omrimayo Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 It really feels since BB canceled the site sales, they are a bit lost. I mean, they could do anything with iTunes but it doesn't seems this way, also I'm sure if there was a video we would have seen it by now, or teased, I really feel she feels it's huge anyway and the peak ain't matter (weird for her standards but I really feel so)
Peroxide Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 My guess is this might have come down to budget? So perhaps the budget they put aside for ICSY was used for Cruel Summer? And naturally the money for playlisting/promotion etc has just run it's course... that, and perhaps they want to give a vault track from 1989 a BIG push... maybe they didn't want Cruel Summer interfering? Still... it was right there for the taking.
HRHCOLLECTION Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 i think her LA post will be the cruel summer tour video... i can only hope 1
Squall Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 I thought FC was declining while it was already close last week so why is it still close?

Feanor Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 But yeah, I think her focus right now is clearly on '1989 (TV)', and everything else is secondary, even the tour itself. Her ignoring her historic 6-show run in LA and instead posting about a vinyl variant (of which there are 2 more to come) is very telling…

Green Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 The way everyone keeps predicting Drake to release week after week and nothing happens lol I bet he's releasing after Olivia's album so Cruel Summer still has chances to be #1 1

Maroonx Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 Well it's peaking on radio this week. So it's now or never for this being #1

I think she'd rather save that fan energy for buying her albums. Digital download for 99c or less is a much smaller ask than some CD single in the range of $3.99 + shipping, unless she's happy to take a considerable loss on each sale. Dua and Billie could sacrifice that for a much smaller demand. Taylor could take a huge hit if her fans go bananas for a cute looking cassette at a steal-worthy price.
