a long time. DWUW appeals more to Rhythmic audiences, which tend to buy albums less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valextra 58 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 The performances of this era are all flawless in a way or another, she never dissapoints me from that point of view, but this is also another cause to get mad at the fact that a single get screw (DWUW) for a music video after all the good performances. I definitely think that DWUW is really one of the most missing hit of all time. In my opinion after all this mess I think that radios are gonna to support less an eventually third single in this era. And how much time will pass before we'll have a new music video at this point? March, April? Seriously 8 months from the release of the first? I can't, seriously.

Either way they need to plan the 3rd single era really good. I am tired of amature bull**** ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure Adrenaline 1,518 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 How does promoting a version that is not for sale and can't be played on the radio help to sell albums? Sure, it was a nice gimmick to boost Gaga's image (back when her album versions were slaying anyway). no I ment that Gypsy would have been released to iTunes with cover etc. during her performance and of course would boost album sales ballads always do the fact that all the performers have been already announced. And don't start with surprise performance etc. This is not the ENORMOUS start she used to be. u can't just let me dream, can you It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure Adrenaline 1,518 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 the grammy performance is just more Iconic, doesn't mean It's better :( just because Alan Carr is a night show with small stage doesn't mean the DWUW and Dope performances are ot ****ting on that one. Still love it tho Lady Gaga's bad performances >> Britney's better and Katy's best performances fixed :ARTPOP: It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
