Would have been interesting to see what this could have done as a lead single with lots of hype and promo. Could've potentially been a new 4 Minutes for her.

Make that Fallon performance at the Grammy's. Give it LFL's radio deal. I swear she has the absolute worst team out of every artist when it comes to proper management and no leaks and stuff. Bad decision after bad decision. You would think everything would be perfect like Taylor but it's so far from it.

Says a lot about the (dreadful) state of music when this managed to chart and LFL and Ghosttown didn't...

Bad decision after bad decision. You would think everything would be perfect like Taylor but it's so far from it. Your Both right. Ive been saying since I heard the 6 tracks in December B! IM Madonna needed to be 1st single. I hate bashing her management but this whole album rollout is probably the messiest rollout ive EVER seen. and From the Biggest Female Seller in the world... How does that happen? Living for love is SO BLAND and Boring should NEVER been a single. It killed all the momentum of this album... now B Im madonna has to pick up the slack... id ditch management after this debacle. This track Should have been as Big as 4 Minutes all the Hype was there back in Dec/Jan!

No matter what number single it would have been, BIM would have had trouble getting mass play, so it more than likely would not have done as well as 4M (which heavily featured Timberlake).
Billboard.com:
NEW MATERIAL: Another dance icon, Madonna, scores a re-entry on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs with "B**** I'm Madonna" at No. 5. The track, featuring Nicki Minaj, is Madonna's first top five hit and second top 10 since the chart's Jan. 26, 2013 launch.
Powered by its star-laden video, "B****" boasts sales of 13,000, up 1,703 percent, good for a No. 6 re-entry on Dance/Electronic Digital Songs. It also garnered 2.6 million U.S. streams (up 1,454 percent, with 81 percent stemming from Vevo on YouTube views), granting Madonna her first appearance on Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs (No. 5).
On Dance Club Songs, "B****" enters at No. 26, kicking off its bid to become the third No. 1 from her album Rebel Heart, following "Living for Love" and "Ghosttown." Remixes of "B****" from Sander Kleinenberg, Fedde Le Grand and Sick Individuals, among others, were released on June 16.

I wish the cameos and guest stars could have been used for a video for the song Rebel Heart instead. And like, legit stars IN the actual video. I feel like, while the song is so much tamer, it would warm people up to Madonna who have been turned off in recent years. And going with the whole #rebelheart theme that's been in play since last year, it's an excuse to have celebrities and other people in it. There's so much possibility with a video for that song.

When "LFL" first leaked I feel like way more people on the board liked it. What happened??? LoL When the first set of songs leaked I believe I bought "Ghosttown and Devils Pray. I didn't like "LFL" except the breakdowns which sound like a background singer singing "Love" during them.

ITA - BIM seemed like a joke or self-parody - I don't think many saw that as a good representation of how M wanted to present herself in this era. However, if it had been lead single with Fallon performance right away....

I'm just happy to see that M has her highest-charting 3rd single since WIFLFAG and highest charting non-lead single since GI2M! In hindsight her team could have improved her chart performance (for this era and many past eras too) but the bottom line is they are still getting M's music out there. I've said this before but I really wouldn't mind M totally ditching the impossible dream of CHR success and just focusing on Vevo views plus Dance & A/C charts. And with this era she has achieved all of the above! M, just keep making great videos, great remixes and great ballads. All the rest will fall into place.

I said this early on, vevo made music videos important again. That's the key to Madonna charting. She has a long history of being a top MV artist on MTV, now she can use vevo to her advantage. I bet lots of fans of other Top vevo divas will watch an M video just out of curiosity. She just needs some type of hype or controversy to get people to watch.

Though I liked the GT vid, BIM has more replay appeal. I can watch it everyday!

Unfortunately, some may let chart showing affect their sustained like of a single. With Madonna, at this stage in her career, that should be here nor there anyhow, with her limited airplay/sales potential.
I enjoy BIM for what it is, but it is No. 3 for me among the singles.

LOL . What i meant is LFL was just plain meh. Good but not great. Ghosttown is a typical Madonna ballad nothing new or exciting and BIM just pure fun,tongue in cheek sassy and most importantly VERY 2015

If by "typical," you mean darn strong, I'd agree. :) And you were talking about the videos in that instance, yes?
Surprised BIM hasn't turned up on Dance/Mix Show Airplay as of yet.
