Born This Way's 4th single sold 2.2M in the USA and peaked at 50M AI on Radio
MTN sold 600k as 5th single after shitload of Backlash and peaked at 40M AI
Birthday is getting more airplay than Applause which was a leadsingle and spent 3 months in top 10 both on Itunes and Billboard Hot 100 ..
Radio is literally raping people to buy the song, yet they are still refusing. If it was gold, I'd be like ... ok they are giving it a chance because of Dark Horse and Roar (in fact in the beginning it was logical, but they should've stopped at 30-40M Ai considering the song even struggled to enter top 100 on Itunes at certain point)
I am sorry for the comparisons but if G.U.Y. had 70M AI it'd be doing a lot better. It had more streaming in its first 24 hours than Miley, Katy, 1Ds latest videos, yet Radio just decided to turn their back on Gaga... They seems really biased especially when G.U.Y. was 300 places higher on Itunes than Birthday when Birthday was getting bigger updates on radio.
