I think FLY will relaunch Avril's career and bring her back into being considered as one of the greatest musicians of all time. I believe Fly will be an excellent song, but the problem is that it will flop anyway if there's not enough promotion.

Maybe your expectations are too high for one song, but releasing GYWYH to radios in 10 days and then a charity song in a few months is a great move for her media image... Yeah, I suppose so. I just thought since it's for charity the GP would be more inclined to purchase the song. I think FLY will relaunch Avril's career and bring her back into being considered as one of the greatest musicians of all time. I believe Fly will be an excellent song, but the problem is that it will flop anyway if there's not enough promotion. Does anyone know if EPIC RECORDS will support this song? Actually will it have anything to do with Epic?

Usually when an artist releases a non-album single, they still release under their record label. Keep Holding On was released under RCA; however, that song was also released for a movie -- so a totally different situation. But I speculate that she will released Fly with EPIC's support.

Well any "Epic support" for Fly would be welcome but I really wouldn't get my hopes up on this one. They've clearly distanced themselves from anything to do with Avril and AL. Just look at the way they did NOTHING to promote/support GYWYL. Even if Avril's been out of commission lately for whatever reason...they could've shown their connection in some way.
But no. LA Reid is solely focussed on that Trainor woman...who has nothing on Avril, but did have chart topping success and grammy nom. I don't see her having more than one successful record tbh.
To me it shows no loyalty on Epic's part whatsoever. It's too bad they own the AL leftovers. That'll probably prevent Avril from ever releasing potential gems on a new EP.

The only amount of promo they could really give her for either song is tweeting about it. Clearly Avril isn't well enough to be performing right now, even if they were able to book anything for her. GYWYL will be sent to radio soon, maybe they'll promote it a little then.

Does it really matter if it flops? I really don't think Avril gives a monkey's about making hits anymore. So why should we care about that part?
As for the song itself, I have no idea what to expect. If it sounds anything like what she's been putting out over the last few years, it won't be something I'll be into. But who knows?

As long as she still get "hits" in the form of fans buying it so she still will be able to be a music artist. But Fly will get its promotion through the Special Olympics. And after all it is a single supporting the Olympics/Foundation not a song for the fans to get a billboard hot 100

If it's a song for charity though, it should receive promo of some kind so that it will sell a lot, since that's the whole point. I just hope they don't do something stupid and offer it for free or something.

They could release it (for at least one week) as an Special Olympics exclusive. Everyone who donates money to the SO gets the song...

Someone will for sure buy the song and upload it online though, where a bunch of people will just rip it for free. The best thing to do is put it on iTunes like normal and just leave it there. For all we know, someone could discover the song years from now and want to purchase it. Unfortunately there's no way to stop anyone from uploading it online unless they are diligent about it and take it down.

Plot twist: Fly is the lead single of her 6th album...

I dont have any expectations for Fly. Avril is sick and probably wont even perform this song live anytime soon. Epic will do no promo and Avril herself wont promote it as well (except for 1-2 tweets). So, it's nice to hear a new song for the fans and maybe as a bonus it will be a charity-song and get her some good reputation. I doubt it will sell a lot..
It's a nice gift to her fans and to the Special Olympics.

Apparently, Rodney replied to a DM talking about Fly... Still subjective, but I personally trust Rodney's judgement and taste
