She's feeling healthy and happy again. This era is a true gift.

Sabrina is doing double duty on snl during Grammys voting weekend. Hope Gaga has some tricks up her sleeves to boost mayhem as well

I feel more and more confident DWAS will survive Taylor's album bomb

Abracadabra would be top 3 if released this week btw

 

TDD - Day 15 (Wednesday)

Global: #42 (-3) — 2,188,859
USA: #107 (-16) — 366,279 
UK: #41 (-3) — 143,214 

 

Disease - Day 15 (Friday)

Global: #82 (-17) — 1,811,589
US: #160 (-20) — 378,148
UK: #43 (+1) — 135,167

 

Spotify Totals after 15 days:

Disease: 40.606.103

TDD: 36.436.749

 

Basically, TDD is doing on par with Disease: Disease had a stronger debut, but TDD has a slightly better longevity.

 

However, Disease later got boosted by Abra, Mayhem, Coachella and Copacabana; while TDD will only get Halloween's boost which will be way more limited. Plus Disease has respectable recurrents because the fandom is streaming it due to it being a fan-favourite, which TDD won't have. Although I think TDD will have some recurrents from the GP (which Disease doesn't have).

 

All in all, everything is pointing out at TDD having similar streams and certifications as Disease, but with much lower chart-peaks.

 

The absolutely worst scenario would be TDD becoming the new The Cure or Stupid Love (below 70k/daily): ergo songs that aren't streamed neither by the fandom, nor the GP. But I hope it can at least become the new Hold My Hand (around 150k daily). The best scenario we can hope for is TDD becoming the new Rain On Me (around 250-300k/daily).

Survive the top 10 or top 50? 

Chinese liddos' SOTY voting finale is happening between Vanish Into You and Applause. These ARTPOPsters are really crazy.

nobody would care if the mv didn't premiere during the grammys tbh 

Yeah it's kinda over for TDD but it's a 4th single and its decent streams (still pulling 2M daily) are going to pad Mayhem nicely, which I can see surpassing BTW and TFM (EP) on the Billboard 200 in number of weeks given all the numerous tracks pulling good streams. 

 

Godga's biggest albums on the BB200 having come from the latter half of her career (one of them being her most recent) would be a flex.

Not to be a downer but I hope we don't need to revisit this specific quote come next January

 

I'd say it's not over until after Halloween 

 

What have we learned?

 

Collabs are the only way a lady gaga does well in the US post 2017, specifically with ballads. 
 

If she goes hard, and gives an Abracadabra, striking a balance between a classic EDM pop "gaga" sound and GP flair, she can get a hit outside of the US. 
 

This is where she is in her career, and that's okay. More than okay. Better than most lol

Soemone used AI to enhance the photo. I'm also sick of the fake "Meet and Greet" AI pics thats everywhere now.

You're using the same ignorant logic OGHs are using.

 

She can get a solo hit, it just needs to be the right song. I still stand by the idea that VIY/GOE would've gone top 10 easily with the right promotion/MV...

Well I don't think slightly better than Disease longevity wise is accurate considering one went from almost 5M to 1.8M (aka losing >50% streams) in two weeks whereas TDD started at 1.5M and is now doing near 2.2M (aka increasing by ~50%).

I think the trajectory matters here - this will be akin to Hold My Hand in the sense that it starts with underhwelming numbers but ends up outperforming. I think it will be bigger than Disease and Stupid Love in the long-run, but obviously smaller than Rain On Me and Abracadabra as far as her pop singles this decade go.
