This song is coming right off the heels of one of her current hits from her last album and had no hype or promo upon release, it was basically non existent and present on iTunes the next week. Rihanna's key is LONGEVITY and I will say it till I'm blue in the face. DSTM peaked at #3 but is arguably bigger than a lot of her #1's, whether WFL goes #1 or not is irrelevant but if it has longevity on the charts then you know it's a hit and most of the general public aren't familiar with the song yet, just chart nuts and digital freaks so relax. This song is a H-I-T! And this era will be great.

there is a huge banner on itunes, twitter and facebook campaign, rihanna is tweeting about it all the time. That makes for 45 millions +7 millions of people potentially aware of the song.
First singles have to hit #1 for an artist of the caliber and fame of Rihanna.
I am disappointed in this.
