That'd put him at 135k 2nd week if he does 500k this week. an ANALYSIS ladies Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlahForever1 671 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I think Little Chartsters should give up hopes of Shallow being on TTH; if you look at the songs on the playlist, the Shallow just doesn't fit in. Unfortunately, Spotify skews heavily in the favour of urban/ hip-hop and dance-pop music, and the Shallow is neither. I just don't see songs like the Shallow being put number on TTH unless there's a massive shift from urban oriented music to slower, more acoustic, rock, country etc music. Plus, considering this is a soundtrack album, the promotion for it will work differently from a traditional Gaga release. The biggest promotional tool for the album will be the film itself - millions of people (touch wood it's a massive hit) will see the movie and then hopefully go out to buy or stream the soundtrack. The promotion so far for the movie has been on point. It's obvious that WB has a lot of faith in the film being a critical and commercial darling, and is pulling out all the stops to ensure that ASIB smashes hard. Again, the film smashing and getting positive word of mouth will be the best promotion for the soundtrack and will help its longevity. I don't really consider the Shallow as a lead single in the same vein as PI, BR, Applause, JD, BTW. It's more of a promo single meant to: 1) continue building up hype for the film, 2) the music video essentially acts as another trailer for the film, 3) build up hype for the soundtrack. Considering that the Shallow is the emotional core of the film and the trailer, it makes sense to release it as the first promo single from the soundtrack. Releasing another song like I'll Never Love Again, which is kind of meant to be a surprise in the film, before the film officially opens would be weird. I imagine that Interscope, WB, and Gaga's team will be primarily focusing on promoting the movie itself, and then see what songs catch on with people, and then promote those songs/ send them to radio and streaming playlists. Sorry for the rant, I didn't mean for this to be such a long post and I know other people have probably already said this anyway :p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we know how the soundtrack is doing so far with pre-orders? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViviLittleM 3 Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 We do agree that like right now, Shallow is charting thanks to individual purchase? since pre-orders doesn't count in Shallow sales That means like 60-70k people will have purchased the song only and other people are pre-ordering the soundtrack those buying shallow are potential buyers for the soundtrack first week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
