Skyscraper is at 700K while it went to radio.
Having a hit creates the chance that people would actually want to give a damn about your album.
If you don't think hit singles sell albums, then why are you so desperate for a second single? And hope it does well on radio?

I read Selena's thread to know what's up with her. Her, Demi, Avril, Kelly and Katy
and we Demi fans wanted Demi's first 4 singles in her career to be sent for adds, how about that? huh?
Skyscraper is actually one of the best selling ballads of the year, Sit.
I'm desperate for a second single because it will make Demi's album sell, singles actually make Demi's albums sell.
but that's not for EVERY artist, no need to think about it. *sigh*

LOL let me get this straight... Y'all were about to stone me for comparing Demi to ROOKIE Rihanna/Katy/Gaga but you're comparing Selena who's barely popular all over Europe to GAGA IN HER ****ing prime?? Pause... rereads what you wrote.. rereads again.. LOL.
Lol, you choose to pay attention to some of what I write and neglect others.. I clearly stated that HWR ****ed Demi up with Here We Go Again. HWGA was released in music climate when the Kelly Clarkson sound was huge and it had the potential to become huge. The fact that she didn't get a second single was a major ****-you too. I FREAKING WROTE that like on this page or the other one.
My point is this era, it all boils down to SkYSCRAPER not being a smash hit. And if you'd take your stan-glasses off, you'd acknowledge the fact and see that the world didn't stop.
And Demi is getting a second single, so what is the problem? So your last two alinea's don't even make sense. It's being sent to radio when Selena's previous songs from AYWR didn't even get send. I swear you all want HWR to send a single from her album to radio every month.

Bolded would be really impressive, if you couldn't count on one hand how many ballads were released as singles. How did it do in the grand scheme of things? Round and Round/AYWR all are close to 600K. And AYWR didn't even get send to radio. It sure as hell didn't have half of hollywood tweeting about it.
What in hell have I been saying: hit singles make albums sell. If the song gets send to radio and flops (and doesn't become a hit) it won't do **** for her album sales. You practically just agreed with me. Tell me, is it my avy that turns you off? Lol.

Sis no, just because your first single wasn't a smash hit doesn't mean the whole era is ****ED?... hmm... falling down? and NO, you're the one who should put their stanning aside, when it comes to Demi and radios you don't give a **** and say we're obsessed with it when YOU GUYS were the ones WHINING and COMPLAINING about LYLALS not being sent for radio adds when she had 3 singles before that were sent for radio adds!!!!

You will act the ****ing exact same if Selena's single were never sent for adds... and that ****ing happend with LYLALS with you guys spamming HWR and they were blocking your asses, so **** off with your double standards!!! seriously.

Did you actually read what I wrote? Or do you just automatically choose to disagree? Have you been reading anything I've written? I said it could've smashed and had Hit written all over it had HWR not ****ed her over.

Seriously, you don't even read what I write. Talking to you is becoming tiring reallllyy fast. I said a smash hit, not a smash FIRST SINGLE.
You will act the ****ing exact same if Selena's single were never sent for adds... and that ****ing happend with LYLALS with you guys spamming HWR and they were blocking your asses, so **** off with your double standards!!! seriously.
Again, do you actually read what I write before telling me to **** off? AYWR didn't get send to radio and actually happened to sell a lot. Demi's Skyscraper did get send to radio and underperfomed. Her second single is set to be sent to radio. How is that "never get send for adds, **** off Selena fans".?
And I don't tweet. **** most of us in the Selena thread don't even request her **** lol.

Hahahaha, I love how you're bragging about AYWR selling 600k when Demi had 3 singles that sold 600k with no radio support too, take a seat sis.

Alright, I need to bring many artists now...... Flo Rida.... Right Round sold 5 million and his album didn't even crack the 300k and not even close.
Kelly Rowland... Motivation went platinum and was huge on radio... her album? not even over 250k and not close.
Jordin Sparks.... Battlefield.... platinum and her album debuted at #8 I think with less than 50k copies sold.
Ke$ha.... Two 2xplatinum singles and Cannibal isn't EVER near gold.
Avril Lavigne... what the hell.... 1.7m sold and peaked at #11 on hot 100... album? 288k only.
LMFAO.... PRA almost 5xplatinum and their album sold 300k only...
MANY MANY artists. Hope you will understand my point and not act delusional
*since music lover left, I hope no one re-opens the argument, thanks

After Black Friday her sales in last year wasnt decreasing so much, it was almost steady, so i think it is some a promo for the albums...
and Demi's jingle balls events belong to the biggest's radios (KIIS, Z100). So this could be an another great chance to 20-25K/weeks constant sales for Unbroken.

You can't deny that HWR did a lot of things wrong for Demi. They messed up good opportunities. And yes, Skyscraper had acceptable promo, but not more than the promo that Selena always gets.
AND HWR messed it up with the promo for Unbroken. Like really. That one week promo, and then after that 10 weeks without any promotion. Sweet

I think Demi actually sells a lot of albums with single "promo". Her voice sounds interesting on the songs, and people want to check out more of her. You can hear her talent even if it's "just" a song.

You need not justify yourself.
Its always the same. I'm not here to fight. But it annoys me that many Demi Fans say that she would get no promo. There are so maaaaany videos from Skyscraper performance on YouTube and so maaaaany Demi Interviews..... Even X factor did Promo for her. Maybe people find her sound boring and do not want buy her album or her songs. It's not always HWR fault.

Pure bull. LYLALS has been performed at like 4 shows. One of them the TCA's where she ****ed up bad and the others were less than 5 million+ viewers, whereas many of Demi's were over 10 million+.
My point is you guys need to chill. You're acting like the era is already over when it's not. GYHAB is going to be released soon so just ****in' chill. If its not sent for adds, then you can bitch & moan.
Alot of you are complaining because Selena has had two singles so far from this album go to radio. You're forgetting that Selena's first single was sent in March. The second wasn't sent till August or September (I forget). 5-6 months. It's not just Demi waiting for an adds date, Selena was too.

That's... Not gonna happen. But she could reach 25k+ the last week of December.

My point is that you can't deny that HWR messed up a LOOOOOT of things for Demi. It's not all their fault, that is sure, but basically they could have made her album sell way more. But they didn't.
Anyway, we still have GYHAB, to save this era. even if i don't think it will

LOL right? and that Selena fan said no one likes Demi's sound but yet that girl sang it on X Factor and she said the song means A LOT to her.
Demi performed Skyscraper for 10 million viewers only ONCE, on AGT.... and Selena performed R&R there last year.
If they wanna talk about underperforming then talk about R&R.. it got sent for radio adds, it was a catchy pop song.. she performed it a several times too...
Demi performed Skyscraper on ALMA and Do Something awards.... the DS got like what... 500k viewers? yeah you should SHUT THE **** UP if you wanna talk about ratings.
we're the ones who got her to perform on the DS awards actually.

And its also funny that a pressed demi fan come into a Selena Thread and shade Selena for nothing and even open a Selena Thread to shade her? I yes she got much promo. I was posting it because I am the same opinion like Musiclover1987 and Right Now.

Can we compare the shows that Selena and Demi performed on? and can we count them?
