chris777 112 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Did Poker Face or Just Dance influence the lives of anybody besides Gaga and her team (and the fans who became fans)? Did people refrain from commiting suicide after hearing JD or PF? I don't think so. Poker Face and Just Dance did have impact. those two were everywhere (especially PF) and till this day Gaga's classics. besides LM's NO ONE remembers OR cares for Hair and MTN Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Some straight boys want to **** her,(Same thing with Katy and "her rack") not buy her first silly pop song. Now, Problem is a little different because it is more R&B with another GLTF as a collab. That's a song they can get into, due to those factors. Straight guys don't care how good a pop star looks, they aren't going to buy some pop tart single or album just because they want to **** the girl. The pop tarts have to find a way to make the music more interesting, by adding rappers or doing R&B s-x type songs or Alt. Rock type music. What does Applause have to do with Ariana's song in this discussion anyway? We were discussing Ariana's first two singles and expectations for this one. Why throw that in there? No one said she was doing badly and I certainly didn't! I don't know. It feels a little bit different with Ariana. And perhaps the hype from straight males made her well-known to females too? Most people here knew of Ariana Grande and her talent before she debuted tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VforVendetta 2,024 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Ariana had way more than a Nickelodeon fanbase. LOTS of people viewed some of her covers before her debut single (including me), and she quickly became popular through word of mouth (all straight boys think she's s-xy and cute and tell friends about her, she gets lots of social media attention) and with her debut single she already had a bigger first-week than Gaga with Applause. OH MY GOD I JUST FOUND THIS. THE SHADE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8SoTkp52mQOMG I love it. :popcorn: Ariana has so much talent. Can't wait for the day that she will take the risk and sing that inspiring and unique songs herself.and not the mediocore generic songs she sings now. :later: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because they're remembered, doesn't mean they influenced more lives. Impact =/= popularity. They have almost nothing to do with eachother. Impact is how much influence it had on culture and people. Popular is how often it was played on rado. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's smart that she's releasing generic singles at first, she'll be well-known with Pop radio and they'll pick up her songs faster (like a Rihanna song). When she has shown the world who she is, she'll be able to make more songs that are less generic. But that probably won't happen, because labels want to make as much money as possible :cry: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All singers reach that crossroad when they make it commercialy, I hope that she will choose the Lady Gaga and not the Katy Perry path. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people here knew of Ariana Grande and her talent before she debuted tbh Not in the US. She was the typical Nickelodeon-Disney girl, that all the tweens (including young gay boys) stanned for. Straight high school/college boys aren't running around with Ariana's first album on their playlists ...some of them would **** her though. Then again, many straight guys like their girls to look older than 12. They want girls and women with some curves and who look legal! ;) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Americano 31,061 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 JT is in the Top 10 on iTunes so in what way is that payola? So silly. Good for Ariana and Iggy. Not in the US. She was the typical Nickelodeon-Disney girl, that all the tweens (including young gay boys) stanned for. Straight high school/college boys aren't running around with Ariana's first album on their playlists ...some of them would **** her though. Then again, many straight guys like their girls to look older than 12. They want girls and women with some curves and who look legal! ;) In what world does this matter.. AT ALL? People are buying the song because it's catchy and fun. It has nothing to do with the BS you're discussing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 They had less impact on pop culture, for sure! Poker Face and Just Dance have way more impact on pop culture! True, but in my opinion the tens or even hundreds of lives that were actually saved by a song like Hair or BTW or the whole album are worth more.
