June 1, 20205 yr It's not that simple. She HAD to break away from the dance pop - there was huge backlash against her and her music during the late BTW/ARTPOP eras and even her manager left her. The versatility she showed with Cheek to Cheek, acting, Joanne and Super Bowl are essentially reasons why she was able to do such a comeback in the first place.
June 1, 20205 yr I hope this arbitrary, virtue-signalling ‘music blackout’ on Tuesday doesn’t affect the sales for Chromatica.
June 1, 20205 yr I hope this arbitrary, virtue-signalling ‘music blackout’ on Tuesday doesn’t affect the sales for Chromatica. I think it’s a nice idea what’s being planned and a huge mark of respect but I don’t think it’ll translate that much into the UK. It would’ve had more of an impact if they done it on a Friday (like a new music release day). But it may end up being more of an event in the US.
June 1, 20205 yr Coming from a non stan perspective, I think Gaga’s backlash was because of her believing her own hype and putting pressure upon herself to reinvent the wheel, particularly around the Artpop era. She stripped it back and ASIB once again highlighted her talent and that there was more to her than just the gimmicks. Right now I see a Gaga who is having fun and enjoying herself and so are her fans. And Stupid Love and Rain On Me are just good pop songs there to be enjoyed which is all she ever needed to do. It’s good to see her see a reversal in fortunes.

June 1, 20205 yr Chromatica might do 55-60k I assume, such a great result and it will easily be certified gold quite soon!
June 1, 20205 yr If Little Mix are 22 is there any chance they could squeeze into the top 20 by Friday?
June 1, 20205 yr Fantastic start for chromatica! Does anyone know artpop and joanne’s first week sales for comparison?
June 1, 20205 yr So will Stupid Love get a reset even if it's not in the Lady Gaga Top 3 this week? A very curious situation
June 1, 20205 yr So will Stupid Love get a reset even if it's not in the Lady Gaga Top 3 this week? A very curious situation It could possibly be top 2 based on how quickly Sour Candy is falling on all platforms
June 1, 20205 yr Is Rain still top 40 despite ACR? Yup, #35 Dadi Freyr still Top 40 or not? #38 (and potentially likely to finish higher than that at the current rate)
