The fact that the More Lana SOTB is about to pass 100 million and Ice Spice Karma only just reached 60 million

Lately, it's been on repeat, I love Miss YOYOKO Ono 

Edited September 25, 2023 by Ger-55

YOYOK  

This should be a single at some point (or Midnight Rain).

[Enrique523]

I don't think she should keep the Midnights era going, it's clearly done at this point. No other single would take off.

Who cares if the single takes off. Getting some visuals for YOYOK would simply be great.

Taylor and her label cares, i can guarantee you that. Nobody releases singles only for charity.

That's factually false. Taylor herself already did. 

 

Anyway, I don't see how that changes anything about a fan hoping for another video for the Midnights era. And saying "she won't release another single because it wouldn't work" and saying "I don't think she should keep the Midnights era going because no other singles would take off" are two very different things.

The thing is: she's about to enter the 1989 TV era, i personally am not interested to see them pushing the Midnights era any further, especially with Cruel Summer still smashing so hard. At some point, she's gonna need to take a break so she can create anticipation for TS11. She's not being overexposed YET but i don't want her to risk it, one 2016 was already traumatic enough.

I don't think if she pushes anything else from Midnights it should be now either. Actually, I think a YOYOK video would be great after all the re-recordings are out, as a sort of conclusion. 

 

And she's MUCH more overexposed than ever before. If overexposure was a thing, she would have already suffered from it.

Yoyok as she deserves!! the bridge itself deserves 1 billion streams.

We'll see i guess. I'll support her in anything she does, i'm just not that interested in another Midnights single. My mind is 100% focused on 1989 TV and the rest of the tour right now.

[Feanor]

I think she can let '1989 (TV)' get all the attention in October/November, and then in December, post-Grammy nominations, she can release a final single + MV for 'Midnights' as her Grammy campaign.

[KingWitch]

Lol not a random album track getting 400mil streams,she truly is unstobble 

[unclefloprry]

The fact that I heard YOYOK live
