Lmao at "not that appealing." Y&I went top ten on iTunes when the album dropped. People obviously love it and those people are the non fans. Releasing You and I is a great way to get people who normally wouldn't be interested in the album interested. It's radio-friendly, samples We Will Rock You, and is a perfect choice.

As for the video, I think her being a mermaid is perfect. You and I is about her lover and the mermaid story is about finding a lover, so w.e.



Hooker's not a bad word.

Most of y'all only care about her charting well, which is why you don't want Y&I to be a single. Has it ever occurred to some of you that she doesn't care if a single "smashes"? She's releasing what she wants to release, and like she said, she's gonna piss all y'all off.

"You & I" was performed EVERYWHERE for like a year. That's why it went top 10 on iTunes. It was the song people were already familiar with. Duh! That doesn't mean it will be some smash hit.

She performed Speechless 100 times too but that didn't crack the top 60.

More people know about her and Born This Way now then they did back in 2009 with The Fame Monster. & Speechless wasn't performed A YEAR BEFORE THE ALBUM WAS RELEASED.

Yoü & I... Marry The Night... Heavy Metal Lover...

I recognized that already.

Well, I don't what You and I as the next single either, but it will probably be that one, so we just have to go with the best.
I'm mad as hell about that, but if she is really going to give me a mermaid, I can forgive her for that decision.

I'm not really focused tonight a bit tired... But yeah I guess we will have to deal with Y&I.

But I no longer can see other lessors on top of Hot 100 with low quality songs, when I know GaGa could snatch their wigs with other BTW songs than Y&I

And yes I look @ charts a lot because it somewhat determines the number of singles. I want 9 singles and 9 videos

I calmed myself.

I just started liking the Edge like a week ago.

"Speechless" and "You & I" are not the same. "Speechless" wasn't performed all over the place a year before The Fame Monster was released.

[Summerboy]

Y&I is the only non-single that is still selling, though.

483. Yoü and I - Lady GaGa

And DEAD! I swear it was in the 500s-ish some minutes ago.

I think that since she mentioned You and I wouldn't be a single, thats why she performed it all over the place so that she would get sales from it.

That doesnt mean anything, really. Simple stuff like people thinking it's the next single or the videos she uploaded of her performing Y&I could spark that.

[Bibliotheque]

Yes, I'm sure the viewers of the Today Show were on the edge of their seats for an entire year just waiting for BTW to be released so they could cherry pick Y&I

That's an issue. When your highest charting non-single is "You & I" @ 480 something, then there is obviously not much to release from this album. "You & I" will probably scrape top 20 on Billboard, but that's the farthest I see it going. I could be wrong though.

And I'm sure people listened to the album previews on iTunes the day BTW was released and Y&I just jumped out at them

Don't forget it was also performed on Idol like a month before

[Remixed]

People obviously remembered You and I being performed SOMEWHERE last/this year, and they were probably not Gaga fans, and when the album was released and they saw it, they bought it.

& Speechless was performed at the AMAs a day before the album release yet still flopped.

[Allstar]

And she performed it for the HBO special, too.

Well then they obviously thought it was pretty ****ing good.

[Relative]

None of these songs have instant smash-hit written on them. So no matter what single she chooses she's just going to have promote it well, cross her fingers and hope it does ok over the long-run.

Yes, and they bought it. Nobody else is interested now and it will flop

[MrPeanut]

Biblio, convert me to the Y&I faith. I'm so agnostic at the moment.

I just don't see what Y&I is gonna do for her if even TEOG didn't smash.
