Not here for this song though. Where is Under the Tree, the alleged All I Want For Christmas Is You-killer?

Speaking of the holidays

http://www.eonline.com/news/470180/lady-gaga-and-the-muppets-team-up-for-holiday-tv-special

Lady Gaga is teaming up with the Muppets again!

I can exclusively reveal that the "Applause" superstar and the famous puppets recently shot a television holiday special together for ABC.

Details are being kept under wraps (and we certainly wouldn't want to spoil any of the surprises for you!), but I'm told the colorful production took place in Los Angeles.

I guess after the success of her Thanksgiving special ABC wanted her back

JT -79%

Welp

That's a decent start for Miley, though obviously nowhere near the start that her media frenzy would have possibly lead many to conclude. On the other hand she almost tripled the start of the immigrant and the demon, so she remains the HBIC of Disney.
 
New ARTPOP snippet on Thursday, another one next Monday, then Venus next Friday, lyrics every day until November 11th, and most likely an album leak on the 4th.....

I have a feeling I'm gonna get to know ARTPOP well before it's supposed to come out. Not sure I like that. Lol

Yeah, JT is flopping. Massive drop considering how poor his first week sales were compared to part one.

He is going to struggle mightily to ever reach platinum.



Edit: Oh....and Emblem 3 sold more their first week than Cassadee Pope.

Well deserved. I don't know about the general public, but all of this seemingly universal JT fellating over his "legendary" status turned me off quite a bit, especially with the sonic thud that was 20/20

I think it's clear now that 20/06 sold so well because of the "return" factor as well as millions spent on marketing. While 07 didn't get nearly the same amount of promo, you'd think it would have still sold better if people actually liked 06, not to mention stuff like VMAs.

The public gets stuff right every now and again.

Poor Kesha and Xtina though, their careers sacrificed so JT could get some airplay (which didn't even help him sell many singles).

Volume 2 was a rushed released. He should've sat on it longer and fleshed it out more. I'm not sure why he thought it was good idea to release it so soon.

Because his entire comeback was a rushed release. The entire dual set was recorded in ~20 days. While I suppose that factor could be considered a positive for 06, it shows that 07 was nothing but outtakes and Z-sides.

Actually, last time I checked, the music in Part 2 is actually from the same recording sessions as the first 20/20 Experience.

This really is a great exercise in showing just how easily susceptible to hype "professional reviewers" are. It's funny reading reviews for Part 2, because a lot of them are criticizing the VERY things that were praised about Part 1. Oh, so now the bland production, lazy vocals, corny lyrics and 8-minute running-times are a problem? Why weren't they a problem the first time? They should have been. Not only is Part 2 in the same style as Part 1, but they're from the SAME RECORDING SESSIONS. The music is as identical as it can get.

So Part 2 is a nosedive in quality from Part 1, but what's really different here?

Hype and payola, that's what.

Well, I suppose it could have been worse.

Perched.

The Young Blood demo she released a while ago is life giving. Make a Scene is a fantastic album. And this trailer is giving me everything.

Slay moderately, Sophie.

I want longer snippets. The trailer left me wanting for more.

Her voice... so... beautiful

This is what so perplexing about the Pitchfork review. It's not like the production wasn't dull on Part 1. It's not like the songs weren't obnoxiously long, and didn't make use of their length well. It's not like the lyrics and themes on Part 1 weren't clichéd and eye roll inducing at times. There isn't that much of a difference between the albums. I bet the reception for part 2 would have been better if it was the leading album.

The hype of JT's return really did cloud people's judgments, you're absolutely right.

So where was Blurred Lines pt. 1 to explain the crap reviews for that?

BANGERZ sold more first week than any Rihanna album ever. How pathetic.

Rihanna is such a flop bitch. Completely devoid of star power, can't sing, can't dance, can't write, and now her leftovers that other artists take are outperforming her own music.

Hopefully this is a sign that a cure for the Bajan venereal disease that has racked the earth for the past 8 years is imminent. Yall shade 2013, but it was a blessed year if only for the lack of new Rihanna music.

Now let's just see if Miley can do it 6 more times, ok?

ibs5DOgxcGCnkd.gif
 
I was miles off Miley's actual numbers. Think I predicted 410k.

You overestimated the number of people who actually give any shits about her sub-par music and those who are only interested in her for her Rebecca Black level of awful.

The latter obviously greatly outnumbers the former. And the receipts prove it.

Kiiii at people thinking 270k isn't impressive considering the dismal first week numbers most pop acts have been putting up this past year.
