Are we even getting the BTS thing tonight?

if she releases the video before Christmas, it'll bolster its sales for maybe a week, but because of the christmas freeze, it won't translate to an uptick in radio spins, thus its effect will largely be lost.

Or she could get the song into the Top 10 via streaming and iTunes BEFORE people get gift cards, which would be the logical thing to do.

I just hope they don't release it in the same week as The Monster because that video will totally outshine Gaga's.

Definitely...

Videos don't really affect radio spins directly.

Nope. But Rolling Stone corrected themselves.

The program/partnership Bit******* has with Vice launched today, but Gaga's premiere thing happens sometime after. (This week, just not today)

no, but when radio sees the song is in top 10 + gaining traction, they increase its radio play. in this case, that can't happen

Songs can still rise during the Xmas freeze in positions, its just AI is being taken up by holiday songs...

By the way, for people doing Rate The Music, start rating down Applause a bit. It's blocking DWUW from #1 on Top 40..

I'm saying she shouldn't wait until January. Before you reply, please have some comprehension skills.

Whatever. The main point is that we need this video.

No, later this week. Basically, it's another mess and it's getting tiring at this point. No wonder she has lost so much power.
