ViviLittleM 3 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The best song on ARTPOP has been slaying as an album track since day one. (We won't say that the song was performing at SNL) slay Gypsy sold more than G.U.Y right ? yes :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Prism is indeed Katy's btw era but it will never touch BTW's WW sales. And BTW will never touch PRISM's single sales, streaming and radio support... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Neither was I but I still said it. I am still convinced that Americano should have been a single. It would have dominated Europe ala Alejandro and it had also the Puss In Boots exposure. It would have been Happy 0.2. No Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank Space 0 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 None of the remaining tracks from Prism will smash. LL and WoA disagress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VforVendetta 2,024 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 No Yes, the song was always charting among the highest on the album and it was one of the GP favorites. The audio was always one of the most viewed and with the exposure of Puss in Boots it would have definitely done very well as a 4th single definitely better than You and I and MTN.

The lyrics are not understandable unless you look them up. Not even for Latinos because of her bad pronunciation, and the song overall is very noisy. The Puss in Boots exposure would've helped, but it barely did. A sure hit would've done much better from exposure like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sure hit would've done much better from exposure like that.It was not pushed commercialy that's why. Also the lyrics are finex many songs in Latino's have become singles and I even can understand the lyrics and my language is neither English nor a latin one. The song was a better choice than everything else on the album and that's very obvious. The fact that people in here didn't like it doesn't change the fact that the public did. From the whole BTW album Americano was the song that everyone would never forget and would always love (ar least to all the people I've played the song).

It was definitely.not a poor single choice, only fans I'm here don't like it. Everyone, even the critics called it a highlight of BTW. :shrug: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bye 3,947 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 And BTW will never touch PRISM's single sales, streaming and radio support... Goes to show that BTW was even bigger. She has no control over how much radio supports her if they decide to not play her. Now imagine BTW singles getting Katy's radio support Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now imagine BTW singles getting Katy's radio support If Yoü and I was handled by radio like it should've been (top 3 on Pop radio for a few weeks), it'd have gone 3x or 4x platinum I think that Yoü and I's radio release was too late... the VMAs gave it so much momentum but it's better for that momentum to be a little bit later in the single cycle. It had 20M AI on Pop radio (#19) on the day of the VMAs, but it was at #5 on iTunes. Imagine, had they released it to radio a week or two earlier, it would've built around 35M AI on radio and still got the big VMA and video release boost and momentum. It would've gone #3 or #4 on iTunes instead of #5. And it should've been handled way differently in Europe and Australia. I believe that it had the potential to become a hit, because it's a great pop song after all. It just lacked WW promotion and radio momentum from The Edge of Glory which she didn't have everywhere. Just found out how mistreated Yoü and I was. It could've easily become a Top 3 (hell even #2) hit. They really should've done better radio promotion and a few talkshow performances in August and September. And the radio release should've been 2 weeks earlier..
