BullaBarbie Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 "You'll See" indeed peaked at #10 on Hot 100 Airplay, which I always thought was a disappointment, considering how radio-friendly the track is and was promoted as the follow-up to a song that spent 9 weeks at #1 on Airplay. Thanks for the update HG! I'm surprised that there are weeks when "Die Another Day" gets no spins at all! She had 2 flops in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Danny86 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 That was exactly my point, with the video, Madonna & Warners seemed to make everyone forget that she scored 2 huge flops and they continued the bullfighter story wrapped in a typical diva ballad route...

HolidayGuy Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 Made them forget? Everyone but the hardcore fans, of course. Are No. 42 and No. 46 peaks "huge" flops, though? I guess coming off of a No. 1 hit- but, those two singles certainly weren't very commercial, so not like they would have been big hits (I know we had the discussion before, about WB investing lots of $ into the BS video- but surely they knew it wouldn't be a big hit, unless their hearing was off).

Guest Danny86 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Well, they were her first singles that missed the Top 40 and "Bedtime Story" spent only 1 week on Hot 100 Airplay which is indeed a huge flop if you compare it to "Take A Bow. Of course they didn't predict that one and "Human Nature" to be as big as "Secret" or "Take A Bow", but I think we can agree that they didn't expect Madonna to miss out the Top 40 at the very least, especially with the high budget video, as we noted in our previous discussion.

HolidayGuy Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 Yeah, but they both peaked in the 41-50 range, which is pretty close to cracking the top 40. I always personally thought the top 50 should be the yardstick for success measure, since that's half the chart. "Human Nature" was the more sizable hit over "Bedtime Story"- while it wasn't anywhere as commercially appeaking as TAB, it definitely was more commercial than BStory. It spent several weeks in the 46-50 range on the Hot 100, and spent 8 more weeks on the chart than BStory did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skin Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 So I am catching the top 4... #4 was Papa Dont Preach #3 Like A Prayer.... Waiting on 2 and 1. Having to sit through shit music to hear the top two. *barf* Edit #2 is Like A Virgin *fart* I would guess Vogue is probably #1. I wish I could find a list of the whole 25 somewhere. Edit again....#1 Material Girl!? Poop. In an alternate universe Ray of Light would be #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 If that were the case, HU would be ahead of lots of other tracks.

Same for ROL (which was nota BIG airplay hit when it was out, anyways- airplay peak was similar to HU, actually). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 That info has been posted, but sure. I list the estimated audience (in some cases, closer to BDS peaks), and Hot 100 Airplay peaks (when applicable). Remember that LP and MA never went for official radio play (not that that would have made that much of a difference). American Pie: 45 million (No. 23) Music: 83 million (No. 3) Don't Tell Me: 65 million (No. 10) What it Feels Like For a Girl: 33 million (No. 36) Die Another Day: 58 million (No. 15) American Life: 23 million (No. 61) Hollywood: 6 million Nothing Fails: 1 million Love Profusion: ? Hung Up: 26.8 million (No. 42) Sorry: 5.5 million Get Together: .75 Jump: 5 million 4 Minutes: 54.5 million (No. 11) Give it 2 Me: 2 million Miles Away: .9m?

Kurt420 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 It is a crime how little airplay HU got during it's run on the charts. And I'm always surprised at how low Like A Virgin ranks in recurring airplay being that it's one of her bona fide "classics". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
