Any avid soap opera watcher knows, a funeral with a closed casket, is NEVER the end. There will be no viewing at this funeral, WB was too red..there was blood everywhere
So for all we know next month, WB may make a dramatic resurgence when we least expect it :eek
The only way this song will rebound is a. a director's cut video boosts streaming enough, b. there's a discount, c. there's a remix, d. radio magically starts to pick up the song.
If none of that ends up happening, then I guess we can deem it dead and gone.
I mean, a #12 peak in the US & #9 WW is nothing to be ashamed of, but it's severely underwhelming.

ya forgot about a commercial, the most effective one.

They could also re-release it under a different name to trick iTunes and people into buying the song again.
She seems to love the song, so it shouldn't be too hard.
Agreed. I still have hope that somehow will will snatch her a Beats commercial, especially with Ben Moor directing the video.

The song is doing just fine. It really needs a Beats commercial so sales pick up and stay consistent (every smash song nowadays gets a commercial, heck even "Circus" has a commercial on with the Twister Dance commercials). If that were to happen, radio would eventually catch on.

She just needs to do a Beats commercial. The song is innovative and a smash. We just need that promo

It isn't too early to snatch his commercial, tbh. They could definitely run two commercials at the same time, though.

Eminem's Beats commercial was premiered August 25th (or 26th, it was during the VMAs). They're about due for a change and the fact that the Beats Pill was in WB may be a good sign.

This is great news, though. My station will start playing "Work Bitch" next week. It's like the eightieth most played song where I live When the music video hits with a Beats commercial (hopefully), this should start doing pretty well.

Eminem has the current "Beats" commercial, so I'm not sure how long that will last, but they basically took scenes from his music video and aired them with a pair of Beats at the end. He's had it since the VMAs, so Britney may be able to snag a commercial in October. That would actually be a great thing if that was when she started doing promo performances.

Let's hope that Team Britney learns from that and premieres the video somewhere amazing. If they do that and then release a Beats commercial, the song could really get a second wind.
I prefer risky over generic any day. I would not be here for trash like LYLALS and Diamonds is too mediocre to be a lead single. Even with like maximum airplay and huge promo it sold less than S&S

Ben Moor is notorious for commercials made out of his music videos ("S&S" had a BEATS commercial, "Meet Me Halfway" had a commercial, etc.). I'm really hoping "Work Bitch" has a commercial. "Applause" is on 24/7 and basically with constant commercial exposure and a VMAs performance, Gaga turned the song around from being a not even platinum hit to having the potential of going past 2x platinum.
