I'm annoyed that she's released that as a single. It's not going to be sucsesfull at all, that will then mean 3 single failures from 1 album.

Edge of Glory was a ridiciolus idea to release as a single, after everybody who wanted to buy, already had. I don't know why artists go for the most downloaded song as the next single? Surely, outwit the fans, and release the least popular as a single, then for those who haven't already got it, and want it, can then buy it...

Don't know if my point makes sense, but ho hum

It's the next best track on the album, makes sense to release the strongest tracks.

She really has made some poor choices with this album in terms of singles. The album's a different matter entirely, but the videos have been terrible and she's not done well in terms of timing.

After the huge success of The Fame/Monster, I really do think it would have been good for her to take a break, drop the "Mother Monster" crap, drop the incredibly patronising Born This Way theme and done something a bit different. She's hardly flopping, but I'm getting kind of bored of her.

You and I is an odd choice of song to release during the summer imo.

That said, I do really like the song and I think it shows off a different side of her. I don't think it will help boost interest in her though.

As was said above, she's hardly flopping, just not setting the world alight as she was during the Fame/Monster and I don't think releasing You and I will change that.

You and I is the standout track from the album, along with The Edge of Glory (in my opinion, of course).

I just read this too online (about shooting in Nebraska) and I nearly made a new thread for it. Thank God I didn't LOL!

As for her choice with You and I, I'm really disappointed but I'm not at all surprised. She said it would be a real surprise, then hints quite strongly that it will be You and I... I was kinda hoping she was trying put us off the scent of the real single so to speak, and then give us a massive surprise.

I could be wrong (and I hope I am, as I only wish the best for Gaga) , but I REALLY can't see this single being a success. Oh well, I hope she picks a better song for her 5th single.

I love the song, and I think it makes a good single. I would have left it till later, but whatever.

Y&I could do better than we think. It's going to get more attention for being a stylistic change than one of the more conventional tracks would, on novelty alone it has hype even if the song itself isn't the most interesting choice.

It's got big potential in the US. It charted higher than any of the other non-singles and should have good airplay cross-over into the adult contemporary/country/rock etc. stations as well as pop.

It should promote the album, and her well, showing a different side to her to some who are unconvinced on either/both. Even if people only like this song, it's a casual fan gained (and it's the non-fans that need convincing) and because they wont own the album...they might just purchase the single, allowing it to chart well.

Not to mention, Adele is popular right now. If a toned-down, non dance musical trend should follow suit, it's a good idea to show that side of her officially/commercially. Flex her talent muscles a bit, showing us why she's top dog.

To be honest, I think she's at a point where she doesn't, nor her label, overly care about chart success and she's just doing what she wants. If that weren't the case there'd be much safer choices made (Hair, Marry The Night). She wants to release a love song about her boyfriend, and fair play to her.

The video looks like it should be good too. Showing a different side to her, something that isn't dark/intense/stylised but fresh. Again, furthering the potential "Did you see Gaga's new video?" hype in a positive light, rather than "Oh god, you seen what she's up to now?".

Who else is gutted she hasn't chosen Americano for the next single? That would've made this summer an epic one

The Edge of Glory was a huge success. I know it didnt get to number one but it got top ten around the world, and has sold over one million copies in the US alone.
