Radio was playing the song, it was being bought. Went Platinum in 7 weeks, which is about the same time frame as her other Platinum singles. The lack of promotion & drive following the release is what killed it. There was all that hype leading up 1.11.11, then after the week ended, it's like the era ended for 2 months.
It's also already sold 1.4 million, so by 2012? I'd say 1.6-1.7 million. The tour might give it some random boosts (like it was Top 400 this past week, now back down to 600s-).

I just meant that in January sales are very poor and from May onwards sales start rising. Even if Radio was playing it, sales are
very weak in January, you know that, and we can see it through the insane decline that takes place after Christmas. The month did play a role in its weak sales, I mean, if it plummeted on iTunes the way it did in December, it would still be selling huge amounts. Right?
It went Platinum in 7 weeks because she had covered 41.1% of it in one week, lol.
