Badgalbriel Posted October 27 Posted October 27 Yeah, she only needs a viral tiktok moment. That's what makes a hit nowadays. She needs to release the video so people can dance to it. 1

They like minimalistic, bland songs like DWAS, Taylor, Billie etc. Disease is a very complex, layered and aggressive song I feel like it is hard to click with Disease. I personally love it, because it's a classic Gaga song on 2024 but its lyrics and vocal style make it not as easy to connect with it. This could be said for most of her initial hits but back then she was out there selling the idea left and right. Let's not call DWAS bland just because it is having success. It's a duet between two music legends, with a relatable topic, amazing vocals and production, It also had a semi-viral moment (Gaga's dancing at the break). The lyrics can be a little cheesy, but besides that is an instant classic.

She keeps releasing music that doesnt sound like anything out there. Its obvious that if she wants hits she needs to release music that follow the musical trend. I love Disease and her music but its just a fact. Yeah, I suggest liddos get comfortable with the idea of LG7 not being commercially friendly NOW, otherwise they are just going to ruin the era for themselves 1
Denim Posted October 27 Posted October 27 Z100 is surprisingly showering Disease with love. Aren't radio deals usually one day only? they've already played it 4 times today, and they took FOREVER to pick up DWAS. Would've expect 1, maybe 2 spins tbh 3

Blue Velvet Posted October 27 Posted October 27 maybe she's inspired by beyonce and wants minimal promo this era
GraceRandolph Posted October 27 Posted October 27 Sorry, but if they weren't planning on a commercial push they should've put out something a lot more daring. 1 1
Mikeymoonshine Posted October 27 Posted October 27 3 minutes ago, justin. said: What I'm about to say is not copium, it's something I thought about before the flopping: Once it became apparent the song was being released at the end of October, I became suspicious/confused. The Christmas freeze is about to begin. While the full-freeze doesn't take effect until December, we start to see Christmas songs rapidly rise on November 1st. I think she chose an abrasive song as a teaser because she didn't expect longevity through the holiday season, but she wanted to give the fans a taste of what to expect with the album. The more GP-friendly song will come at the beginning of January. Now, whether they thought the single would have at least a week of success... who knows. But I think part of the situation we're in was planned. She didn't have any other time to release. Obviously she didn't expect JFAD to bomb so that and HQ needed to go first. This was the earliest she could release without it clashing with the JFAD promo schedule (which was probably meant to go on longer lol). Disease has Halloween vibes so she put it out before Halloween and it has a little over a month before the Christmas freeze. I do think you could be right that she has a stronger single lined up for around January though. Her last two eras she's released the strongest option as the second single and put the most effort into that song. So she might do that again.

Is this what she does for her beloved fanbase who is responsible for her succes ? She has no problem promoting her jazz or other venture. She did the same with chromatica The era started two days ago 2

Mikeymoonshine Posted October 27 Posted October 27 Disease deserves at least to be a minor hit. Like idk maybe it will get more of an audience longterm as people do seem to like it. It's not about being a "success stan" I don't need anymore smashes from her it's about her work being appreciated and being able to find it's audience. I definitely think there's an audience for disease that isn't just us. Anyway I hope we at least get the video soon. I'm still hoping it's tomorrow. 1

Abracadabra Posted October 27 Posted October 27 It kinda says it all that two days ago the fanbase was universally praising the song as her best work in years and now it's getting dragged because the numbers aren't high enough for y'all Stan culture in a nutshell 6
PlERRE Posted October 27 Posted October 27 I made a playlist but I'm not sure if putting Disease between songs works or if I should put 2 songs in between.

LewisK Posted October 27 Posted October 27 (edited) When I'm on ATRL, the experience of Disease is sooo negative and stressful: everyone complaining, OGHs doing the absolute most, and almost every fan and hater OBSSESED and PANICKING about the numbers. When I'm offline, this is one of the best moments as a Gaga fan in YEARS (maybe a decade). Disease is everything we could've asked from Gaga: a mix of TFM/BTW/Artpop, just in time for Halloween and with killer and dark visuals (a cool photoshoot and a promising video that we know it's coming sooner or later). It played at a club last night and it was an EXTASY. I'd like to see her invested like the good old days, but we (myself included) need to move on and enjoy the rest. I hope she doesn't get affected by crazy online rants and she can feel the love we should be giving to her now that she's finally giving us what we were thriving for. Edited October 27 by LewisK 3 1

Like those songs didn't really "take off" but they did have somewhat of an audience. So I still hope that happens for disease at least.
