neutrocks Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Regarding the charts... I simply look at the sales and compare it to the other huge acts selling successfully. If an artist can manage to be within the top 40 biggest sellers (which Madonna usually is), it's a hit. Anything more than that... GREAT!!! We all know she's going to sell at least a couple hundred thousand copies of this song. That alone tells me how successful a song is compared to if radio was playing it or not.

GimmeSomeMo Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 They haven't learned the chart-game yet releasing the song prior any airplay what so ever - low charting oh well As someone else said, Warner doesnt give a shit about chart placements. They want the CASH. And as long as the song is out there and people are downloading it illegally, they were not going to hold it back and lose $$$. It's not that complicated really. Oh and charts are archaic and obsolete. I wish people who care about the charts would go be Mimi fans or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xoxoboi24 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I don't know why people are freaking out. If the song charts early, it's actually great because now it will rise instead of possibly peaking the first week. i think it was a very good choice.

Mimi is extreme... but I guess it could be fun if Madonna succeeds with her singles aswell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etips Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I agree that they are releasing it because of the leak (although I don't believe that someone in Madonna/WB's camp wasn't behind it leaking.) I do predict premature burnout, and a poor chart showing, though. Because it's new, Madonna fans are going to quickly flock to it in bulk for the first few weeks -- while airplay will be minimal, as radio hasn't even been properly issued it yet. The outcome is going to be very disjointed. I'm sure WB does care more about the profit than the chart position, but why not have both if you can? If they learned to time things right, putting it on sale when airplay was peaking, then they could stand to make *more* of a profit. It's a given that hardcore Madonna fans are going to be there, and will buy as soon as it becomes available to them anyway. You court casual/non fans - through promotion and airplay. They're the one's who push songs over the top and generate the most profit. Oh well. Maybe they're planning to be more stretegic with "Revolver."

Pabl0114 Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 you can hear the Benni Benassi remix here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/petetong/ @ 1:37:00 It's the one we heard before from the video shoot. This one got better sound tho. I like this better than the album version This sounds more like an album version and the album version sounds like a remix.

jonluvsmaddy Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 They released it early because it leaked - everyone wanted the song and no one complained about getting it yesterday, so don't complain about them releasing it for sale early. It is not their fault the song leaked, but it is their responsibility to try and get as many people to buy the song instead of downloading it for free which only hurts the chart position.
