:roll:

 

You can just roll your eyes behind your screen, you don't have to let me know, thanks.

 

 

But actually her collection of videos and her discography is her legacy. And that was her point - there's a difference between the stupid things people tweet and the actual art they create. Applause is art. Art should be seen. Good art, like this, should be seen by many.

 

ARTPOP.

 

Yeah, I agree with you that's it not about the numbers themselves, but I just don't understand why we fans have to watch the video a hundred times so we can say it's "popular", you know? :huh: It would be nice if we could tell that when a video has high numbers, it means that a lot of different people watched it. Nowadays that's so not the case anymore. Makes me sad.

She doesn't care about the charts, but she's said many times that it is great when the charts accept you :) celebrating 150 million views is not against what she's said.

It would be nice if 150 million people saw it, but she knows that fans just watch it 100x or put it on playlists playing it over and over again just to get the numbers. Which is the sad part.

Watch the SXSW keynote instead. You'll learn that she actually doesn't care about any causes like this.

So do other artists' fans. Are you caring about YouTube views and where they come from? It's just views. It's great Applause is still going and it has already 150 million views :) that's it.

Just watched it a few minuted before this thread. Still my favourite Gaga video (not that there's been any competition since :toofunny: )

Just gave it a watch. This video deserves to have high numbers - not purely for high numbers' sake, but to show that good art like this video really can be popular. ARTPOP.

Agreed. It's such an intelligent dissection of the music industry and the current state of artistic expression in the digital era.
