HMH is literally getting pop radio airplay. None of the songs in the tweet and in your post got that.

Just Look Up (a comedy song at that) debuting with more is 

Literally like no one knew that was a comedy song when they dropped it. (they just saw new Ariana song)

No shade to Ari, she's amazing and a force, but Just Look Up had massive promo with the movie release (which smashed hard on Netflix) + Today's Top Hits so it makes sense for it outdo Hold My Hand's weird release

Tank My Hand

 

 

I still like the song

[JohnWayneHolland]

905k I guess Taylor and Beyonce are also over since this got more streams than their OSTs? 

[Peroxide]

When seeing it in context next to all the other releases - this is... fine?

 

If they were pushing for a big debut, this would have had massive playlisting, a video and a Friday release... but OGH's will just label them as "excuses" and continue their circlej*rck.

900k and not even top 200? Seems like it's just liddos mass streaming

Bey fans should be very quiet

Well the Monsters made countless threads telling her that Spirit was the bomb of the century and the fact that it was such a huge bomb meant Beyoncé was completely over. 

 

You guys are such hypocrites. And I haven't read the other pages but I just know somewhere there some of you played victims.

None has a proper single treatment with radio adds like HMH

Why should we? You guys bombarded the whole site with Spirit's, Be Alice's, The Gift's threads and you even programmed an invasion of our base thread for an hour. 

 

Anyway Hive should stay away from this toxicity, Gaga is thankfully not monsters. 

 

OT : nice debut.

But Ariana's song was dropped like 3 weeks before the film was released.

so a 2M+ overall radio AI song w no first week radio deal is suppose to garner more exposure than the biggest playlist there is (TTH)

It’s KatyKats. Her last single with a male feature and over 50m playlisting also did below HMH:

 

 

ot:

Solid debut in comparison to others. Poor OGH

Are the other soundtrack numbers being compared to this also unfiltered though? And comparing first day streaming numbers to soundtrack singles released in 2019 (like Taylor and Beyoncé's) is not exactly the best comparison considering the Spotify user growth has increased by 168% since then. If you multiply their streams by the factor that users have grown, they're actually over/near 1million.

 

Anyway, ATRL keeps proving itself to live in a cycle of nonsense where no one can ever underperform and if they do, it's not only a negative to the artist, it's a plus to everyone else. This really makes no sense and I guarantee you the public / their image / their position isn't bothered by what number a soundtrack single debuts at...

Difference being Taylor and Beyoncé don't rely on OSTs for success because all their studio albums in the last 10 years bombed

For reference, here are Shallow’s first week Spotify numbers WW

27/09 - didn't chart - Thursday

28/09 - #54 1,609,651 - Friday

29/09 - #88 (-34) 985,853 - Saturday

30/09 - #107 (-19) 773,252 - Sunday

01/10 - #89 (+18) 932,056 - Monday

02/10 - #88 (+1) 951,854 - Tuesday

03/10 - #81 (+7) 987,574 - Wednesday

 

Hopefully HMH's numbers will increase once the movie comes out, but the songs needs better playlisting first  this I Get A Kick Out Of You-level playlisting is not it 

Yes, this really isn't bad. Mostly when you see Shallow didn't even debut 1st day. 

It will grow with the movie. Like I said in another thread, the new song was also being teased in metros in Milan, I know French radios are going to spin this to death, it's radio friendly. 

 

Also I hope we can come to the conclusion that sometimes side-projects succeed but it's not usually the case and it's very rarely right out of the gate.

what does that mean? that everybody should know about the song on the first day because it is getting added to radio on may 10th? it had 4m playlisting reach and outdid the ones I listed so its performing at the same level as most OST if not better but you guys will try to find anything to complain about to makes yourselves feel good? idgi you guys sound miserable.

[Protocol]

Yeah it’s not a hit. The chorus isn’t catchy enough.
