    Should there be a 6th single off of Born This Way?

    I bring this up because it appears Interscope has pulled the plug on "Marry the Night" and is no longer advertizing (or paying) for it to get added/played at American radio which probably means a 6th single announcement is imminent.

    But could a 6th single and continuing trend of diminishing returns cause more damage than good?

    As it stands, "Marry the Night" was her first single to miss the Hot 100 top ten (sneaking in a peak of #29), is her second consecutive single to miss the UK top ten and hasn't made the top ten in any major territory.

    Part of me thinks it's best that she move on to work for the next album but seeing as it appears the tour IS happening it would seem odd to launch one without any current singles out there.

    But then again, I don't see anymore HITS remaining. Perhaps "Scheiße" in Europe, and I wouldn't mind seeing the release of a well edited "Hair"

    She should just fuck off for a while. Tour if she likes but leave the album be. The diminishing returns rule will no doubt set it even further - from memory Marry The Night missed the Australian top 50 as well? Terrible result for her. The tour can keep the album ticking over slightly but I think anyone who genuinely wants it will already have it (or will buy it just before/after seeing her), I don't think further singles will turn it around much.

    Launch album #3 (or at least a buzz single) at the end of 2012 and give people a BREAK. Rihanna is able to pump out 50 singles in 3 years because she is a vehicle for it, it's relatively mindless, fun pop music. Gags is (well tries to be) more of an artist concerned with concepts, imagery and all that kind of stuff - which isn't as easy to swallow at such a constant rate - so piss off and come back in a year or two with something brilliant.

    She is a complete loon. It wouldn't suprise me in the least if she plans on releasing EVERY single from the album.

    I'd be happy with maybe one more single (the album is only six months old(!) afterall), tour through 2012, album in Summer or Fall 2013

    Yeah that's right. It came no where near the top 50, I do remember #70-#90 something.

    Ridiculous result. Even Dance In The Dark had legs and went top 30.

    In this new interview she's already hinting at a 4th album coming, hmm...

    Bad Kids I kind of love in a Stacey Q sort of way.

    I would love Scheiße or Bloody Mary, but I don't think they will do better than Marry the Night (which missed the Top 100 here )
    What's confusing? We just find the heart of the prison and the dragon who speaks without walls, and we're home free. Simple.

    It feels like this album has been out for an eternity. Definitely time to put it to rest, and come back with some catchy pop hooks, if she's still able.

    I know her singles don't do much these days, but I'd love to see a video for 'Sheiße'.

    Preferably NOTHING MORE, but if she does go for a 6th single the only song I would be interested in is Americano. I don't really think a 6th single would do all that well though, even with an X Factor performance Marry The Night never really took off.

    But let's face it, that was a completely wasted performance. She did nothing to sell the song. It was boring and kind of stupid too.

    I agree. Regardless of my personal feelings towards this tired bitch, all she's doing by releasing further singles at this point is weakening her "brand"

    She's probably going to come back with an ANTHEM for the GAY OLYMPICS or something.

    If there's one thing I need from Gags, it's another anthem about HOW TO BE A QUEEN!
