Of course we would like for this song to be doing better, but the reality is that an underperforming single isn't gonna phase Bey's album sales as much as it would others'. & THAT'S why some of us aren't worried

Are you seriously bringing up a 3rd and 4th single to compare?

As for "Only Girl", i'm not a Rihanna stan, so I can't give exact info on that.

I'm just proving that a single doesn't need to go #1 in its first weeks to become huge.

Well, it stayed weeks before it went #1, because of a discount.

When I say that most people are stupid, THIS is what I'm talking about. They're clinging to false hope - just as they did with the IASF era. They also can't stand the fact that B is getting more press by gallivanting around Paris, than their faves have all month long.

It should be fun when Bey releases the video and starts promoting. I'm already bookmarking posts about Girls (and Judas).

Rumour has it that she will be preforming @ the royal wedding reception.

Right, Adele...a UK artist trying to crack the US market....that's someone on her sophomore CD, not the "Queen" -- the baddest bitch in the game, a member of the Pop Trinity and someone who has been around for longer than a decade.

Just saying, I don't care either way. I'm here for the CD, not this single.

Just make sure you are still here when the promo begins.

I will be boo.

If anyone can save this song with promotion and a video, it's Bey -- I'm just skeptic. I don't think the song was strong enough for a lead single.

It's better not to play their game. See the comment after yours.
They just keep coming back for more!

And... to the member that reported me... Thanks
I can see how pressed you are.

Maybe Beyonce should drop her single price to 99 cent

Reminds me of this scene in Not Another Teen Movie where these guys burst into a hospital with a friend who needs immediate dire medical attention, and they holler at this black nurse who is walking buy to please help their friend, and she gives a dismissing wave of her hand and says "I'm on my break," and keeps walking right by.

Don't worry, I can cure the confusion for you.
RTW sounds like nothing on the market right now, NOTHING. Ive never heard a single such as this w/ someone singing & rapping at the same time, being able to keep a balance in between the aggressiveness & the softly sung vocals in the hook. This song is hard & cocky, yet it is relying a positive message to women of all races & ages, about being able to hold your own & accomplish success w/out the help of a man. Being I N D E P E N D E N T.

This song is a mix of R&B, slightly POPish, w/ a mix of hiphop & Reggae.... Who else is doing this right now? Beyonce did not take the safe route w/ techno beats & auto tuned to death songs as her peers are doing, she chose to be different. If any other artist would have tried to do this song, it wouldn't even made it into the top 100 sweetie.
Got it now?
