Her last single (Somebody to Love) had the same problem. Her song titles are recycled. When this happens, I honestly lose interest in the song.

Titles have no effect on a songs run.
We had two "Come Back to Me"s (David Cook & Utada) charting at the same about a year or so ago, and they both did about the same on pop. David Cook's did better on Hot AC, though, and Utada's did better on rhythmic. Not to mention Vanessa Hudgens and Janet Jackson both had hits with that title.
"Somebody to Love" just didn't get exposure. The Z100 add was weird. They didn't play it very often, and the add came in December just before the Holiday Freeze. There was no promo on television for it either. Also, "Somebody to Love" isn't a unique title. Yes Queen has song called "Somebody to Love," but it's not like it's 100% original title.
Bad Romance, Telephone, Meet Me Halfway, I Gotta Feeling, See You Again, One Time, and so many other recent hits have unoriginal titles. It's the song that counts, not a title.
By the way, is this song good? I haven't heard it yet.
