I guess was under the impression that add dates do matter. My understanding is that radio play builds awareness and helps drive sales. So, I thought RCA would not want a late November add date, since radio stations will be switching to holiday formats. As I pointed out in my original post, if the single is not announced until early next month and released for sale mid-month, then the add date would be late November. I was just wondering whether this scenario really made any sense from a business perspective. I realize that rabid fans will become aware of the single early and will purchase it right away. But Adam needs more than us to hear and buy the single for it to be a smash hit. Again, just random speculation ... I have done some work with the film and TV industry, but not music, so I'm still learning. Usually in film there is a long lead time to build buzz and anticipation, but I guess the music industry is different. I realize that Adam is worried about leaks and wants to surprise us. But it seemed to me that so much silence at this point is a bit odd. But what do I know? Nada.  I'm not sure that add dates are that important. I think it may be the date that record companies start pushing the song. However, I believe that Kelly had more than 100 adds before the actual add date. I think it depends on how bad the stations want to start playing the song. |

 Well, I don't like ANY of the recent Adam pics. The hair is like nails on a chalkboard. Actually, I think I prefer nails on a chalkboard. So there.  We always laugh/shrug and say, "Well, if you don't like it today, don't worry... he'll totally change his hair by the time the next pics come out." Yeah, right. He's been wearing the same hair for MONTHS AND MONTHS. (bitch bitch bitch whine whine) I had an extra big bowl of bitchflakes today, and I'm feeling cranky and desperate and impatient and I don't understand anything about the roll-out of a single. Discussions about radio debuts and digital releases and add dates and the intricacies of timing and which comes first or last or in the middle is all GREEK TO ME (  to gelly!!)I just want another Niles day or something. I want to majorly flail about something.... I want AN OFFICIAL TWEET ANNOUNCING SOMETHING/ANYTHING DEFINITE.  |
