In the past, I think VEVO BANNERS did way more for many songs than actual video content.

No video has smashed since they were removed.

The Monster will, I'm sure about it.

I just took a look at the previous pages and all I have to say is that I cannot imagine how a person can change an opinion so easily. He obviously (Americano) stans for the success of Gaga, but that is not the point.

We love Lady Gaga so we want her to be a success

We do not love success so we love Lady Gaga

Exactly.

I'm at Best Buy and ARTPOP is ****ing 17.99 :eww:

Who's gonna buy that when PRISM is 15.99 Deluxe and 13.99 standard :rip:

Some Monsters are so unloyal, I remember the Applause release and people started 'jumping ship' and 'burning their stancards' because Applause didn't go #1 on iTunes. Sad, to be honest.

Also, it's sad how so many people on ATRL base their opinions on the chartrun of an album and the opinions of critics. If you'd ask 1000 ATRLers a month ago which album was better, PRISM or ARTPOP, 80%'d said ARTPOP (they actually did in a poll). Now, after the sales, 50% would say ARTPOP. Not just because the hype has died down, but simply because PRISM is selling better in the US and the media prefers PRISM. That's just sad. Most of the people on ATRL call ARTPOP a lackluster album while a month ago they were praising it to heaven, because Gaga was predicted to outsell Katy. But in the end, the quality of the music doesn't matter that much for the chartrun: If they like the single they hear on the radio they'll either illegally download it or buy it, and some people will listen to the whole album before buying it, but that's the minority.

It is very sad seeing people acting like sheeps of what really media and the whole music industry is trying to promote. I think they always were tho. Even during the 60's bands like The Beatles had very good sales so everybody even if they did not like them admitted they were good. Lack of personal opinion and overinfluence of the media is one of the most important social problems of our times.

 

 

 

P.S. I do not shade The Beatles, they are maginificent and deserve every bit of their success, I just said an example

The Voice will do waaaay more than the video.

I believe it will too. The Voice has helped so many songs and even songs that were performed on the show have a large boost even if they don't last long in the Top 10 or 20. Hopefully it can work it's magic.
