What do you want? Gaga to be always on the radio with songs from 2011 that weren't that good for the radio? She hasn't had new music since 2011....
I think she can do 500k easly.

If she releases on Monday, there is a high chance, since promotion won't be an issue.
She's not going anywhere close to Taylor's record, though.

Maybe. But the second week drop will be huge.

Yep. She got 448k with a Friday release last time, if the new single has a full week it will easily cross 500k in about 3 days.

If her promotion is consistent (not over saturating like BTW) she should open big and go through a slower decline than last album.

Excuse me, but this list is outdated. I Knew You Were Trouble debuted with 416k last November. Where is it on the list?

500K+ Opening week if it's for the whole week, instead of being released on a Friday.
