Nobody is forced into buying or playing a song or album. Applause WAS her most successful single on radio, whether you want to sit around talking about inflation or not.

Wrong analogy. Let me explain inflation. This is like having a million dollars today and saying you were just as rich as the Rockefellers back in the day.
Applause today is not comparable to Poker Face in 2009. Applause, however, is comparable to a current hit such as HOWGH by Drake.
Once again, sorry that facts and objectivity are difficult for you.
I think I only heard it once or twice on a HAC station.
It's embarrassing to Gaga if her singles that had "less" airplay were WAY bigger hits than Applause (2x platinum) aka her "biggest" radio hit.
