Klou 2,414 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 A 200k difference in sales won't be enough the 100M Al and 8M streams that AATB will be having by next week. Although it most likely going to have a massive radio deal so it'll just depend on streaming.If it was only based on sales, then yes. She will almost certainly have a radio deal. And I have to correct myself. She may not debut at #1 since she may debut with radio only, like she did last time. She would likely chart high the second week.

chris777 112 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Taylord will chart high with her new single. And if the song sticks with the public it can go #1 eventually just like Roar did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whispering 18,865 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 They do actually and let's just disagree. Why would you push a promo single? It was dirty tactics none wanted to watch it on youtube and none even knows the song to this fay and it was number 8 on the charts. Applause was proven as a payola product. By the way. you I like we can disagree and we are very civil. On the other hand, I think DWUW did awesome for no video. It's proved a song can nearly reach top 10 w/out a video. All big names coming out with new albums have promo singles. Why push a promo single? Why not? All debut singles have a certain amount of legal payola behind them, this much is true. Still, Applause stayed in the top 5 on iTunes for months. It MORE than earned it's spot. The fact remains that a single sent to radio with an adds date can't be compared to a promo single. One has nothing to do with the other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 WW as of last week : 1,860,000. US pretty close to 1,100,000. Disappointing nmbrs for Miley for sure. Even ARTPOP did similiar WW ARTPOP did more Worldwide. I'm kind of surprised that Miley's WW numbers aren't any better, when you look at how well she did in the US. She doesn't even have a 2 to 1 ratio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogFood 1,649 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Ha. DWUW had radio privilege. Those temp songs dropped out by Thursay/Friday. It still didn't rise into the top 10. DWUW didn't even enter after the AMAs with one of the most discussed performances. Besides, it was still gaining spins when it's digital fall started. I don't care to argue this. It's hard to look at it objectively for many fans. Objectively Katy's music is more public oriented than Gaga's. That doesn't make it bad or basic. Just different. Popularity=/=Baisc. Katy is a safe bank for radio. They know people turn the dial less often when her songs come on. Gaga alienated the public (note the HUGE drop from BTW to Applause's debut). Katy's hits have sold consistently more since Born This Way and she contiues to deliver smashes. Roar alone sold more than all singles on ARTPOP combined. I think Dark Horse did too. Her lessor successes this era followed two of her biggest hits ever. Of course radio was eager to play them, that's just common sense. Airplay may push her music but it's because she's a proven hit maker. Blaming airplay for Katy's success and Gaga's decline in cheap. Katy earned her presence on US radio with a string of massive hits. The "bias" didn't start until after E.T anyway after she delivered four consecutive number 1 hits. Gaga let her presence decline because she followed the music she loved. Neither route is bad, but let's call a spade a spade. Katy's music resonates with the public more right now as proven by her sales, airplay, box office recites, online streams, and YouTube views. I just think villionizing another artist for being successful makes our fanbase look bitter and cheap.

Yves 1,891 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Can you explain something to me? Why is everybody on here so jealous or hate Katy? Seriously, I think she is ok I am by no mean a fan [i am in Australia I am actually attending gaga's concert next week but not going to Katy's] Did Gaga fans hate/dislike Katy when they were both slaying or is just because Katy is having a good era atm compared to Gaga's era? What has Katy done which is so bad - by all means I am not defending Katy's fans I have seen some of their comments and have not been impressed? Off topic, bro. I guess it's because she's more successful with her TD 2.0 songs compared to Gaga's era with ha not-bad-but-not-also-good songs. She keeps serving them songs then people & radio eat it up.

Mills 446 Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 1 Meghan Trainor - All About That Bass 1.0000 2 Jessie J, Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj - Bang Bang 0.4971 No mercy. The more Taylor waits for her lead single, the less her chances are at getting a #1. BB now 0.4887 on iTunes. The gap is getting bigger, and AATB should also pass BB on overall radio in a couple of days. It's still getting the biggest overall update - 44.244 (+ 5.964). If the rumours come true, next week's competition for the top will be cut-throat. Too bad, Meghan wouldn't have the luxury of the VMAs. A televised performance of AATB will make it unstoppable.
