I'm not sure you can call it a failure. Well, you could but that would make you retarded.

She was #3 for two weeks in a row, without any promotion what so ever. She's done no promotion for Born This Way in the UK, yet she managed to stay in the top 3 for 2 weeks and she's still in the top 10.

Besides, I'm really not sure why you are praying she fails. She's never done anything wrong to you. Gaga owns her haters every time, period.

as me and others that are not gaga die hards have said before,gaga was never gonna have longevity as her outragous ways was always gonna end up becoming desperate and attention seeking.

i also think gaga concentrates more on her videos than the quality of the record.

The song sold 1 million copies globally in 5 days, 1 million in the US alone in 10 days, regardless of the UK chart which counts for jack all this doesn't mean she has no longevity.

the uk charts easily the top 5 biggest fact,also its had alot of promotion on the internet plus its lady gaga so it should have automatically have been number 1 over here if her popularity isnt sliding a little bit at least.

She has no longevity. She's only been around since 2008 - that's nothing. If she's still making big records in 2018 you can start talking about longevity.

it's almost as if this thread was about the UK or something.

The funny thing is though, Gaga is more successful now than she ever has been.

She's #1 on the world chart, that speaks volumes itself

LOL get real! She's sold millions of downloads of the song worldwide, the fact that it is #3 without any promotion (not even a music video yet) is absolutely amazing.

no, her tiara(or telephone) is definitely slipping after this crappy new song which she built up to be a life changing anthem!

suddenly we can't trust anything she claims about her music. Frankly, she seems deluded and up herself. Believing all the hype about herself no doubt.

[Jayson]

Let's all just agree she's shite and leave it there.

[Stu]

I support the above motion.

[Shaun]

this thread makes me want to tear down my poster. I am so sick and ****ing tired of Monsters.

My take...

People can call it a failure BECAUSE of her success everywhere else in the world; it charted at #3 in the UK, so in comparison to places where it went to #1, it flopped. The UK has quite a large, popular music scene (lots of British artists are popular around the world) so IMO it is a bit of a failure for Lady GaGa to only chart at #3 when she managed #1 in so many other places. A music video being released weeks after the song is not going to get it to #1. All it will do is improve its chart life - similarly to Britney Spears' new song, the only reason for releasing a video later, is because she knows the song isn't good enough to sustain popularity and momentum for very long. The reason for that is simple, it's an anthem aimed at a minority market, and not aimed at the masses, which in all honesty is what pop music should be about - capitalising on popularity. She's not going to do that by writing second rate gay anthems with cringe worthy lyrics and a throwback to the '80s beat. I've heard the song twice and I don't hate it, I just don't like it either, I just find it a bit embarrassing to listen to and I suspect that's the opinion of a lot of other people too.

Totally agree with this, the UK is quite a good place to get number 1 and she didn't. Its because the UK isn't as far up lady gaga's ass as the US, and this song as said by Zee isn't for the masses. I find this song embarassing, the lyrics are so cringeworthy its unbelieveable. She hasn't started her decline because she has number 1's all over the place it's just this song hasn't done as well as expected in the UK because its just so bad, having said that it did get to number 3 here and thats still a good position, but i suspect that was more because it was Gaga than because it was a good song, had it have been as good as her other songs like Pokerface i think it would have reached number 1. So she missed this time but i think and hope the next song is alot better than the mess she just released.
