Nah, E.T. was promoted terribly. One performance and a few posters? It's amazing it achieved the success it actually got.

Imagine how big it could've been if it got Firework levels of promotion. It isn't that far behind Firework on sales and wasn't it bigger on US radio? it definitely got the most spins in one week or something like that.

Would've made a monster 2nd single (with Teenage Dream as single #1) anyway.

ET & TD would have been great first and second singles.

I bet first week sales for the album would have been a lot higher. One or both of them could have debuted at #1. ET would probably be well beyond 6 million. Plus, ET would have had the benifit of still being relevant around Christmas.

My ideal era would have went like this

Singles

1. Teenage Dream
2. E.T FEAT KANYE WEST (I'd still like a solo version too)
3. Firework
4. Dressin' Up
5. California Gurls (have the Snoop Dogg be the remix, and a solo on the album a la E.T.)
6. Last Friday Night

Re-release

1. Wide Awake

the thing with E.T is that it was extremely local She should've performed it at least in UK
Edit: Y'all with not shade CG It was the greatest single choice that Capitol could ever make We wouldn't have such a great era if it wasn't for CG. (I hate it now but whatever)

I like the original version of E.T. better.

Considering it was a 4th single and it had no promo outside the US, I think it did very well.

I agree a UK performance should have happened.

I know. I did say she should release a solo too far adult radio.

that's what I meant Kinda...

The lack of promotion wasn't a problem in the US because Kanye is a big name, but that isn't the case overseas. (Where the solo version was actually "bigger")

I hate CG but I agree

California Gurls got annoying after a while

[Ramcoro]

Yea, but CG video (& LFN) is worth it being a single.

[Ramcoro]

Who's bigger Kanye or Snoop Dogg?

This decade, Kanye. But Snoop career is far more impressive.
