I think it'll just fall short as the Bruno boost is slowing down remarkably.

#71 (+5) in the UK mids

#19 in the Monday mids. A possible top 20 return.

YES bring it on! Wonder what changes she'll have made

The tour continues!

Flop smash did THAT!

#18 in the UK First Look chart

OMG IT EXISTS

This has aired in Japan now so expect leaks and clips to surface online.

Exactly! This spent only SIX weeks in top 5, BT for instance NINETEEN. This is up to #8 on global Spotify! And Bruno's new single also did better on its second Friday than on release date! I think his tour announcement has played a big role there.

I think the point that Sour Candy was making was more 2024 seen some gigantic hits and songs like Espresso, BIRDS OF A FEATHER and Beautiful Things for example (just within the UK) felt bigger? Shallow UK wise does feel bigger than Die With A Smile but both were / are massive UK hits though!

YEEESSSSSSSSSS YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

#flopwithasmile At least Sour Candy was a top 20 HIT!

Lives were changed!

HDD is reporting on rumors of a new Lady Gaga album following her one-off MAYHEM: Requiem show. “Mother Monster’s hot underplay at L.A.’s Wiltern sparks rumors of new Interscope album, Grammy performance—and the Little Monsters are all a-Twitter. Michael Polansky’s forecast: MAYHEM.”

Sour Candy (2026): Die With A Smile is a gigantic flop almost made Lady bankrupt. It failed to make a dent on the charts and almost killed their careers. #diewithaflop 😞

Her first week at #1 there!! ❤️

I discussed this "underperforming" in the UK compared to other markets in the chart forum, and I DO find it interesting that Shallow for instance was way bigger in the UK than this will ever be, considering how huge smash this has been globally. Regarding Bruno, I think him releasing music so sparsely kind of hinders his power as a commercial juggernaut, but basically everything he has put out has been successful to some extent (except that Sexyy Red collaboration lol)

17 years ago today, "Just Dance" reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Wow! It’s been huge in the UK. Robbed of a week at #1 but I think the impacts undeniable. This is Bruno and Gaga’s third longest runner on the UK singles top 100 so far. It needs two more weeks to tie with Just The Way You Are to be his joint second (and three to overtake). Uptown Funk is his longest runner on 76 weeks. Shallow is still way ahead for Gaga here with 116 weeks top. 100, then Poker face has 84 (but in terms of just the top 40 Die With A Smile is actually on more weeks than both of those!).

SMASH WITH A SMILE!!!

Gaga now needs one more week in the singles top 75 to get to 700 weeks! She also now has 401 weeks with the top 40 with Die With A Smile returning to the top 40 this week.

Fun fact: This is its first time in the top 40 since the week of 30/05/2025 - 05/06/2025.
