She sounds fantastic on this, but it could have been better overall (missed opportunity for a better bridge in particular). The chorus reminds me of Roxette.

We are just realistic lol, also radio isn't end of all when it comes to getting hits. Yes and I believe she is more invested in receiving that gold man statue again. I predict she will.

Will it be a hit? Maybe, specially if the film is huge. Will it be a radio hit? Lmao, not on CHR. It's a decent soundtrack single. I can see it doing similar to how βShallowβ performed on radio (without the weird chart run), where it goes to the top of Hot AC/AC and gets pulled into the Top 20 on CHR/Pop but falls short of going further.

Of course it will flop on Pop. She couldnβt even get βRain On Meβ to the top ten there. Those days are behind her. I like this track. Excuse me? Rain on Me was Top 10 on pop radio and Stupid Love peaked at #11, she's doing well for someone nearly 15 years into the game. I thought ROM peaked at #11 on Pop?

I like this; don't love it, but I can see it growing on me. I love the production. She sounds great; there are times when the song gets a little too big for her voice but on the whole she sounds great.

^yeah, I agree. Or some parts where she could have kept the note going instead of going in for more belts. But still great nonetheless.

I thoroughly enjoyed this. It's very 80s in all the right ways yet it sounds fresh a la the recent 80s Synthpop revival.
I would love to see this do well on CHR/Pop, AC, and Hot AC, but we all know radio success is not the be all end all.

Don't think it's charting on the US Apple Music yet, but is #95 in the UK, which is pretty great!
Edit: 13,000th post for me

If that's the case then why do you care about the adds? Please leave this thread and let us enjoy its run however short/long it will be. Just because your diva isn't that successful, talented, attractive, doesn't have fashion sense, can't get or keep a man, etc. doesn't give you carte blanche to project all that nonsense onto those who are successful, talented, attractive, etc. We are sick and tired of it being brought up ad nausem elsewhere and in any thread that isn't hers. Do not give me that whole "OHHHHH THE BIG BAD PEOPLE ARE GANGING UP ON ME!!! EFF THIS FORUM" song and dance. Perhaps if she recorded a song like that she might actually get a hit.

I have always liked Lady Gaga. Rain on Me and Shallow spent many weeks in my personal top 10 weekly countdown. Stop bringing up other artists in this thread! That's a reportable offense. Your doing it Disco, not me!

I think this is great! Definitely a great thematic movie song. I donβt see it doing a ton on radio either but Iβd love to be surprised

Not much on Spotify apart from Brazil where it debuts at #98 with 135k streams. LMs need to focus on streaming instead downloading now.

Added by Z100. Still waiting on the full report to see how many adds it got in total. How many spins does a song need to count as an add? For some reason I thought it was 7, but I checked each of the 16 stations who reported adds yesterday and none of them had this in their rolling top 50. And for most of them, their #50 song had just 4 spins or so, so you'd expect a new song with 7 spins would show up. Also I didn't realize the Adds report includes spins from the partial Tuesday.. I always thought it would use data from up to the end of day Monday. The other thing I noticed is that it seems it takes a few days for some new songs to show up on stations 'recently played' playlists which are updated on their sites in real time. I noticed this when KIIS started playing Lizzo's About Damn Time on premiere day, but on KIIS's site they didn't show it on their playlist history. Even now when you look on Z100's site, you can see the songs they show having played yesterday and Hold My Hand isn't on there.

Stations report adds themselves. Auto adds are a thing, yes, but most adds are just the station reporting that "this is on our playlist now" meaning they plan to begin spinning it at some point this week.

It's not bad per se... it just doesn't go anywhere. Really talented vocally but not exciting. The same feelings I keep frequently getting with all her music nowadays.
Once again, just reminds me that unfortunately ARTPOP era permanently deterred her away from unique/boundary pushing and instead aged her 20 years and into making music suitable for reception lobbies and The Voice covers.
Also ironically it's the ballads I dislike most by her these days, even though that's became her bread and butter with her current artist branding. I actually prefer her earlier ballads (Brown Eyes, Speechless, You and I) to her Joannes and whatnot.

Then you have the songs like Stupid Love, Free Woman, Plastic Doll, etc which sound catered for waiting in line at Dunkin Donuts.
