Discount would be fine, but it's done fine on its own. There's no need to panic when Rihanna has added another top 10 to her discography.

WHYB has peaked in sales. At least it will go platinum. I think the video was released way to early, but I don't really understand why her sales for this song isn't exploding. It is a surefire hit, but I guess, the single was released too late. But then again, look at Katy Perry, all of her singles, no matter how late they were released, they were digital monsters. I think Rihanna has lost alot of interest, with the remix w/ BC and etc. Her style is over sexualized and it needs to be toned down some, if she wants to continue to get #1s and etc.. I think her new direction for her new album will be EXCELLENT. So I guess, bye bye to WHYB in the Top 10

MTE

And fun needs sit down, they had their time trying to get the song of the year

Does everybody think #8 will be Where Have You Been's peak on the Hot 100, or do you think the fact that airplay and streaming are still increasing will get it a higher peak?

I don't really care though. The truth of the matter is, Where Have You Been just sounds so uninteresting on the radio when it's played in amongst songs like Somebody That I Used to Know and We Are Young.

Funnily enough, this actually happened yesterday and I do agree. I don't find WHYB generic but when it was used as a filler between those two tracks it just sounded stale.

#8 Will most likely be it's peak position. I for one thought that it's sales would explode but I guess not.

Yes. Where it should be.

[TOASTY]

i guess top 10 is a fine way to go out with WHYB...i still think it has a chance of catching a second wind (so long as it can remain on the top of the top 10 on itunes...if it falls out I feel like it'll free-fall.

I would've liked to see it go top 5 hot 100...but you can't win em all!

Now it's time for me to stan for the good sis mercy b.c it's looking like it's finally climbing on itunes!


EDIT: OOP IT dropped 3 spots since I last checked...

I think about Where Have You Been, some people might find this thread from April interesting. And in particular, this post that I made:

Yes. I've been saying this for a while, but electropop is clearly dieing out.

I reckon alternative music, and also hip hop, RnB and indie will make a comeback.

The pop girls can still be big obviously, but they'll just need to adjust to the new sound.

We'll see how Where Have You Been does in the charts though. If that song underperforms, that'll be a BIG sign that this is happening.

And another thread back in March I suggested that Where Have You Been might not do as well as most people were expecting (also for the same reason, and I had a load of Lady Gaga fans mocking me as usual ): http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.ph...47#post9208647

So now, a few months later, what do you guys think?

[SarahWalker]

Just when WHYB is blowing up on the radio

[dontletmegetme]

Combined Payphone : %83
Wide Awake : %82

[KMKinCB]

It took me a long time to get into WHYB and for awhile I hated it. Now I love it, but I'm guessing maybe it didn't catch on for some people and that's why it's falling.

[tj hazuki]

One More Night is so much better than Payphone

[Deemy]

WHYB aint done yet. #8 will not be its peak.

[TheEmancipation]

23. Demi Lovato - Give Your Heart A Break

I'm gonna need demetria to enter top 20 this weekend

[GaGaFan]

I get so fired up when I listen to WHYB on the radio. Idk why it's not doing as we'll on iTunes.

[FAN]

Where Have You Been used to sound so good to me. Idk what happened but once it started getting played on radio I'm so bored of it. Nothing can top We Found Love and I guess this comes across as a wanna be.

Guetta and Sia should perform it in US sometime to makes it crack into top 3.

[tj hazuki]

127. Kelly Clarkson - Dark Side

So much better than half of the top 10 on iTunes.

And is Sia really a bad person??
btw she's like 40 right? so she's not gonna look like a ****in model..

Just because she isn't conventionally pretty doesn't mean she's a bad person.

She's 36; read her Twitter and watch interviews on Youtube and you can see that she is very charming and witty.

I don't know where that other poster got that idea from.
