I can't with people trying to 'forget' Chromatica's success when it actually did more than good. 

ROM is a hit and anybody trying to say otherwise is probably very pressed. 

At the end of the day, ROM will be one of the seven +1B streamed songs that Gaga will achieve in the upcoming years: ROM, BR, Shallow, ARUTW, PF, JD (& Bloody Mary hihi).

Others don't even have one +1B streamed song if it's not a collab for other artists.

going 48M to 15M in a week wasn't good...

ROM fizzled very fast

SL was abandonned after first week and then died a quick death when radio dropped it

Chromatica crawled to a platinum certification in US, was also underwhelming in UK with less than 200k, the album is now pulling 3k weekly in US and is on its way to depart the Top Dance/Electronic album by next year at the rate it's declining

Chromatica's numbers feel better than reality because we lack monster album smashed from that period, like it's SOUR and crickets from 2020

The fact that the Bloody Mary main viral sound is still growing / being stable with very good numbers still is giving me hope. When the update drops today, I know of a certain someone who is gonna look like this, may the streaming farms help them:

Chromatica numbers are good for an album with zero promotion, a lead single that leaked a month before it's release, never really got promoted, was terrible and etc. A second single that also wasn't promoted and an era with no promo and etc. 

Chromatica could have been a smash album but unfortunately the circumstances weren't in our favours. But still it did more that decent cause it's a good album

I wish Bloody Mary-Wednesday challenge happened around Halloween. It prob would be 3x bigger but oh well.

I mean in US and UK, folklore smashed

Future Nostalgia was mainly helped by continuous singles released and reeditions

I think Chromatica was always meant to be frontloaded, even the era was, she literally planned it to be "March-August 2020" and then onto Gucci

but it could have done better imo with better visuals (not the album shoot which was amazing but more the music videos which were not great apart 911) and they need to stop cattering to Pop Radios which won't ever fully support her without a check after callouts (if those still exist since Beyoncé made them disappear after BMS)

Did we forget how big After Hours was in 2020 lol.

Yes, the album was frontloaded, but that also has to do with the fact, that its last WW single was released 1 week before the album release.

Rain On Me was a worldwide hit single and the albums has +850k pure sales and ~3.3B streams (Spotify + YouTube).

But it had a Shallow type of timeless classic aka Blinding Lights, which Chromatica lacked

zero?

Chromatica did well, was a ww hit with multiple hit singles. Yes, SL was a hit in some countries. 
 

It should have achieved better numbers. It we all know what happened with the world back then and how Gaga treated the era.

Chromatica was just as frontloaded as her every other release since 2013, including Joanne, excluding ASIB. 
 

The album did more than good.

It’s the same with little monsters pretending HOG was a panned flop when it’s still the highest earning R-rated drama of this decade. 

Yeah Rain On Me did pretty f*cking good imo, it might not have the stability of Shallow to say it like that but It's still an iconic collab that went #1, like back during the Joanne era we all DREAMED for another #1 song, overall I am extremely happy that she got to have multiple #1's later on in her career.

It’s like they only have short term memory in them.

Exactly.

Again the "Chromatica had no promotion" narrative

[Twitter Pronounshe/him/his]

At this rate I'm 100% sure they will add BM to Today's Top Hits after the holidays.
