    Easy or difficult?

    Don’t understand why a record label would block a music video which promotes the music they sell.  Can anyone explain that to me?  Cause I don’t but it. I honestly think she didn’t want to release it because her label didn’t give her a big budget for it and wasn’t happy with the results. 

     

    Yes. The only scenario I can think of is THAT they didn't like that the music video editor was fired and SHE started editing it herself. (Not sure if the label hired but)

    Or they're really making it difficult for her as she says but 

     

    A video for “Don’t Forget” is also “definitely” on the way, but Ferreira grows visibly frustrated when talking about it – there’s still work to do. “It's my first music video in like seven or eight years, I just can’t let it just be okay,” the singer says. “It makes things weird for me because some people are just bound to be disappointed.” The label, she adds, are also continuing to make things difficult, though she doesn’t specify how. “Don’t I deserve it to be exactly the way I want it to? And why is everything such a battle? I just feel like a 10-year-old sometimes.”

     

    I was going to say, what are you doing editing your own video?
    The first editor, they were good, it just wasn’t the right person, tone-wise. I don’t know if you noticed by now, but I’m very picky. I don’t like things to be clean and perfect, but for it to look not clean and perfect and come across well, it requires work. I feel like I’m pretty hands-on with everything I do. When I collaborate with people, I give them their space to do it, obviously. But when it’s your own stuff — and the thing is too, with this song, I just couldn’t let there be any room to feel like it’s still not fully representing what I want. Once I turned the song in, I felt so relieved. I thought I was done with trying to figure out the puzzle of it. Now, it’s turned into doing that but with the video. I’m even annoyed by it! I would love to just be like, I shoot this thing and I don’t have to worry about it. I feel the pressure, like it’s the only time I’m ever going to be able to make a music video, but that’s just not the reality of the situation. But in my mind I’m always a little worried that everything is the last thing, because of how the last six years have been for me. I guess it’s a little bit like PTSD or something. I would really panic about it.

    Too long to read but, here I go :(

     

    Anyway

    I wanted this thread to be re-opened because I used to like to discuss and read about Miss. Ferreira.

    But it feels like a waste of energy rooting for someone with so many, let's call it difficulties to succeed in her career.

    To me, leaks won't be sufficient, but it will help us to move on because Sky's case, LOOKS LIKE there's no moving at all.

     

    As fans, I believe we did as much as we could to support: Petition, glued posters at the Record's building and protest banners and call Capitol Records in their social media. Even tho these actions weren't efficient, they were the best things we could do.

     

    The false promises and starts were missed oportunities, gave us glimpses of hope, and then nothing about it. Sometimes or most of the times, vague answers like this one:

    Spoiler

    Sky, herself, even tho she was open to mention her label's issues on her Interviews, she still sounded so vague (to me) and could really use some humility in an open letter to her fans or whatever.  I'm sorry for her if the label gave her a date and she couldn't do it, due they blocking it, perfectionism or lack of $$$ but we at least deserve the truth. 

     

    We roooted for the bare minimum and we still have nothing. I don't want to fall again oh 2023 it's the year, because we really have been there and we surely don't deserve this. Maybe it's for the best to keep streaming the songs that we're already released/leaked and enjoy it as it is.
