It makes sense. I think I posted a few days ago (not sure if it ever went through given the servers though ) that I was skeptical about the insiders saying she was having setbacks with Interscope regarding the material and that was causing delays, but maybe there was some truth behind it and this track was their meet in the middle. Like they're happy to have no notions with LG7 and let her do what she wants with it, but they wanted this to have some kind of notch on the success belt before the album roll-out happens.

 

Just intrigued to see how that ties together depending on what their plan is with the LG7 release. I don't have a huge clue how playlisting and radio deals work in the US vs. here in the UK, but unless the song is a mega-hit, they wouldn't still have a song from August of a respective year in regular rotation, say, the January or February the following year. At least you'd hear it a lot less. Obviously the release of this doesn't need to imminently bleed into LG7, makes no sense to if they have hope this will take off and be a massive hit, but in the essence of meeting in the middle, it'd make sense to somewhat ride the wave while they can.

If it becomes a big radio hit, it'll be getting considerable airplay through the fall in US. Radio here can be slow and hang onto songs for awhile if they have good callout scores. (Hard to tell until we get some though.)

I don't want a surprise release, I just also don't want a single far out in advance. 2-3 weeks from release for an announcement is good by me. 

Everything about this opening intro was perfection  

I agree with y'all, i'd rather she does traditional album rollout.

 

Also, just noticed the new atrl banner Thank you mods or wtv does that, looks great. 

Wohahahaha, finally I can access to my beloved base 🥳🥳🥳🥳

And it looks like we'll be ending the day with 5.4 million views and 528k likes in the first 24 hours on the MV

No, her energy will be taken by Joker promo, if she releases something now there will be no promo.

if I think Love Me Right is one of Gaga's best works, will I like LG7?

I really don't mean it as shade, but could this even happen? I understand why it works for Billie, but most young people don't really look up to Gaga anymore. Unless, somehow, they manage to make her super cool again with the youngsters. The fact that it may be a super experimental album will also drive some people away. I'm sure numbers will be good since she has such a huge fanbase. But all tracks above 100M kinda sounds like a reach.

 

Prove me wrong, queen.

It worked for her because she released 10 songs album. 

 

Happier than ever is longer album and many album tracks didnt achieved that. 

 

If LG7 is 10-12 songs long visual album then its possible with right effort.

I'm hoping she can squeeze a lead at least, I'm remembering those IG photos she shared recently, I feel they were sooo LG7 coded, that black hair 

Regardless, I will try not to think much about LG7 for now and enjoy DWAS  It deserves all my attention

I'd be surprised if it does 8m. I'm guessing between 5-6m. 

Just seen MTV posting. A VMA performance hint?

They always baits from Gaga, but I could see her overshadowing Trisha's Vanguard presenting 

 

She's there again tonight
