Single or Promotional Single?

Isn’t this song technically a promotional single? Yes it was released before the album dropped, but there is no set date for it to be sent to radio which usually the defining feature that determines a single from a promotional single. Wikipedia1105 (talk) 21:47, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This Billboard article said "The double release -- one a traditional single that was teased on social media since last week, the other a surprise release that caught the pop world off-guard". It basically states that LYTLM is a single and LAHN isn't. It's also a B-side and is frequently called a "track" instead of a "single". I'd say it's a promo single.

It is a single. There are reliable sources calling it a single[1] [2] [3] A source referring to a song as a "track" when other sources have called it a single doesn't make it a promotional single. CountyCountry (talk) 23:10, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, an article might have referred to it as a single, but it has no plan to be sent to radio which is usually the defining feature of a single. Wikipedia1105 (talk) 19:46, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Radio release isn't the only thing that can make a song a single. There are several reliable sources (not just one) that have called this a single. In some cases, radio release is needed to make a song a single, but this isn't the case. CountyCountry (talk) 21:26, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@79.109.44.150:, radio release doesn't make a song a single. Some cases it does, but this is not the case. The Billboard article you gave did not call this a single. This does not make it a promo single when there are reliable sources calling it a single. LaMotte didn't say this isn't a single. Nothing was confirmed that this isn't a single. CountyCountry (talk) 23:31, 22 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Selena has literally done radio interviews where she made it explicitly clear that Lose You To Love Me is “the single” and that Look At Her Now is merely a “gift for the fans”. This is definitely not the second single and is just a promotional single and both Interscope’s marketing director (through a tweet) and Selena Gomez herself (through multiple interviews) have made this clear.

@Razeen25:Do you have a source that said Selena Gomez stated that it's just a gift for the fans? And the tweets?CountyCountry (talk) 16:05, 23 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here is an interview where Selena confirms there’s only been one single so far (Lose You To Love Me): [4] Razeen25 (talk) 05:51, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No where in the clip did it prove your claim. CountyCountry (talk) 06:15, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

She said they're preparing the second official single, she would have said "third" if Look At Her Now was also a single. Razeen25 (talk) 10:52, 18 December 2019 (UTC) Here is a radio interview where Selena talked about how LYTLM is "the single" but how she wanted to release Look At Her Now immediately after as a gift for the fans. She says this around 1:07-1:27 [5].[reply]
