^ Ughh damn the Billboard charts for not having the singles chart based on sales only. LG has a HUGE lead over Birthday Sex saleswise. So unfair :snif:

lol I agree. She would have been 2 last week.

 

Basically GaGa needs to get her ass over to America and do an all out media blitz if she want's to get a 3rd consec #1. Really in like 2-3weeks is her chance seen as in just over a month (aprox.), from then on there's going to be Mariah Carey, Shakira, Nelly Furtado,Whitney Houston, Rihanna (?) and Christina Aguilera singles, and that's just the females.

The AI update is smaller than other days but everyone had a sucky update today (biggest was +1.7 - BEP IGF) so it's still doing great.

It will get 5 or 6 tomorrow, both Shinedown and Miley can be overtaken.

This has to be the 4th single. After all the time its spent on the chart as an album track, making any other song the 4th single would simply be a mistake!

The remix with Marilyn Manson is f***ing SICK.

 

:wub:

It's unlikely the UK will get this as a single. 'Paparazzi' will be charting high until mid-late August so I think it'd be best if she just waited until her re-release. The general public will start to get sick of her if she's on the radio all year (a la Rihanna). If there's a two month gap between the peak of 'Paparazzi' and the lead single from the re-release, I think it'll go straight in at number one. 'LoveGame' probably wouldn't make top ten either since 'Paparazzi' should ensure that 'The Fame' shifts another two-hundred thousand copies.

Exactly my theory as well.

I think the same strategy would be implemented in the US as well for their fourth single (likely candidate: Paparazzi), which would follow the same fate as LG for 4th UK Single.

If there was no album re-release, the releasing of LG and Paparazzi as 4th UK and US singles would make sense because the era will need them as fillers and they'd be the best single choices.

But now that "The Fame Monster" is on its way, rushing into a 4th single won't do GaGa's reputation or success nearly as good as the 4th Fame single coming off as a new song from the re-release much like the success Rihanna had when releasing "Take A Bow" and "Disturbia" for "Good Girl Gone Bad Reloaded".

Re-releasing the album after 3 singles is a huge no no, 'LoveGame' will easily do well here (and 'Paparazzi' in the US) and then they can release the deluxe edition nearer christmas when sales are higher.

68-87-85-70-57-62-48-46-29-20-9-6-5-7-10-7-9-8-4-4-2-4-3-5-6-7 - 26 Weeks

No they should release The Fame Monster in November after the first release off it. Otherwise if they release LoveGame we'd have to wait till February next year.

 

 

If LoveGame is released as 4th single the schedule would look like this

 

Jan - Apr - July - Oct -4 months for to build expectation - February - ect.

 

If the 4th single is from Monster the release schedule would look like this.

I think it would be better if the re-release along with its lead single comes more sooner than later but on the other hand I think LoveGame deserves a UK release and that it certainly does have potential to become quite a decent seller.
