charts discussion Lady Gaga - Disease | Day 8: #34 Global (+7), still 2.6M

[TrymeB]

No matter how much either side tries to spin it, this song is neither an instant BOMB nor an instant SMASHA. It did decent on day 1. That's the bottom line.

i won't say it flopped but definitely underwhelming 

Hmm, at least you admit it. Props for that. (not being shady or sarcastic here)
Not other liddos acting like this is fine and great even.

Is doing twice as much ''slightly better'' now

 

 

 

"Twice as much" is relative to the original value. 10 -> 20 is a lot different than 1 -> 2.

 

Saying "double" means nothing if WW already debuted with low streams  

 

 

4M+ with a current ginormous WW smash that has been getting 10-11M daily streams for months, 100M+ monthly listeners, etc. is not an impressive debut. Especially when you consider she has a lot of playlisting and covers.

Well, thankfully we have 26 other solo songs from TTPD that outdebuted Disease

 

Good for her

Do monsters really wants us to believe they expected less numbers from Gaga and this are great? They are the most cocky fan base here.

Songs like Espresso and GLB debuted with less than Disease  and I'm not saying Disease will become a big smash like them, but first day numbers aren't a good indicator of wether a song will become a hit or not, for example DWAS debuted with the same numbers as Disease and people were treating it as the biggest flop ever, only to become one of the biggest songs of the year, y'all need to let Disease breath a little, maybe it will flop or maybe it will become a hit, we can't be sure just by looking at first day numbers.

I was expecting 5 million or so but this isn't bad. I still think the video should've been released yesterday too.

[Weld_E]

Not the Liddos devolving into the MAGAs of ATRL, relentlessly posting fabricated stats about other artists just to elevate Gaga

I think more of a Texas Hold Em level of success but more global (as always) 

Texas Hold Em - 4.299M (2M without US)
Disease - 4.452M (3.4M without US)

Can't wait for it debut at #2!

Her movie was called FAD for a reason. The coherence is real.

I was expecting half of these numbers, as Disease debuted on par with DWAS, and ATRL told me that Bruno carried that one 

 

Was also expecting ~2M debut because Gaga & Katy are allegedly boatmates. In reality tho, Gaga debuted on par with her actual boatmate, Beyoncé. 
 

All with a solo song and no promo btw. 
 

So what's the truth, ATRL? 
 

Didn't Texas hold 'em release on a Sunday night as a surprise drop? 
 

 

I don't think she can be considered a boat mate. Beyonce is giving titantic first class passenger and disease serving bottom of the boat, didn't even make it up to the deck realness when the iceberg was struck because they drowned due to all the flights of stairs.

Yes, we've litterally been worried after JFAD and Harlequin. If you check the base, most of us are pretty happy with the debut.

UK solo #1 Texas Hold 'Em (something GaGa hasn't seen since Obama's 1st term in 2009) debuted with 4,537,000 on a Sunday which is the worst day for streaming. Why do you guys insist on lying?

Well until she can pull the current numbers like Bruno Mars are then maybe she is

Considering this is the artists chart today...

I don't think we have to wait "until she can pull the current numbers like Bruno Mars"

Which of these objective facts are you confused about, notorious OGH, @Draper.? 
 

The one where Gaga's solo single debuted with similar streams to a duet with Bruno, that OGHs claimed he carried?

 

The one where Gaga is actually peers with Beyoncé based on these numbers? 
 

The one where this site tries to force a Gaga & Katy rivalry even tho Gaga dusted her 7 YEARS ago? 
 

I'm happy to explain any of those points further to clear up your confusion.

But didn't y'all said she's Katy Perry Level now.. we could also throw that back at you 

 

Liddo acting cocky like she's the no.1 artist in the World while OGHs acting like she's Katy Perry level with the end result of DISEASE's numbers aka the middle ground
