So is this confirmed as the next single for the US?? I really like this song and I love will.i.am's verse. everyone seems to hate it though...

I love it too, when the song breaks down it's great, dunno why people here hate it.

I can see the only thing makes people hate it is that this song is nothing different from other Will.I.Am's products, thus Rihanna sounds unbelievably like Fergie, which is not so good.

Except from that, Photographs is a potential 7th No.1 for Rihanna in good circumstances.

...I looked through Universal Music and Def Jam site, nothing about Photographs being the next single.

Excuse me....

Where Im going I dont need my breaks.
Cant wait to see your face.
When your front windows break and I come crushing through.

I just wanna set you on fire so I dont have to burn alone.

I didnt do it you lit the match for me
Now we are flying from the blast bavy

Baby we were killin' em,
They couldnt handle the millionth degree

We were criminals,
As we were burning,
the world called the police, fire department, ambulance

You can call me crazy 'cause I believe
The only move for me and you
Is to go out blazing

THOSE LIRYCS ARE JUST SIMPLY PERFECT

It was already confirmed about a month ago by a Universal insider. As of right now, It IS the next UK single. This member (on a different music forum) has posted many exclusives before. The most recent was the announcement of a new Saturdays single coming this July called "My Love"

YES! #2 here we come!

Te Amo next in Europe, then have Fire Bomb in the US. Oh well. I hope that Photographs does well in the US...even though I SERIOUSLY doubt it.

SMASH!

Fire Bomb & Te Amo next plz.

Um... ok.

But, Te Amo would be a smash. She needs to make it the 5th and final single. (Yes, some good songs get ripped off, but it's the luck of the draw.)

The song is good until Will.I.Am comes and RUINS it, so... Yuck. I hope it becomes her biggest flop to date so they scrap it in a month and release 'Fire Bomb'.

i need to see a definite source for I believe this.

Coming for those white girls wigs, I see. This sounds like airplay candy.

I can't picture Te Amo or Rockstar 101 being released as singles (love them both though!). If Photographs is indeed next, Fire Bomb will probably be the 5th single if they release that many.

Yeah they going with her favorite then fan favorites. When Te Amo/Rockstar 101 ARE MINE.

I even had a dream of how all the singles would work out; Photographs (UK/WW), Rockstar 101 (US) -- for the SUMMER. Then after these do incredibly well, she can do Photographs (US), Te Amo (UK/WW) and finally release that song everyone seems to be addicted to, including me: Bomb!

I love it if all those enormously potential songs get released, but I seriously hate it if she were to do double singles. Just look at Hard, if it were released WW, I believe it'd have been BIGger! Sometimes, the hype built across the globe makes a song explode!

Don't forget DSTM, it were released outside US(in certain countries) as the 2nd single..by the time it hit US, the hype was fading away. That could have been an easy #1 for Riri...

If either Photographs or Te Amo explodes WW, her chances to get them #1s in US would be as disappointing as what DSTM had.
