I'm curious about her next move. This was supposed to be her triumphant comeback, backed by Atlantic after she left Columbia Will the label shelve her or pressure her to tour? And if it's the latter, will she give in or switch labels again?

Honestly, I don't care about commercial success. Something Beautiful features many of Miley's best songs, yet it was a total flop (no one will ever convince me that "Walk to Fame" shouldn't have been the lead single, but that's a topic for another time ). The only thing that gives me pause is that Atlantic is notorious for shelving or mistreating artists who don't deliver the expected results. Luckily, my dear Ava Max managed to escape that madhouse, but Miley has already switched labels several times, and given these numbers, I have no idea how much confidence Republic or any other label would have in her.

I support Miley having other priorities in her career and personal life, I just wish she would stop talking about tours in interviews when she has already said she has no plans to do them My only criticism would be the way she phrased it. The idea that she doesn't need to move when her fans will go to where she is sounds terrible and deaf, so I understand the frustration of international fans, especially those from Latin America (that doesn't justify attacking her though).

She'll almost certainly perform with Sabrina and (or) Kylie, but what I need most is a performance of Danceteria

The only good thing about this tanking is that if the song doesn't perform well enough to reach the Hot 100, they could release that promising remix early

The teaser sounds promising and a welcome change from "143," so I'm sitting down. The only thing I don't understand is this rollout of dropping hints from one announcement to another announcement, which then leads to an interview about another announcement. I'm not even going to expect anything from Capitol Records -___- but if the stars align, maybe this will be the year they finally promote Katy properly

"Zombieboy" is certified diamond in my house, so...

I read all 11 pages of the thread and I'm surprised no one mentioned one of the biggest sales drivers: Disney collectors. They're voracious consumers and the reason I didn't get any of the TS5 vinyl records (and many Swifties too). If Disney is already shipping the CDs, it's probably because they have enough to keep the song on the charts for a third week. And if they decide to restock the vinyls and even autograph copies from Taylor, you can be sure sales will skyrocket.

I don't think I chose "Wonder" because of its potential as a hit or its virality, but because of the message the song conveys, especially when performed in USA. Maybe I'm just overanalyzing, but that's what I think

I know that the people in the Songwriters Hall of Fame heard the masterpiece that is "cowboy like me" and were so gagged that they felt compelled to induct Taylor

As long as there's a song that resonates with the audience and/or goes viral on TikTok, Dua (and any artist, to be honest) can remain successful even after a flop album. TTPD didn't perform well, but "Ophelia" is a hit and popular song. Billie didn't have a massive hit with HTE, but she did on her next album (BOAF). This also works in reverse: neither Sabrina, Chappell, nor Miley Cyrus had big hits on their latest albums despite releasing huge songs on their previous ones: Espresso vs. Manchild, GLB vs. The Subway, Flowers vs. all Something Beautiful (Justice for Walk of Fame!). Again, I don't think a bad album is the defining factor of a declining career these days And even if it were, Katy Perry flopped with 143, but she's still gaining streams with her back catalog, so her bank account will always be over six figures—she'll be fine.

"Into You" is not only one of Ariana's most representative songs, but it also boasts some of the best production in her catalog, showcasing her full vocal talent. (My favorite track on the album is "Knew Better", so I'm happy to have received the second part today, although it's a shame we only got one bonus song ). Edit: typo

If Anne Hathaway reads this, I'm your number 1 fan

NuevaYol would be a great song to start the show with, just saying
