Great song as it is. Please Madonna no, EDM remixes. I beg you. What then, some hip hop remixes featuring Igloo? Madonna needs dance/EDM mixes, especially if she wants any airplay from dance stations

So far I count more than 20 stations spinning "Ghosttown" this morning (with the number growing regularly) - 13 AC, 7 Hot AC, and 3 pop. As of right now, I'd conclude that the "initiative" is for AC/Hot AC only, which would mean pop stations in NYC, Boston, and Miami are spinning voluntarily.

Yes, popbox- not everyone. ;) I for one always liked it, but never had any aspirations for its chart success. "Everyone" was me making a hasty generalization of course, but my point was that many people thought it was her best chance for a hit in a long time. Opposed to now where many people are claiming it was always DOA. So clearly hindsight is 20/20 is the lesson. At the same time, some of us believed in the song when it was released in December, but then got super frustrated with the inexplicable strategy of letting it flow for over a month with no adds or push at all. That strategy killed any chances for some. I'm now a bit surprised that LFL became the single though. It's the only dance song in RH, so maybe she could've pushed another song as first promoted single and let LFLas an advance song ala Masterpiece. Anyway. I love Gt so I hope it gets an excellent video treatment and get some radio love. Even some melodic remix could help, but I'm more thinking of ads and TV shows.

1 Add at Hot ACKPEK Albuquerque 2 Adds at ACWLTW New York City WASH Washington DC Oh, WLTW is a good one. Should help, as some will follow. If I recall correctly, they added "Jump" right before the Holidays, but of course, when the Holidays were over, they didn't play it anymore.

so it seems that they will give it a (somehow) big push on AC/HAC stations hoping for pop as well to have a multi-format smash for MADGE :'(

Cool that the label saved their trump card for AC instead of pushing L4L. Maybe they do know what they're doing. ..

Ellen and iHeart awards show will be the true launching pad for Ghosttown, her best ballad since Frozen and Take a Bow... If that that doesn't do it... I can't see just the video doing it.

Update: @10:44 am EST America Z100 played 'Ghosttown' Another Update: My Home Boston KISS108 played 'Ghosttown' a minute ago it made the Top5 @ Noon Wow, Did Kiss 108 even play "Live For Love"? Have they only played "Ghosttown" in the early afternoon/late morning when I feel like at times they test songs out. The only reason why I say that is because I used to hear Whitney's "Million Dollar Bill and Keri Hilson's Pretty Girl Rock" around this time of day but never heard it any other times. That and I feel like the countdown doesn't have anything to do w/requests in Boston but maybe nationally???

IHeartRadio gets terrible ratings figures, can't see that being much of a push.

Great performance of Ghost town on the Jonathan Ross show , plus LVL minus the falling off the stage . The whole interview was light hearted at she was very much at ease . Went on line for tickets on Monday , they are £400 each ! Around 600 US $ . I thought they were £400 for two ,then realised the total was over £800 , delivery fees etc . Sorry but that is just TOO much .

Did they play "Living For Love'? yes,they did right up until that following Saturday when everyone abandon it. They are currently spinning 'Ghosttown' 1x a day usually around 11:25 am But Today,like I stated it made the countdown,which I believe is a good sign. Even though call in song requests are bogus,there is talk that it is also true for the so called 7 @ 7,top5 @ Noon shows that many stations have. But I am sure they still know which songs are highly requested. This may..and stress may be a good sign for 'Ghosttown'

Right you are. personally I don't care for EDM music. I know that won't make a diiference in the world when it comes to selling the song, but I just wouldn't want it to be the version radio picks up, because that would be like alternating the vision and style Madonna intended for the track to have. The latest example I think of was "The Hanging Tree" The pop remix wasn't exactly EDM, but you have to admit that Pop remix sorta stripped the original song of its essence. That's really my point here. "Ghost Town" (original album vers) has an essence I wouldn't like to see get lost or be overtaken by an EDM remix.

I was just going to post that. I'm happy it's getting play considering I like it and she's a veteran artist. I hope it can stick around some and it will most likely make their playlist countdowns that they play on Sundays. (at least they used to). It sounds great on the radio. "Style" by Taylor Swift was played after it and it fit right in.
