Especially since it had a generally positive reception. I think she and her team want to have this sort of "music talking for itself era" especially since DWAS became a hit with little to no effort from Interscope. But with a heavy pop song like Disease, they definitely needed to probably help mould it into being something more than what it's become. At least it's a bop though. Her team treat Ms.Disease just like Mr.TheCure but with a music video. The names! What a match! 1
Denim Posted November 7 Posted November 7 Disease has been doing so much better on radio than I thought it would. The fact that it's her best pop radio solo debut since born this way (on billboard pop radio chart) is wild. DWAS really gained her some momentum back at radio, hopefully this doesn't destroy that momentum… idk, everyone I know who's heard the song likes it, so hopefully it's not a net negative for the momentum
John Slayne Posted November 7 Posted November 7 6 minutes ago, Denim said: We are at the phase in Gaga's career (since 2018) where a Gaga song either completely smashes (Shallow, DWAS, ROM, AWRUTW) or completely bombs (Stupid Love, Disease, hold my hand) she's quite unique in this situation, where I feel like many artists 10+ years in their career that are still relevant tend to get "decent" sized hits, but with Gaga it's all out or all in; which is kinda the fun of stanning her- you never know what you're gonna get but even her 'bombs' go Platinum. this is SL certifications: Australia (ARIA)[172] 2× Platinum 140,000‡ Brazil (Pro-Música Brasil)[173] Diamond 160,000‡ Canada (Music Canada)[49] 2× Platinum 160,000‡ France (SNEP)[174] Platinum 200,000‡ Italy (FIMI)[175] Gold 35,000‡ Norway (IFPI Norway)[176] Gold 30,000‡ Poland (ZPAV)[177] Platinum 50,000‡ Portugal (AFP)[178] Gold 5,000‡ Spain (PROMUSICAE)[179] Gold 30,000‡ United Kingdom (BPI)[54] Platinum 600,000‡ United States (RIAA)[180] Platinum 1,000,000‡ the flop is exaggerated on ATRL 4 2

Bad News Posted November 7 Posted November 7 They are inevitably gonna have to relaunch the era in 2025, so her team better be ******* ready next time around. I really hope they go all out on release week, with a video on the same day, physicals, playlisting, radio and all the cheap tricks. If the song somehow catches on, it will have some longevity. If not, at least we will have a not-so-tragic peak. Spoiler Decided to reread the whole post before pressing "submit reply" and it's kinda giving ...but a liddo can dream. 7
Aston Martin Posted November 7 Posted November 7 The fact that Disease is having really good updates on pop radio on the week where it's supposed to be experiencing the rolling effect is really good tbh. Hopefully it can just remain stable elsewhere.

I'm not worried about her getting roles. If she has something in the pipeline, I wouldn't expect any news until after awards season. It's not a good idea to associate new projects with a flop. If FAD smashed we would probably know by now.

Just because yall hate SL, doesn't mean SL is a bomb like yall believe to be. PI, MTN, and GUY are the only Gaga's flop singles from her pop album era. SMASH Hit Moderate Hit Underperformance Flop Bomb I would put SL in Moderate Hit at best... Edited November 7 by babyforlife typo
IBeMe Posted November 7 Posted November 7 Stupid Larva was a bomb A first single post ASIB boost doing what it did on the charts is an indictment of the song itself. Let's not be delulu just cuz it went platinum in the streaming age where even songs that never charted can go multi platinum over time Now come on now gworls. Let's get it together okaaayy?
Slayed Posted November 7 Posted November 7 Americano, it's your turn to become the next viral BTW smash An album truly ahead of its time

She likely just wants to move on.
Almodusa Posted November 7 Posted November 7 1 minute ago, Matthew said: Good point. I don't even think she'll submit FAD for original song. She likely just wants to move on. Well the deadline to submit was November 1st and it was already on JFAD's FYC page by Warner Bros so it already was. 1

anastaciabby Posted November 7 Posted November 7 she's doing fine after a historical election where a dictator won. worry more about having the right to complain about the album rollout when he's put in office 1
Doctor Dick Posted November 7 Posted November 7 12 minutes ago, HausOfPunk said: How is Disease doing? Is it giving DWAS or Joker 2? It's #55 with over 2M and a little decrease of 3%. So it's been in the #55-#45 range for a few days now so it's fine. If radio keeps having stellar updates this could go and become a Top 20 hit if the streams stay as they are for a while. Or they can decrease a little and the song can smash on radio then we can have a cute Top 20 hit as well.
