The truth is, her team need to do better. Leak or no leak, they should gave saved Dancing until the week of the promo (I mean, proper promo as in SNT), and the song would have stood a much better chance of sticking around (probably would have spent a week top 5/6ish on iTunes) and would have easily debuted top 40. You'd think BMG would have learned from this and released this single closer to the promo on Graham Norton/The Voice.

SmileyKylie, I don't think it's right to say that the solo version is being treated as "album track only" when she's announced it across social media as "the second single", with no mention of Gente De Zona as of yet. I think the solo version can therefore be regarded as a single version in its own right.

 

Also it's kind of presumptuous at this point to consider the Gente de Zona version as "the main seller" lol... who knows how the single will do. Gente de Zona's inclusion does not guarantee her anything. Ni Tú Ni Yo wasn't a particularly big hit for Jennifer Lopez.

 

Unless by some kind of miracle the song has really good playlist exposure on Spotify, then we're likely to see a repeat of Dancing's chart trajectory with Stop Me From Falling. Misses the Top 40 on the strength of fan purchases, then also misses the Top 40 when she promotes it some weeks later. Like Joe says, the release & promotion should really be concentrated at the same time if BMG wants to get her a Top 40 hit.

Do we know yet whether there will be a video for both the solo version and the remix version? I know we've seen Gente de Zona on the set, but given that the label are pushing a solo version first, perhaps there will be a Kylie only video too?

Also re: those mini concerts - sure, it'll likely gain her some articles that raises a bit more awareness of her forthcoming album. The discussion point raised was promotion specifically for the single though, i.e. TV slots.

Joe - it is having its first spin.... She didn't say released...... Look at the cover art..... No mention of Gente De Zona.......

 

Unless she has done two videos then the song they will push in a week or two will be the Gente De Zona one as tshe has filmed video in Havana which will prbslby be being edited right now......

 

I think they will do fine. She will be busy with her concerts next week and I agree she will be going for both songs to be available at getting double exposure and streams. I honestly think they will do better with Streaming with this song and it will be top 40.

It's not 2012. The song will be out tomorrow too.

 

The delusion.

 

I mean, I don't expect huge things from Kylie commercially in 2018, but her team could certainly have planned things a lot better, and pulled in a bit more success for her.

Well maybe so, maybe not! Who knows. She has more exposure right now than she did when Dancing was released. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

 

She will have success.......

 

The album will probably go to number 1 or definitely top 3.

 

You don't know what she has planned.

I know for a fact the single is out tomorrow.

Well good! Can't wait! Celebrate it!

Concerts ARE promo for the album. Hence she is doing some promo tomorrow as will be busy next week. You seriously think no media will be at these concerts? She is promoting her album! That's the very idea of these 5 concerts

We were talking about promo of the new single, not the album...

What I mean is.... she probably hasn't got a lot of time around all the concerts etc so will be doing bit of promo at various times.

This thread is giving me a headache and making me blinder than I already am.....

She's listed on New music Friday, so either getting released at Midnight or some point after it's radio premiere.

I seem to recall Dancing being released at midnight then having a premiere on Radio 2 later in the morning so I guess it'll be the same deal again.

 

I was expecting a pre-album release for single #2 but I didn't realise it would be this soon. Remains to be seen whether it's a good call to move onto single #2 or give Dancing more of a chance, but I'm looking forward to this one regardless! Quite like the single artwork.

It's not out on Aus itunes but the latest remixes are, so might be a post-premiere release.

Dancing was played on Thursday morning on Radio 2 no? then released on the Friday at midnight.

 

It would be good to see it released at midnight if it is being released tomorrow then it should already be in the top 100 by time the radio premiere.

 

I don't mind waiting another week for its release though either.

Did you not read the posts above you? :/

Yes and? the post was wrong it wasn't released at Midnight and premiered on radio 2 in morning. it was premiered on a Thursday and released later.

You are hammering on yet again without getting your facts right. The song is not going to be out at midnight because it isn't out in countries ahead of us, wheras all the other new releases ARE. The song is on the release schedule for tomorrow so it is most likely getting released after ti premieres.

Yet you overlook all that and go on and on with your inane ramblings as always.

No don't. you read my posts. I actually said that it was a 'first spin' and may not even get released tomorrow.

 

I didn't think it would be released until next week
