PopFan1996 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 56 minutes ago, tbhmatt said: Yeah, the song is significantly outpacing As It Was, Stay, Blinding Lights etc at this point. These numbers aren’t sustainable though, and we’re far too early to start predicting on this song’s longevity and recurrent numbers. Catching up with Blinding Lights would be a MAMMOTH task given that song’s insane longevity. We don’t know what will happen with Flowers, there’s still a chance the song will fall just as quickly as it rose. It’ll probably break every “fastest song to” milestone up until 1 billion and then after that, who knows? Flowers reminds me of Hello by Adele in 2015. Similar consistency for 2-3months. Fastest song to reach 1B views on YouTube. but then the recurrent streams weren't very strong. So in fact, I think it's too early to tell. But the fastest song to reach 1B streams is definitely on-lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, anyone have a viable estimate for how many weeks we could see this at #1? Could she break the record? IMAGINE Looking like it'll have 500+ in it's second week Seems like it'll stay at #1 for at least 6 weeks. Idk about the record, too far away to tell Edited January 28 by PopFan1996 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbhmatt Posted January 28 Author Share Posted January 28 Total Unfiltered Streams: 238,496,638 Avg Unfiltered Streams: 15,899,776 She needs to do 61,503,362 more streams to achieve 300,000,000. To achieve this in the song’s 3rd week, she needs to do an average of 10,250,560 over the remaining 6 days. It is extremely likely she will exceed this number, based on today’s week-on-week decline compared to last Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scars Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) 10 hours ago, gloamingtheplain said: RCA is probably now studying this release and just figuring out you have to invest to see success rather than booking some random promo like it’s 2014 It's so frustrating to see the struggle their artists go through because they have no idea how to market music in the streaming era. See how they were already satisfied with Kill Bill's initial stats after it went viral on Tiktok to the point they didn't even bother to send it to radio to maximize it's potential of reaching new listeners. It was only sent to radio after SZA herself and fans begged online. Love SZA and Kill Bill deserved to be a #1 hit, but it's satisfying to know Miley is the one blocking the major hit of one of their artists to go #1. She has a history of proving their labels wrong after parting ways with them, Hollywood Records thought she was done after Can't Be Tamed and she gave Bangerz to the world. History is repeating itself ten years later. Edited January 28 by Scars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk about the record, too far away to tell the way she’ll likely stay #1 up until album release week and then the song will get another boost from the album and continue to prevail. Lowkey would be fine if it started to die down by then because I want this to be an era with SEVERAL smash singles (BANGERZ deserved better).

They only focus on the lead singles and ignore the rest. Harry Styles : As it was Adele : Easy On Me.

Radio deal and exposure on playlisting is the best promo you could ever ask for. The marketing strategy up to the release of the song was STELLAR. Everyone knew Miley was coming with a lead single. Now they will focus on album promo. Probably SNL and TV interviews when it'll get released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably SNL and TV interviews when it'll get released I know, I know. But I feel they could do more with traditional promo, like performances, radio interviews, talk show appearances. I get she’ll likely do that during album release and am grateful for the slayage they’ve provided thus far, I just want LEWKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a MV here and there, sending the songs to the radio and that's it. They care more about the album.

thatsmydemi Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Well... they have an excuse for promoting the second single poorly because Flowers is so big that it will cannibalize it - kinda like As It Was and the follow-up singles. Plus, a top 10 for the second single is basically on lock at this point. No way this hype will die anytime soon. Columbia will be okay with its performance as long as it goes top 10 and shows some longevity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbhmatt Posted January 28 Author Share Posted January 28 3 minutes ago, Mrnoniee said: Not it INCREASING !!!!!!!!!! the SMASHAAAA! Yes it’s great that the song rose again but Thursday-to-Friday increases are the standard and it will increase almost every Thursday-to-Friday, even when the song has passed its peak. Music consumption in general is much higher on Fridays. It’s a very impressive number, but songs rising on Fridays is nothing particularly noteworthy. It will drop again tomorrow and then further again on Monday (Saturday and Sunday streams are almost always lower) before climbing back up until it peaks for the week again the following Friday. It’ll more than likely follow that pattern every week with the weekly total slowly declining. The most impressive thing about this update is not the increase on yesterday, but the difference between the streams the previous Friday. She only dropped by -5% compared to the same time last week which is very minimal. The smaller the week-on-week decline, the bigger the streams, the more longevity the song will have etc. A smash, indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
