Investing on radio will boost its performance on every platform + give it points on the hot100 because Shallow has been a stable SMASH hit all around Europe that redefined Gaga's image and discography And it's a bummer to see such a great song *only* flying under the radar in the US while it could do so much better. At this point your question sounds like : why should we care about charts? I mean, if this was a lead single that needed promotion, it’d demand that from interscope, but truly there’s no added value on doing so 🤷🏽♂️ Will radio increase its streams? Nope its sales? Not more than the performance will do organically. How did Million Reasons benefit from the obvious radio payola? It didn’t. There’a a timing for this things and to me, it’s already passed.

As Shallow hasn't been HUGE in the US, there's still tons of people that have yet to experience the song.

Exactly, there’s no way they will recover the investment. The song is already doing great, she’s going viral without making an effort. she’s selling well and her streaming is good. Besides, the biggest exposure already came from the movie, it will not benefit anymore and a re-peak on billboard is not worthy of any extra investment. I work at one of the majors and trust me, this organic and great behavior is every record label’s dream lol. I’d rather have them saving this money you’re asking for “payola” for the next single’s promotion, for paying an amazing music video, the studio sessions, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I agree that the movie and TTH are way more important. I just was saying that radio would 1) help with the hot100 as radio is counted heavily 2) keep the song fresh and afloat on streamings platforms (Shallow is top 15 almost everywhere in the world on Spotify and not even top50 in the US) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not as effective as it was before, just take a look at how Delicate, for instance. It topped the pop radio chart in July, yet the track was not even in the 100s in the Spotify US chart. Hell, just look at nothing breaks like a heart, electricity, ruin my life, etc. They are doing good on radio yet they are failing on the platforms. A repeak (which is way too ambitious given the amount of extra audience that the song would need) caused by radio wouldn’t increase its sales nor streaming, its just a waste of resources for the label. They will not recover it. Let them use it (hopefully) on Gaga’s next project. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Rosalia 9,906 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I’d be extremely happy with a repeak, don’t get me wrong. It’s just that I don’t see how would Interscope/Universal benefit from this. Specifically the Digital Business area that, with radio or not, will get a massive boost thanks to the Oscars Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzcutSeason 3,307 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Radio has stated already they aren't a fan of Shallow's sound, and callouts aren't good, no? The song is doing well how it is and proves success, in terms of putting more money into a campaign for it... Not likely, or necessary. Plus, this is only the beginning of the year, and Gaga likely has her own era coming at the end of this year, beginning of next year. No point in pushing singles to radio they openly aren't here for.

La Rosalia 9,906 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I’d rather have them use the money for a badass music video and huge ass in-stream TrueView campaign on YouTube for the next single’s debut week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
