JohnWayne23 5,227 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I just remembered Meghan Trainor had that song "I'm A Lady" (for the new Surfs movie) come out at the end of February, and I went to look up how it charted its first week and it literally didn't chart ANYWHERE. She released the video on Friday and in 5 days the video has 4.7 million views worldwide. Its just fascinating to me how interest in a pop star can decline so fast. I know its happened for decades, but, while I'm not a fan of hers, I didn't expect this to happen to her and so quickly. This will most likely be her 2nd single in a row not to chart ("Better" was released last year and failed to chart). If you wanna give the girl some views, here's the music video: Success wise, she's literally the Ciara of this decade. They both charted from the years ending in 4 to 6 well (cairn 2004-2006, meghan 2014-2016), and then flopped. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaga Monster 13,001 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 It is just a song for a movie with no radio deal/promo/airplay. Her lead single will do fine, don't worry. GGD Presidential Elections Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her lead single will do fine, don't worry. it actually went to radio when it was released. And the song for a movie isn't really a fair argument, "Can't Stop the Feeling" was one of the biggest songs of 2016 and was for the animated film Trolls and P!nk's "Just Like Fire" for Alice Through the Looking glass went Top 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because soundtrack songs don't usually get radio deals except a few exceptions. They probably saved the money for the lead single or the movie company didnt want to pay for a radio deal because it is risky.
