ladygaga.wikia.com/... here it says if you go down a little bit that so........ "Later, she announced that she wanted to wait a new year in order to get a fresh start which meant to postpone the single to may 2013 and the album until later in the year. She also revealed in an online chat that either Tea or Ratchet will be the lead single from Artpop." so idk D:
Well it's just like born this way's announcement... THE SINGLE 2|11 THE ALBUM 5|23. She said for artpop the same thing: "THE SINGLE 8|11" So the single is ARTPOP.
I really do believe that 'the applause' is going to be a track on ARTPOP. Remember before Born This Way was released, Gaga was posting hints like these?
The first single is Burqa, it's on her Wikipedia page. If you type in Marry the Night on google, go to its Wikipedia it'll show you, I'll post the picture on my page.
