I dont think it will be as big as BTWs, but I believe Judas wont have that much competition in terms of new releases/upcoming singles to deal with that are going to sell with. E.T. will be dying down in terms of sales by Judas's re;lease

iLays needs to give us his full Judas review. I say we all bombard him with requests

True, but will be growing in terms of airplay...

I think Judas can be just as huge. It'll be interesting to see though...

Hm, I think 2:40-4:20 in born this way might be my favorite moment in pop in the last ten years or ever. Of course, I'm hoping that will change once the album comes out

Big enough to dwarf the rest.

By the way guys, I had a crazy dream last night... Judas was released April 19th and debuted at #1 and was still at #1 when the album was released... Then Marry the Night was cherry-picked so much that it went to #1 on those sales alone the week of the album's release, as well as the album selling 1M first week... It was amazing

YES

You should know there'll be promo singles on May 3rd,10th & 17th too then :scary:

Seems plausible to me. If that happens.

Really? Beyonce first single comes out in May.

And help us girl, we need to take the GLEE boy out.

IMO "A different lover is not a sin believe capital H-I-M" is the best part of the song. The way she sings it

Sorry, but I love him.

Vocally this album seems like a step up from TF + TFM. She sounds great on BTW, GH & Scheibe.

I want to compare 'Judas' to the release of 'Bad Romance,' but Gaga's career has changed so much ever since. 'Bad Romance' debuted at #9 and then fell, rising up in the midst of its promo + video. Part of me wants to say that Judas will suffer the same fate, but then I remember that Judas is what everyone wants to hear from her. Are people craving new Gaga? They always are I doubt she wil debut at #1, but I expect a high debut regardless. Judas will probably eclispe Born This Way in terms of success by the end.

Very smart move of her label to choose BTW as the lead. Just Dance, Poker Face, and Bad Romance are her highest selling songs - all 'classic Gaga.' Why would Judas fall short? I can picture it squeezing in between Poker Face and Bad Romance, though topping Poker Face would be

Rain Do his fans really have nothing else going on where he gets #1 every year

I now think BTW has a shot at eventually reaching 4M, which would be nothing short of spectacular.

The song still has decent promo ahead: Glee, HBO, the album release (see what it did for Brit's singles), + she'll probably perform a bit of it along with Judas.

Of course I mean a loong time from now, like after Xmas sales.

From what we've heard, her vocals are way more mature now and they seem not touched at all. I remember when I first heard Bad Romance, I couldn't believe it was her. Compare Bad Romance to Just Dance, Paparazzi or Poker Face. Her voice was so high in all TF tracks. Then, when she would sing live PF for example, her voice was 10x more powerful.

On what basis do you think that? If it gets a Tuesday release, it could have the same sales as BTW (with all the hype it had) or even more IMO.
