chiliam Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 16 hours ago, State of Grace. said: I don't really care about having full eras again. She's on her 10th album so I don't expect her to promote like the new girls. The only thing I want is great music (guaranteed) and visuals (more than one video) and I will be grateful. No need to do much promo but she really should release more official singles with videos. Even if they drop, they will help the album longevity. And songs like Back to December, Begin again, Safe and Sound despite being flop when released has become somewhat cult classics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm almost certain she's financing her own videos now, so I'm not surprised she's cutting back on so many. OT: I have a feeling Dessner will make several appearances on the production credits. Don't know if I'm excited by that or not. Don't want it to sound like a rehash of Folkmore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GambleBreauxNews Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I really hope we get a single this week or next. I don’t want the rollout to be like Red TV where we hear nothing until release date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money is not really a problem for her though (like she randomly shooting I bet you think about me video knowing it wont do anything), its just that she is so involve in music video now, concept, writing, directing took a lot of times to plan so she doesn`t have all the time and energy for more. Maybe just hire Joseph Khan again. He might have a weird personality but he`s still the best music video director.

Red TV was massively undershipped for its first week on vinyl and I think they’ve learned from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will increase interest/hype and everyone will be forced to check it out first day to hear the sound. But it’s such a double edged sword because promoting a single drums up more casual listeners who would contribute to that first day number. What an impossible trade off to decide on.

Nah sis, a stable-streaming smash hit would ultimately be better than breaking the Spotify record. Plus, it is not impossible.

Kummercell Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I think it's very possible to average 7m per track she just needs a good lead single and people will check for the album and we can ask the army for chart manipulation tips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindsight Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 she needs a quality smasha before the album, something that's universally loved such as WD or Style the album cover is her best since 1989 so let's hope her ability to choose good singles is back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
