Bad Monster Kid 13,140 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I don't understand ppl in here thinking Birthday won't do well. It will go Top 10 at least, Top 5 in my opinion. It may be in the 60s but all it needs is one performance and BOOM Top 10 is for sure. I will say the video is a big letdown. That Rabbi impression is the worst I have ever seen. Does she not have any Jewish friends??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Life 118,907 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 It took almost half a month for LFN (a single heavily compared to Birthday) to enter the top 10 on iTunes upon its release as a single. But yeah, Birthday's rise is getting too slow for her. They better release a remix (and a discount) for this if they want a top three hit. LFN went TOP 30 with 21M Al and before the video. Something Birthday struggled to do with a video and 13M more airplay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does she not have any Jewish friends??? the song is getting updates that only LEAD SINGLES are getting and it's not even top 50 on Itunes. It doesn't matter if it hits top 10, what matters is that people are not here for it and eventually they will consume it but if they were here for it, they'd buy it. 3.3M Update is unheard off for a fourth single that is in the lower part of top 100 and this is only since a few days, it wasn't even top 100 prior to that...

Blank Space 0 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 259. Lady Gaga - Applause 511. Lady Gaga - G.U.Y.    Birthday   #68 United States (-2)  Falling, ha. It took almost half a month for LFN (a single heavily compared to Birthday) to enter the top 10 on iTunes upon its release as a single. But yeah, Birthday's rise is getting too slow for her. They better release a remix (and a discount) for this if they want a top three hit. LFN is aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa lot catchier than Birthday imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariano 958 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Too early to tell if ppl are here for it or not. really ? To me it seems like Birthday's exposure vs sales is a lot worse than G.U.Y. GUY 7M AI 500 on Itunes a video released 1 month ago Birthday 40M AI a newly released video and it's at 60-70 on Itunes ..  You realize that You and I (fourth single from Born This Way) at the point of 40m AI was already slaying Itunes right ? And that is Gaga's mediocre, country influenced single In fact You and I peaked at 60M AI (or so) and it sold 2.5M copies.. Radio is literally RAPING people to buy Katy's Birthday. I understand that they would push Birthday no matter what (after smashes like Roar and Dark Horse) but 3.3M AI ... they are literally trying to make it the next SMASH, when people are clearly not here for it.. (that doesnt mean it cant be a mediocre hit, but radio is pushing it a lot more than it should) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
YeehawKylie 7,817 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Â LFN is aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa lot catchier than Birthday imo. And the video for LFN was a lot better. A lot a lot better. Birthday's video is just embarrassing. It'd turn me off from buying the song...(but on top of it the song is just not that good even from a commercial standpoint).

Klou 2,414 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I've been saying all along that Birthday had a horrible AI/sales ratio So frustrating when I've been right so many times and people still won't listen :awkney: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
