I don't even get it, Who's That Boy is a really good song actually, and it's pretty mainstream...
I remember I used to dislike it at the beginning, but now it's my third most played song after Unbroken and Skyscraper. I think it's just a grower, it probably doesn't make a huge impression the first time you listen to it...

If Z100, KIIS FM will add the song in 2-3weeks, it will be easily. (LYLALS wasnt added, that is the reason why it took so long to reach TOP40, TOP30, TOP20 the song...).
SO radios taste is so unpredictable. I was so sure, that at least KIIS FM would be add LYLALS in the first month, but it wastn happened. So who knows?

The reason why Z100 played Skyscraper is because her fans requested it hard on Twitter or do you actually think they would play a ballad by themselves in the summer? we BARELY got it played a lot there.

Yeah, like all Demi's singles/albums . Apart from Skyscraper, it was acceptable there. But they messed up everything for her. I bet they don't even have plans for it yet. Or wait, maybe they WON'T even plan anything, no promotion. Only a video, like idk, maybe it's fun for them to give all their attention to Selena and basically ignore Demi. Demi was never that relevant for them, I bet they're scared that she's gonna grow out of Disney thanks to her talent, so they're trying to screw everything up. Even this year, Selena was the #1 for them, and the WORST is that Joe Jonas was basically their #2. This is sad.

Negative to the nth degree. Not only is HR not ignoring Demi for Selena, Selena doesn't even get THAT much support.

Not for Britney's last single Criminal.
The single also has to resonate with the audience listening to the song.

Yup that was being negative.
Selena's singles went to radio because she was actually marketable.

LOL, you do know radios didn't play it because it wasn't dance right? it was kind of like a....ballad..... KIND OF.......
and radio did help it, that's why it was in top 60 for a while.

You are aware that Criminal peaked at #19 on radio right?
Top 60 is not a lot of sales by any stretch of the imagination. The video didn't help much either.

Yes it was because of it being her "comeback" single from her troubled year.

yes, i know, that LOVATICS are very crazy obsessed fan group!  We are just lazy, if we need to request Sel's song But lucky for us, the radios like a little her songs.
Yes, something began with this Demi era by the radios. As you told, this leadsingle was her first TOP40 hit on the radios. That is a big deal, so for a next step she (HER MANAGEMENT) must have to reach, that her 2.single will be spinning by more and more radios.... and not just wait to HWR.
Ok i understand that HWT decide that whose songs are sending, and when are sending to the radios, but i dont believe,that Demi's management cant make pressure to the HWR to the something, and this isnt the fans' job.

Top 60 on iTunes lol but most of the time it was top 50.
and exactly, that's why it was holding still on iTunes, because of radio!

Peaking at 8.210 isn't marketable, don't use the "rehab" excuse for EVERYTHING she did this year, she has fans who requested and promoted.

Sadly with HWR it is our job. It's the fans job to harass them and make sure they're doing their job and sending the songs to radios.

If they want WTB to be successful and huge, they will.

Yes it was marketable, people just weren't here for Demi singing that song. If it were Rihanna, it would have been top 15 easily.
Also her sales definitely show that some audience felt for the song.
