fan base Lady Gaga

[DonnieDarko]

Godease will forever be iconic, her best received lead single in years critics wise. Such a banger.

Regarding the comment about "Disease being too loud or not commercial enough," I think some of you might not remember how Poker Face or Bad Romance felt when they first came out. At the time, there was literally nothing like them on MTV/radio. Bad Romance especially—more than Poker Face—was downright "weird" to the average pop listener. But they clicked and ultimately transformed the pop landscape forever.

 

That said, we can just acknowledge that the general public didn't connect with Disease, or at least not enough to make it a hit and our fandom is almost completely dead. There's no need to make excuses imo

Yeah, I don't think Disease is really that radio unfriendly. It's more mainstream sounding than Perfect Illusion imo.

The sentiment that there was nothing like Gaga's early hits out there before hers is really played out. Obviously she stood out as evidenced by her smashing but that was more about her sensibility and songwriting, it wasn't like she invented a new sound. Her, Kat Deluna, and JLo shared a sample library be so fr.

 

Comparing the public reception of disease to BR released during her first career peak is pointless

Some of y'all are so annoying with the constant doomposting and nonsensical setup threads and posts

 

 

And then they come here and complain that the base is barely alive. Y'all made everyone run away with your stupid takes and reasons why Disease is a bad song ffs

Is the AI thread a setup thread? I thought it was funny and wanted to lighten the mood. Not everything is so serious.

She didn't invent a new sound, but it wasn't mainstream. Saying that JLO released songs similiar to Bad Romance (or Poker Face) is... a reach 

 

Disease isn't any more "alternative" or uncommercial than Bad Romance was. Gaga has never catered to radio or commercial trends, but as @GraceRandolph pointed out, Perfect Illusion was less palatable than Disease.

 

That being said, Disease is still an incredible song and no amount of floppage can change that 

 

 

[PMM]

some of you need to act the same as you did when godsese was released. there are no more tears to cry, we need to stream this song for life

Do y'all think Gar will actually headline Coachella? The announcement is imminent since they deleted everything from their IG

 

 

She opened the first year of trump presidency with superbowl, Coachella and JWT. So it's only fair she opens his second presidency with the same set of things again. Harbinger of doom indeed. 

[Human Fly]

Why y all even worried about Lg7 

All the music we've heard from it was 10/10. Literally. 

Music will be good so lets hope commercial success will follow

[Europe]

Can't wait to have this flawless 2010'd bop already

 

[Giorgoc]

Disease is still that *****.

 

I was legit listening to it yesterday on a loop for almost the entire day. I haven't been that obsessed with Gaga since BTW and to a lesser extend, John Wayne.

[duybeeGAshantiGA]

Lmao not Azealia Banks doing liddos' job with those tweets. She is fighting for Disease saying it's Gaga's best song and everything, but we know she will lash Gags again in a few months

Radio update?

US Radio Update

 

6. (=) Die With A Smile - 58.18m (+0.38)
72. (+1) Disease - 14.37m (+0.01)

[Human Fly]

The way this debuted with 87M even tho budget is 250M is crazy. 

Flopped worse than Joker 2 but noone seems to care. It was so obvious the industry wanted to finish Todd or Joaquin and started this hate train. 

 

Sadly Gaga seems to effected the most even tho she's innocent in this case.

 

 

[RideOrDie]

[B-Luke]

That bad huh?

 

If a collab of them is true and released as a single, I wonder how well it will do.

Ridley Scott needs to retire, but it's good that all these flops make JFAD look better in comparison.

I feel like 2025 is going to be a plot twist and be a surprisingly iconic year for Gaga. Positive LG7 reception, positive Wednesday reception, a tour, and hopefully an announcement of a Tarantino film along with a reverse HOG Oscar nom surprise.
