Somewhere in a dark corner Christina Aguilera is finding joy in life again. and to this day, she is still on y'alls minds. You just had to bring her up.. Didn't you? lol Anyway.. I love "Judas" and I seriously did not expect it to under-perform like this.. I thought it would be top 10 by now on POP but oh well... The video might change this or might not. Couldn't help myself... I think no one expected it to underperform like this. In the end though, I still think this will become a hit but merely because of her jamming it through everyone's throat. This does make me curious to her album sales though. I mean, if ''Judas'' can barely sell 350K in 3 weeks for $1,29 then how much could the album possibly do?

Give it a few more days before y'all start screaming "LOLZFLOP". On second thought, don't do that at all, cuz it's not a flop. And LOVE, don't spam plz.
I'm sure it will pick up soon enough. This is too catchy for radio to not be eating up.

everybody needs a flop. artists need them to stay grounded, and stans need them aswell. I like gaga, i do. I liked her more in the beginning before she started talking real slow and like she was in pain. like the time when she was asked if she ever dressed down and she was like "no" in a slow painful way like how dare you ask that. look biatch, you write and sing songs. you're not a piece of art. don't take yourself so seriously. now enjoy your flop single. he he he he

Have there been cases where songs have recovered from this kind of slump? It would be one thing if the song had a natural slowdown, but an actual decrease in spins at this point is a disaster.

So at theloveable kind. Not good to see this losing spins. I would call it just a bad day, but it had a 'bad day' yesterday and the day before... I hope this gets better. It's not dead or a flop lock-in, but it is worrying. :(

smh @ everyone still freaking out. "oh no! half a million AI loss this past week! EPIC FLOP!!!!!!" this has only been out for three weeks (I think?) and everyone wants this in the top 10 or #1 already? That wouldn't be a good signal for the rest of the era. I knew this would have a more normal chart run, but the spin/audience losses are worrying me a little bit, I admit. If it's still doing this two weeks from now, then we could probably say that it flopped. But the key thing is to WAIT. Like Jesus, patience is also a virtue, my friends. ;)

Rob Thomas. His first solo single was sliding down the chart, but after the CD debuted at #1. Programmers took another look. This is a little different - it's almost like Judas should have been 1st single and BTW the second to launch the album. LG will be fine.

It's Top 15 on radio and went Top 10 on the Hot 100. While that would be extremely underperforming for a GaGa single, it's really not a flop to go Top 10 on Hot 100 and Top 15 on radio.

It's not a "flop" but it's pretty safe to say that a song with the 3rd highest bullet of all time (it beat Just Lose It, right?) 4000 or so, that can't break 5000 spins after 3 weeks isn't exactly doing great.

The fact that this is at #26 on iTunes is a reflection of public sentiment over the song.
It is not like it is only underperforming in the USA.
Look at the iTunes charts in Canada, U.K., France, Germany, Australia, and Spain.
It is underperforming on a GLOBAL SCALE.

Looks like the attempt to be controversial finally backfired.
I hope she has "lighter" songs on this album to release. If not, she may be in trouble this time.

This is a dud, plain and simple. Is this higher than BTW AI wise? Judas is at 35.290 AI all formats via mediabase numbers. BTW is at 35.003 AI on Pop/Hot AC/AC alone. So pretty much if BTW is getting like any remaining Rhythmic/random other format play (which I'm sure it is), then it's ahead of Judas.

I think the level of sycophancy surrounding her at all times is just too off-putting at this point. People just can't take it anymore.
I was face-palming throughout the whole interview with DJ White what's his name.
I'm just waiting till one of her lackeys starts claiming she invented homosexuality and David Bowie/Annie Lennox were copying her, not the other way around. You just know it's coming in the near future.

I was only trying to emphasize the fact that this has only been out for a very short time and it's way too early to call this an underperformer. By no means did I intend to call this a flop; I apologize. I'll watch what I type from here on out. ;)
I really do hope this turns around and smashes like I know it will; it's too catchy not to. Should at least peak within the top 5 or right outside of it at worst.

With 'You and I' being performed on Idol last night by Haley, any chance Jimmy Iovine was throwing it out there as a test? It is likely an album track, but California King Bed is coming out and I never thought that would be a single either.

Better than BTW music video! She looks a bit normal. Her dance improved a lot!

the definition of a flop is different for every artist. for an artist of gaga's calibur, if this was to peak now, it would definitely be a flop. for an nonestablished artist or b/artist, it would be a hit.

Thoughts after 2 views : - The 1 minute of her on the motorcycle could be a bit shorter
- The guy with the thorn crown is...
- Of course she's in her underwear again...
- Better dancing than Born This Way
- The guy with the peter jacket is...
- I love her blue outfit.
- The part where she looks like a clown has got to go,
- I don't get the part with the waves and stuff...?
- Actually I don't get almost all of the video...
- ...Are those crosses on her nipples?
It needs to sink in some more, but B- IMO.
