Oh yeah, the Priory song!! Itβs called βWeekendβ or βThe Weekendβ, right? I wasnβt following exact radio numbers at the time, mainly just my local stationβs playlist & the Billboard Top 40, but I remember seeing it and going βtf?β It was a catchy song, but weird ass promo. Iβm interesting in digging back to read those threads now [ pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/141575/priory-weekend)?page=1

Yeah, hello, I'm one of them. Didn't y'all get that memo from the Never Really Over thread? (But actually for a brief time last year I did qualify as one as I was interning at a record label.) That was pretty incredible tbh Sent you a PM!:)

listen, i know none of us know for sure or anything, but it feels reasonable to speculate that there may be money involved when the bullet turned from negative to positive this suddenly, especially since her label used similar shenanigans on their last lead single.
now whether the move in itself is shady is another matter, but i dont think its uncalled for to wonder whether the label may have had a hand in this or not.

Maybe Taylor became really poor recently. I'm quite sure she can pay more than +10 spins and -0.030 audience

By the way when I mentioned payola with this song I didn't mean straight cash transfers. More like her performing at iHeart's award show and music festival gave her an airplay boost. And that boost might be running out now.

I'm quite sure she can pay more than +10 spins and -0.030 audience I lol'ed but it is important to note that the song is on its way out of AM Top 100, gets less than 3 million views per week on Youtube, and just fell out of Top 40 on Spotify. I'm not saying it's Taylor messing with it but to me it feels like there must be some label involvement to get some much needed airplay. If radio were to naturally build up, "ME!" would have crashed HARD by now.

I'm not saying it's Taylor messing with it but to me it feels like there must be some label involvement to get some much needed airplay. If radio were to naturally build up, "ME!" would have crashed HARD by now. I think now is about the right time for it to drop. Where were Dancing With A Stranger or Sweet But Psycho on streaming when they started crashing? Nightmare is about the same as ME! on Spotify and it's still rising. Cool is still rising and it's not even in the top 200 on Spotify. Hey Look Ma, I Made It is still rising fast and it's at #90 on Spotify. The songs that are doing more poorly on radio but better on streaming are either really old and did well on radio but have since gone recurrent, a bit too urban (though some of those can still do well on pop if their streaming is really good, it just takes a bit more convincing), or by smaller artists that aren't as established on pop radio and don't have the anticipation to debut as strongly there.

The call outs have been released. Theyβre still abysmally awful but there is a slight improvement from last week.

I don't think they should continue pushing this higher, but they might want to keep it barely alive until OTR finally dies down. Then when they do release a second single, she'll have a shot at #1.
FWIW, this is still doing well on iTunes (it's above Katy surprisingly), so at least its consistent there.

I hear this song everywhere on the radio. Maybe her streaming is not as high as others but her radio play sure is.
