Uh. Single Ladies wasn't on iTunes until the album was released and it sped up to #1 that night.

It already has been performed is my point, it wasnt just a single sitting there to be bought because it was a nice song.

I won't even begin with you, especially since you said Single Ladies would be a huge flop.

Do I need to grab the receipts?

Sis, after going thru the POP radio request list, the only thing you want to DRAG is your feet to bed.

Ch...I was praising you

But I agree with Sats, One High Profile Perfomance and it's done

[Yahhh!]

All these #s, percentages, chart histories, request links and regional twitter accounts are nice, but what about the song? Do you guys like it? How does it stack up against Crazy In Love? Deja Vu? Single Ladies?

Ummm no the **** it didnt, If I Were A Boy was the song that flew to number 1 on iTunes. Single Ladies was released October 8, 2008 and didn't top the Hot 100 until December 2008, it didnt do super well on iTunes until after the AMA performance sent it boosting +350k.

I didn't mean the day the song was released as in leaked and sent to radio, I mean the day the song was released to iTunes. It hit #1 the same day.

And the AMA performance only boosted it to 227k.....not 350k. lmfao.

Single Ladies first 3 sales week went like this:

204k (#1 digital, #2 Hot 100)
227k (#1 digital, #1 Hot 100, AMA performance boost)
159k (#1 Hot 100, #2 digital)

It was held back for about 4 weeks before iTunes release, but that was common practice back then. Just like how releasing songs immediately to iTunes has become common practice nowadays.

This start is very dissapointing no matter how you try to spin it. I can only pray the video/performance fixes this.

I cant make a fair judgement because I need time with this song. I tend to be super judgmental and either overrate or underrate songs like most people do when there is an aura surrounding it. Ask me this 6 months to a year from now and I can answer it honestly.

But for now Deja Vu > Crazy In Love > Single Ladies.

And the fourth week which I speak of went like this so girl dont try me when I know these sales like the back of my hand.

"In its fourth week, the song saw an increase in number of digital downloads by 157 percent, selling 382,000 units, which represented its best week of digital sales."

And that start is not disappointing because IIWAB opened with 190,000 downloads, you DO NOT know how much Girls has sold yet so girl kaboom! And as far as Single Ladies goes it was performed MULTIPLE times before it was sent to iTunes so of course it was gonna **** easily because people were familiar with it. Run Teh World (Girls) hasnt even been sent to radio yet let alone been out for a whole week so underperform where ms gerl? TELL ME THAT! And....

[Jennifer]

For me, it's:

Deja Vu > Crazy In Love >>>>>>Run The World (Girls)>>>>>>> If I Were A Boy >> Single Ladies

No, we all hate it, that's why we rated it 1 star on iChunes.

Everyone knew the song already. It had over 2/3 weeks of airplay already...

LOL. I know sales real well. That 382k was CHRISTMAS week. Everyone sold 300-400k. GaGa sold 420k. It wasn't because of the AMA performance. You said something that was wrong and now you're trying to turn it into something its not. Just sit down.

We don't know how much Girls sold but I can bet you it won't be good. Less than 100k, that's for sure.

You are clearly pressed and butt hurt over the fact that this song is underperforming. Go request or something.

I would put IIWAB in the position of SL, but I agree with the rest
