‘Garden of Panty’ is the 2nd best song released ever in man kind history, so yes I agree with that comment!!!

(‘The Dead Dance’ is nevertheless still a 1111111111111/10 song!)

Garden of Panty...I just screamed. 💀

#neverforgetgardenpanty

Garden of Panty 😂🤣

If they had any sense then HBDYWM would get pushed next, with the Grammys coming up and extending her tour I’d like to think that’s cue for another single.

#22 this week (would've been stable at #19 without Taylor so not that bad..) Music Week didn't gave sales any song close to it but I would think it had pretty stable sales too.

UK sales:

(first two days, 2,000 - estimate)

Week 1: 21,542 (#13)

Week 2: 18,000 (#13)

Week 3: 16,000 (#16)

Week 4: 15,000 (#19)

Week 5: 15,000 (#22)

Total: 94,542

The global Spotify streams were UP 1% compared to previous Saturday. Stable!

#20 in the mids today

US Billboard Hot 100

68 61 05 The Dead Dance, Lady Gaga (peak: 40)

Would've climbed without Taylor - SLAY!

#24 (-2) in the UK this week

"The Dead Dance" is down 2 places to #24 in its 6th week. Imagine if it fell to #25, then it would've gone down 3 places for a 4th week in a row.

Hope it can register an increase in streaming on Halloween so it doesn't go ACR right away.

I always forget how ACR works but hopefully they've timed it so Halloween week helps it out

It needs to avoid a streaming decline starting from the 7th week onwards. Three declines in a row -> ACR

So things get crucial starting this week. It had quite a decline now so an increase later in Oct/Nov might be doable.

Halloween is in the next 2 weeks, but it doesn't look like ‘The Dead Dance’ has benefitted yet from the holiday timeline just yet….

(I’m not even sure there’s a large Halloween effect outside of maybe the actual week leading up to the main day itself..)

I don't there is any real boost until the week of Halloween! It isn't like Christmas which has a much longer build up.

Not in top 20 on First Look

Hoping we do get a slight boost for Halloween week but once we get past Halloween (and dare I say Christmas) I hope we get a new single push for early 2026! A new full push for an existing MAYHEM track could work!
