Very that. Diminishing the success of Shallow and ARUTW is like saying I Will Always Love You and I'm Every Woman didn't smash because they were covers from a movie. Both songs unlocked a huge new audience for Gaga, and they are absolutely HER classics (the entire stadium singing EVERY WORD to to both at the Chromatica Ball would argue that they are bigger hits than Poker Face and Bad Romance at this point).Why are we even excluding a soundtrack as her success though? I don't see The Bodyguard being erased from the successsful part of Whitney's chart legacy, just because it was a soundtrack. It seems like for Gaga people are regulalrly trying to look for a reason why something isn't 'her' success, a hit is a hit is a hit, and Star Is Born soundtrack was huge for her.
Also re the collabs, I don't know the stats, but looking at the charts these days collabs seem almost as common as solo tracks. Therefore if everyone else is scoring hits this way, why is it not a success fpr Gaga when Gaga does so? Sure she benefitted from Ariana a bit with ROM, but I would say DWAS success is as much down to her as Bruno.

it was overshadowed in sales and cultural impact by Future Nostalgia without a doubt, especially as both were seen as danceable pandemic albums. Dua scored essentially 3 massive global hits that endured for 18 months plus local hits in between (Physical, Fever etc) whereas Chromatica felt dead once Rain on Me was done.I forget, how did Chromatica perform commercially? Especially compared to her peers?
This is an EVIL SENTENCE and it needs to be REMOVED FROM HISTORYthey are bigger hits than Poker Face and Bad Romance at this point
yeah 143
Dropping a bit but numbers wise still very stable:Spotify Daily
Global 9 (-2)
UK 9 (-5)
USA 11 (-2)
It's sad that in this day and age young gays are not able to experience full-fledged single campaigns anymore. With little to no outlets or platforms to do some decent promo, our faves are reduced to a YouTube show where you eat CHICKEN WINGS while chatting about something insightful, like songwriting.
I miss the days when we would have Fergie doing cartwheels at 8 am, Hilary Duff doing some mid, half-arsed dance-break, or Mariah threatening her "backup singers" to stop singing HER PART!
oh well, eating is the promo![]()
