People hate the song with a passion, they refuse to buy it, and refuse to watch the music video, but the radio keeps playing her every ****ing hour. The payola is strong with this one. MTN had similar sales and they barely played it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatrickMonster 6,493 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I don't even think that Birthday will reach MTN's sales lol.... We were wondering about the huge radio plays vs low sales with Stay the Night, Daylight (or even DWUW a bit lol) BUT I've never seen a song selling THAT bad, and STILL getting played THAT MUCH. Its just absolutely ridiculous. And whats even funnier is, that Birthday was close, or even got negative updates like a week ago, and I thought "OK maybe they realised people dont like it" but no... suddenly it keeps getting 1,000-1,500+ updates while falling on iTunes like a rock. Dont you guys think its interesting? Oh and this is happening while Dark Horse is still at 117.000 AI... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 It's just ridiculous the payola is so obvious here; it was getting negative updates less than a week ago. NOTHING has improved for her on iTunes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birthday will never hit MTN sales; It hasn't sold 1/3 of MTN sales for the moment.

I love katycats' hypocrisy when they say Birthday is a hit while them claimed MTN was a huge flop ^^ Because unfortunately they can say Bday was successful on radio. Never mind the fact that a hit should be one because people want to listen to it not because a few radio directors shove it down the audience's throat after being paid to do so.

Most of them only stan for her because of her great chart successes, so when its gone, whats left? At least we are stanning for Gaga for different reasons not for the sales...

You just have to read G.U.Y. video's comments, that's the reunion of Katycats and haters Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
artpopmess 369 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 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.. I bet they thought country radio would have been more supportive. I remember she did a couple of country radio interviews while she was in Nebraska filming the video. Also she did promote in the UK but no one was here for that sound then. It would have done better in 2013 with all that folk/indie sound becoming more popular don't follow my instagram (trying out reverse psychology) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariano 958 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 And BTW will never touch PRISM's single sales, streaming and radio support... BTW single sold 8.2M in 2011 WW (as much as Rolling in the deep) While Roar sold 9.7M in 2013 which was SALES + Streaming. So Gaga had 1 hit as huge as Katy's roar and DH but yeah.. If BTW had as much radio support as either of these 2 WW (not just in the USA) It'd be at 15M sales by now ^^ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A song struggling to go Gold with close to 100M AI To them : Gaga not being in top 20 = A huge flop, she's over ! Katy not being in top 20 = She's doing good ! She's the Queen ! Like I said before, Katy is living her BTW era. She's in the spotlight, but she shows off the first signs of weakness... It's going to be hard for her to return strong with another album if she doen't evolve. People are clearly getting tired of her generic things. Bithday is the proof...
