-Robin Thicke's career being destroyed by a controversy centered on Miley Cyrus. -America turning Justin Bieber into a punching bag. As questionable as his actions have been he does not deserve the hate he gets. -"Wake Me Up"'s recurrent airplay screwing over "The Man" and "Hey Brother." -No... he just doesn't have anymore good songs. No one cared about HIM, just his viral hit (just like PSY) -Justin is an awful human being, I have no respect for him. When he grows the fuck up, then we can talk. -Blocking The Man and Hey Brother was a public service. Allowing Gaga's Artpop album to be in a shambles--that album could have EASILY scored 5 or 6 radio hits--looking at you, Venus. I think that it should have been Applause, DWUW, Venus, then G.U.Y. (With a music video for all of them) not 5 or 6 singles tho... #YouCrazy

"Clarity" not topping the charts and getting blocked by the far inferior "Blurred Lines" >:( I love Blurred Lines, but it's sad that it couldn't give up at least one week to Clarity which I also love :'( In fact a big reason I love 2014 for CHR is that eeverything seems to have gotten a turn at #1 except Ain't It Fun and Latch :'(

"Clarity" not topping the charts and getting blocked by the far inferior "Blurred Lines" >:( It wouldn't have topped the charts anyways, even without "Blurred Lines". The song peaked at #8, so that means there were still 6 other songs aside from BL that prevented it from going any higher. Besides, EDM songs that year took a backseat to other music styles, and in the summer, it was all about disco. I think #8 was still a good peak for "Clarity", is one of the few EDM songs that I feel was well made.

Allowing Gaga's Artpop album to be in a shambles--that album could have EASILY scored 5 or 6 radio hits--looking at you, Venus. I think her label might be to blame here for releasing her singles all at once and the timing not being right. Lady Gaga was expected to dominate the fall and battle Katy Perry's "Roar" for chart dominance, but she and her label probably didn't count on being overshadowed by Miley Cyrus and Lorde, either. "Applause" was a hit, but mostly because of the initial hype, and "Do What U Want" was just barely a hit (it might have been a bigger hit if a music video had been released and a right one, not the one that was leaked on TMZ, also it was helped by the "Beats By Dre" commercials), but other than that, all the other singles flopped. My theory aside from those I just put, may be that people have just gotten tired of her and her stage antics (is not really a new thing anymore like it was when she first came out), she has a lost some of her original fanbase and some do see her as "yesterday's" news. Also it could be simply that the singles didn't have enough of that public appeal to be big radio hits like the singles from her last three albums (the songs didn't really sound THAT much different from her previous album). Also, there's the case of "once you're on top of the world and dominating the charts, there's that inevitable "nowhere to go but down" situation". But for Lady Gaga, we shouldn't count her out just yet, she still has a huge fanbase, and could make a big comeback with her next album. The album didn't "flop", but it underwhelmed and let's just say it was simply a minor step back for Lady Gaga.

I MEANT ON POP STOP TROLLING PLZ I'm not trolling, I was simply trying to make an explanation and trying to answer your point, what's the matter with you? Don't call me a troll, that's rude and I hate that word. Is not like I was following you around or anything. And if you're expecting for me to stop commentating just because you don't like what I've posted on previous occassions, you're in for a rude awakening, I'm a member here, and I deserve to be treated and respected like one whether you like it or not, and I'm going to continue making threads and give my opinions, whether you like it or not. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. I learned that lesson, maybe you should as well. I don't want to start any arguments, so let's just leave it at that. Calling someone out for no good reason is disrespectful, don't ever do that again.

Why let facts get in the way of a good story? If a song peaked at #8, it could not even dethrone the #7 song much less be a #1!

I MEANT ON POP STOP TROLLING PLZ Because of your refusal to answer me, I brought your comment up to the people behind the site for your hypocritical remark and for your rudeness in the way you answered me, and you called me out for doing something I wasn't really doing. If you can't answer me in a respectful manner, this is exactly what I'm gonna be doing. Don't ever call me a troll ever again.

Because you seemed bothered enough about it to say how "out of line" I was in two separate threads and saying staff should address it. Explain to me what you meant, then-- and why it's suddenly ok for you to do the same thing you were so above before now?

Explain to me what you meant, then-- and why it's suddenly ok for you to do the same thing you were so above before now? Could you please provide the two incidents in question? Thanks! Fig. 1Fig. 2There were also posts made in the September RT thread where you decided to whine about it, but it would appear those were deleted after I was banned for two weeks. Anyway, none of this has anything to do with the thread, so I'm going to leave the issue alone-- but I suggest you drop the hypocritical attitude about when it is and isn't ok to make a jab at someone sooner than later. Thanks!
