Bastille are pretty big in the UK although I think the singer has one of the most soulless flat voices. He even makes Chris Martin sound good. But yes, they are also potential competition.

stevo208 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Look, it's fathers day on 16th June. Springsteen and Bastille are firm DAD favourites. Her chances of a #1 album that week are fucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah sorry, I didn't mean to be negative. I just realised it's fathers day and figured these guys were actually big competition.

I want that number one Album as much as you and we may still get it. June is still a way off. What I want most is an album that stays in the top three for weeks on end and not number one, in the first week and then can not be found. So, it's complicated and I am just saying lets worry about it when we are nearer the bridge. For now I am trying to get Radio2 to play IRise and trying to get the youtube views up. Those views must be stuck because how it is not over a million is beyond me. Also I am one of the few who still has hope for Medellin but I don't know when next it will be promoted.

Now it’s been confirmed that Medellin was just a video serve as oppose to an actual single roll out i doubt she will promote it here in the UK now. I think the BB awards will be the height of the promo for the song. Crave is lined up to be properly serviced to radio and be the proper lead and that takes us to the Eurovision and the actual promo spots from M herself... ...I think Crave has a high chance of becoming the elusive hit she hasn’t had here in a decade. Its exciting times and I can’t wait for the performance and video of the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather facts, figures and honesty in a thread like this. The fact that they've chosen to release her album on Fathers Day weekend when wrinkly rockers are also releasing new albums is very pertinent to the discussion.

AlanLongoria Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Madonna for sure is doing promo that week, along with Eurovision, I don't think she is the weakest link, that title belongs to Bastille and the other guy. Bruce is the biggest threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billboard article said it will just be pushed in Latin markets which makes sense as that’s where the most streams have come from. The fact it hasn’t been properly served to radio...it doesn’t actually say it’s not a full single but from how the article is worded it sounds like Crave will receive a more full roll out as a single. (The article is being discussed in the Madame X album thread) Im guessing by that a proper radio push and radio switch on date for Crave something Medellin never got.

frzndrwnwrld Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I consider Medellin the first single but it could be seen as an introduction to the era and Crave is the "real" first single. Janet did that with "Got Till It's Gone." It was more of an intro than the first single. "Together Again" got the big push. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She still has three more songs to come. Two songs have been released. If people focused more on publicizing those songs and streaming and buying them maybe we wouldn't need to moan. Also, nobody is looking for dishonesty or alternative facts. Fact is the Album is not out. To assume because so called wrinkly rockers are releasing same day so we are fucked, is to be pessimistic to the extreme. Nearer the time everyone will be wiser as to what the likely outcome is. Right now it's just doom and gloom speculations which are actually not facts. Just opinions. And I am not policing anyones thoughts. I am simply saying chill on the doom and gloom for something that is still more than a month away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy the song, stream it, live in the moment and enjoy the roll out the Queen is giving us. This is like the first time in a long time it’s being done properly.

Bastille is her biggest (and only) threat in the UK. If Eurovision and the second single explode she will be able to overcome them. Bruce (and the Jonas Brothers on their second week) will be her threat in the USA. Bruce has not miss the number one spot in a long time, but his last album sold less than Rebel Heart on its first week so there is hope there too.
