Nobody Knows Me 2,310 Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Some journalist has feast on the scraps of this thread to produce an article taking pleasure that the new Madonna single 'bombs' in the charts and is disliked by her hardcore fans.

I’ve been a fan since 1990 and I’ve watched madonna hit the top 10 again and again. The UK LOVED Madonna big time. So to see her miss the charts now and fail to gain the attention she received in the past is so sad. But UK radio wont play her!!

Ambrose 606 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 The only reason Madonna isn't doing well in the charts is because RADIO does not play her. Radio is nearly irrelevant these days.

Lucifer's Angel 651 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 The song is a grower but how it is supposed to grow exactly? As a fan I had to play the song 4-5 times before falling in love with it. I struggle to imagine a person who is not a fan willing to give this song a serious chance. At first listen, the 1 2 cha cha hook is not enough catchy and it sounds like Madonna is chasing a trend. It's tough to get immediately obsessed with the song, so if you are not a fan it is very unlikely that you will stream Medellin a second or third time. Maluma fans got many other songs released by Maluma in this period, so they are not that obsessed with Medellin. Regardless that, it would still be humiliating to chart only thanks to Maluma streaming power. That is why I believe that would have been a smarter idea to start the era with a solo lead single that would have tested better the power of Madonna legions of fans. Obviously, she could have flopped even by releasing a solo single, but at least in that case she would have give the fans her best shot . Medellin is a good song, but is it the best one in the album? Does Medellin reflects the album's soul better than the rest of songs? The lead single is crucial for the commercial success of an album and surely Medellin is not the epic comeback that many fans were expecting. The video does not help because it is such a cliche video that lacks of any original idea and it pales in comparison to Madonna greatest music videos. There is still hope left tho if the Eurovision performance is confirmed. That is the best promo spot that Madonna can get and hopefully she was smart enough to save the best shot for that.

I wouldn't say radio is nearly irrelevant. In the UK, BBC radio 1 have 10 million listeners a week and BBC radio 2 have 15 million a week. That's still a lot of people to reach who enjoy music and most likely to stream or purchase a song after hearing it on the radio. What truly makes a difference is sales. In the UK 100 streams on a paid-for service equates to one sale, while free services like YouTube require 600 streams to equal one sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, does my stream even counts if I skip the long prayer at the beginning? The only thing I truly enjoy about the video is Madonna black hair look, but that is not enough to make me stream the full video. I will keep streaming the song tho and I hope that radio will show more support cuz Medellin deserves to climb the charts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondebenji 2,005 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 As much as I would luv a huge hit. Its ain't going to happen for her no matter what she releases. Medallin has been a real grower for me and I love it but she's now in the stage of her career where its all albums and tours. David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen etc all were big album sellers at these later stages in their career but not singles anymore. The guys that are comparing to Taylor Swift numbers just ain't fair. Shes in a completely different stage of her career with her bright cheery damage control single. She didnt have the huge amount of hits of the last one so it back to happy pop. Female Artists Like J-lo, Gwen Stefani, Mariah Carey, Janet jackson, Celine Dion etc all have had new singles in the last year or so and no one had a huge top 10 hit single. Madonna has been around for longer than them and look at the all the attention and buzz she gets. Not even the untouchable Beyonce has had a huge hit single for a long time. She has become a huge album seller. Ask the general public a song of hers in the last 5 yrs and they would be struggling to recall. Madonna Released a single 5 mins in length. She knows it aint going to get played on the radio. Shes p[laying her own game this time and Im soooo glad Im still luving the ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister_Pop 815 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 The song is living its life like no other lead of hers these last years... she's defending it with promotion. It's not over yet, time will tell how we must consider it... I think so far Medellin has been existing so much more that the singles from the rolling Stones, Bowie ou Mariah Carey... Even if it's not a big hit chartwise (because of the chart rules), it will achieve some charting, and has impact already, and it's all adding on M legacy.
