    Someone in another thread was slightly OTT saying how it is "tumbling down the charts", it's not exactly at #20 already is it. :rolleyes:

    Anyway, 'Venus' is unveiled soon so hopefully Gaga has made the right choice

    It wouldn't surprise me if at this point she performs 'Applause'. There's too much confusion, a) I doubt they'd be able to get R Kelly for the performance if she is to sing 'Do What U Want' and b) if she performs 'Venus', what's the point if 'DWUW' is the single?

    Ugh I hope not!! Come on Gaga get your act together! I didn't think this would be a good idea but she has to do something about it. it made no sense to me that KP performed Roar at X Factor, just like Robin THicke with Blurred LInes. Those singles are over. I think doing Applause would be a big mistake.

    I'm still holding out for Venus to be the song to blow everyone away.

    She should release 'Venus' in the UK I think and 'Do What U Want' everywhere else :) She needs to make the most of this X Factor performance!!

    New Venus lyrics on her Instagram...they look messy. "Aphrodite lady seashell bikini, garden panty, Venus"

    So is this still going to be a proper single along with DWUW? Will Venus still be released as planned?

    We don't know exactly, the problem is I sense Venus is more traditional Gaga (see Applause) that the record company is worried isn't working anymore. However, there is apparently a lot of promo for Venus already done along with the music video so! Maybe she will be the first artist to release her 2nd and 3rd singles at the same time :confused:

    According to X-Factor's Executive Producer, Gaga is still performing Venus of Sunday. What an absolute mess!

    is "venus" going to be released separately as a single or is going to made available via the album rendering it also ineligible to chart?

    This is what i dont understand 'Applause' was released exactly the same way as DWUW and that was chart eligible yet this isnt?!?!?!

    My guesses is that the label sent out a message to the OCC saying they didnt want it too chart...bad move if they did!

    no, there is a valid reason why dwuw wont chart in the uk yet, i posted it in another thread...

    more from the occ...

    Lady Gaga’s Do What U Want (featuring R Kelly) will become chart eligible once the related album pre-order promotion ends. Official Chart rules, as agreed in committee with the British music industry, allow one ‘instant grat’ promotion per album, i.e a single track download given away as an album pre-order incentive. Do What U Want is the second track to be delivered to fans who pre-order ARTPOP, the track will become eligible to chart once the current chosen promotional period ends and the full album is released on 11 November.

    i just wondered if "venus" is going to be released separate from the album? so i've just had a look on itunes and the track is still coming up as "album only".

    You're only allowed one instant grat’ release per album. It's why Katy's Walking On Air was ineligible but Dark Horse went Top 30.

    Edit: Beaten to it.

    Venus is supposed to be the "Bad Romance" of Artpop....I need to hear it already:D

    It's a shame that it would have been avoided had the ARTPOP preorder simply been pushed back until after applause was released in the UK. That way DWUW could have charted and Venus would be a seperate single and both done their thing simultaneously.

    Oh my! Have any of you seen the three 'Venus' artwork covers!? Shot by Klein (The Fame & Alejandro director) They are amazing!

    The covers bother me. But mostly because of the clumsy borders. They'd look so much better with a consistent white frame and handwritten text.

    I don't think any Gaga cover will ever bother me again, the reason? I'm still getting over the microsoft word 'born this way' font :D
