You shouldn't go there, but since you did, lead single Perfect Illusion sold 100K in its first week and wasn't discounted.

Same Ol' Mistakes Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I mean, if the song wasn't promoted at Super Bowl, it wouldn't never go to the top 10. But slay and congrats, I guess. I'm happy for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accelgors Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 but i won't knock gaga for what she did. it was a seriously smart promo move, and i do like her in the end so i'm glad to see her do well. i guess part of it is that this makes me concerned that the minute the discount goes away, the song will drop like a rock. i'd be disappointed if that happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alejandreaux Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) 20 minutes ago, SilencePlease said: Well performing a song in front of 117.5M people and have it sold at $0.69 is unprecedented and over the top imo. But you gotta play with the rules, I guess. Hasn't the song been discounted since like forever too? yet if your fave ever did it, you'd probably be defending it to the high heavens. idk why everyone is acting like MR is the first song in history to be discounted on iTunes, since nearly half of the top 50 is also discounted. she's also not the first to promote a single at the Super Bowl in front of 110M people. Gaga is playing her cards right and her team clearly knows what they're doing. It's not their fault that its actually working.

The way you need to discredit other artists to make your fave look better is just sad. 448k of BTW to 240k of APPLAUSE to 100k PI is not bad of a decline.. i really don't wanna drag these issue cause i love katy, i just wanna clock kats trying to clock MRs sales.. now, let's move on and celebrate that they'll both be having their 14th top10..

And I admit Katy is struggling (to an extent) but that doesn't deny the fact that Gaga is over-exploiting the weak points of the Hot100 rules, imo. That's all I'm saying.

Great to hear IFIC doesn't have as big jump as other performed songs, so maybe it can stay below LOTB too?
