Hits is saying 40K in banked preorders for the album. So, yeah, this one's going to start very well (shame it won't hit #1 due to The Weeknd). We just need this superb song to score at pop. Looking at 100k in pure album sales now. This song is about to blow up. Imagine if they had pushed the song a month ago.

Do you guys think this will be big? I wonder if she can get a proper global hit out of this.

This doesn't sound like a global hit at all and i will be surprised if this go further than octahate, another much hyped song (and far better than this) that didn't lived the hype. I heard some other of her songs and she seems quite interesting (in fact what i heard, i don't know the tittle was far better than this) but no matter how popular she is in tumblr, that doesn't sound like a mainstream smash at all. I think she will sell a good bunch of albums, but i'm not that sure she will have the same success with singles

It shouldn't be surprising - the station has been hyping her song a lot on Twitter, and she's local to NY/NJ - but Z100 officially added New Americana this week.

Video looks great. Not a huge fan of the song however. I would have loved Colors.

She's more local to WAEB-FM B104 from Allentown, she's from Washington, NJ in Warren County, NJ (part of the Lehigh Valley) but essentially part of the New York Metro Area.

Finally gave in and gave this girl a listen (New Americana's video came on my recommended list and decided to start from there) after reading that she's another Lana clone but I personally don't find anything in her sound/lyrics/vocals/aesthetics that even remotely resembles the Goddess aside from the 'found footage' at the beginning of the video and the allegedly huge cult fanbase. She looks like Pink if she wore one of Kylie Jenner's wigs and her sound is a slightly more pop Lorde.
About the song, I LOOVE it! It's such an anthem albeit the lyrics are somewhat cringeworthy.

Yeah, I agree, I see a lot of stuff on here about Lana, but what in the hell about this sounds anything like Lana Del Rey? Certainly not anything vocally or production-wise. Maybe lyrically? I didn't take the time to delve that deeply into this lyrically quite frankly.
This is just meh for me at the moment. But I definitely appreciate this girl's hustle. She has turned nothing into something with her numbers so far.

This girl and track is such Tumblr bait. I don't think I've ever rolled my eyes more in one song so far this year.

I feel as if Halsey was a carefully created product by music executives to make someone that is as Tumblr as possible (and of course, the Tumblr kids eat it up). I've heard several people say that besides Tumblr (obviously), Apple Music/Beats 1 had a very important part in her success as well.

As much as I like this song, the lyrics is very eye-rolling and cringe-worthy. Tumblr crowds will definitely eat those kind of lyrics up though. Her fanbase is probably kinda insane because Tumblr. I lost count of how many anon hate that I got from simply saying that Halsey try too hard to be edgy.
