What kind of ridiculous release schedule
Quote:
Originally posted by alexanderao
I believe you. Once again, Republic Records has orchestrated a very disorganized release which should harm the song's performance on radio. Its Spotify and streaming performance is also very weak right now (which is actually what I worried about when this song first came out because it is the same thing that prevented Team from becoming huge).
Quote:
Originally posted by Wonderland
I'm just trying to think of the future. It's hard to say whether this should go to radios or not.
On one hand, it'll be good if it gets some plays so that radio has something to spin till she puts her lead single out. But on the other hand, perhaps a long break from radio could be better for her lead single to go in on.

That single cover 
Lots of great lyrics and I always love a good, loud, booming chorus. 
The first verse reminds me of the first film, if only she could've been around to contribute to that soundtrack as well by then.
The intro is creepy AF and then... WOW
