Twilish Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 Are we ready to admit IGGYB is top 2 on anthology or?

Magickarp Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 Haven't listened to that borefest () Fortnight since the Style version dropped. But these 2 remixes are kinda a sleigh
DevilsRollTheDice Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 I've seen the light on Broken Heart. It's fun, catchy, and weirdly relatable given its inspiration. Taylor gets a lot of mileage out of cheesy singles. She cashed that check a little too far (until it bounced!) with the Lover singles, but I think BH is the right second single. Fun narrative, too. That said, it still reminds me of diet soda lol. Something is just…missing. It's also too shimmery, I'm getting sick of that quality. DB, My Boy, and GAS are the obvious remaining choices. 1

Pretty much my thoughts. It used to be my skip (and sometimes it still is if I'm not in the mood), but it's a bit hollow and derivative. It's the best version of it's class of Taylor songs (as I've said, it's a cousin to Bejeweled and Gorgeous with a splash of Stay x3's inbred genetics thrown in), but I don't need any more of them As a single (and Italian radio adds are ******* weird so I don't necessarily think this is next in the US), I have a feeling it'd tank horrifically just because that sound is pretty DOA on radio these days, though the streaming numbers will continue to be insane, and it's certainly fast tracking itself to join DBM and august (and probably All Too Well TMV by that time) in the 1B non-singles club. 1

Dear Reader Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 (edited) Broken Heart > Snorenight but I'm sure I'll get some girlies mad Spoiler Even though this Acoustic version is kinda cute I guess… I just need her to put some effort in these, just record some different vocals Taylor pls… they did wonders on the instrumental Edited July 9, 2024 by Dear Reader
Arrows Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 Broken Heart is still really good when blasted on full volume in your home or in the car. But it just doesn't hit the same when played at a party, with headphones on, on the radio, as background noise or at any social event really, imo. I LOVED it at first listen, but it quickly fell down the rankings for me. It reminds me of Girlfriend by Avril; hit potential among the kids, but not something that'll help her brand, make people play the album or gain the respect of the GP.

Dear Reader Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 The sooner y'all accept that the first single should've been Down Bad/Toys, the sooner you'll find peace 1
Dear Reader Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 A normal era: 1st single (one or two weeks after the album announcement): Down Bad 2nd single with the release of the album: But Daddy I Love Him 3rd (promo) single during release week: loml 4th single to end the era: Broken Heart with a tour video
Dear Reader Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 sorry for the spam but what in the "youtuber" is this Fortnight remix? the instrumental sounds like those DIY videos
Goaty Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 I still think Down Bad should be the next single. Of the options we have left, it has the least burnout for me and I could see it doing well on radio 1
Goaty Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 I've been an obsessed fortnight hater since day 1 but the acoustic version is really nice really solidified that my only gripe with the song is the production
DevilsRollTheDice Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 (edited) I genuinely think a Down Bad remix with Gaga along with a high budget alien abduction video would eat and do well. Monsters are still a big enough fanbase to help send the song back to the top 5 (if not number 1 combined with Swifties) if we got Karma to number 2 with Ice Spice anything is possible. I think it's inevitable that she'll have to remix subsequent singles if she wants them to make noise. A So High School video featuring Travis would also be enough to push the song to actual hit status IMO. Don't think I could stomach the insane Gaylor "performance art" discourse though lmao Edited July 9, 2024 by DevilsRollTheDice 3
cruelhprince Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 the Hot 100 is too competitive and Fortnight is struggling to stay in the top 15 so I guess she just decided to push the album only
cruelhprince Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 can Fortnight freefall on radio already ***** move up or down idc do something 1
