Literally the only reason to rush release Dark Horse tomorrow would be to ensure Katy has two flops in a row. It has been too successful as a promo single, and I stand by my statement that the fact you can't hear Juicy J's ""rap"" in the iTunes preview is resulting in a lot of the songs sales.

Birthday will be the replacement single if they (stupidly) decide to abandon Unconditionally.

OMG I never even realized Juicy J's part was cut out of the iTunes snippet! That's hilarious. You're probably right about the sales thing.

And I agree, it would be stupid to abandon the single now. Everyone suggesting that has to be joking became I don't know how anyone would think that's a good idea.

I can't see Dark horse being a single anymore. it's already doing so so well i can't see it selling more if it's released as a single.

Releasing it with another rapper in Juicy J's place is an option, if they decide to release it as an official single at some point.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the highest the song has ever been on the US iTunes list?

[Bliss]

Yay! New iTunes peak

[Katy V.!]

Promote everywhere for the rest of the year. And then start again the era next year.

[Bliss]

Just watched the performance. What kind of iconic exit?

[Ramcoro]

Dark Horse is getting a lot of AirPlay in Indiana, which is probably responsible for most of its sales.

If its released as a single, then the other 49 states will start stanning for it too. But let that happen in January. No need to kill off unconditionally now. Let it have some success.

[heartbeats]

I knew she's gonna get **** for dressing up as japanese and using the japanese concept

[Ger-55]

I'm actually worried, but whatever, the song is a gem

[ToxicKat]

The only way this will enter the Top 10 is if she performs it on The Voice.

#1 is out of the question now but man, she should have released the video this week.

Ugh, I don't know why they don't get her on The Voice. I know she's not the greatest singer but even Justin Bieber performed there so I don't see why Katy can't.

Some songs completely blew up, like Say Something, Timber, and 1D, and this gained 2%, lol. She really needs to take singing lessons, cuz as a complete stan is embarrassing. They better cancel Unconditionally at the Grammy's and perform the 3rd single instead. Lets hope they don't screw that up, too. Just really disappointed at the turnout of this. The vocals have got to change.

[Monster Megamind]

That's because katy and Gaga labels have deals with fox channel

[Sadie Saxton]

Can we at least wait until if it hits the top 10 to worry? The other songs that got ridiculous updates from it are in the top 10. Let's see if it will propel there and if not, then all of you worrying about a song of hers not being top 3 can go have a meltdown.

I agree with this!

She NEEDS a new vocal coach. Seriously.

10. Unconditionally

iTunes Philippines

[Melquiades]

It wont hit 10. Releasing Uncle instead of Horse has been Katy´s worst mistake in her whole career.

[Bryan]

The performance was beautiful. All the visuals and colors were really amazing. Her Vocals were decent, could have been better or changed in several parts though. Overall, the performance was really well done. Not the best (Vocally) but nowhere near her worse. Hopefully this enters top ten on iTunes soon.

*She should have just ended the performance with a bunch of owls dressed up flying around dropping iTunes gift cards that is only valid for purchases of "Unconditionally" only. That would have gotten her some more sales.

That's a bit extreme, don't you think?

She released the single because it's her favorite song from the record. She's already stated that she not trying to repeat TD's success, so if it misses out on going #1, then it misses out. I'm sure she's not crying over it or losing sleep.

I don't think "releasing the wrong single" could be classified as making the worst mistake in someone's career. It isn't like she released a largely polarizing record with much controversy.

[Blood Orange Sun]

I think they should scrap PRISM and send her to the recording studio ASAP.
