Am I just bad at this now? What am I doing wrong?

Possibly. I published it at midnight. YouTube says publish time doesn't affect long term performance but i have my doubts. Maybe the song just isn't as good as I thought it was. I feel like getting my hopes up for songs is a waste of energy. I should assume everything I make will be a failure so I can never be disappointed.

Oh Charli, I'm sorry 😞. You're not bad at this. Maybe it's just a release timing issue? Idk, I was bad at this. You are not. ❀️❀️❀️

Oh. This is weird. I'm following and subscribed but I didn't even get a notification of the video! And my YouTube home page isn't showing them to me.

Charli Morgan

Well I guess that'll teach me not to do a week-long wait for a premier. Ugh. Another song that won't be heard by more than a few thousand people. This is really disheartening.

Charli Morgan

I thought this song was gonna do well but it's not and I feel like it's because the song isn't as good as I thought. I feel like an idiot for getting my hopes up.

My wife woke up and told her that you put a new song up. She didn't get a notification either! God that sucks

David Pogin

I don't use YouTube music but my wife does and she allows is following Charli but she hasn't gotten a notif on YouTube music ... :/

Charli Morgan

I didn't get a notification either :( Wth Google.

We shouldn't beat ourselves up for the terrible crime of... ... *checks notes* ... ... *double takes* ... Says here "optimism"? That doesn't sound right. Anywho, Algo is a cruel and capricious god. Folks weren't getting notifications, I certainly didn't, so I don't reckon this is about the quality of your music at all.

If it's an issue of fewer people watching, then it's not a matter of the song not being good. It's an issue of it not reaching people. If people aren't seeing it, they aren't hearing it, so they have no reason to avoid watching. I didn't get a notification for it. I just happened to be going through your channel and found it. So pretty sure it's just youtube being an ass like usual.

Aruganis

I also noticed the songs you did premiers for appear in my recommendations far, far more often than the ones that didn't get premiers. So maybe that could might be part of it?

Charli Morgan

I think you're maybe right about premiers being important. At least for me. Oh well :/ I'm gonna go cry about it 😭

Aruganis

πŸͺHave a cookie to cheer yourself up. It's a damn good song. Blame youtube for being an ass.

Charli Morgan

I'm so glad I don't rely on YouTube to make money or I would be in a lot of trouble right now. Thank you for being here! 😭😭😭

Aruganis

I stand by what I said in the past, you make damn good music, and you're not gunna get rid of us that easily. Even if I'm not active in the comments, I will be here lurking and enjoying the music and poems for a long time. And I'm absolutely sure that goes for a LOT of people here.

I feel like the subject matter is far enough outside your niche audience it's not attracting the same attention. It could also be the YouTube algorithm is just not showing it to people for whatever reason. Keep calm, stay strong, and shine on you crazy diamond.

I didn't get a notification at all either. However I happened to be in YouTube and went to your channel (as I do frequently), and noticed a new song had been released 3 hrs earlier.

ZaChan

YouTube is being a mean bully. I really enjoyed the song and the sketch/drawing animation was fantastic πŸ‘Œ It was beautifully put together πŸ’™

Charli Morgan

Thank you πŸ₯Ή I need kind words right now

David Pogin

Still no notification. But I've got the song on repeat. Also kinda staring off into the void cause line "Make me look so perty that I no longer hate me" hit me like a truck lol

Charli Morgan

I'm glad I hit you with my truck 🀍πŸ₯°
