Mmmm regular Chicken Sandwich with Polynesian sauce.....*Drools*

If the song is catchy/good it will sell, I Knew You Were Trouble is at #11 on iTunes while Little Things is at #70

Little things needs to be LOWER.

Then explain why all the singles from 4 flopped.
Some of the best songs released in that year (Countdown) flopped.

Of course....but it the sales WOULD have been 500k more or so....could easily cost someone a #1. Taylor in particular I think will have a VERY hard time getting atop the hot 100 because of her sales.....its possible...just harder.
Not much you can do about it though lol.

did anyone hear the new alphabeat that came out this summer?
less of a singles record than their last one, much more consistent even if it lacks the huge highlights. it's a shame i missed it cos it's total summer pop, really infectious
the boy gets cuter every record. i love the band's style
listen to vacation ! !

I'm sorry, but Countdown is a terrible song. Just a bipolar mess.
It was a wannabe Upgrade U. To this day I'm surprised so many people expected it to smash.
I've never heard of Alphabeat. I'll have to check it out.
More than The Re-Up.

Lets not okay. Countdown, Party, End of Time, Schoolin' Life, and more. The fact that Countdown didn't slay the singles charts is such a shame.
You tried but The Re-Up contains VVV, Whip It, Starships, Beez In The Trap, and Pound The Alarm
And I'm kidding I use some of 4
GOOD FUCKING BYE
But did I lie?
Countdown has, like, NO focus. Just a bunch of shit thrown at a wall to the beat of drums.

I can't disagree with that, but I still love it.
YES
1) Countdown is one of the best songs in her discography. Everybody know dis. An eclectic pop masterpiece.
In fact, 4 contains most of her best songs compared to the rest of ha alberms.
2) Where on earth do you get off comparing Countdown to Upgrade U? They sound completely different.
RT and I don't even like Beyonce
According to HDD's predictions for this week
Alicia Keys (RCA) 150-160k
Rod Stewart "Merry Christmas Baby" (Verve) 130-140k
Taylor Swift (Big Machine) 120-130k
Phillip Phillips (19/Interscope) 80-85k
One Direction (Syco/Columbia) 75-80k
Rihanna (Def Jam/IDJ) 70-75k
and there she falls
She got her #1 tho
Loud lacked any flaws and went on to sell 1.7 million, so idk. It will go platinum like the rest of her albums. Rih is so consistently selling albums and singles.
1) Pretty much all of Dangerously in Love says hi.
2) Eh, for me she has a similar cadence in both songs.
1 million US, almost 3 million WW I think. She'll probably be able to outdo that.

Oh Platinum is a given. But given it's higher than usual first week and already smash single, I would think that expecting it to at least sell better than TTT and Rated R (both ~1 mil) isn't unreasonable. At least something like 1.2-1.4 mil. I suppose it depend upon the success of the follow up singles. TTT era singles were kind of a mess, so I'm sure her label hopes to replicate the Loud era single success.

That may be why I dislike it so.
Get off my fone. That's just for a limited re-release cover. Don't be a surfboard around here.

Everything on 4 slays except Run The World.

That is messy, and crazy like Roman himself. It makes sense if you know Nicki.
