Every video using the snippet of the 2021 version has been deleted off of twitter because of owning rights. The beat of that 7-seconds long snippet is the same as the intro with Gracie’s voice. You can easily recognize it.

 

 

Both versions have been copyrighted.
 

There’s one that i hate and there’s one that i like. If its the one that matches the Gracie snippet, at least its the one that i like imo. 

[MALAMENTE]

Its so funny how the ones that hated the song and didn’t want it released are the first ones to complain about Selena not promoting it much and complaining about the other releases on Friday. Like you didn’t want it in the first place so stfu about it not getting promo

selena delivers pop perfection after pop perfection since 2007

yall just have to trust the pop queen

 

but i'll be single soon

i'll be single soon

 

[MALAMENTE]

It might be a bit basic but who cares? She already said its a droplet and based on everything we know it will probably debut top 40 and become a medium sized hit at best. 
 

I think I’m just a bit mad at her postponing the album to next year when she will have a lot to do (S4, Emilia Perez, maybe another movie…) 

 

Still thankful that she is releasing something this year

i honestly think it would debut top 10 if it weren't for drake's new album. the hype is clearly here. 

but yeah, our chance is little to zero now with drake's bomb. only if tiktok eat it up to the point Drake would be defeaten, but that's just a sliiiight slight chance... i don't see it hapenning with this song. maybe after listening in full/watching the MV, but i don't think it'll happen.

it's very important that the single comes TOGETHER with the MV, cuz i think the MV will be very important to the song perception. 

 

imagine look at her now without the MV?

I would have lost it

but yeah, also kinda wondering how it will end up

I remember finding the production on Back to You to be kinda meh for me at first but then I loved it

[Don]

Well she is already on the song of the summer so it's fine if this is not going to be a big hit

[popularmoonlight]

This is really her come back song. Why not release a very strong track? I also think this sounds a little bit mid. She could debut at #1 if she wanted to with a high quality bop

even if it’s just a droplet why would they not treat this as a full single? this feels like a comeback and i’d argue her celebrity status is even higher than when LYTLM dropped 

People are making a fuss over this song. It's not the lead single, but it's still a comeback, she's been without music for almost 1 year, it's her comeback, it's not a "not important" song, in fact an insider said that sg3 depends a lot on how this song does. If it hits, I think she'll start the era as soon as possible, if it doesn't work out, she'll rewrite and redo things. 

 

Only time will tell about the importance of this song, for now we don't have any releases, but we'll see the playlisting on Friday and if we'll have radios in september.

Is there a chance that u’ve listened to the old version in full? Cuz the snippet from a version that yep sounds like a Rare reject has been online since 2021. 

Or did the u one u listened already started with this more upbeat beat: 

https://x.com/portalselenabr/status/1692947573173113082?s=46&t=mi38Td2Dx_Bd8kMebsEnhA 
 

im just asking cuz i find the old snippet very rare reject, but i dont find that the upbeat one sounds like a rare reject. It sounds kinda like a When The Sun Goes Down meets Rare. It does still has a rare vibe but more mixed with “pure pop” in a way? Idk.. 
 

both leaked snippets are from the chorus, one more acoustic and the other more upbeat. 

 

I know it won't be similar, but the intro is giving Heart to Break by Kim Petras.

Both of u are right. If it ends up not being a great song its cuz her team is so obsessed with songs they THINK would do well on tiktok like Boyfriend or I Feel Pretty, when in reality this is umpredictable (calm down, people you know, SOL, LYLALS and etc) 

 

but i’m faithful it’ll be a bop cuz i personally love the uptempo snippet.

One thing has nothing to do with another LOL 

[Selegend]

But something that i noticed that is a selenator thing (and thats bad) is not having faith on Selena’s songs before they get released. When she’s already served us SO many bops. I dont see this with other artists.. when its bad, they say its bad, but they’re never melting down before release afraid that it will be bad tf. And thats even from artists that really aren’t clicking anymore, their stans still have faith. After all she’s served a lot of bops for us during her career. And it is contagious, cuz i wasn’t like this at all but with this release i am also afraid lol. 
 

thank god she’s also an actress and business woman.

THIS. and some fans are complaining because there are other fans complaining by the lack of promo and radio treatment  i mean WTF

[lauren198]

they got so shock with the reactions to the snippet that didn't even post teasers anymore

I mean it kind of does. If the many fans on Twitter who even went as far as to wanting her to cancel an already planned release because it was an old song now want it to get promo, that’s disingenuous and hypocritical. They didn’t want it, so just ignore its existence. 
They are the same fans who will boast if the song is a hit. Like, no, they don’t deserve it, cause they wanted it locked somewhere. 
But whatever. They know who they are and are just lying to themselves 

[lauren198]

she should make a full album just with these three producers: Ian Kirkpatrick, Jon Bellion and Andrew Watt

I think that's important. Her team needs to learn how to listen to the fans. That bulls*** of always put the fans in that ''toxic'' place won't bring nothing good to her. Look at Taylor. Her fanclub is so close to the fans, they always listen to them.

 

If the fans don't like the song, that's probably because the song isn't good. And that's it. The fans only want the best for her career.

 

Selena already released Fetish, Bad Liar, Lose You To Love Me and so many other great songs, we don't want to see her regressing. If she wants to release an old song, why don't release Stained? A fan fave song? If it won't get promo, there's no reason to hold a fan fave song and release a song that the fans didn't liked.

[MALAMENTE]

Also, you are all making this release way more dramatic and big than it is. This is no comeback. She’s been playing on radio the whole damn year and she’s released music every year nonstop since 2013. She’s never left so she is not coming back. To the GP she is still a contemporary popstar. It would be a comeback if her last release was Rare back in 2020. 
 

Also, she is Thee Selena Gomez. She doesn’t need to be “tested” by her label to make sure if they need to spend money on her. She has enough money to fund a video, rent studio time and pay the best producers. At this point she is in a label so she has someone to distribute the album. But other than that, she is fine. She is not a new artist that needs to prove themselves so the label doesn’t drop them. 
 

And even if it were a test to see if she needs to change or scrap music, why would she use a 2017 song for that? Shouldn’t she release a song from the new sessions to see if the music is well received? It wouldn’t make sense to release an old song to confirm her new, completely different music will be successful. Doesn’t make sense. She probably is releasing this because she liked it back then but felt didn’t fit neither Rare nor the narrative/life phase she was living at the moment and kept it in the vault. She is happy and carefree now so it is right to release it. If Single Soon is a taste of anything, it is the theme of the song and not the music itself. 
 

Also, the fans can and is most times wrong because if this same situation had happened to Bad Liar or even LYTLM, trust me that they would have reacted the same way because they HATED Bad Liar and most were not ok with her lead single being a ballad. Let’s not rewrite history. Fans are fickle that just want what’s in and what will make her look good on social media. They should take into consideration the fan’s feedback after the releases are out, if anything. She is Selena Gomez, not Tori Amos or BJork; she is still a pop artist.

I mean, they are still her fans. Stop making them look like toxic people, they just want the best for her. Feel Pretty is a really BAD song, Single Soon is probably a ''ok'' song based on the snippet. She is into her peak moment, that is the moment when she should release a strong and nice song, a song that will be loved by the gp AND the fans (she has had so many strong songs like that in the past). The fans don't want her to release a song that could be in the 2011 album

At the end of the day — it’s just a song, nobody dies. She said it’s a fun song to close out the summer so let it be just that ✨
