swiftawaywithme Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Reminder that you can buy the song on iTunes and Amazon Music, and there's the album version of Cruel Summer to stream + the More Lover Chapter version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this goes #1, this will be a “for the Swifties” type hit. Anti-Hero will undoubtedly be the one they push for the Grammys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBeMe Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 7 hours ago, Squall said: I am not sure of this considering how dead YouTube is. mvs are dead for sure but honestly with the way the Eras Tour is slaying I think the fans and even public would flock to a professionally filmed performance from that tour (with maybe like a intro where Taylor talks about how this song is old but it made it to a single due to the fans or something cheesy / cute like that lol). Also if they discount the song on itunes that same week it could help boost pure sales. I am hopeful tbh! Remixes might be an overkill. We dont want her to have to depend on remixes always for her songs to hit #1 (not that they have but many of her more recent ones needed that little push which is ok of course). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it’s been speculated every week as of late… I thought the theory was that he was releasing next Friday, hence why Olivia is suddenly releasing her next single this week.

Oh okay, that is probably the case then. But why are the fans trying so hard to push for the #1? It has a better chance next week especially when Olivia is unlikely to debut at #1.

Peak Now Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 I don't even know if the official push is coming... Olivia releasing Aug 11 and potentially Aug 25, Drake probably dropping soonish, unless she wants to fuel the Tay/Liv feud rumours again that only leaves Sep 1 which is barely summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeepEnd Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 7 hours ago, perfectillusion204 said: It's gonna peak at #2 just like ME! & YNTCD. The Lover curse. But it's what she deserves for not making Cruel Summer a single back then tbh. I wonder how different her career would be today if she did release CS as the lead (or even 2nd single). Good thing we'll never know! CS as the lead and Lover as the follow up was so obvious. That being said, I feel like the backlash from ME! and even YNTCD motivated her to write exceptionally well on folklore/evermore to let people know her pen game is strong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omrimayo Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 "She could, she should bla bla bla..." As of now, they are doing nothing and this tracking week is about to finish so we just need to accept they won't. And Yes, this coming weeks filled with Olivia and Drake, it is stupid not to push it this week but whatever, still a huge hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Sunday it jumped a few spots on TTH and has been #2 on there since. They must have bigger plans soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klein Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Cruel Summer's rise has been so impressive to witness. I honestly could see it becoming one of her very biggest hits, in the lane of Shake It Off, Blank Space, Love Story or Anti-Hero. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
