The radio didn't pick up until the music video. SAIKI could have easily blocked, wasn't SAIKI almost always higher on HDS?
SAIKI would have blocked almost THE ENTIRE TIME. The music video for it went viral similar to Wrecking Ball but not as much. How does nobody remember this
Sit your dumb ass down especially with your retarded avi. wFl has sold over 11 million copies and spent multiple weeks at number 1 in many countries. Goodbye and google
Katy doesn't even have an umbrella sized hit, and that's before digital was huge as it is today.
Only reason why the Rih stans are so eager to defend their fave is because of Rih's floppage lately. It's not 2011 anymore, it's 2013, and Rih is flopping to the end of the charts. So yes, you can go on and keep thinking that WFL is the bigger song when Roar is the bigger radio hit, and is going to sell more. Numbers don't lie.
Personally, I think they were actually equal in size. Both have moderate impact (nothing groundbreaking) and both were huge.
it's kinda of feeling that WFL was bigger in Europe but the rest of the World, Roar wins by far.
Roar is still charting high in many countries.
I hope it will get 7xplatinum in US in long run. 4,000,0000 sales in US in 4 months is not bad at all
Nope,that makes no sense at all.WFL never sold 557K,of course that it would last longer by selling 100K+ than by selling huge amounts in its first few weeks.Roar is easily going to outsell it considering that Katy already has three songs which have outsold it and Roar will join them.WFL was not bigger than Blurred Lines,just because Roar isn't either does not make it a smaller hit than WFL.
It's incorrect!!!! 4 sis
Firework 6,4 M
E.T. 5.6 M
California Girls 5.6 M
Hot &Cold 5.4 M peaked at #3

Too bad my fave had 2 Monster sized hits with barely any promotion, and Urban hit with no promotion and WN which did decent with barely promotion plus the album did good WW with barely any prmotion.
I want to see how Katy pefroms without her weekly perfomances, discounts etc
But it's like saying Roar was as big as Single Ladies/Bad Romance
ROAR is just another Katy Perry HIT! (That why everyone is saying it has been such a non event)
Even if Roar outsells WFL in America, WFL will still be the bigger hit as it was the soundtrack of the time it came out! People like Taylor tried to remake the Grammy award winning video. Be honest Roar will be forgotten in years to come, I don't even see it as a signature song for her.

Roar is bigger than the overrated Single Ladies and it will probably outdo Bad Romance by the end of it's run too, receipts do not lie.
And lord stop over exaggerating WFL, it was not that massive, if anything it was just another Rihanna hit.
