_Lam 597 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Good for Bruno! And as thoroughly blah and mediocre OMN is, I think it's kind of funny how it's been cockblocking GS. Fine with me. That **** novelty song doesn't need to be legitimized in any way other than the ones it already has. It's viral video is fine. Now it can go away. Exactly how I feel about this song.

Tommymonster44 0 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I really don't think she'll hit one million. I know it looks like she could but I just have a feeling she won't. She very well good it's just my intuition telling me this. It will definitely debut over 1 million. Taylor is a sales monster right now. Her first week sales will undoubtedly slay, I'm just not sure about longevity. I see a Born This Way chart run for Red. All of the fans will download it the first week and then it will just drop off. Hopefully I'm wrong, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 680 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Other countries listen to English songs. It would nice if American radio wasn't too damn afraid or intolerant to play non-English lyrics. That's all that's stopping PSY .. cause you know if it had some **** lyrics by LMFAO or BEP it would get the airplay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 680 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 It will definitely debut over 1 million. Taylor is a sales monster right now. It will depend on marketing and what sort of deals she has with Amazon and Target. Last time Amazon discounted her album to 3.99. Her "new" pop fans who cherry pick a single or two off itunes won't necessarily be buying the album. See Nicki Minaj. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor actually has smart people marketing her album Likely she will do better than Nicki at not alienating her core fans. But just because a pop fan likes WANEGBT and last week's promo single doesn't mean they are buying a whole country album. Lot of those types won't even buy a whole pop album from Katy P.

Her best selling singles/promo singles off Red have been IKUWT and WANEGBT. Both pop singles. Other singles like Red, Begin Again, and State of Grace fell much quicker. Pop fans won't buy Taylor's full album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausofmike 127 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Red held pretty stable. State of Mind is the fastest to fall but that's because it was a week before the album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And WANEGBT is the first single so i expect it to stick. The only other really successful promo single was IKUWT. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the tracks released for Red so far have been major successes. Obviously, when you compare a mega-promo success like IKUWT to more country oriented tracks such as Begin Again, it looks like the less-pop songs didn't do so well. They did, though. Any promo single that flies straight to number one and sticks for even a day or two is a major success, in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have bought all of them besides SOG. My point is that the pop tracks have lasted much longer. And pop fans are less likely to buy a full country. Which will effect her sales in some way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which will effect her sales in some way Oh sorry. In that case I totally agree with you. I think that nicki minij is the example of what Taylor could become if she starts relying on pop fans as her main platform. Right now, though, she has a solid country fan base. The only other song from RED I can see doing somewhat well is "22" the rest are just fillers Really? I thought that there were only maybe one or two fillers in the entire album. She really impressed me. It's just that most of those songs are more along the lines of a classic Taylor country ballad. Most of the songs aren't single material. I don't think that they are fillers though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
