Lovett Posted May 3, 2023 Posted May 3, 2023 Just now, Frozen99 said: all it takes is just for her team to lift their finger the fact they didn't do too much for cuff it but it just went viral and became her longest staying single on h100 is just.. To be fair, with CUFF IT they did at least send it to radio and started giving it playlisting when it started showing signs of being a hit. But they flat out ignored ALIEN SUPERSTAR and AHAP when they were both showing early signs of taking off. Just so annoying.

Jai Posted May 4, 2023 Posted May 4, 2023 I don't get this being a single at all. Heated is cathicer, AHAP went viral already. Virgos Groove is meant to be a deep cut/gem. Disappointing.

Just a Gay on ATRL Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 Good song but it’s not a good single choice. It’s too long and doesn’t have a strong hook. 3rd single should 100% be America Has a Problem.
Jai Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 I can understand why AHAP isnt an option for her because a lot of people (gp) just wouldn't get it and go straight into defense mode at the title alone, but Heated is RIGHT there.
Pepo Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 I was team Alien Superstar, but I'm not mad. I wish the radio edit was executed better though.
swissman Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 (edited) This single choice is very exciting to me. I loooove AHAP though, and think HEATED is truly very commercial but VIRGO'S GROOVE is also clearly an album standout. And who knows? Maybe there will be another single too? Lemonade had five singles, none of which Beyoncé put any big emphasis on yet still released them. She could do the same for another. And Sorry and Hold Up were made singles not even a month apart from one another. It's technically possible for her to release a single right before the tour, and then one in the height of summer? But also, she could do no such thing lol. It's true though that the radio edit is a bit repetitive. I wish they found a way to add some sort of "bridge" or ad-lib in it because it's basically just the same thing over and over but maybe that's good in terms of getting it stuck in people's head? Anyway, the possibility of a remix is what really excites me here, given that the other two singles have had one too, and each has improved upon the original in some way.

trainsskyscrapers Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 (edited) Virgos Groove is a SOLID single for the UK/EU/AUS Market. I hope she makes "Heated" available to Rhythmic, "AHAP" to Urban, "Alien Superstar" to Top 40, and "Plastic Off The Sofa" to Urban AC on All Access. Don't formally send to radio but make each track "available" to give each format a focus single for the tour, and see where the chips fall. You guys might be right that the visuals or Act II is imminent. Edited May 5, 2023 by trainsskyscrapers

Hector Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) Released as the next single to Italian radio on June 5th: https://www.earone.it/news/beyonce_virgo_s_groove_radio_date_02_06_2023_74859411/ Climbing the Canadian airplay charts as per the article & has 100 million streams worldwide. Edited May 26, 2023 by Hector
Pepo Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 So BOTH Virgo's Groove and AHAP have just been serviced to Italian radios? Oh Gosh
BnPac Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 Why is her team even doing? AS and Heated are right there begging to be released. AHAP is an excellent song but it's too different to be a single without A LOT of promotion and acknowledgement which she simply won't do. Why not push it on Urban or as a promo single and also react timely when things happen lol? The way this album would have already potentially gotten 3 hits in AS, CI and Heated. And kept the album afloat and high on the charts. 2
