Times when a single outshined the lead single

VS

 


I'm sure no one can argue about Toxic' stellar critical and commercial performance, even I completely forgot MATM was the lead single from ITZ after a while. Both are absolute bops tho.

 

Any other examples? :gaycatina1:

Why this is not upscaled to 4k is beyond me. All of the back to basics videos should have been remastered to 4k I swear she has the worst team ever. Useless team if you ask me.

I love it but it is not better than Houdini.

Imagine saying Beautiful outshined Dirrty when it is evidently not the case. Both songs are equally impactful in their own right.

Everyday Life era only had Orphans / Arabesque as a double lead single so it doesn't count.

You're actually kind of right. Poker face>Just Dance, Million Reasons>Perfect Illusion, ROM>Stupid Love. Idk if Telephone did better than Bad Romance but it certainly did well. DWUW was a disaster and I'm pretty certain that it didn't out chart Applause. Judas has had a resurgence but did it really do better than BTW?
