Miranda Lambert "Four the Record" Era

[bigbluegrl23]

You'd think SONY would wanna capitalize on the probable success of RM. With Brad and Carrie hosting, they can make this a HUGE night for them. helping Brad/Carrie would do way more for the label than someone like miranda haha. lets be honest, all she has so far is THTBM.

"Baggage Claim" is the highest debut of Miranda's career. Congrats to her!

‘Baggage Claim’ is Miranda Lambert’s Highest Debuting Single to Date-Country Music Is Love

I agree with you on this one. I also think THTBM is her best so far. I do not like Baggage. I think it is as lame as Only Prettier. They criticize Carrie's songs for not being any good or with substance but ML's songs are much worse than ANY of Carrie's songs.

What did Baggage Claim debut at?

I really do not like the song at all, but I am happy for her.

 

[Pi314CA]

I don't think that's a norm because on average, she plays on average of 2k, to 6k at most usually.

You're exactly right. About half of the next 6-8 gigs for Miranda are at casinos where the maximum seating capacity is around 2k-3k.

Do they have time left to release a second single before the album release? Baggage seems to be speeding up the chart so they might release a second one prior to the album release?

"White Liar" was released before "Revolution" dropped, so I won't be surprised. And actually it's pretty much a general practice for not-so-big country stars to drop their second singles before their album releases or right at that time.

Dead Flowers were her 1st single off of Revolution and did not do well obviously.

^^Looks like Baggage is charging up the charts

Yep!!! I am really surprise on how well the single is doing on radio so far I really think that Baggage Claim is just the start of greater things to come from Miranda.

Baggage ain't selling too great is it? It has already fallen out of the top 10 on itunes.

Yes, it's sorta under expectations I suppose. But then, basically only Sugarland, Kenny Chesney, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean (If you count the "Dirt Road Anthem" remix), Taylor Swift and Lady Antebellum's leading singles' performed significantly better than hers. But then, with "Dead Flowers" flopping hardcore last time, and "White Liar" hasn't picked up much (I think it was in the Top 20 when she released her album), her album opened with 76k copies or something? Then I think there's still a a possibility for her to go around 150k copies, or at least cracking 6-digit. But then, for Miranda, I think critical performance and promotions would affect her a lot as well, so I can't say for sure, I'd think anything between 70k to 180k is possible.

 

[Pi314CA]

There will be two versions of Baggage Claim:

Both Clean and Explicit versions will be available on Amazon on August 16.

If Miranda is going to follow the explicit trend, then she seems to be shaping up to be a kick-ass redneck. I won't be supporting her.

 

[Pi314CA]

Baggage ain't selling too great is it? It has already fallen out of the top 10 on itunes.

Baggage Claim is now #68. The popularity factor dropped from 0.1496 to 0.1084 within the last 2 days. That is a large percentage drop.

 

[Claire2004]

^^Perhaps most people would prefer to buy the whole album rather than just the lead single, and are waiting for the album to drop? I know she's a consistent album seller, but I don't know her track record when it comes to sales of her singles.
