Her songs are barely ever sent toĀ radio, nothing from the entire HIFN campaign was pushed at radio. 1999 was the last one that got sent to US radio, BIOYL didn't even get an impact date. So the majority of her "official singles" don't even go to radio anyway. Ā So the fact that New Shapes got an official music video & (cancelled) SNL performance slot gave it more promo than the majority of her previous singles from XCX3 & 4.Ā Ā I just feel that investment could've gone to another song.

Like the other user said, the two performances are almost always an official single and a promo singleā¦ and considering Good Ones was still bubbling under on radio at the time, itās clear which song they were truly pushing. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
