Maybe people just don't like the song that much? Why are people acting like people HAVE to buy the song because its "Katy's lead after 3 years"? She still has radio support and was Top 10 for a month despite the song clearly not taking off. 

 

I mean if her second single hits #1 then what? Will the sentiment change to "Oh well ofc it's Katy Perry with her quick lil singles." 

 

So annoying on this forum to constantly act like the GP is like ATRL. They will not buy or stream a song they don't like just because it's by an artist they like. They just aren't here for CTTR. If the GP likes the second single then they'll buy/stream it. That simple. 

 

And the audacity of two certain fanbases to keep coming for CTTR when your faves have discounted their recent singles multiple times while CTTR hasn't been discounted once. 

 

 

I don't even like Katy, her music, but I'm totally agree with you.

STFU i love katy and i like CTTR, i dont understand how the GP is not here for the song and i saw a lot of people praising it when it was released,  that was the reason of my post, i am not shading her

 

And even if i were i was talking about IAM what hasnt been discount anyway so the last lart of your post makes no sense at all

So what are you going to say when she does discount it? 

 

I'm really tired of the discount excuses for any song. Million Reasons (which you are likely referring to) is a hit with or without a discount. It had sold ~500,000 copies before the SB and discounts, which is hard to do in 2017 let alone where it's at now. Katy has discounted songs years back when it was very rare for a song to get a 69 cent discount in the middle of it's chart run. Wide Awake & TOTGA both had discounts on some version of them - and it doesn't take away from the fact they were hits as the kats remind everyone each time it's brought up. What's the difference now? Not much.

 

I don't think it's so easy to suppose that with Katy, the GP just don't like the song and the rest will be hits. Following her massive support for political opinions and candidates nearly half the country hate, I think it's fair to assume something else could be at work. Like with Gaga following her Born this Way album, Madonna following American Life, Dixie Chicks, etc.

Closer had narrowed the sales gap with Feeling significantly until the Oscars. But that gap has widened over the last three weeks, and I'm no longer certain Closer can eventually outsell Feeling.

 

Feeling will probably reach 3.2-3.3 M downloads, with Closer barely breaking 3 M. I have nothing against Feeling. I just want the bigger song to sell the most. Maybe with the BBMAs and the 2017 EOY boost, Closer can still come back and catch up with CSTF.

Maybe Closer will get VOTY at the VMAs and become the first lyrics video to not only be nominated but win

MR did NOT sell 500,000 without the discount. That could not be bigger bulllshit. It was discounted for Carpool Karaoke, Super Bowl, and damn near for 3 months of its total of what 5-6 months. Before the major promo and discounts it struggled to stay Top 100 so you expect people to believe it sold 500k before discounts?

 

I did not read the rest of your post because I assume it's as full of crap as your first paragraph.

Not surprised. Don't know why ATRL acts like she is huge when she's not

Two dark green updates in a row for "Million Reasons". Not sure if it happened with a discount after the SuperBowl.

A lot of Rih hit singles are re-entering the top 1000, why is that?  It's like they got discounted or something. It's random.
