im so sad "Criminal" flopped





it was a risky single choice but i actually thought it was going to smash. she even did UK radio promo

its going to be so close

it did fine in some territories and it peaked in 55 in hot...for a unknown single its good

UK:

1 James Arthur Impossible 1.0000000000
2 will.i.am Scream & Shout (feat. Britney Spears) 1.0000000000

So Close

Where is the next no.1? Uk or Germany?

Britney needs a single that will also sell albums & tour tickets, which is much harder than a Screm & Shout type smash.

It actually did really well for a fourth single, Worldwide.

She needs a "Frozen" kinda song.

She should attempt a ballad first single. It would do fine just because it's her and if it's a really beautiful one it would be a smash.

well i have thought of it.... and i dont know people doesnt expect much from britney now... they want her to make music to dance and have good time its not like they want from her to find the meaning of life ... if they want that they have adele and other singers .... u know if she wants to change direction she must change generaly first of all she has to sing live ....otherwise i dont find how a ''different'' type of music single will help her to sell albums ....
this is my opinion of what general public wants from her..of course i want britney to do something diferent ...

if she is willing to sing it live im here for it

II will flop

a he about to lose me song ( but better ) i think will do fine

Everytime was a huge success, so it should work if it's the right song.

its one of the GREATEST songs ever ..and she was everywhere back then perfoming it ...

True, but everyone would expect a big pop/dance song to be released as Britney's first single, so doing something completely different and unexpected might get people even more interested?

as i said previous .... thats why is brit for.. dance /fun music .... if they want some seriousness they can find it somewhere else ... its like people expecting from adele a club song talking about sex

this is my opinion of what people expect from her not what I expect ....

If I Were A Boy worked for Beyoncé. A Britney ballad would do 10 times better Worldwide.
