Americano 31,061 Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 Shes touring nonstop until August though and I wonder if radio will keep playing it without promo that long Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klou 2,414 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 .My predictions: - Sales: 1-2 million - Radio: 90-100 million AI - Hot 100: Peak position of 7/8 Basically it's this years Where Have You Been.I thought you said peak position of #78 at first and I agreed :P I know a lot of you like the song, but with its airplay it should already be in the top 100 for it to be a hit.

nick4bty 2,758 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Here's To Seeing Avril's song tumble down the iTunes chart at 100 mph after that discount is lifted. Poor Avril. Radio is already pulling the song at that speed. Meanwhile, The Voice performance did help Treasure. Pushed it right into the Top 10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be, but if I remember correctly, this sort of situation happens almost regularly for Rihanna. Her songs just take a while to pick up, but once they do, they're basically guaranteed hits. Digital sales have never been her strong point - that belongs to her airplay values. And that's what's selling Right Now. Without it's airplay, it would be nowhere near it's current iTunes position. It wouldn't be a shock if it never takes off like what I predicted, but I also wouldn't be surprised if it did, because I'm fairly sure this has happened before with her.

Americano 31,061 Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 its like #300 tho lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Art 1,773 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 its like #300 tho lol For the exact same reason all the other songs on iTunes have been pushed down in position: The Voice performances. Thank heavens the show is over for the season. I was so sick of the weekly clutter. Not only does it push songs down, but it kills momentum. For example, I remember Crazy Kids (feat. Jucy J.) getting great updates for a while, only for it's momentum to be completely killed by The Voice clutter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Americano 31,061 Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) It had a banner that was removed (Crazy Kids) Well, idc to argue this because I like Rihanna. Im just saying that RN looks like it might flop. She hasnt even done a video yet and Unapologetic is falling off album charts worldwide, so idk if its even worth pushing out more and more singles Edited June 19, 2013 by Americano Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't sound like Right Now will have a video anytime soon, if at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris777 112 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 She should release another single after RN. Maybe RN video might be something like Cheers music video. After all she's touring and her dates are really close one to another this month Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
