Basically, this thread was made to give the reason behind a few songs underperformance.
For eg. Energy would've smash if it was sung by Kween Rihanna; that song was too good to flop I just don't get it, thinking about it I wonder if Rihanna has the vocals though. Oh well.
Also, Man Down would've smash if it was the lead single on LOUD; thats just my opinion, even though OG was the right choice, but for a single of that sort I think it needed promo that lead single received for it to take off.
TEOG would have smashed if she had only kept to the tragic mermaid video. It was in the top 15 before the video came along and even with that being so boring it managed to climb up to about #6. Plus the other promo's for TEOG wouldn't have been so boring if the video had been better (to keep with the theme).
