"Already"... it's been almost a month since this came out. Also, Hot AC and AC might keep supporting it. It's predicted to stay in the top 30 on the Hot 100 for a 4th week and new remixes/versions are coming tonight, possibly a video soon as well. It is very stable wether you like it or not xoxo.
nathanspears Posted September 22, 2022 Author Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) It's already far exceeded my expectations so I'm happy no matter what happens Hopefully the streams keep ticking over and any remixes add some more sales and it can get a few certifications on top Edited September 22, 2022 by nathanspears
Ghiles Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 Well yeah... Z100 was playing this 5-6 times a day, now we barely get 2 spins out of them. Besides a few exceptions, radio stations in the big markets are being really bitchy, especially when they pushed some songs that barely charted higher.

But it has already exceeded my expectations too so I’m Ok with this performance.

Multiple Spotify and Apple playlists. Billboards. Radio interviews.
Sweetestsecret Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 #77 (-6) on usa Spotify . It's done

The song does not even have a music video one month after its release, there’s no remixes and Britney has barely acknowledged it. Having a radio deal for a day and some playlists on Spotify can’t make it stable for months when the most basic things are not there in my opinion.

Having a radio deal for a day and some playlists on Spotify can’t make it stable for months when the most basic things are not there in my opinion. Music videos aren't that big of a deal in the 2020s. The David and Bebe song is smashing despite only just having a music video released. If you were expected a #1 smash then you should have lowered your expectations. The chance for a smash is so rare, especially when both artists are "legacy" artists. Top 10 in the US and top 3 in the UK is INCREDIBLE. I really think fans have gotten how difficult it is to get on these charts at all. To even be towards the top is a huge achievement. I'm very happy with the performance. There has been lots of promo and if Britney doesn't promote it then that's Britney problem and her decision Edited September 22, 2022 by nathanspears
Bizi Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 The remixes should arrive to NZ in about 10 minutes, no?

Breathe On Moi Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 Something is going to happen with this song, I feel it and I just know it.

There has been lots of promo and if Britney doesn't promote it then that's Britney problem and her decision I have stated multiple times in this thread that Hold Me Closer excedeed all of my expectations and that I was not even hoping for a Top 20 so I don't get why you're saying that I was expecting a #1 smash... but who cares, it is not important. I strongly disagree with what you said about music videos though. They might be less important nowadays but are still a huge part of many song's success. They're boosting the streams a lot and often create some buzz around the songs. Cold Heart's video has around 350M views despite it being an animated video. I don't get why HMC did not even get an animated video all. It's been released a month ago and would be helping a lot.
djkeith24 Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 I am not giving up on it yet, I still see potential staying optimistic
