Despite the obvious sonic attributes of Taylor Swift’s new, Max Martin-produced track, “Shake It Off,” many are wondering why Country radio has so far made the choice not to jump in with one of its biggest artists.

As of Wednesday evening, only five Country stations have played the song more than once, and only three have played it more than twice.

To be clear: Swift’s new single hasn’t had any kind of trial at the Country format to indicate audience response. Programmers can’t point to any negative research to justify disregarding her song, only their preconceived definition of the format—a format that in the last few years has embraced artists such as Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Eric Church and even Kid Rock, who’ve incorporated elements of hard rock and hip-hop, among other ostensibly “non-Country” genres.

I believe the reasons for the format shying away from the song are self-evident, but I'm glad they pointed out the hypocrisy that's arisen from the genre's confused, or selectively disregarded, orthodoxy.

Anaconda's sales are a bit underwhelming atm compared to the pace at which the video is accumulating views.

But I mean I suppose that only makes sense, all things considered.

I mean look at Loyal's streams and radio vs sales. Anaconda is doing amazingly for an urban song.

This Diplo CB song is kinda boring.

Rih and the girl on the right laughing at him n;;;

He wasn't even paying her any mind If anything he was the one going on about his business, acting just like he would whether she was there or not, she was the one that was clearly bothered and pressed...in every picture

The fact that he has no problem going up to someone that's sitting by her and she can't deal with that without looking like the most pressed person on the earth goes to show who is really bothered and who isn't.

Her manager Scott said months ago that he wasn't expecting country to play her songs.

It is EVERYTHING I was hoping for. Slow and haunting and just flaw free

It wasn't Shakira who stole it it was the writer El Cata, technically it wasn't her fault

I'm not sure how fast Loyal was racking up views, but yeah I do recall people pointing out its lopsided airplay/sales ratio.

Taylor also said herself this is a pop album, no?

You gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, got to love me harder
And if you really need me
You gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, got to love me harder"

Oh
He kinda looks like he's going out of his way to talk to those lil kids (who don't rly look like they know him) just to get a photo op with Rhenna.

I don't see anything wrong with her expression even those kids weren't even here for him

[Nicole]

No I didn't see the trailer.

There’s so many different televised country music awards. Can’t wait for them to start airing and for Taylor to not perform, win or even attend. That’s when the effect on her sales will start.
