I like Farewell, but it actually is not radio friendly, at least not as much as DOL or WAWL. You better listen them again and then looks what kind of low-tempos succeed on radio airplay charts. And I don't understand the contempt that WAWL gets on this thread. It has the positive, touching and honest message that would do better than Farewell's negative one.
I'm as sure as one can be at this point that Farewell won't get single treatment. It will come to WAWL and DOL for the ballad single.  |
I loooove DOL. It's amazing. But it's too deep, and it is just not mainstream enough. It would have to be force-fed to the public for them to appreciate it. Farewell would promote itself.
Farewell is positive. It's sad, but with a positive take on the sadness. And anyways, who wants a happy ballad? Someone Like You? Unfaithful? Impossible?
All that said, I'm not campaigning for Farewell to be the next single. I'd much prefer TTT, WHYB, C(LIT), DYT, or even RL. This album is just full of singles. I would kill for all of those, plus maybe Roc Me Out and Farewell.
lol
It's definitely not my type of movie, but I'll still go see it for Rihanna. I wish it was chick flick or a comedy though. 
I don't mean them in a bad, negative way

and I have to say that WTH have you been smoking if you don't see it doing better as a single than Farewell and even DOL. It has a perfect production for a "radio ballad" and I'm sure its topic/message would be very suitable and fitting for radio.
