okay i absolutely LOVE to see the success since i love the song but just wondering why the geepee are clicking with it so much?? do we have a multi-format, international smash in our hands? why?? how? is it..

 

a) the rollout from her team (dual single release, combined w/ the superbowl ad, availability on all streaming platforms)

b) the TikTok-appeal w/ 30k+ videos and an already viral dance in a matter of a few days

c) the popularity of country in the current music landscape + the discussion surrounding the black roots of its genre

d) renaissance being a+ music but only appealing to a niche (i.e. gays and their allies) and country being more gp-friendly

 

or all of these combined? someone write up an analysis @swissman

In the real world only thing that matters is whats popular and ppl just follow like a mass ...

 

So i would say b 

 

Its all about tiktok nowadays and if you manage to get a viral dance routine that targets NOT only the gays but especially hot str8 guys and girls , then you have a hit in your hands. Everyone will want to do it

This is going to be a big multiformat radio hit. 
 

The irreplaceable of the 2020s

When you release good music the GP tends to respond positively to it :cm:

this is already 100x times better than act I, so I’m glad it’s becoming a real hit for her.

 

The sudden jump in Spotify numbers is a little odd but Cruel summer also had a spike in streams so maybe it’s due to it being a Friday update

all of the above + renassaince was her first proper release in the streaming era so her numbers were hurt a bit by that… now she fully transitioned into a streaming girlie

the song was added to all the new music friday playlists (they update every friday but the song was released midweek so they added it for the current week)

It’s not odd, it got better playlisting as it was released outside of the normal schedule, and is going majorly viral on TikTok.

I meant more like I wouldn’t be surprised if Spotify revised the numbers for all songs like they did earlier this week after every song had an odd drop. It seems that there was some sort of technical issue this week

It's a bummer that this came out right after the Scammys because I'd have loved a performance of both this song and 16 Classics there.

 

I need her to give us another moment like this. It remains one of her best songs & performances ever.

Amazing how fast pop radio has taken to this song. Break My Soul and Cuff It did wonders for her on that format.

Eeeh I think it’s more than tik tok. It’s a combination of all that the OP listed. The streams upon initial release were really good prior to tik tok. It was even top 5 on AM in a couple f hours.

I highly doubt it because the radio spins and audience were little to none a few days ago, especially when you compared it to BMS that was swinging out the gate.

Doesn’t look like there’s a deal. All of the days so far are giving organic plays.

 

Renaissance era gave her a second life on pop radio. Country music has been having a bit of a moment there as well with multiple crossover hits so that probably helped a little too.
