Blackout2006 Posted April 13 Posted April 13 23 hours ago, State of Grace. said: Muffy sis...the revisionism. Don't Start Now and Levitating both took months to reach #2 on the Hot 100. Break My Heart did well on radio but it didn't go Top 10. Cold Heart and Dance The Night also took ages to reach their final peaks. I'm not saying that this era's hits are bigger, but she's doing fine and there's no need for this kind of fear-mongering. For some reason stans have convinced themselves that Dua is on Ariana's level in the US or something? and the discussion surrounding her performance in the country is usually loaded with bad faith. Performances might sound useless to most girls but they do actually work for Dua and we've barely had any this era. Meanwhile she was jumping between the EMAs, SNL, The Voice, Ellen, The Tonight Show, the AMAs, on Dick Clarks New Years Rockin Eve, Good Morning America, and eery single stage on earth for Dont Start Now and Levitating. The biggest push this era got so far in the US was the Grammys performance and that resulted in Houdini's dance break going viral and the song getting a significant boost in streams. Plus, if I'm not wrong, even Levitating took some time to become the era's behemoth hit that it was. It came out in October 2020 and actually started smashing in early-mid 2021. 2

Hopefully that's the case.
Pinter Posted April 13 Posted April 13 Her ability to recycle the same song for every albums needs to be applauded, but people Will get tired of it sooner or later if she keeps singing the same tune over and over again she needs to re invent her image/sound because its really kinda boring and expected at this point' it wont work like magic like her previous works...it felt lacking...and boring... 2

Doing Coachella now wouldnt make sense, she will do it next year to promote tour and re-release of RO

T.O.A.D.S. Posted April 13 Posted April 13 The instrumental kinda sounds like the transition music BBC uses during sports coverage I can literally hear the presenter saying 'next up we have the men's 400m relay event'

ATRL Moderator kelly-clarkson Posted April 13 ATRL Moderator Posted April 13 A bop! I think it's my favorite from the other 2 songs
Solaria Posted April 13 Posted April 13 I can't believe people would use any girl as stan fuel against Dua.. she's one of the least problematic pop stars she just minds her business and gives us bops. Smilers have lost the plot 1
Post Malone Posted April 13 Posted April 13 Wait it's kinda bop of the century rn... maybe @Mark Rih won this time 2
Drowned8World Posted April 13 Posted April 13 what is going on with the gays on twitter? they are trying SO hard to hate this song are they all alergic to bops now? just go and listen your boring indie artists if you want something dIfFeReNT!!1 2

Smilers have lost the plot i really don't get it. but then again she's unfortunately always kind of been an easy target/punching bag on there…partly due to not have a big online fanbase presence
