Please, someone help me get why this song is bad? It's very catchy and care-free and I've listened to it 5 times today already. I'll be surprised if it truly fails.

People are mad because they wanted other tracks as the next single. The bitterness is real.

If Capitol wants to test out the waters with no payola, they picked a really bad song to do it with

[Jackson]

Maybe they ran out of payola money when Birthday underperformed?? They need to fund this stuff.

[renanmarcal]

This promo starting with mess, I can't

[nick4bty]

I wouldn't be surprised if they're still feeding payola to Dark Horse :ghost:

[Pauly]

So much dysfunction.

And why would they do that?

Why would they 1) release This Is How We Do and 2) give it an adds date with no push?

"Wait for the promo"
"Wait until America wakes up"

It's not happening For radio's #1 gal to have literally 0 spins is not a good sign. TIHWD is dead on arrival, and I wish she would just cancel the video and move on to something else.

omg

[Jackson]

Honestly at this point moving on to LL right away would not be a bad idea. Lyric video in mid August (on Roar's anniversary) and adds day end of August or beginning of September with a music video in late September

The Kii I will get if this peaks lower than GUY

If it smashes, then I'll be glad it didn't kill the era, but I kind of want it to underperform badly so Katy and Capitol can wake up and realize releasing songs like TIHWD is so 2010. Katy is past that stage already. It's such a bad single choice. It's decent as an album filler, but a promoted single to represent the album? Not at all.

What's wrong with testing the waters? Dial it down a notch or ten.

They need to dial it down

No adds date? This is giving me slight dressin up teas

Let's not pretend like Dressin' Up wouldn't smash right now

[The Governor]

I think International Smile would actually work as a single. Just replace the "ready for take off" part
with a verse from I G G Y and you've got a smash on your hands

edit: and wasn't International Smile getting some spins on Radio when Dark Horse started taking off?

Have we done the daily Top 5/6 should've been/should be singles pick of the day?

1. Roar
2. Dark Horse
3. Legendary Lovers
4. Walking On Air
5. Choose Your Battles

Imagine the critical acclaim and slayage on the charts? Every song is so different and truly represents a different color from Prism.

Back to reality she just chose TCAs over Grammys and picked TIHWD as a single. Fair.

The mess ensuing seems like it could be a Marry The Night-sized catastrophe.
