Americano 31,061 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 G.U.Y. still at #333 on iTunes. So for the past few days, it's been playing around 340-280. And this single already had pulled its streaming boost card with its MV and a televised performance. Promotional push could only do so much. And so does radio. At this rate, I'm aiming for a top 30 peak on the HOT 100, if not top 40. The televised performance was never going to do anything. Letterman is almost no performance at all, no offense to fans of his show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Lam 597 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 The only way G.U.Y. get successful is if people love the song. That's it. Nothing else can help the song and that's ok. Music and nothing else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mills 446 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 All promotional efforts broadcasted on TV or any other platform are meant to push sales. It just varies on how much it'd be able to do, depending on the program's audience. What's troubling me is the fact this single is out of the top 200 songs on iTunes for quite some already despite all the efforts they've pulled for it. Regular iTunes consumers couldn't even see it on iTunes because it isn't in the top 200. April 8th has yet to arrive, but once the rest of the radio stations start to include it in their rotation or at least allocate some time for it to be played, the push from the top 300 to the top 200 wouldn't be as vital as opposed to a push from top 200 to top 100.

SpadesToStart 3,444 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 G.U.Y. was played on Z100 as well as Saturday Night Online, that's why it's rising a bit. Which makes me hopeful that G.U.Y. has a chance once Z100 and KISS start spinning it a few times a day after Tuesday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpadesToStart 3,444 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 What makes you guys think they'll just start playing it several times a day within a few days With the MV and Roseland and the promo Gaga's been doing, there's good awareness of the song within the right circles. The fact that some stations haven't played it AT ALL up till now indicates they're waiting for the release date. And of course, for the first few weeks, I wouldn't expect it to get more than 1 or 2 spins a day. But that's 1 or 2 more than G.U.Y. has been getting up until now.

whiteboi1327 84 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 The televised performance was never going to do anything. Letterman is almost no performance at all, no offense to fans of his show. 100% this. When I knew she was gonna perform on his show I knew it would not affect the song position. Basically all she has is radio promo for the song. Let's all just request and go from there. We can't expect this song to smash right away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefani328 321 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Gaga needs to do promo on daytime TV. She needs a GMA performance, Ellen, or something. Night time TV isn't giving it enough exposure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retep 0 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Zedd's "Find You" is just taking off now, and that got released in January. G.U.Y will be fine To be fair he's literally performed it on every outlet he can including a Superbowl ad turned heavily rotated commercial. If in 2-3 weeks we're not somewhere significant at that point I'd be slightly concerned. Nothing some good promo spots can't fix though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
