Mind the troll guys x Yep. It happens in all fanbases but I do think it can be a particular problem in Gaga's case, it's a shame because it goes against everything Gaga as an artist is about.

01. Good For You (feat. A$AP Rocky) Average: 9.24 How proud I am to be yours: blacksquare, JosephStyles (11) Andrew., Cameron, Jade, Jonjo, Liam, Nina West, Tombo (10) Tryna mess your image up: Riser (6) Bjork, George.keh, Nick F1 (8) At the time of 'Good For You' being released, Selena's future as a pop girl was uncertain. Not bleak, she'd just had top 10 in the US but WW she hadn't really established herself properly despite Come & Get It and Naturally being cute bops the GP liked. Good For You marked the beginning of the Revival era and a change in label, sound, image and artistry all for the better. It was released OA/OS here literally just before it became the norm so it had a slow start, but in the end was a hit at #23 and is coming for plat. It might not have matched the peaks of some other songs but in terms of impact Selena had never been bigger. It was her first top 5 single in America, and the start of an era where she moved up the pop ranks! It's between this and 'Fetish' for my fave Selena song, so I'm very happy at this result. GFY blends pop and R&B to make this amazing sexy hybrid, you FEEL Selena's voice. I looked through the BJ thread for this out of curiosity and the feedback around A$AP's feature was the one negative it got but I think it's really important for the song actually. He suits the vibe it has and delivers a great verse, I've heard the solo version and it doesn't have the same magic. I can't get this out of my head again since the rate started aha. Well done :clap: :wub:

02. Lose You To Love Me Average: 9.17 Gave my all and they all know it: Bjork, Nina West, ...ready for it, UltraBeKind (11) Andrew., George.keh, Jonjo, JosephStyles, Josh!, Liam, Riser (10) Sang off key in my chorus: blacksquare (5) Nick F1, Tombo (7) It had been over two years since Selena had released a solo single when 'Lose You To Love Me' came out but she came back with a bang. A heart-mended together anthem, it connected with people on a different level to any other Selena song without a doubt. It not only became her first #1 on the Hot 100 but it debuted there as well. Over here it was a top three hit, above anything she'd done before and worldwide it was the same. :wub: Thinking about it actually, everytime Selena starts a new era she surprises us with her sound; The Hearts Wants What It Wants, Good For You, Bad Liar and this. She never keeps it safe with her leads and that's part of why she's an A-Grade pop girl! This song is the feels. Even for those of us who have never been in a relationship, there's something to connect with and Selena embodies that finding of inner strength perfectly and not in a cliched way at all. The piano backing is stunning throughout and when the choir comes in...sheesh. What a beautiful single. A top 2.

Ella Henderson - Take Care Of You
I hope she can get an Ava Max-sized hit, but Radio Two dropping it can't help on iTunes. I'm doubting this will make top 40 :(

3. Hands To Myself Average: 8.88 I want you all to myself: George.keh, Jay* (11) Andrew., Cameron, Jonjo, Liam, Tombo, UltraBeKind, Wall (10) People say what they wanna say: Riser (5) Nick F1 (6.5) We need to talk about that cover. That picture is a conversion therapist's dream, she looks HOT 😍 'Hands To Myself' was the third and first post-album single from Revival and arguably took Selena from B- list to the upper echelons of pop (outside the US where she was already there obvs) The video came two months after the album's release and the song still became the biggest song from the era worldwide, her 4th consecutive top 10 single in America and it reached #14 here. How often nowadays does a proper post-album single become the biggest? I know it was different even in 2016 but still, slay. The video is honestly in the category of 'best of the 10's' for me, it's not just sexy but compelling viewing throughout. This was an 11 contender for me :wub: The second I heard it when the album came out I fell in love, incredible. So deserving of top 3. And 'I mean I could, but why would I want to' saved pop music, no exaggeration *.*

4. The Heart Wants What It Wants Average: 8.71 I'm not alive until you call: Bré, Jade, Josh! (11) Bjork, Dexton, George.keh, Tombo, UltraBeKind (10) Save your advice cause I won't hear: Tawdry Hepburn (5) Riser (6.5) Again increasing the average by the tiniest amount possible (Spoiler for stat nerds of obscure BuzzJack rates: 3rd place is only a bit higher :magic:) and our 4th placer is Selena's final single with Hollywood Records, 'The Heart Wants What It Waaaaaaaants'. THWWIW was the first hit at the slinky Selena we know and worship today, giving us a new R&B sound. This was massive in America, shocker, equalling the peak of Come & Get It (#6) to be her joint highest placer at the time. Tragedily it only got #30 here even after a held back release (I seem to remember, very vaguely the release being kinda botched here? idk I could be wrong). This was deffo a foreshadowing of the Revival era, and the more vulnerable side of Selena we'd see so beautifully and frequently in years to come. I gave this an 8, I did really enjoy it, but I'm already regretting that score. I'm literally having an epiphany with this song as we speak :cheeseblock: I paid it dust for years but I have no clue why, Selena carries the R&B sound with ease and the wa-a-a-a-a-a-nts is infectious. 10's across the board. Top 3 wooo: Good For You (feat. A$AP Rocky) Hands To Myself Lose You To Love Me #3 coming at 11pm.

5. Naturally Average: 8.69 Know it's meant to be: Cameron, Jonjo, Josh!, Liam, Nick F1, ...ready for it, Tombo, Wall (10) Dexton, George.keh, Nina West, Tawdry Hepburn (9) How you chose to express yourself (is questionable): blacksquare (4) Bjork (7) Kicking the top 5 off, getting here by just 0.01 points (what could've been!) is 'Naturally'! Naturally was technically the 2nd single from her first album with The Scene 'Kiss & Tell', although it effectively launched them in most countries. It was a good start to Selena's UK career, going straight in at #7 but for a Top 10 hit it was mega frontloaded and still hasn't even gone silver eek. Still, a top 10 is a top 10 *.* This performed strongly across Europe, also reaching top 10 in Ireland, Slovakia, Hungary and Belgium. Despite a moderate #29 peak in the US it's almost 5x platinum there as well, so it's held up better there than here. A bop? Yes. Top 5? Nit. I wasn't that familiar with this song prior to the rate but it's instantly enjoyable and danceable, I get why it was a cute hit for her here but she's far surpassed it since imo, even with The Scene. This is the last song not to get an 11, so the fact it almost averaged 9 is v impressive :clap:

AS6 | SPOILER THREAD
Ouch at Shannel being compared to India :kink: I'm a big fan from seeing Season One last year and I highkey think she'd have done better than Ongina in AS5. Sonqiue is more random but WOW have pushed her a bit in the last two years with her being on the Holiday Spectacular and more YouTube stuff so I'm not surprised. Shannel = S1/AS1 - yay Sonique = S2 - semi-yay Yara Sofia = S3/AS1 - YAY Laganja Estranja = S6 - She's obviously improved since Season 6 but I wasn't overly keen then so we'll say meh for now Kim Chi = S8 - yAY Kameron Michaels = S10 - meh Asia O Hara = S10 - meh (I could never take to her in Season 10 sorry) Plastique Tiara = S11 - yay Scarlet Envy = S11 - YAY A’Keria Davenport = S11 - semi-yay It does defeat the purpose of All-Stars though I agree, they really should've kept it every four years olympic style. We'd be on AS3 now lol

Predict: First week sales & peak (UK)
Surely even now, she's not gonna be worse than The Vamps 1-35 and even Xtina's 1-29? She's still sold 1k+ every day this week, I'd be surprised if it wasn't in the top 20 next week.
