Not one damn person I only mentioned how many ballads are in the top 100. At least they tried.

Extremely incorrect The song is going to perform well when it takes off on radio. The fact that Z100 added it 4 weeks in advance is a sign its going to be a monster on radio and itunes will follow in conjunction with performances, Nivea campaign and further video exposure.

The only songs that have big effects & shoot into the Top 20/10 & stay there are songs that are already charting digitally & have airplay/have passed their add date. CKB had none of that, except for one performance on an award show that was not even her audience. When it was performed, it was still an unknown album track to the general public. And the performances didn't change that. The purpose of the performances was to prepare it for official release.

And there we have the final conclusion. The fact that it jumped from 800's to top 35 on itunes , is surely a good sign. Rockstar 101.....ummm....yeah.
Ignore the AI performance, the video alone should have sent it to the top 100.
The label obviously doesn't have huge plans of the song.
It hasn't even been sent to radio, but the video's been released for about a week.
and it's being released jointly with Man Down.
I think the biggest reason why they're releasing it already is because Nivea's already releasing their campaign. If they had more time, I'm sure the situation would be different.
And videos don't always have a huge effect. The Judas video did basically nothing for the song's performance.
2. Give Me Everything (feat. Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer) - Pitbull
3. The Edge of Glory - Lady GaGa
5. Dirty Dancer (with Usher) [feat. Lil Wayne] - Enrique Iglesias
6. E.T. (feat. Kanye West) - Katy Perry
11. Party Rock Anthem (feat. Lauren Bennett & GoonRock) - LMFAO
37. Firework - Katy Perry
39. E.T. - Katy Perry
87. I Gotta Feeling - The Black Eyed Peas
Judas jumped up more than 10 spots on iTunes after the video came out. But it tumbled down as TEOG was released.
Yes, but it stayed pretty idle after it got up to around 11-10. And I didn't see it going up further than that. CKB has gone up about 300 spots, and is still steadily increasing.

True. I just wish they didn't rush released TEOG, Judas could've done a little better, but that's ok, I like TEOG more now.
California King Bed is my favorite song of the year and I think it deserves to be the SUMMER SMASH of the year.

Yeah, I was very surprised by Judas' performance also, and I do think it could've reached a new peak without the rush release of TEOG. I really like the first 3ish minutes of TEOG a lot more than Judas, but then after that, I get really bored. Anyway, since they did rush so much to release TEOG. I hope it makes up for Judas' performance.
I really like it too. And while I don't see it reaching the top spot. I can always dream. hahahah.
I'm excited for what the next few weeks has in store for both CKB and Man Down.

So i am going to start disliking it pretty soon but oh well.
