A few notes: Apparently it was only sent to 20 Pop stations early. It will be sent to Pop, Urban, and Rhythmic on Monday. It does not impact until mid-late June.

biased but whatever if this made for summer radio hot track isnt at the very least a medium sized hit (which I dont foresee) there is very little she can do to get one. IMO both this and #beautiful should be hit songs. Too many other factors at play so hoping for a surprise!

SOTY to be honest. Great choice. I was getting so damn thirsty I had to stay off here last night cause mimi be driving me nuts like she builds you up to that climatic moment like eight times, but refuses to let you come. Then I think to myself "hm, let's go check pulse maybe team Mariah got their shit straight and sent this JAM out. After those eight anti climatic moments I click on pop and BAM Mariah done got on top of me and set me freeeeeeeee after 9 times. The hairs on my arms are still standing up. There is a god after all.

YES YES YES. Perfect choice.
I'm really hoping for a hit for this one but I'm afraid radio won't play it, no matter how good this is, just because it's Mariah Carey.

Would like to see this, at least, crack top 20 at top 40 radio. If it doesn't, it's just other factors at play.

This is undoubtedly the ONLY song on the album that can be (and will be) serviced to that many formats. I'm not expecting a miracle, but this should be highest airplay for this era (excluding #B, of course).

Okay, so that means that Thirsty isn't a single on any format then?

I'm not expecting a miracle, but this should be highest airplay for this era (excluding #B, of course). Yep. That's universally been the consensus for several weeks. That's one of the hurdles here..all that time that went by w/out... anything for no logical reason. They should've been doing what they're doing now at least a month ago or promptly after the Today performance. If so, well north of 50% sure she'd have the #1 album next week (and more importantly, overall positive momentum for future singles). However radio reacted or reacts to this is part of it- was all about getting the song 'out there' (You Tube, Vevo, iTunes single release etc..) Based on the positive feedback/reaction after the Today show, that little bit of extra buzz def. would've given her at least 10-20k more sales.

I'm gonna need a VEVO upload, a festive lyrics video perhaps.
Although the album is on Spotify, isn't it?

I love this song but, I kind of feel like "Thristy" has more of a chance at getting airplay at different formats since they seem to have waited so long to send this out. Hopefully I'm wrong.
