Right now the UK is pretty irrelevant to Brand Britney.. She's doing very well on streaming in the US. It seems we're finally seeing her develop into a streaming act in the 21st century instead of being regarded as a nostalgic act trapped in the 20th century. She's already outpeaked Pretty Girls on Spotify; she is only a few million AI from out peaking its radio peak too.

 

Also the cover art is impeccable and gives me hope for the album photo shoot.

 

Britney is serving like she hasn't in years.

 

FFS! :lol:

 

Lmfao!

 

And I love your signature! :lol:

She's in the "US Top 50" playlist now, under featured charts. Assuming it works that playlist has the same effect as it does in the UK, that should give her and even bigger leg up over the next couple of days.

!!

Dead.

Tyler, is that you?

 

(p.s. I love my sig too, I'm Daffy Duck clearly)

I am absolutely addicted to this song. IMO, I think it's the best lead single she's released since Womanizer. I always buy britney's single regardless - I even bought the crock of s**t that was PG, however this is the first song I genuinely can't stop playing since TTWE. It deserves to be a hit. Fact.

I have big soft spots for Work Bitch and Perfume but it's for me her best single since TTWE too.

Added by 137 US CHR stations.

 

(To compare to Katy, "Rise" was added by 80, but gaining sufficient traction in Hot Adult Contemporary)

Left top100 in UK.

That's looking pretty awesome!

#28 for Tuesday's UK midweek.

Hopefully video is our Friday so it can get a huge gain its second week!

A video in the second week is usually one of the best strategies for artists using an OA/OS release but aren't quite able to rely just on airplay to keep them up. It means the fanbase all rush to buy in the first week and the second is focused on expanding the song's audience. The video will inevitably give the song a boost so it's good to do it now whilst it is just starting to fall, meaning it won't have far to climb to get back up to a decent position, in comparison to if they waited until the song fell to, say, #100. Plus, it will hopefully mean Capital stay on board because they have a habit of removing songs too early just because it seems like they're 'flopping', despite it being the radio station at fault for not recognising the nature of most OA/OS releases.

I'm worried about this with Capital too, it's on their lowest (daytime) playlist right now which is good but not amazing. She really needs to get the video out within the next few days. With Now coming out on Friday it could have quite the freefall on iTunes.

Britney is serving like she hasn't in years.

 

 

I think this is the main reason she is serving like she used to in her prime. I think the constant traveling to tour/promote right after her troubled times is the main reason it has taken her a decade to finally regain that spark and believe in herself again. Circus & Femme Fatale, while fantastic albums, were really done just to keep Britney's brand at an iconic level, while keeping the several products she has released selling at that top dollar. Britney makes 80% of her money off merchandise, touring/Vegas, perfume, endorsements etc. What keeps those things at such a success? Britney being a successful pop icon. (Even though she could retire tomorrow and her perfumes alone would keep her and the entire Britney Brand employed for decades to come.

 

I think they finally found what makes Britney beam about her career again, and that's doing what she loves while not having to compromise her time down with her family. Vegas is localized, yet an effective way to still perform for the majority of her fans. Do I think she should tour Europe, South America and Canada? Yeah! But, I know focusing on North America is what is really making her able to focus on getting back to her old self.

 

I know the USA, Brazil (most of South America stans harder for Britney than the US, but the US is still her most profitable), Canada, UK, France and then I forget the last... It's either Germany or Japan.

 

With that being said, the U.K. used to rival the US for being her most profitable market (percent wise). But, that has fallen significantly with each album since 'Circus'. And TBH, I think she is okay with just keeping her brand profitable outside of North & South America. I do think she cares about Europe to a certain extent, but, being an international success is just a bonus to her now and not a priority. And I'm not complaining even if she flops outside of her main market because the material she is releasing now is PHENOMENAL! Quality >>> Sales.

 

I'm worried about this with Capital too, it's on their lowest (daytime) playlist right now which is good but not amazing. She really needs to get the video out within the next few days. With Now coming out on Friday it could have quite the freefall on iTunes.

 

From multiple sources, Britney and Larry Rudolph have put in a large sum of money from their own pockets to get the video ready by Friday (July 22nd), which was the songs original planned release date, with August 5th being the original planned release for the video. Which is also why promo was not planned until this weekend.
