When I heard this on the radio for the second time yesterday, the DJ announced that this is the 50th single Taylor has released. Maybe that is the reason they released it? I guess they just released it for that occasion and didn't plan on it being big.

That's what I thought myself. Honestly, I feel like she just released this song just for the sake of releasing it.

She hasn't even released 50 singles lmao. Sounds like it was sarcasm from the DJ about how long this era has lasted.

Not gonna work this time. OOTW did worse than any Teenage Dream single and this one isn't looking great right now.

Maybe she really has reached the point of oversaturation... It's a thing we talk about a lot on here, but I don't know if I've ever seen that have such an obvious impact on airplay or sales.

What's wrong with the sales? They seem pretty great for a song that has only lackluster radio support. No promotion, no video, no streaming and off an album that has sold millions (the deluxe is at 2 million I believe).

Her last two singles were not really necessary. So she got two more top 20 songs at Pop...ok cool but neither will be remembered in the long term and it just added to her over-exposure over the last year and a half. Please put the 1989 era out of its misery and take a break.

Too late with that promo yet again, Taylor. I agree with those who say she needs to just take a break and end the era, and it looks like that's what she will be doing by the looks of that statement last night.

I'm honestly so pissed off there was no video, I'm fine with her taking a break. C-YA.

So she got two more top 20 songs at Pop...ok cool but neither will be remembered in the long term and it just added to her over-exposure over the last year and a half. Please put the 1989 era out of its misery and take a break. She was on a huge hot streak, the album wasn't THAT old, and Out Of The Woods was the critical darling. It made perfect sense to release it at the time. When it struggled, it was easy to blame it on the "it feels like an old song + 6 million people already own it" factors, ignoring the possibility that maybe there was just some overall Taylor fatigue. The lack of a meaningful spike in response to the Grammys performance proved OOTW just wasn't going to happen, but she HAD just won the big Grammy and was only an extra month-and-a-half into the 1989 life cycle, so substituting OOTW with New Romantics - a song that wouldn't have the "it's old" or "6 million people own it" excuses - also seemed logical. At *this* point, it's pretty fair to say that the market is just a bit tired of her and/or this album. But I don't think they made the wrong calls at the time. And the fact that both had monster add weeks + early airplay suggests radio wanted to give these songs a chance. The audience response just wasn't there.

The time has come for her to go enjoy a nice long break and plan for her 2017 return. They should release whatever music video they shot for this and then let her move on.

Even a live video would make me happy, but no video at all would make it pointless to even release this song.

It's not like she's hiding completely.

Well, i dont know if you know, but each time Joseph Khan has directed a video for Taylor, he started hinting with code-names. Bad Blood was #PancakeCommercial, Wildest Dreams was #ToothbrushCommercial, Out Of The Woods was #MyAbs, and recently he was talking about a #FreeWillyReboot (which would be New Romantics, i guess).
However, not that long ago, he sent a tweet about the whale dropping out of his #FreeWillyReboot, which could very well mean that the video was scrapped, sadly.

If the video is still in the works, it's too little too late.
