American musician/actress Lady Gaga (from Manhattan, New York) claims the top spot on Tad's LGBT Music Chart at midweek with "Disease", moving up 3 more places from the weekend's #4 position. The video features Lady Gaga confronting different versions of herself as she attempts to regain control of her deepest fears personified. According to SoundCharts, the track has achieved #1 on the official airplay or streaming charts in 70 different countries. It reached #1 on The Spotify Global Chart as well. Over the past half-week, the video for "Disease" has gained an additional 1,361,632 views on YouTube (which is an increase of 4.32% since the weekend's chart).
