I'm too lazy to look up for WW receipts

LOL yas clock with the receipts.

And lol at that ugly rihtard stan calling Gaga a fad bc Applause just crossed 100M. That's good for a song as big as Applause was in 2013. If FFS was out in 2013 it'd be in the 80's or something.
The fact that FFS didn't outsell Applause and spent a whole month and a week LESS in the Top 10 on Billboard truly shows who the Fad is...and with 3 artists she couldn't even make it to 10 weeks Top 10

DWUW was a huge hit. It's sold almost the same as Anaconda (one of the biggest songs of our time).

Ugh, we could only dream about Gaga performing at the Grammys during the ARTPOP era since it's so much bigger than the VMAs and the AMAs. Rih performed there and what? Still 800k less than Applause and only 400k more than DWUW. But what about Rih's star power? Why people don't want to pay for her music? Anyone can listen to music for free.

Just stfu and leave Gagz out of it, your fave is a slave who can't release the album after three singles. At least you'll be getting more socks

FFS sold more WW than Applause, but you knew that since you were just in RihLORD's receipts thread

He also stans for Ed Sheeran, P!nk and Sam Smith. And his favorite song of the last 10 years is Someone Like You.

TIZIANO >>>>>>>>>>

I can't believe that he stans for the biggest male artist alive, king Ed Sheeran. Talent recogzines talent.

It spent like 10 weeks in the Top 20 on billboard. Most top 20 hits on billboard spend like 2-5 weeks and then flop off. it just needed a MV push and the sales and radio play prove that

[2014]

Rihanna & Katy are both done.

[YR.]

FourFiveSeconds was bigger than Applause and DWUW was bigger than BBHMM. I believe that GUY and AO sold the same

R8 won't sell more than ARTPOP tho, so Gaga won this one.

BBHMM has 194M views on Youtube overall.

what?

[Ady.]

More people were buying music in 2013 than this year. And Rihanna's had two hits that year, Stay and The Monster.

You make a good point, they would have sent her with sure hitmakers. I don't think they scrapped it entirely (and yes, a label has that power) but maybe they advised her to work a little bit more in it. I thought maybe she was pushing for a Q4 release but a single should have been released by now.

I think that they would have given her a set date to have it done by. Or have her put out a single this month, album in November and record until they get near the release date. The lack of direction is what makes me believe she's behind all of this.

If it wasn't for that Ellen cover it wouldn't even be in the top 150 and you damn well know it !

lol I actually didn't even know Ellen covered it. I thought it just had great longevity.



I still say it was a hit tho. It's always playing in the club and everyone I know uses it.

I could care less about Rihlord's receipts thread.

Twitter > Search 'chart news rihanna' > choose "more options" > then "people you follow"

Oh, it did? So she actually came close to Applause's WW sales? Good for her

1. They sold about the same WW
2. FFS WW numbers include streams since the U.K started incorporating streams in their sales in 2014 (AFTER applause) and Italy starting doing it in 2015. About 300,000 of FFS sales are just stream equivalent units. Only the U.K and Italy come to mind for countries that incorporate streaming in their sales but anyone can feel free to tell me about another country that does so and therefore inflated FFS sales.

yea it was a hit. But a flop for Rihanna's standard. Especially for a 2nd single.

[Instant]

Taylor Swift has no problem with selling a lot of singles (I'm not saying albums) in 2015 so why can't Rihanna? Not to mention that every big hit now sells like 2-3m so looks like queen of pop Rih ain't doing it

[Ady.]

WW iTunes:

#94 Diamonds
#197 We Found Love

These classics.

Not one Gaga song.

[2014]

That will change in 3 weeks once AHS : Gaga premieres.

[Skywalker]

[Instant]

Wow, she has those two classics charting and still can't sell a sh!t with new music. People just don't care, wow.
