Nah, Blurred Lines is not going to drop by too much. Enough to keep the #1

This is just POOR, espesh for such a global behometh like Stephy. Anyway, i think they are merely in the beginning of their grief.
1st stage is denial.

We probably only think Katy's selling so much because she's so far ahead of everyone else on iTunes. But we have to remember the competition is extremely weak.
Anyway, this is really sad for Gaga. Especially because people were talking about how she could even break Flo Rida & Ke$ha's record of 636K: http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=400560.

No she doesn't. Radio deal already happened the day Applause was released. [Billboard confirmed this]
They can't happen after. That's payola.

WANEGBT remains unbothered. Congrat for Katy although her number is lower than I expected.

Radios just played it for the sake of the release. Interscope actually has a radio deal set for the 20th. It was part of the original plan with the original release date of the 19th. And let's not act like most of our faves haven't used payola. If I'm not mistaken, payola was used for Born This Way.

I think we were all just overestimating Blurred Lines and Applause, and since we expected bigger numbers from them, we were expecting bigger from Roar as well.
