Shade should be focused upon Lady selling out and making generic music for a charting? She is now comfortably in the same boat as Katy et al.

The only country Million Reasons was a 'hit' is in the US and it took performing at the superbowl, 3 months of promo and discounts to make it happen :joker:

"why tf is she making jazz music she's a pop star"
"No not this kind of pop music, why is she doing country"
"omg can you believe she's doing pop music what a sellout"

And on the other side of the coin she was lauded as the one pop girl to never cater to the masses/didn't release the music for a hit etc etc. It's more an issue to the stans than the casual listener.

MB. 21-04-2017 09:32 PM

Yes, imagine needing to do promo to make something a hit, what a scandal

She's always done both though :shrug:

The Fame was filled to the brim with radio-friendly, generic pop tracks

DouglasS 21-04-2017 09:34 PM

Welp at her dropping the price of her single after 4 days
Next she'll flog her album at 99p to flog some sales - oh wait shes already done that before

There's doing promo and then there's desperation. Her aldi Chainsmokers song is another example of how desperate she has become </3

If Gags wants to make this a hit she needs to get her streaming #s up. It's flopping on Spotify and YouTube

So where do you draw the line? Should she not do shows like the super bowl as to not offend people like yourself who don't like her anyway?

Yeah 100%, I said earlier in the week I didn't think it'd chart well because of streaming alone

Just seems a bit like regression at this point

It wont because the general public does not care about Lady Gaga in 2017, this is what her fans need to accept

It's #51 in the US, WW and #60 in the UK, how is that flopping after a week…?

I mean, half the songs in the chart sound like The Chainsmokers nowadays, so if she wanted a quick success, then taking that and making it a little more Gaga-y wasn't the worst choice. After all, if she managed to get a pretty big hit (...just not over here) with Million Reasons, which sounds nothing like The Chainsmokers, surely that kind of proves the opposite?

On Spotify it's below a bunch of Kendrick album tracks, Chained To The Flop, even Closer which was released like 9 months ago despite being added to the biggest Spotify playlist, on YouTube even Lana is doing her

Yeah I do understand

Idk she said that she knew people just don't want more serious stuff (like Dope etc) and she was thinking about just giving people what they want to listen to so maybe The Cure is that

MB. 21-04-2017 09:41 PM

Isn't the whole point of this that it's flopping on streaming and that's the only reason that it didn't chart high

This is what I thought when I first heard it, but then I think so many people complained about her Joanne era that maybe she just released this for them? Like is she actually reverting to a different style, or is this single just a one off fan-service type thing?
