I've just realised- the singles aren't doing particular well in the UK compared to TFM are they?

^^No. Sadly, it seems that people just want her to create songs that are like Bad Romance,yet complain that they sound alike (ie. 'Judas'). However, the songs are still good. I just think it could all be about timing and whether radio will play them-which could prove tricky for a few of them.

Yeah I think it was mainly
BTW ----- released on a stupid day
Judas ----- religious thing and released abruptly
TEOG ----- video wasnt released until ages after and it was seen to be dull and crap

She's done 'alright' here (for reasons posted above), but the British public has been flopping hard this year.

I don't understand how they can worship Adele one minute (slash 6 months), but then lap up total crap like LMFAO and Chris Brown (to name a few)?

They've done well, its just that she hasn't got a #1 here yet this era (though she came close with BTW). She got two #1s and #7 with TFM.

BTW = #3
Judas = #8
EOG = #6

I don't see how those positions are flops :S

Oh I never said they were flops. I just think it would be nice and would shut the haters up if we got a UK no.1 from this era.

Yeah. Also I think since that stupid criticism story about performing in a wheelchair seem to have gotten most people on Gaga's side shows that she is by no means unpopular like the haters try to make out, then again how can that be said when she has a dedicated fanbase of millions around the world?

I hope the wheelchair story will make critics see that they need to stop trying to have a pop at Gaga for anything - its happening now because she's at her most famous.

Unfortunately so, the main problem was the lead single wasn't released correctly for the UK. Although that whole "as soon as it's on radio it's available" technique might work in the US but if BTW had been released on Sun/Mon it would have almost certainly made No.1!

BTW = could've made #1 but wasn't released on the right day and on the same week as the Brits where Gaga didn't perform but Adele and Jessie J did
Judas = was rush released and surrounded by controversy
EOG = was never meant to be a proper single in the first place

Yup. It still would've been close but I'm fairly confident it would've beaten Adele.
The album's still doing very well which is the main thing. *cough Outsold Femme Fatale in one week *cough

If EOG wasn't a promo single it would've gone to number 1. It was released as a promo so everyone went out and snapped it up so that when it came out officially many people had already downloaded it and that never helped. I think many of her singles this era haven't been well thought out. I seriously doubt You and I will be a hit record either

It's not. I don't think it is anyway. Why would she put it out so early?

LOL. Personally, I try not to get caught up in the stan wars. I quite liked Femme Fatale (don't judge me!). BTW is better though!

Oh I know, me neither. That was just a one-off compulsion. The only stan wars that I occasionly get involved in are Gaga V JB on Twitter and that's only cause they're ridiculous.

Ugh those Beliebers have to be the most annoying fan(stan) base. I do think some Monsters go OTT,but someone said JB has more followers on Twitter than GaGa,just because he hit 11 million the other day! I know they're young,but that was just hilarious.

They always attack me on Twitter! It's hilarious!
