Katy is on The X Factor next week, I hope to hear Gaga is on the week after, since that's release day.

Yasssss sis CLOCKT THEM. :mess:

She re-mixed and remastered it for the ALBUM not just the lyric video.
Thats how it will be on the album whether you like it or not. (Except for the chopping which is obvious)

I would rather have longevity over big numbers in a week
Even the Fame Monster didn't debut high with big numbers, though I'm 100% ARTPOP will debut higher.

I would say 400k-500k is very possible. Beyonce's 4 did over 300k with no hit singles and the album leaked weeks before. Surely Gaga can do 400k in the U.S.

443k from the Amazon deal so that means around 200k was sold through iTunes or other digital places. I'm sure a fair # of people who bought the Amazon deal would've bought a physical or iTunes version. Let's just say hypothetically she sells 200k on iTunes again (60+ drop from digital overall) I'm sure she'll also sell 200k (50+ drop) through physical too. 400k seems to be a good # to shoot for.

I think Gaga will do between 450-550k.

It will do 400-500. I'm really confident on it really. V1nus coming to slay you know

I want Venus to be a disco club banger

Please no f*cking disco.. let it die already.. that whole disco/retro phase is annoying now.

Applause is not the type of song that will sell an album, I'm hoping Venus will do the trick. Applause's job was to get her name back On radio and on charts. And it's still growing so I'm happy. You guys really need to stop worrying about first week sales like they mean anything. number one album is really all we should be asking for in terms of the first week

I like this estimate a lot.

I think Venus will come from the same vein as ARTPOP. It'll be chill, I think.

I never argued your point, I'm just saying that you made it seem that she would struggle to hit those numbers.

I think the only thing that's troubling me is how big her fanbase seems and yet Applause only opened to 200k. Like
