Alejandro is such a no brainer. Loved it from day one. (long live Ace of Base!)

Great choice! Monster needs to be the 4th and last single though. No Speechless please. It's been performed everywhere and its sales are horrible.

If Speechless really is the 4th single, then boo at this choice. Such a shame for Monster to never see radio :(.
I am also very much on board with her taking a break after this era is over. This album was already pushing the limits of overexposing her, but a 3rd will do it for sure.

Our inside source did not object to this thread like he did to the Speechless one, so that's all the confirmation I need.

Good choice. It had to be this or "Monster." I still want "Dance in the Dark" to be released at some point too.

Ugh. I like this song, but Monster should have definitely seen a release before this.

Good choice!... The only thing that I don't like about it, is the fact that now, Monster will probably won't be released... if it were up to me:
3. Alejandro (summer) 4. Monster (fall) 5. Speechless (winter)
Next album in summer '11... but if they're really going with the 4th quarter '10 release, I think they'll skip Monster... damn :(

It should've been Monster, but whatevs. I love anything GaGa and this song is catchy as hell.

This deserves to be massive everywhere - it's Ace Of Base meets Geri Halliwell's "Mi Chico Latino". That's how I feel too... but not in a good way. It sounds too dated but not in the respectable way. It doesn't feel authentic. I think it might even be my least favourite song on Monster.

I'm disappointed with this choice. It's a good song but idk if it's strong enough as a single. I was hoping they wouldn't kill TFM and just release 'Monster' as the final single

I'm nervous about this choice, it's a little 'strange' for her and not a surefire #1... this will be a test for her ability to get stuff that isn't the radio 'norm' to the top. I think radio will end up embracing this and getting it to the top anyways, even if it's a weaker hit for her, like LoveGame.

I'm glad she didn't go with Monster. That song is too similar to Bad Romance and Telephone, she needs to freshen it up a bit. This was a good decision.
This EP is so difficult with singles because it's filled with so much potential, almost every song is just great in it's own way (the only one I don't like is Teeth), so a few songs are going to have to get the short end of the stick unfortunately.

Great choice... I had a strong feeling it would be this or "Dance In The Dark", since the other two obvious choices were confirmed to not be the next single. This song doesn't burn quite as fast 'Telephone' or 'LoveGame', but that's just my opinion... and I can see this doing quite well on radio. I kind of get the impression that this will go down as one of her more forgettable singles, of the singles previously released. But that shouldn't stop it from doing well...
Hopefully she can do "Monster" or "Dance In The Dark" as a single before "Speechless" comes in as the last one... that would suck if those two didn't get released (in a "You're Not Sorry"/"Forever & Always" kind of way).

I don't think this is set in stone as the next single. I wouldn't be surprised if at some point this disappears from Cool New Music

I don't think this will go #1 CHR. However I can easily see this doing top 10 just off of Telephone/Bad Romance alone. I would say this has 25-30% chance to see #1.

I would say this has 25-30% chance to see #1. agreed. as I said in either the "Telephone" or "Bad Romance" ( i don't remember which one) thread (s) this will probably under-perform in the U.S. , "Monster" is the most obvious choice here, this will most likely break her #1 streak

The good thing is that this is at least a little different. But if the plan is Alejandro/Speechless for 3/4th singles then I can see her streak ending, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Radio will need a breather before they wear out from her and are hit with the first single from her second/third project, the good thing to this is that Speechless will surely give her that when it's released. I still see her suffering from overexposure, soon though if she doesn't chill just a bit. After having two huge re-release hits and six #1's in a row this will likely slump a bit and Speechless will surely not smash. She'll only make it worse if she jumps straight to another single. I don't see why she can't just relax until mid or late 2011 after Speechless wraps and dies in the fall.
