Disease would've been closer to 5M had it been released with the song on Friday. So it's cute. And it did mildly better than WW, and realistically that had much more promo, they went hard promoting it. Youtube just isn't the same for MV's nobody uses it, it isnt' fair comparing SL with Disease imo. 1
Snakeskinbr Posted October 31 Posted October 31 It just doesn't make sense to me that Disease is not performing better than SL. Imo Diseases is light-years ahead. Maybe riding off of ASIB helped. Still her best lead and MV in over 10 years.

IBeMe Posted October 31 Posted October 31 When i read some of yallz interpretations of a fairly straight forward MV it suddenly clicks to me why this fan base is the way it is...we're all CLEARLY theater kids, failed artists and wannabe critics and I LIVE for it so messy and complicating things for no reason. I love it so much 2

It's a good point that SL debuted with its MV on release, so it has to be factored into the distribution of streams through the opening week when comparing to Disease. I'm kind of skeptical that it will make a difference either way unless people start streaming the song more 2
IBeMe Posted October 31 Posted October 31 Made my bestie listen to the song and she said it was a little tuneless and like a bunch of electronic loud noises like EDM of back in 2011. At a certain point she stopped me and the song and asked me if i was pranking her cuz she could have sworn she heard this song in the early 10s or something as a kid I was going to show her the mv too but I just dropped her off before we got our planned ice cream. I was livid and seething but trying to hold it in 7

I just hope that the disease performance doesn't give Gaga and Interscope any wrong idea. Also, I hope she sees that most of the fans love and support this direction she's taking.
Mariah4life Posted October 31 Posted October 31 I thought that was Lady Drag Ga performing DWAS with Bruno in that video Bruno posted.

selfieclownt Posted October 31 Posted October 31 Stupid Love was the first "Gaga Returns" so it had more hype outside of the base. Yes Disease/LG7 is DarkGa but from a gp perspective GAGA already came back in fairly recent memory 1

That's why I don't think it's working much this time around as a means of getting the GP interested.

That's why I'm hoping something more left field to come, that would actually be new for her. I think we'll get it in some capacity. But if not I'll be fine with excelled "dark pop" 1

Yes Disease/LG7 is DarkGa but from a gp perspective GAGA already came back in fairly recent memory l feel the opposite. SL only came a year after ASIB era/Oscars which brought in a lot of goodwill & a new audience for Gaga. With Disease, yes she had DWAS & Joker right before, but there had not been a pop era since Chromatica almost five years ago. SL had ASIB era more recent. Gaga also didn't really nurture her pop fanbase post-2020, so because of the long break, I think there's been less hype going into LG7. She still has time to build it back up for February though. I think she should release two more songs before the album, one being the 2nd single and one a promo single, with one preferably being a collab if there is one. 1
TedLasso Posted October 31 Posted October 31 (edited) I love that Gaga is smashing with a HAC ballad atm and also living out her goth pop dream at the same time. When she said she's not subscribing to a typical era concept anymore she meant it fr Edited October 31 by TedLasso
Denim Posted October 31 Posted October 31 Stupid love is also much more digestible to the general public despite being much worse of a song. also I think the post at the top of this page is unfiltered numbers for SL and filtered for disease but could be wrong
Devin Posted October 31 Posted October 31 the plague doctor is def one of my fav looks in a while. i kinda want that character to make another appearance in a future mv. 12
