It seems that an inescapable chart battle will erupt between RIHANNA'S RUSSIAN ROULETTE and LADY GAGA'S BAD ROMANCE! Both are HOT!! new releases...Bad Romance has been released to digital stores and is currently charting high against few major releases...while Riri is leading in term of Airplay gain. However, it will only be released to iTunes on 3rd of November.

Below are their current progress in Airplay Gain:

57 28 RIHANNA Russian Roulette 1479 416 1063 11.475
59 29 LADY GAGA Bad Romance 1454 317 1137 11.457

while GaGa is at Top 3 in US iTunes...

Who will make their way first to the top? Will both be no. #1??

well bad romance cant be number one next week, because it wasnt number one on digital songs, and is falling. So i think rihanna will probably win

I really hate when the media pin two artist against each other

I think their songs will be number 1, Eventually!!!

Bad Romance for sure!
new Rihanna's single is just boring...

Rihanna will **** on GaGa as usal.

Bad Romance>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Russian Roulette

GaGa is very close to Rihanna in the airplay, Bad Romance is going to pass Russian Roulette soon.

I don't think that's possible!
To think it over, probably only either of both will jump to No.#1...After Juz Dance and Poker Face, GaGa started losing the No.#1 factor. I don't mind Lovegame but Paparazzi got a MTV VMA treat but still can't soar to No.#1...lol

and that's after considering that Paparazzi>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>(JD+PF+LG) combined!!

Yah we'll see how Riri will perform on 3rd Nov..can't wait lol!!!

What makes you think so?

Bad Romance is Great but...

Russian Roulette is awesome >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Dunno whoever that be #1 is gonna be good, cuz I love both songs!

Bad Romance & Russian Roulette

The preferences of everyone on this board just goes to show that we can't assume either artist will outperform the other on the charts. It all depends on what people like more...

Bad romance >>>>

But they've never "competed" before.

I used to love Gaga but now... :-/
Rihanna will win this one and by a deserving not-modest difference.

Nope this is still gags year and she ain't letting up. Either

Bad Romance >>>>>

but "Russian Roulette" is a great song

Uhhh....BAD ROMANCE IS PURE while RUSSIAN ROULETTE is just

Why do we need a thread for this in the lounge?
