America is UBER shallow and UBER ghetto.

Unless she does something either really ghetto or something uber shallow, or something totally remarkable and amazing.

:lmao::thumbsup: great points!

Don't believe me or think I'm being harsh? Read the polls, it's all there across the board. Lots of negativity and disrespect towards Madonna. Even radio stations, the vj's whatever, this one at z100 NY. said something along the lines of "And that was 4 minutes,...featuring Justin..........and Madonna(said in a fast and low voice way)," and then added, "You know,...it's funny how some artists use other current artists to conjure up a hit,"

I'm not kidding!

I dont think its as bad as you are making it out to be. I heard 4 Minutes introduced on the radio 100s of times it seems and every DJ I heard only had glowing things to say about Madonna. I just think GI2M was not the right single at least in America, and I also think that the flop that was American Life still haunts her and NO I dont mean in terms of a boycott. I just think that American Life was the moment for many where Madonna jumped the shark and fell flat on her face and of course its going to be harder to pull herself back up out of that hole when she is in her 40s and the target audience for radio is tween girls. It would be interesting to see if Madonna's follow up to Music was a smash hit, if she would find radio play this hard to come by. I just think that she was in her 40s when American Life happened and that was a moment when many in the radio business probably said I guess the reign of Madonna going top 40 all the time is over, and they moved on. Too bad they moved on to utter CRAP, but they moved on....

Looks like Madonna isn't abandoning this song after all. ^_^ PROMO!

There's still a chance! :)

OMG!

^ those r good points. While I feel AL was a really hard pinch for her career, by 2003 or so, the worst of the worst urban, rap, hip hop/slop songs were totally dominating, became totally mainstream, versus just 3-4 yrs before when there was still a tad of diversity on the charts and radio. I feel even if AL wasn't "as bad" as it was to radio and many, many people, that wouldnt mattered. "Any" late 40s year old white woman is gonna have a brutal time getting any love from radio and mainstream America lol. Even Madonna. W/ the way things are today, Cher even wouldnt have scored the hit she had with Believe. No way. Shows you how much things changed for the worse.

M needs to release Miles Away - at least the adult radio might play it. She will ony score a big hit with the 1st single of a album - the rest will be top 10 but on the Bubbling Under Charts

Miles Away will go absolutely nowhere.

I agree with skin69 that I'm making it out to be alot worse than it really is, but I live in NJ as well, hunterdon county and sometimes bergen, I hear what goes on, word of mouth, go to NYC, and being that you're in OC, lol ocean county nj, you're pretty much in the same boat so you can judge.

Around that time is really when I guess Madonna started to REALLY die out on radio. Music was a radio success by all means, the album. After American Life, the single, bye bye. Unfortunately.

Things HAVE changed for the worse, yes Cher releasing Believe today would have flopped, and at the VMA's I truly do believe that Madonna will be performing Beat Goes On.

Give it 2 me is over guys. It is. Hate to say it but it's done.

We live in a shallow country, America. People are into IDOL, omg omg'ing 10 miles a minute, ....I mean,...songs like give it 2 me won't stand a chance. WHen I first heard it, I honestly KNEW it wouldn't work at radio at all. I cringed when I heard that it would be the 2nd single.

From Hard Candy, Candy shop, heartbeat, beat goes on...devil.....would all work as singles. miles away is too boring/slow.

Look, the American audience is hyper, manic, end-times ready, and barbaric. They like hearing songs like 4 minutes because it's intense, it's about something big, saving the world, fits in with the rat-race, hyper egotistic Americans, who also like Justin and ghetto music, and so it did well. Madonna is not the central reason this song succeeded. She changed her image and music style enough so that it would succeed in American radio.

Then when Madonna went back to simply being Madonna in Give it 2 me,....people didn't request it, it flopped, and radio didn't give it a chance, b/c it just doesn't relate or fit well with the general audience of America.

Devil wouldn't recognize you would work, miles away wouldn't. Beat goes on would work, kanye is on it.

candy shop might because of the way it sounds.

It's just reality.

I'm totally overgeneralizing but this is the GENERAL jist of what flies here.

I know it sounds harsh but people in America don't appreciate royalty, lasting celebrity, fame, etc as much as they do FAD and what's in NOW.

Songs like I Kissed a Girl, by Katy Perry hot, in the moment, can relate to dumb american teens,...that stuff flies, and then everyone will request it and go on tour to see it.

Madonna...not as much. Unless she does something stupid and silly and pop culture friendly.

Sad but it's how it is.

We're in like AMerica y'all. LIke for sureeeee.

THat's just LIkE totally It Okie?

:sigh: sad but true.

I bet you have a really nice ass but it doesn't hurt to try and just request it. It entered the top 50 on mediabase, and it has a real slow climb. Maybe by some miracle it will increase.

Honestly you guys...I refuse to put any effort into promoting GI2M. The song is ok, the video sucks. Madonna has not put any effort whatsoever into promoting this album.

She did not put any effort into making the video. I knew this song would not do any good at US radio. Go on to her next release.

Just played for the first time before noon on cincinnati's station q102, and we always are the last ones to hear a madonna song. so hearing it on that station has me believe that this is growing slow but still.

Is that good or bad? lol. I have a feeling that this song is going to linger around 3-6 AI forever and ever adn ever, and still be a flop, but the flop that never died completely.

Sad but true.

I'm already moving on , but I guess there's a chance it might go up?
