I'm not surprised by G&G. Perfect length, great bridge, fairly catchy chorus.
AWA, on the other hand, is too long and slow to develop for radio. The ending would almost certainly be cut out. It would be a decent 6th or 7th single options but there are better options right now.
EDIT: None of Lorde's non-singles are charting on any radio format's top 100.
Dddd we are not getting six or seven singles from this album. It'll top out at five at the absolute max.
And yes, I realize they're not charting on any of the general radio charts, but seeing as there are songs charting higher than "400 Lux" and "Glory and Gore" on both iTunes and Streaming yet not on the Hot Rock Songs chart, it's clear the two must be getting enough support from radio to be pushing them onto the chart.

We could get 6 or 7 for sure. Buzzcut Season, 400 Lux, Tennis Court, G&G, and AWA are all viable single choices.
I was just checking Billboard's Hot Rock Songs chart (based off radio, streaming, and sales) for something completely unrelated to Lorde and saw that "Glory and Glore" and "400 Lux" are charting at #20 and #25, respectively.
These weren't even released as singles. Are they coming at us like a dark horse?
Glory and Gore
Does streaming from the commercial that uses it count?

Oh, I didn't realize a commercial used it.
I'm not sure if that counts for Billboard, but if it does, that'd probably explain it.

Oh, there are definitely more single-worthy songs off the album, but even the most successful of pop albums top out at five singles or so. I definitely don't see it coming to seven.
