Posted by admin,

I have updated the Guidelines here. Please take a look as I open this thread back up. I am going to give a pass to the fighting that happened earlier, but will consider everyone to have been warned and ready to receive points moving forward. We do not want people to attack one another, incite more fighting or to continuously drag artists. You don't have to agree with everyone. Who flops, who succeeds and everything the middle is subjective. None of us have all the numbers either. Some

Some examples. Bad: "And she didn't even need radio payola like some talentless girlies" Better:  "And she didn't even need radio payola like some talentless girlies" --  Bad: Using the term Cupcake - it makes people feel attacked --  Bad: "Not a certain fanbase attacking Ariana on Twitter. Guess they’re already scared of the GLOBAL stomping she’s about to do next week." This is classic flamebait. Leave the fighting in Twitter on Twitter, bringing it here bring

But really how perfect it would’ve been if she had released Alice as lead, it perfectly encapsulates the Chromatica vibe and is the perfect intro for the era

It would be easily at 300M+ on Spotify and 200M+ on YouTube with a good video :bradley:

exactly i think it could also do well on the radio + with an amazing video it could be huge

but instead of this we got Stupid Stupid Flop with a cheap video and tacky choreo

:nicki_scream: she said hmm there is a lot of hype on me cause of the ASIB era, the most since BTW era, lets make Stupid Love  the lead and destroy every last piece of hype there is around me and also let it then rot and never promote it

Yeah thankfully we got ROM, imagine the lashings if SL was the biggest song from Chromatica :katy_pie:

Back in the dark SL days we just hoped Chromatica could open with like 130k and laughed at anyone who expected 200k+:katy_pie:

I’m not the biggest fan of the song but it’s more GP friendly than Stupid Love. 

Any lead other than Stupid Love would've been disastrous. Perfect Illusion was probably the best choice for Joanne, too, since no other song could've gotten enough Airplay to debut #15 / let the GP know Gaga had new music. That these 2 were the best options on LG5/6 is an issue, though; the final track-lists should've contained more commercially viable solo tracks (+ARTPOP).

A lead single needs to be GP-friendly; it has to sell an album, tour, and keep momentum. LG6 lead was always going to be difficult since PI failed on all platforms and she'd just smashed with a much different/HAC sound on ASIB. Stupid Love was the best bet for her Pop comeback; it:

  • Fit current trends of Pop (retro/disco) Radio.
  • Was tailored to streaming (~3 mins).
  • Was emptier lyrically / less auto-tuned than prior dance/electronic singles.

Alice is a great intro to Chromatica and should've been released as a promo single (see below); but, its dance/house production (vs. dance-influenced Pop of SL) would've clashed with Radio (i.e., PI in 2016). Her vocals are distorted throughout, which would turn off most ASIB fans.

TL;DR

Stupid Love was played on Radio upon release and:

  • Climbed to #11 on Pop Songs (impossible for a song like Alice).
  • Debuted #5 on BB100.
  • MV views far outpaced any Gaga single in 7 years / her contemporaries.
  • Hovered in the 25-35 range for much of its 10-week Chart run.
  • Allowed Rain On Me to debut #1 on BB100, Chromatica to debut #1 (~275k sales) on BB200, TCB to sell extremely well, etc.

As discussed ad nauseum, the problem is that weeks 5-8, nothing was done to bring awareness as it lost steam from its initial audience. This would've sunk ANY lead; the era would've gone MUCH better with a few small moves:

  1. 4/10 - Alice (promo single) on streaming/digital platforms.
  2. 4/10 - Alice (MV); debuted during live fan event on original album release date.
  3. 4/15 - Stupid Love (acoustic); performance at Together At Home.
  4. 4/17 - Stupid Love (acoustic); on streaming/digital platforms.
