Marketing is only essential during debut era or breakthrough era. I mean its still important to attract new fans but you don't want to do it so much so as to annoy the people who are already fans. |
Amen brother.

Not feeling "Wide Awake". At all. Personal preference.
Let's not categorize things to black & white only, shall we? I don't need a slick and expensive MV to promote the song. Hell I already hate to say the word 'promote' here. "Love Will Tear Us Apart" is still able to get Joy Division new fans despite the GOD ****ING AWFUL MV. That's a little example. No need to build the hype to high heaven, get it? See what happened to Joanne & BTW. Matchbox Twenty's lyrics video for their new song ("She's So Mean") is enough for me for example.
Thats my other girl right there 
And Taylor will be 26 
So, can we rest the case for good now?
