This is a smash hit. I want to see this on the charts soon. I don't think they are going to push this to radio, but if they do, I'm sure it would do fairly well. Pop radio needs to play more of Lana. Her songs are pure gold.

Billboard's site says it enters the Hot 100 in the Top 20! I don't get the lack of airplay. AAA radio should be ALL OVER this and it's not even showing up on the list at all yet.

Awesome for the top 20 debut in the Hot 100, but the fact that it failed to debut on any airplay chart is annoying. Radio needs to fucking get with the program with her. I don't even care if it's on AAA, some format needs to make her a staple.

Why is the song gone off the Top 200 iTunes chart? Did it take that quick of a nosedive all of a sudden?

To be honest, I do not see the difference between the 'original' and new Dan a remix

To be honest, I do not see the difference between the 'original' and new Dan a remix Louder bass, different compression. Sounds "sharper", but to the point that it actually takes away from the original. It's just a radio mix really. What irks me is why bother to do a remix at all if that's all they were going to do with it? Is the label not confident she'd sell without a remix?

In need of a hearing aid? J/k I HATE the chorus on the new mix. Her vocals are dire and dry like she's in desperate need of a drink. I hope it FLOPS horribly now to teach Interscope a lesson.

Well, Interscope once again refuses to send her song for adds or promote her to radio. So it is flopping right now.
And this new version is receiving very negative response online and it's dropping on itunes. (hope it flops horribly)
I seriously CAN NOT STAND IT. MY GOD. I can't express my hate for it. She sounds too sharp like someone said and the chorus is JUST AWFUL.
This new version is giving me Mariah Carey "Triumphant" teas (the shock when the lambs heard her filtered airy weak vocals)
If it's on the album i'm not buying UV period.

My guess only

My guess only I don't care about the "success" of the song. Please. I'm furious at them ruining the song. I remember Ride had a horrible mix quality up on iTunes but it was replaced with a GREAT version after many complaints. The reverse is happening to "West Coast".

To be fair the vocals got a few complaints when it first came out, that it was hard to hear properly.

To be fair the vocals got a few complaints when it first came out, that it was hard to hear properly. I don't know. It's perfect for me. Her voice sounds good. I didn't understand chorus when I first heard it as well (the verses were crystal clear for me) but that only because it was sung in two different languages. After reading the lyrics the song is clear as day.

I just don't know what label expected by pulling the song... I guess they expected that all people who bought original will now buy the remix and make another 120000 cpies but I see it is not happening and the song is nowhere on itunes charts Or I am wrong?!

By the way, the pre orders in the U.K were all GONE due to the song removal.
Mess.
You have to buy it again. The first wave of hype of pre orders pushed the song in the top 40 now the new mix can't even crack the top 200 lmao.
Very very bad management.
They could have easily add an additional version instead of removing it. They killed the exposure and momentum of the song completely pretty much everywhere.

Lana was never going to have some massive pop hit without a situation like Summer Time sadness, I'm not sure why people thought she would. Big sales for the single were only ever going to be in the first week or so anyway. By the time the song was removed from US iTunes it had already fallen to the 70s

This hasn't been sent to radio yet (if it's going to be at all), and it's not like she has a strong track record with radio. The lack of airplay and decline on iTunes is to be expected.

Lana is not going to stay real high on the chart with zero airplay obviously. She has had great sales considering and you would think radio would get a clue and come to the understanding that she does have a audience.

She has an audience, but it's not necessarily the audience of Top 40 radio. I don't think anybody can seriously contend that her sound is radio friendly except on alternative or Triple A, at least with the singles that have been serviced so far.
