you really think that peaking at #11 is a bad result for a FOURTH single??
Yeah, Paparazzi went to #6 in the States. Big Girls Don't Cry went to number 1. There are many other examples. Stop trying to make the Black Eyed Peas seem better than they are.
^ Exactly. Rihanna;s 5th and 6th singles both went #1 in the US and one of them went #1 in the UK (the other went #3).
There is no excuses. It was known from the start, Rock That Body was designed to flop, it's such a bad songs and it really makes me sad because it's the last single when you could've easily released Alive / Missing You / Electric City.
They were from a rerelease, so it's not really the same thing.
To show that I'm not biased () that's like saying "Oh well GaGa's fifth single from her album went number one in the UK, so no excuses for BEP!" It's a bit different.
The performance of Lily Allen's "Who'd Have Known" is perhaps a more suitable example (#39)
So, yes #11 for BEP isn't terrible, but that wasn't really the point of my post. It was that it just missed the top ten. And I did expect a top ten to be honest.

Thanks you, that kitass needs to stop making BEP bigger than they are.

Rock That Body didn't flop in the UK
Top 15 for the fourth single happens A LOT.
The only place where Rock That Body flopped was Canada, because it peaked at #41.

It deserved to chart so much higher, I love that song
