Luc 4,775 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 really ? More played than Love The Way you Lie, Alejandro and California Gurls ? No. Man Down was not a hit.. It was just played on Televisions and some radio stations . Moderate success at most. Man Down was a hit in West-Europe.. There were countries WW where the song did moderately well and it was also a lead single. Still yes, the views were impressive for its performance. One song doesn't mean anything by itself anyway. Then why are we crediting Gaga for one or two big streaming songs for their success? Only Judas and Bad Romance got impressive streams for their success. Songs like Born This Way, Paparazzi and The Edge of Glory show that Gaga's streaming power isn't that big - they're all HUGE hits which should've gotten more views than they got. Katy has monstrous views this era, and I'd say that the current streaming queen is her! Roar is still Top 10 on VEVO by the way! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katy has monstrous views this era, and I'd say that the current streaming queen is her! Roar is still Top 10 on VEVO by the way!Paparazzi had very big streams for that time and considering how long it is (150 with all versions combined). Born This Way has a lot of streams considering that it had an 85M views audio + a 20M views performance that was released on Vevo before the video and that it was very frontloaded + the video was not appealing to the public. TEOG also had a 50M views audio, the video would have much more if it was an interesting one that drew the attention of the public, something it never did I'm afraid. Gaga has A LOT of examples that prove her streaming power. Man Down was also a small hit here. The song was not a big hit nowhere though. I just looked its chart positions.

artpopmess 369 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 It's sad that Gaga didnt release anything in 2012. If she had she would have been bigger on Spotify and Youtube don't follow my instagram (trying out reverse psychology) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariano 958 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Yes it reached #1 here for 5 weeks, it was really huge. It's one of the biggest hit of Rihanna in France (it'd say third or forth!) It was summer 2011 not 2010 oh you are right :) Maybe I am wrong. I am still sure it's not more than 2M WW tho, which is not really a hit Maybe just in a few countries (excluding UK, USA etc.. aka theb iggest markets) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's true, if you have a bad/uninteresting video and you get less streams because of that, it means that your streaming power is worse BTW had 6 weeks at #1 and was one of the most hyped songs of all time. It failed to garner many youtube views. The audio has nothing to do with 'streaming power' you're talking about, all the audio shows is how much of a hit it was, tbh And Man Down was a big hit in some West-European countries: Top 3 in Belgium, the Netherlands and #1 in France..

jonathan88 0 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 How do you think the alleged Gaga/Britney collaboration would do? I'm not so sure if it's real or just a big rumor. I hope it's real, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
