My radio station just played #WelcomeToTheShow and went "this is the best I've heard for a long time, raise the volume now!!" Etc
Well ppl.who know what they are talking about think its a hit..Ahem.so.their you go. Wtts is a real banger imo. Obviously none of toh singles convinced wbr they had potential. Like streaming potential of gt. So Adam and Wbr decided to go in a new direction. But I.think.the majority love the track. And it has real hit potential. But you cant say it does or doesn't. Its impossible to determine what track well be a radio hit. Its a real lottery. Gt was an unexpected us pop hit. And.streaming wise was overwhelming with nearly 120 mill plays. And made waves in the Dance Edm.world. It all.depends on luck and promo now.
I think we all are dealing with a gray area here when it comes to WTTS. No one knows for sure what will happen to it. I do agree with you that it will need promo to get it off the ground. I'm hoping that if it truly is the next single for him, that WBR, his management team and Shosh are well on board to do their job and push it.
I do have a problem when you use words like "obviously". We, "obviously" know NOTHING. It is silly to think that we do.
Shosh was asked on twitter several weeks ago, if there would be another single released to radio from TOH. Her answer was "of course". So maybe we should take Adam at his word when he said that he wanted to have a new song for Spring and for his fans to sing on AI. It could very well be as simplistic as that.
It also might happen that the song TOH could be released in the Summer after WTTS, IF it goes to radio as Shosh said it would, has a few months run up the charts. We will have to see and wait patiently.
IMO, TOH was loaded with potential radio hits. It is all in the promo as I see it. The song TOH was tried out in Oz and New Zealand and didn't resonate. But it is a big world. It could have resonated else where imo. Maybe even in the US. It just wasn't tried here yet.
Ghost Town was pushed heavily for six months on US radio and that IMO helped to make it a smash. A song HAS to be played a lot until the public falls in love with it. It happens all the time with sh!tty songs. You hear it long enough and you start to love it. I am NOT saying Ghost Town was a sh!tty song at all. Just giving an example of how maybe TOH song could have been pushed harder in Oz and NZ to make it connect.
Anyway, what a great few days it has been. Adam so happy and excited for WTTS, with a great performance, a new snippet of Can't Go Home, and we got to hear him sing Can't Help Falling In Love at his brothers wedding. All in all a wonderful treat.
