You can hear Maroon 5's new single already!?
Does anyone know how much Wild Ones has sold?

Careful what you say, Rihanna fans will come after you

Wiz Khalifa's on it... and he's one of the more popular rappers out there right now.
I'm pretty sure this will make it to number two behind Gotye.

It will because of The Voice, but if the song was really good it would reach #1, Adam is very popular right now. Wiz Khalifa might save it

From last weeks Hot 100 sales:
8. Flo Rida f/ Sia, "Wild Ones" (198,000) (1,342,000)
I know it's going triple platinum by June.

I'm just saying that no matter how bad it is, the artists' popularities will at least save the song from falling flat on its first week.
I'm worried about Nelly's single, because her song with K'Naan has done absolutely nothing on iTunes. Pity, because it's a great song that is very relateable. And it's discounted for 69 cents too...

I can't believe it's been ~5 years since Nelly made impact. I'm hoping her single sees at least moderate success until she gets promo going.

Well, the last album she did was a Portuguese/Spanish one, so it wouldn't have made an impact...
Still, she had all the momentum in the world back then, and now it seems she's starting from scratch.

Way to take all of the complexity out of an entire field.
Let's drop the price of everything to $.01!

Maroon 5 flopping with a first single is like saying Adele's next album will sell less than 1 million copies.
Not even Misery flopped, & at that time their hype was way down.

Payphone is not THAT bad, it's poorly creative, auto-tunned, unoriginal but it's catchy
But if Maroon 5 is going on this pop way, I won't be here so much for them, they wouldn't be like a band, just Adam Levine
I don't think it will flop, I have a feeling it will give us a surprise
@MusicTalker what's your opinion about that single?
It will be such an incredible week, Linkin Park, Maroon 5, Nelly Furtado, what else?

He's right though. It isn't terrible, but the snippet isn't really exciting like "Moves Like Jagger" was, and there doesn't seem to be much to it lyrically like "She Will Be Loved"... It's just... catchy like "Little Of Your Time"

It's extremely radio friendly but not their best. I can see it doing really well.

I have a theory:
Maroon 5 and more speciffically, Adam Levine, enjoyed his sucess, big big sucess with those pop songs, different to what they were offering in the past (Stereo Hearts and Moves Like Jagger) and he decided to continue realesing those types of comercial songs to sell copies and gain money
Talking about money, I wish Adele could gift to me some money That bitch should live like she wants
