I don't see it achieving great success for Bey's standards, unfortunately. It can do moderately well or even underperform. I love love love this album though.

Stupid question
She is BEYONCE its BEYONCE
You dont need to care about that

im sorry sis but this is her first single from this album. Remember " Born This Way, Only Girl In The World, California Gurls, Rolling In The Deep, Hold It Against Me "

And i think it'll flop.

Yes.
Barely top ten in four countries.

33 - 48 - 65 - 76 - 50 - 29 - 55

Only two weeks in the top forty. I wouldn't even call it an "underperforming single".

And since when these charts became relevant?

Not really.

i think the album will underperform. good thing the release is at 28th they can put out more single. but the bad thing is it leaked early. but i dont think anyone downloaded the leaks more than ppl did with FF and BTW. so let's see.

Well I won't be buying it.

This new beyonce album Sucks IMO It will flop the first single was a mayor flop at least NMT was the most added song to radio EVER!! even tho they boycotted it after.
Anyhow she will move on it happens

Top 25 in more than 10 countries, including the US. 1.375 million copies sold worldwide.

I think yes. Because I've seen so many posts saying there's many slow songs in it. It's funny because that's what made me like the album compared to her previous. It will be successful but probably won't see the same success as her other albums.

The only thing that's flopping is your thread....

yes

I think we're looking at 300k + in the US first week
100k+ in the UK, because she has Glasto which is massive

everywhere else might be a problem.

I voted NO because her name alone sells records. This album will be HER lowest selling one though.

It might just because the tracks are a lot different than what we hear today. But this album is definitely for people who are tired of hearing most dance pop today. Too bad there is not too many of those people. I really hope it will get as least 3,000,000 copies.

:nod:

I dont get why everyone is calling him/her pressed, like...he does have a point. Run the world flopped, Best thing I never had is not doing much yet. Unlike most of us, the general public is definitely not feeling the sound she's going to with this album, and i understand why, It's too non-commercial. It's possible that her album will underperform or flop.
Anyways back on topic, I agree with the person who said it wont completely flop because she'll promote the hell out of it.

Great music but its not marketable and her promo has sucked thus far.

I had someone ask me how do I have an advanced copy of her new CD yesterday. They didnt even know she had an album coming out.

Likely, I hope not though.

Best Thing I Never Had is not flopping... How can it be? It's taking off on US radio and not even released ww yet.

no...
