Applause already decreasing?

[MonsterNavy]

LMAO at these KatyCats dragging Gaga
Where are your arrogance coming from?

GAGA RUSH RELEASED HER SONG. Period.
Katy has all the hype and released her sh*t on the proper release date.
Had Gaga released her song next week in her proper release date too she's gonna slaughter like you've never seen before with the video and the VMA performance too

This will reach #1 eventually. Stop. Just stop

I am pretty sure the pre order is impacting the sales somehow. Does anyone know for sure how pre orders work on iTunes in relation to if the download of the song counts if it was downloaded because of the pre order?

every pre-order counts as a single sale for Applause, once the album is released it will count as an album sale (unless you cancel the pre-order).

pre-ordering the album does NOT affect Applause.

Pre-orders count as sales but do not help the song rise on the iTunes chart. It's not like they would make much of a difference anyway.

Nnnn so now Katy is the one with more hype??? How?????

Gaga announced Aplause much earlier, tweeted and talked about it several times, it should be her come back single after 2 years. It was overhyped as ****. The fact it is still not #1 is


Katy winning NA and Oceania, Gaga Europe (not all of it, Katy is higher in Germany for example)

it does, you'll receive an invoice with the single purchase.

[chilluminati]

Drake released a better pop song than both. The pure injustice.

[hector.adriel]

Can't wait for the Applause MV to come out and for her to perform at the VMAs... so many mouths will be shut down.

It is counted as sale but would not reflect in the song position on itunes chart

I will agree with this. Applause definitely had more hype.

Then how were JT's pre-orders so huge when the song was lagging in the 70s on iTunes?

tis true

But Katy is also performing and she is know to send her songs straight upwards (and she also sees great video effects)

I mean...LFN zoomed from the 60s up to #1 when the video wa releases and Wide Awake skyrocketed even after the travesty of a BBMA performance

Katy will put up a great fight with Gaga...but they should both do well so it's all good

[ToxicKat]

So what if Gaga has a bunch of #1's in other countries? It doesn't change the fact that Katy was #1 in those countries as well...the question is will it remain #1 in those countries for the next 2 days? Katy is WINNING.

I am rooting for Gaga but I can't believe the US isn't using Applause, it's a good track

More hype, bt wrong release timing.
People would still think it is released next week. rush release doesnt do good.
Last time judas was able to go #1 because the #2-4 songs are all weak.release not from major.artist
