Another dc update. LFL is listed on the 99.5 website as a song (like other current top 40 songs) to give a thumbs up or down. Once you give it a thumbs up, you can ask for an email or text alert when the song will be played. I got an alert that it was going to be played around 1:30 pm!!!!!

No need to apologize, botox- exercising caution is always a good thing. :) This LFL release has been unorthodox- released in December, yet the label waits until early February for a radio push. Having it instantly tied to the album pre-order hasn't done it great favors in terms of single sales, either. Good point. Imagine what even a small iTunes thumbnail would do.

One of the reasons I went with an at-best Bubbling Under prediction for this week is the audio-streaming performance. It's not among the Spotify top 200 (which does include a number of songs not on the Hot 100, like the iTunes chart, but still). Anyone else have thoughts?

^Vevo streams are low also, and sales. Currently #261.

They should never have made this single apart of the 6 song download from the Album. They should have waited for the radio push to make an Impact. Its not like this song sounds anything much like the Demo version. That seems like a mistake now.

The video views are now above 4 million after 11 days- surely can't compare the showing to most of the younger acts. :) And then there's also the Grammy video and other videos categorized as music on YouTube.
After stabilizing somewhat over the weekend, the sales ranking has been dropping steadily the past couple of days. A standalone single (aside from the remixes) may not hurt, but it doesn't look like that's in the works.

Well, if the airplay trend continues and more adds happen, maybe it will help give a little shot in the arm to both streaming and sales. Not expecting #1's all over, but at least help reverse course.

That's... strange. Well, as long as the spins continue for a time, it's all good, I guess.

It is kind of strange but maybe the panel is waiting to feel more comfortable with the single but will continue to play it this week and may rack up some ADDs next week and further out.

We've seen instances of a track getting a lot of adds, and that not necessarily translating into play. This could be the reverse. Do "auto" adds show up as adds in the list? I don't know much about that, but others have said that if a track gets seven spins at a station, it's an "auto add." Q-102 in Philly has played it a couple of times today (it hadn't Saturday-Monday).

Auto-adds do usually show up on the Tuesday report.
I have seen it the past.
But stations are not obligated to continue playing.
'Living for Love' surely received more than 7 spins at a ton of stations.
This is truly weird????

This is a clear sign that this weekend boost was not due to stations that are actually committed to the song.

So our expectations are correct, it was just a Valentine's weekend promo due to the concept of the song

So our expectations are correct, it was just a Valentine's weekend promo due to the concept of the song madonna and her team were planing on launching the promo for Valentines Day before the leaks. Let's give it some time to breath. At least a week before we make conclusions.

So hardly no new adds…..a weekend boost that has now stretched into Tuesday which is clearly not the the weekend. I have to be honest , I do not know what to think.

There are also reports of new stations playing it for the first time today. The add thing is very strange. All I know is that with more spins and audience impressions, add s ore more likely and it is not out of the ordinary for a single to to added long after its initial adds date. We shall see.

From 'Madonna Nation' From the wonderful 'Jasonakos'
He posted this:
4th time on WIOQ in Philly. Are they making up for Saturday, Sunday and Monday?
200 spins today on the all station panel!
Get ready for a very good update tomorrow!

I don't get how these are "radio deal" spins?

The adds thing makes no sense. And why would a radio deal be at different times/days for different stations?
If this gets a +200 or more tomorrow it could possibly be as high at #38.

Regarding the ageism or whatever, I think the sales and streams are better factor of what is resonating with people than airplay: Look at Elastic Heart - practically zero airplay but great success nevertheless.
You can't blame just radio that Madonna is not getting hits as we speak.

All is looking good, maintaining a healthy level of spins heading into early Wednesday morning - with at least one new Cumulus station on board.

If there was a promotion, we'll need to wait until early next week for the spin gains to normalize again. Right now you're looking at data that is rolling back over the previous 7 days.
