True Tea.
Sure, Ke$ha will have another massive hit, as will GaGa. However, consider Born This Way the Tik Tok of her career. It was a huge hit, fastest selling digital song, etc etc, but its going to be hard to top it, and I just don't see Gaga being able to do it with the direction that her music is going in.
If she doesn't play it safe this next era, her career will spike down drastically. She won't "flop", persay, but it could be her lowest sales.

Sadly, I don't think so.
All the singles after BTW underperformed based on Gaga's standards. It seems like the public has kind of moved on from her. Unless she releases an absolutely amazing and addictive dance track that has everyone talking, she won't be breaking any more records any time soon.

People were saying the same thing about Rihanna beating Umbrella and Gaga beating Poker Face. Two things. We Found Love/Bad Romance. It's happened before and it could happen again. The song may not be the biggest of 20whenever she releases, but who's the say that it wont be bigger than Tik Tok?

Obviously this is your opinion and all. But it kills me when people say that the public has moved on from her, but of course they will definitely buy her single if she has a killer dance track. So either they moved on, or they're still checking for her.

Yes, but We Found Love and Bad Romance STILL weren't as big as Tik Tok.
Tik Tok has sold 15+ Million digital copies WW and 11+ Million in the US. One of the most popular television shows changed it's OPENING SEQUENCE to the song for an episode.
Come back to me when Ke$ha can even come CLOSE to topping that record again.

No, she has peaked. All the early and only success that happened to BTW was thanks to TFM hype.

Well she obviously wont sell that much digitally as digital sales themselves have gone down, but who's to say that her next single wont outpeak that on the next latest format is all i'm saying. And even so Bad Romance is still bigger than Tik Tok, you can deny it all you want. If you want to go there no one talks about Tik Tok, but they sure as hell know what a Bad Romance is.

She won't break any records with it. She just doesn't have that much public appeal anymore.
She's assured a of a Top 5 debut + If it's a great song, it will sell well over time though.

I'm sorry but thats just not true, lol.
Bad Romance is only remembered for it's eccentric video. You can ask anyone to sing Bad Romance to you and all they'll be able to sing is the "Ra Ra Ra hook". Ask anyone to sing Tik Tok and all the lyrics roll off the tounge.
Irregardless, I'm not here to talk about Ke$ha and i don't understand why people keep dragging her into this especially when me, a KE$HA stan, said she's peaked.

Thriller is remembered for it's video but it's still remembered. Kesha's video is not anywhere near as Iconic as Bad Romance nor is the song.
Sorry but you'll just have to suck it up and lose this one.
FYI: Saying she's peaked doesn't make you any more of a fan

You both are being delusional. Yes, Tik Tok was a bigger commercial success. Bad Romance still is more memorable, thanks to whatever reason you want.

I realize that, but overall Bad Romance >>>
And when time comes I seriously doubt people will remember Tik Tok. My issue is when people act like because someone has peaked in other areas that they some how can't break records and do all sorts of other things. She had already peaked with TFM but yet she was still breaking records with BTW  Where's the logic? Half of you only have the mental capacity to say that she has peaked and move on to your faves because they'd never have the opportunity to do as such.

As I said before, she broke that record thanks to TFM hype. That happens to every act if they have had a huge era before.
Oh, and don't come with that nonsense because all of my faves have had a single just as big as Bad Romance or even bigger. Don't expect all the people to think like you do, cause we are not stans.

Sure, they might know Tik Tok's lyrics, but if you ask who sings Tik Tok, they wouldn't know. If you ask who sings Bad Romance, they'll know Lady Gaga.

You always try so hard.
Twickenham Stadium in London sold out in a minute.
Demand in South Africa for her two stadium dates crashed servers.
Biggest concert in Thailand.
Second biggest concert in South Korea.
$44,000,000 off her Asian leg alone.
Not much public appeal at all.

Now that's just BS. Unless your faves are Michael and Madonna, they have not had BR-like successful singles. The type of success Bad Romance saw is a once in a career type of success that sets you up for life.

I don't even know who your faves are  Not like I care either.
What i'm addressing is the fact that there's so many people in here quick to claim she's peaked (in which I do believe in a sense she has), but cannot quite possibly wonder if she'd beat a sales record set by herself. Don't take my stanning for delusion because I don't truly believe that Bad Romance is the best song in the world. It isn't, i'm just saying that yall come in here quick to say she's peaking. Which we already knew.

Then if you already know and agree, what bothers you?
Nobody really knows at the end. But logic tells us that she is not doing it anytime soon, considering the reason why she made it in the first place.

Now you're contradicting yourself. You said the reason BTW blew up was 'cause of hype from her previous era, which had Bad Romance, meaning Bad Romance is why she's selling out stadiums and why BTW the song broke records. Bad Romance saw success that catapulted Gaga beyond any of our imaginations.
Logic tells us nothing because your logic is quite illogical.
Gaga's fanbase is still the biggest fanbase in the world. Her first week sales could easily exceed BTWs.
