You actually believe Gaga and her team don't want her LEAD SINGLE FROM HER 7TH ALBUM to be a hit? 

well, judging only by their efforts to sell it as a hit? yes, I do believe that

The wheel of excuses gets bigger and bigger every day 

The wheel is now so big it could destroy a small town. Visual of the monsters coming at us with their excuses:

 

[Cheap Thrills 9.0]

Who would have thought that a song titled Disease would not smash 

[BlueBlue]

It's her "daisies"! Next one for do what you want (feat. R. Kelly) chanteuse is her 143 era!

[rickycabello123]

what went wrong what went wrong?' ofc because no music video, no performances, barely promote

interscope need to be humbled asap

[Atlantis]

The song was never gonna smash because its not very GP friendly but a debut outside of top 40 is still insane wtf It's Lady Gaga... and her fans love the song. The no promo excuse is... it's 2024, are there still people who think a morning show performance is peak promo?

Massive playlisting and massive radio deal is not effort to you? 

 

This is not the 00s/10s anymore, video clips and traditional promo is not what makes a hit anymore 

[halcyonday]

When Disease pulls a Daisies debut... truly an ultimate karma move for the monsters who called Katy's lead Disease

 

edit: @Apolonio ₃₄ don't make that face!

People try to compare it with legendary comeback singles, when it's her "Your Body" (#34 on Hot 100).

"Your Body" is a legendary comeback single 

 

[Bends]

I'm going to take a few days off, it's really hard to keep an eye on this flop. It feels like you're watching a crime story.

Except those things are barely what makes a song smash these days. Youtube is dead for American artists and barely anyone cares about traditional performances outside of specific events. Gaga promoted Harlequin with performances and it still flopped hard 

 

Spotify playlisting, radio deals and viral social media interest is what makes a hit these days and Gaga is failling at all of these despite her label pushing it 

[Kylie Jenner]

Following this single is like watching someone kick a corpse. Of a child. With no arms or legs. 
 

Just awful. Prayers to all involved on Gar's side. 

[Human Fly]

The way Katy's lead single Daisies peaked inside Top40 from Smile era without TTH placement and without radio deal… 

We really fell off that much??

do you want me to say it's not working then, because the song is just bad? because that's my next logical conclusion and I disagree with myself on this one

I mean if you like the song good for you, honestly. I personally find it awful and i'm not surprised it's flopping 

 

But we'll have to agree to disagree when it comes to promo. I do find it weird that they didn't release the clip for it the same day but i don't think it would've made much difference. The GP is clearly just not connecting with it.

Kats bringing up Katy's era from 4 years ago instead of comparing it to 143 just so they too can have a chance at a drag  

[CBC]

Okay little monsters we just need to sit tight and wait for the freeze to be over. Don't forget covid-19 also took around 3 months to become a full global phenomenon

The bad reception JFAD got clearly affected her although Monsters swore her solo music endeavors would remain intact from the backlash

I think it's time to have this conversation

I mean, liddos always talk about how Katy has been over for 7 years. So if Gaga can't outdebut Katy coming off of the Witness era, then what does that say about Gaga?

Debuting with double Dr Luke's Woman's World numbers. I thought they were on the same boat, what happened?

They're really not and let's be honest it's not a fair comparasion

Woman's World barely had 36M playlisting reach in its week release, not even added to the New Music Friday 

The other one has 106M monthly listeners, 126M playlisting reach, #10 on Today's Top Hits
