alestevens Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 When i first heard it i was sure it was going to be a massive bomb It suddenly becoming a Youtube smash and doing good on Spotify makes me wonder what's in store for her next era. Does she have it in her to serve another era as big as El Dorado? Hope we get to know it soon! Link to post Share on other sites

Chantaje didnt even get a high placement on TTH despite the song being Top 15 on Global Spotify. It was the first Spanish song to truly smash on Spotify, right before Despacito changed the musical landscape forever. And that was the best received single off the campaign internationally. If she received the playlisting she truly deserved it would have been even bigger! Link to post Share on other sites
vuelve88 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Yes. Imagine if it were a good song. It would be doing even better. The key is that she put some effort into the music video by actually hiring a choreographer. So much better than the videos where all she does is look pretty on camera (“Me Gusta” ).

Me Gusta is tragic in every way. I thought she lost her cool factor for a lil minute when it underperformed. But the Superbowl and Girl Like Me seem to show she still has it in her to smash with the kids. But im gonna need a lead single with a proper rollout, i want to see which extent they're willing to go to keep her on top! Link to post Share on other sites

For example, her 90s Spanish album is one of the most streamed of that decade, she was the first artist to have songs with 100M+ streams from 4 different decades after Eminem, etc. Link to post Share on other sites
EtherealCat Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Yes, she just needs choreo for tiktok to succeed. Link to post Share on other sites
JustHoran Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I hate it and love her, wish she would do good music again. OT: Yes, it's good sign obviously. Hopefully she can smash with a good song. Link to post Share on other sites
Kimi Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 it’s terrible sign, song is completely atrocious and GP liking it will inspire her to release even more of that type of garbage Link to post Share on other sites
izzyinsane Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 The song is terrible. Especially that annoying ass witchy moan she does in the song “Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for”. Link to post Share on other sites

#FreeBritney Activist Erreur2 La Nature Posted January 9 #FreeBritney Activist Share Posted January 9 (edited) The song has not entered the chart of any important music market (US, UK, Germany, France, etc) Shakira always gets YT views. This is not saving the song. Edited January 9 by Erreur2 La Nature Link to post Share on other sites
queenoftheclouds Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I hope she comes back with an english album. Link to post Share on other sites
superben Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 When the pandemic dies out and sport events can resume next year, the World Cup would again be the most hyped event of the year, and if Shakira releases a song which a sports anthem vibe (even if it's not directly linked with FIFA), she would certainly have another smash, which would 100% be in the top 10 of the decade (WW).

ATWK Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I thought she was gonna enter her flop era after Me Gusta. (yeah, I know she was acclaimed for the SB, but still) GLM, as terrible as it may be, proves the public is still here for her. Imagine if she comes out with a La Tortura-type lead featuring Bad Bunny. Link to post Share on other sites

A collab with Bad Bunny is really likely to happen, personally I would love her to collaborate with The Weeknd for the next era, I think their voices would sound so good together On 1/9/2021 at 7:18 AM, Riot said: The song is charting in France and it's currently in the top 30 on Spotify (it peaked at #18 a few days ago).

Not sure she is going full english album soon, the last one she released was a great album and still underperformed, and her latinamerican success is non-stop, so I believe she will stay on reggaeton for a while with maybe only a couple english tracks Link to post Share on other sites
