Noob question but do the 11pm-12am sales count?

[fridayteenage]

Maybe in exchange for coming back, Gaga's gonna insist on Ryan letting her perform a different song each week.

Gaga losing a 15% in 6 hours, at this rate she will be at #1 less than 1 day

Closer is too big, if it wasn't for it PI would've been #1 for at least two days since #3 song is at 39%

Yeah if a new release is released an hour before the actual tracking week starts they still count that for the new week.

Gaga's song is free-falling and the critics are tearing it up. It's not looking good.

Oh rlly, is it why it's number one in 60 counties rn ?

Why isn't she promoting ahhhh

Yeah it's gonna lose #1 in like 4-5 hours

She's doing smaller stuff like radio promo. I don't think they plan on doing high impact promo for instant iTunes updates tbh.

Cause it says "Lady Gaga" and that still means something. iTunes #1s on the other hand don't mean that much.

We will have to wait and see if it becomes a hit. Doesn't really look like it right now.

Updates for Closer:
71%
74%

Really?
I think it might debut at like #13 for some reason.

How do songs usually progress for the rest of the debut week in terms of daily sales? I'm assuming it's front loaded as hell the first day and then evens out for the remaining 6?

Well, one example; comparing to Can't Stop the Feeling which was the most stable factor:
Rise 268%
183% (-85%) 32% decline
148% (-35%) 19% decline
139% (-9%) 6% decline
122% (-17%) 12% decline
106% (-16%) 13% decline
92% (-14%) 13% decline

But at the way it seems to be free-falling...

It's going to open with less than "Work" most likely. Which, considering that was only out for a day and a half

I just heard Perfect Illusion and it's kind of boring, what was Gaga thinking? :/ she needed to come back with a bang!
