Excuses. Urban was still very successful on pop radio in 2006. But you just proved my point. Beyonce is flopping with a less poppy single, so expect her to release one soon.

Those songs were bigger on the R&B charts, but the pop charts were not having it. It's sad because "Deja Vu" and "Ring the Alarm" are among Beyonce's best singles.
Who said Born this Way flopped ???
BTW certainly has longetivity and catchy.
It just has different trend from her previous single. (peak fast,fall fast but still hold on while falling)
Well, the stats show differently:
#1 for 6 weeks (the first song in over a decade to stay @ #1 for 6 weeks after debuting there and is GaGa's longest running #1 single)
Double Platinum
Still in the top 20
Many can argue that "Judas" is flopping, but it would be a baseless argument to say that "Born This Way" flopped.
