June 21, 20214 yr Author Absolutely bloody gorgeous and she just so casually nails it, love the vibe, love the setting! STILL WANT A MUSIC VIDEO!! Can't wait to see what else she has in store, I won't even lie I've been bored waiting. The hype is slightly renewed.
June 22, 20214 yr so happy she seems to be interested in this album still... the live performance has redefined the song as her best single for me..
June 22, 20214 yr @1407303223669575699 Radio smash. Hopefully it’ll keep rising now it’s getting promo!
June 22, 20214 yr It's still not in the top 200 on Spotify in the US but it is registering a large rise on Apple Music (#191, up 213 places on 24 hours ago) so there is some sign of streaming picking back up for it. Not even in the top 1500 on UK Apple Music unless that's just Kworb being jank though oops It's cool to see its Hot 100 peak improving I guess but it is rather :') that it's reached a higher position just from pop radio pushing it with fairly minimal signs of the public interest in the song being renewed when it actually had genuine streaming traction during its original chart run.
July 6, 20213 yr Author @1409706522855100421 Next stop... music video (maybe) I keep praying but the Gods clearly hate me. :lol: I don't really see it happening now. :(
September 3, 20213 yr Author If only we got a real video... but I mean, ATLEAST! @1433804474909405189
November 26, 20213 yr This is sampled in dutchavelli's 'Never Forget You' which has debuted at #99 in this week's UK Singles Chart. uXEEST1M9hA
November 26, 20213 yr Author Oh wow that works amazingly, I didn't know what to expect. Unusual for a song to be sampled so early but I'm not mad at all.
November 26, 20213 yr This is a weird way to find out that Dutchavelli is apparently still able to get top 100 hits :lol: Ariana being sampled on hip-hop/drill songs has actually been surprisingly common, this is at least the third time I'm aware of - Lil Uzi Vert's 'Celebration Station' (US #34 hit) sampled 'raindrops (an angel cried)' and Pop Smoke & Lil Tjay's 'Mannequin' sampled '7 rings'.
November 28, 20213 yr Oh wow that totally passed me by so thanks for posting! The pitch of the interpolation reminds me of those slowed down TikTok edits you get. I wonder if there's any chance of the PinkPantheress - 'Just for me' / Central Cee - 'Obsessed With You' situation repeating, whereby a fresh song gets picked up for a sample and then does better than the original, at least in the U.K. anyway. Shall have to keep an eye on it :P
January 18, 20223 yr @1483532587620614147 So this had a music video in the works that was scrapped in the end, noooo 😭 @1483533202404917260 This is a tease though… surely way too late now?
May 19, 20232 yr The scrapped music video of this has been leaked. It's apparently pretty easy to find but I won't link to it. Instead he's a very detailed twitter thread about it :lol: @1659433258696712197
May 19, 20232 yr Author You can't help but scratch your head about this whole scenario. The song was already doing somewhat well, the video was produced and is cute, there was no follow up era in direct sight or even in the planning... why not just drop it, it's promo that's already been paid for.
May 20, 20232 yr Oh wow!! Apparently there is a Discord server full of Ariana fans who keep paying thousands of dollars to unlock leaked material :lol: what a shame the video was never used.
