Could you imagine a few ATRL stans making a song Top 10?

That's the crazy part - a couple months ago this would be so insanely impossible that it would be pointless to even consider. But with the new streaming weight on the Hot 100 is would be so easy for a fanbase of this size if we could mobilize properly! 103 million streams total brought the Harlem Shake to a lead over the very strong #2 by a magnitude of 3.5 times. A mere fraction of that, even a tenth, could launch it at #10. At 28 million streams this week with almost no radio airplay and weakening sales, HS still holds at #1 with a decent lead. The #2 song only has 9.5 million streams, showing what the average would be for the top streaming song. This fanbase, if it wanted to, could easily outdo that. I'm not suggesting some psychotic #1 re-entry, just a modest #10 as our goal.

I'll do it, but I doubt we can get it too trend?

gaga has to have at least 100,000 stans who would spend a dollar. I don't see why no one does

Because nobody's here, I'll write up my idea in a simplified format.

Marry the Night Event

Purpose: Get MTN to re-chart, hopefully in the top ten

Procedure: Trend #WatchMarrytheNight globally on Twitter, watch the video, watch the audio video, and stream on Spotify and Rhapsody

Reason: Gaga's birthday, support for her work while she's sick, etc.

When: Starting tomorrow or Thursday (her actual birthday), through this Sunday (if possible since it's Easter)

That won't happen

Make a post on littleshitsters.com, gagadailly etc.

We could spread this - Gagadaily, OperationGaga, even littlemonsters.com, and hopefully (with help from some of the bigger monsters) Twitter's trends list.

This is crazy to suggest now, I know, but this is the perfect week to try. Even if we can't try this week we should do it soon, during her break, but with a well organized plan and a set date.

I know it would make her happy to see that in Billboard if we could do it. We're the biggest fanbase in the world guys, it can be done!

I'm here for the meltdowns that would happen if this happens
But the thing is I live in the UK and me viewing the video/streaming the song would count towards its position

Hey tho gurl, we got a 65% increase in week-on-week downloads with the Download Day in December 2011; that costs money, but this is FREE

I think Retro is right, maybe we can pull a miracle with the new BB rule It wont hurt to try.

[Retro]

But... I'm not sure if it will ever work on such short notice. Does anyone think we should plan a day in April and try to get everyone energized for that instead? Her birthday would be the perfect day, as a gift to her, but it's so close.

[Harajuku]

how about April 1st?

[NaughtyDog]

as a ditectioner whose faves previous song failed to chart on the top ten with a video premier and 100k sales, this is impossible

A little soon, but it could totally work. The 1st and 8th are our best bets - get people excited now, and they're not so far away we loose that excitement and momentum. Plus, we'll make it a whole week thing for the best effect.

I'm well aware of what a crazy goal this is guy, please don't think I've gone nuts.

Was this before the new BB rule?

[iStanGaga]

So Limp Bizkit is coming back and is using Gaga and Britney's names.

It is possible......and I know it would make her happy....

Anyone know how to set those youtube clickers?

[LadyGagaStan93]

Retro no. It wont work LOL. Not only the streams but the sales have to be consistent as well or it wont do a thing on itunes. You could have sold more total than number 1 on itunes or even the top 10 and still wont regain that because itunes is about the frequency of the purchases not by the quantity. Everyone would literally have to be buying the song at the same time and gifting it to people who don't already have the song. It would be a mess, also streaming isn't gonna do much because she'd also need the radio support to help her out as well. Even with the new system.

It made it to #13. See the brighter side of things! Plus, even if we fail this will be a good thing for our base to do. IT will help us come together and work toward a goal, and it will make Gaga happy if she notices.

That's why I' focusing only on streaming. I know there's no way in hell we'd gat any airplay or even on the top 200 of iTunes. I'm trying an approach that ignores them.

Just please give it a chance?
