When a video gets RAVE reviews and everyone talking.....people are interested in seeing it...fans and non-fans......ok it does nt gaurantee airplay but theres a HUGE chance it could do......

everyone these days makes crappy videos

as long as you have one, then your fine

quality of the video has nothing to do with chart success

bjork makes some of the best videos ever, but do you see her charting high in the states, or atleast, get airplay?

have you seen gnarls barkley's new vid, "who's gonna save my soul?"

a FANTASTIC video

but thats not gonna help it get radio airplay

heck, to be honest, it will get very little

answer : not in 2008

a great or bad video doesn't matter anymore.

YES - people do watch videos on youtube but it doesn't have an impact anyways because I just don't think people in general care about videos anymore the way they did.

And obviously a great video doesn't do anything to airplay since most songs with much airplay got lame videos, while some of the artists with good videos struggle to get some airplay at all.

VIDEOS DO NOT MATTER ANYMORE!

What a damn roller coaster with this song

How is this a rollercoaster?

It's been doing consistently terrible for weeks now.

Its airplay is about 1/20th of what 4 Minutes reached. This song makes Sorry look like a US megahit.

4 Minutes' airplay on its FIRST DAY at radio was higher than any full week of radio has been for GI2M.

At this point you can pretty much count on all of Madonna's singles being ignored unless they are a lead track from a new album. It's been 8 years since she's managed to have even 2 tracks from one album gain any traction.

It's somewhat ironic, but Madonna has her most mainstream success when she releases songs that push the boundaries of mainstream rather than trying to fit in with the crowd.

That's right. It's always been like that for her.

It is in my opinion that in 2008 a grand or even decent video won't make a hit song like the old days. If anything it's the other way around....if radio is playing your song it will get played like 2 times on MTV per week (which is HUGE numbers for them) and since more people are hearing it on the radio more people are likely to search for it on youtube to watch it.

In the case of GI2M, nobody has heard the song since radio won't give it a shot so therefore MTV certainly won't play it so therefore since people barely know of it's existance, the youtube hits probably aren't going to be as high.

Videos certainly are not as important as they used to be.

Listen, honestly speaking, people are either going to take a liking to her songs or not. Word of mouth, combined with airplay, combined with "artist excitement" = success. Take Rihanna and UMBRELLA for example. Look what happened with that song. Not the BEST song in the world, but, a good hook, a lot of excitement surrounding her and then followed by a semi-cool ok-video and then a boat-load of re-makes. Either the lightning strikes or it doesn't, no special magic formula really.

but nowadays, do we still have a new sound to hear that MADONNA can make popular? it's like all has been done already... and no rock please... 8 years of playing the guitar in concerts and she's still being made fun of for doing so...

Objectively, Umbrella is one of the greatest songs in pop music history. The production, melody, lyrical content and the arc of the song are perfect, the "ella ella" frame is borderline genius. It was more than a song; a marker in pop-cultural history. The video could have been a crock of shite and it would have still sold eight million copies.

What is going on?

We all thought the song has peaked but now it gets a new peak in spins! LOL

Hopefully, it will rise further.

Not everyone thought it had peaked; people just like to ride the negative wave.

Sure, this might be just a blip, but it's still nice to see the song pick up spins.

Nice to see new peaks, but it is still nothing. At this point I hope she starts with another single right now, before HC goes out of the Album chart. GI2M won't suffer for it: losing all its airplay would't be so different from now...

People discovering Mediabase is the worst thing that has ever happened to this forum. Plus or minus a few dozen spins is pretty meaningless.
