I love Stronger but i'm just stating facts. WDKY + Dark Side are the best song's on the album and 4th singles don't perform that well if you look at any of the pop girls so no matter what singles are chosen for 4th and 5th don't expect them to go triple platinum.

AIEW has nothing to do with this discussion so you may take your seat now.

I think there are a number of possible options for 4th single. It could be a Country single: BYOH or SWR. That would definitely do well on Country/HotAC/AC and have some impact on Pop.

IFY/Alone/TWIO. Sure, these are all risky, but just as risky as DS is. I do agree that the album era as a whole is reaching it's peak, but that's only because WDKY completely smashed. I see the rest of this era definitely going down better than the debut and first five months of it!

If the song is good enough and the artist has enough momentum then the 4th single will be able to smash. I still think the general public would eat up both IFY and LMD.

But honestly, if RCA really wants this era to smash harder than Breakaway ever could then there is only one clear option as 4th single imo.

Wait a minute JClark did you really just say Einstein would smash like the Breakaway era? I'm done

It would cross all 3 major formats. Pop/AC/Hot AC and be number 1 on all. The tweens would live, the adults would jam, and Kelly would be back on top. it would be bigger than WDKY and would be number 1 on the Hot 100 for at least 4 weeks.

*sips beer*



Where are the lies?

My album cloud on LastFm. It shows the most plays per album for the last 3 months by size.

And Unbroken pretty big as well


2 artists and 3 albums I wish I wasn't seeing though


Yay 700 pages

[Taigan]

Hahahaha no, but I AM one of those people that think it WOULD do well despite the lyrics, hahaha. Won't touch WDKY. Could've been a great first single to lead into WDKY though

I think it would make a great final single to close out the era with a giant bang.

Can I guess???

Carrie and Rihanna?

Hahahaha

I still think YCW would've been great as a single, but idk why people didn't respond to it as well as I did.

What is with all the lies being spewed about The-Song-That-Must-Not-Be-Named? (The E song)

I'm a STAN and I can't even jam to it. The adults would never

LMD, TWIO, YLM, IFY + TSWR are the only songs left which could become singles.

It's just the truth.

Do you think TSWR would get a chance at being released despite it being a bonus track. I have no idea why it wasn't on the standard tbh...

Stans don't love it because they think its childesh, but non stans like it/ love it.
Just the way it is

[JClarkSTAN]

The Dumb + Dumb line is not even that bad. I've heard worse in pop music. The song ****ing grooves. The chorus is electric. You can't help but wanna nod along to it. The lyrics are smart and clever. The song just pulls you in. Not to mention this song is probably the one Stronger song that sounds almost exactly how Kelly sings live. Its the perfect song that showcases her raw gritty vocals. Its flawless. Ugh, ya'll will stay mad.

It would do great but with an awesome music video... I can imagine this:
Kelly goes to the work... Then a big and stressfull road full of cars... a big bottle neck in the road... Kelly turn on the radio and YCW starts to play and she goes out from the car and everybody shades her who starts to jumping over the cars runing away from many people who shades her (a recent married couple, a gay couple, a top model, a big fat man) also, with special and famous people in the video in the end, kelly shows her middle finger and it will smash

today WDKY is out from the airplay charts in costa rica

This!
People need to get over the fact that the only bad thing in the song is the "Dumb + Dumb = You" part, and as you stated it is not that bad even. Way worse lyrics are used everyday

The song is average. The Dumb + Dumb = You was just the nail in the coffin of it's chances for being a single.

Plus we all know Kelly didn't want the song on the album, the Queen knows the true tea.

But then she added it on tour after so many requests from stans who love it

For single choices:
All the stronger songs>>>>>>>>Einstein=IFY

[Chivas]

Out of all the tracks on Stronger, the only ones I find myself going back to on a regular basis are as follows:

Stronger
Dark Side
You Love Me (the album's standout track imo)
Einstein (I know )
The War Is Over.

These are the five tracks I would show someone if I wanted to show them how great an album this is. I've grown to love Einstein more than I ever thought I would, but I still wouldn't want it released as a single.
