huttont 4,894 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 My local pop station played it but only played Gaga’s verse, chorus, and the bridge/chorus. It was very odd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdaines 209 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Y'all are being too pessimistic. As has been pointed out multiple times, Shallow does NOT sound like current pop radio, it is a live ballad, etc. HOWEVER, it is currently the #1 fastest-growing song at ADULT POP radio on a daily basis. https://kworb.net/radio/ Additionally, it IS getting a substantial number of adds at pop radio (52)! http://hitsdailydouble.com/pop_mart That means it will likely debut at the bottom of the pop radio airplay chart soon. Is Shallow going to be a #1 pop radio hit? Probably not. Can it peak with 1 play for every 2-3 plays of the #1 song after growing for a couple of months? Yeah, that seems plausible. Can it peak in the top 3 at Adult Pop and Adult Contemporary? YES. Very plausible. Result: Plausible peak around #10-15 on overall radio. Not too shabby. STREAMING. Shallow is #11 on US Spotify! #5 globally, are you kidding me? It is #3 on the Today's Top Hits playlist! Its streaming numbers are INCREASING v. last week when it peaked at #5 on the Hot 100. Streaming is now the CORE of the music industry. Combined with increasing radio airplay and slowly falling sales, it is likely to STAY IN THE TOP TEN! It may well stay there or around there for quite a while! In other words, it is looking like a sustained, legitimate, long-term hit (comparable to "Applause", significantly stronger than "Million Reasons")! We are seeing a level of popularity, media support, and commercial performance that we haven't seen since some time during the BTW era, or maybe since just before Applause was released. Just soak it in and live through your Gaga's success as a bona fide movie star AND pop star. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdaines 209 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 PS: Shallow is no less pop radio friendly than Kesha's "Praying." Note that my projection is basically that "Shallow" ends up with a comparable amount of pop radio airplay as what "Praying" got. I think that is reasonable. It would be really interesting to see if it ever crosses over to country radio -- since it is fundamentally a country song... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re trying to tell me that halfway through the song and forever thereafter you don’t hear the gibberish that comes out of that (presumably) black girls mouth? Also the fact that the song is chopped to oblivion anything past the “Keke do you love me” part? please enlighten me to death Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
