I was trying to draw a comparison with someone who is commonly referred to as a singles artists to someone who is actually a singles artist. I understand if you're pressed you can't see clearly, so I digress.

lol, why do people always think I'm serious? I should lay the sarcasm on thicker, tbh

I think people call rihanna a singles artist because you would expect her albums to sell a lot more than they do considering how popular she is and how almost everything she releases is a hit somewhere.

Kyon is just pressed because he's worried about his fave.

Important day for Britney coming up as the fall season is about to start. He knows that he will be stanning hard and fighting with xtina stans as the Noise starts.

Whistle in number 1 on the US iTunes charts.

for some reason, Flo Rida is effortlessly slaying.

I guess his new dance pop thing is working (well half working because no one even knew he released an album a couple of weeks ago. I just found out now)

like I said in a thread a few months ago. Flo Rida is very smart when it comes to choosing singles. Right Round with Ke$ha was everything tbh

Omg and Club Cant Handle Me was just>>>>>
Click to expand...

Club Can't Handle Me is IMHO the greatest pop song of all time, and Wild Ones is life-giving and the best single of 2011 after Godney's Till The World Ends.

But Whistle is just an atrocity.

Katy might get another #1 next week if it continues to slay the digital sales and gets these kinds of updates repeatedly. P!nk will definitely own at some point too and No Doubt continues getting great updates, tho the rolling effect might slow it down tomorrow. I still dont think it will be a hit tbh.

WHYB has peaked :,( It got a -5M update a few days ago. lol time for a new single in about a month or so. Or just wait it out til' 2013.

Also: How is Payphone doing so well? Easily the weakest Maroon 5 single ever released.

IKR it's a hideous song. And it's also their biggest hit ever
okIAQ.gif


Anyway it's due to several factors, including that M5 is undergoing a rebirth of sorts in terms of top 40 popularity as well as having a high profile rapper on it, ensuring cross-format plays. They've never had that and it seems to pay off. Whatever their next single is they will probably release no1curr remixes with guest spots for it.

What are we banking on the next number one? I think Call Me Maybe finally will lose some steam soon...Payphone?
Click to expand...

No Payphone is #16 on itunes. It will never reach #1 with those digital sales.

Call Me Maybe will be #1 this week for sure. Next week it'll be a toss off between her and Katy, Im giving a slight edge to Katy given her strong digital sales, coupled with her airplay rise.

In the next few months, overlooking any new releases, we might be looking at a Florida domination with Whistle. There's also a really strong showing by P!nk if the promo is tight.

So depressing that the best song on that the list is at the very bottom ;_;

<3 Runaways
Click to expand...

I love The Killers but Runaways, though it's very good, it's not their finest first single showing. All their lead singles have been flawless (Mr. Brightside, When You Were Young, Human... what kind of FLAWLESS LEADS). Runaways plays like a hybrid of all their eras.

That being said, I suddenly have an URGE to pop in the HOT FUSS cd and reminisce about my teenage years :D

Small correction: Mr. Brightside was not the lead single off Hot Fuss, the flaw-free Somebody Told Me was.

True dat.

HOT FUSS was like the equivalent of a Teenage Dream era in the rock format. A flawless slaying was delivered on all fronts. I dont think there's ever been such a strong era (in terms of singles) by any other rockband ever since? I mean Kings of Leon had a good one with Only by the Night but nowhere near as flawless as Hot Fuss.

There's also this duet between the Ultimate Queen of All American Idol Winners&#8482; and one of the Australian ones.

And Kylie and Dannii are Australian as well of course!

Isn't Heavy Metal Lover just one of the best songs you've ever heard? ;_;

I could be your girl,
Girl, girl, girl, girl, girl
But would you love me
If I ruled the world, world, world.

It kind of gives me Goldfrapp teas, but for some reason the song has really bonded with me recently. Maybe seeing it live

It's probably my fave GaGa song *.*

The song she "previewed" for fans sounds like a Bouncier HML tbh. I'd be here for that.
