I really want to hear the radio edit of the song so I can decide how I feel about this. I'm afraid that the song will be so heavily edited, that it won't even be the same song. You know what I mean?
The radio stations butchered the hell out of "Russian Roulette" and "S&M". And I completely agree with you. Just about every song on the album has the potential to be a hit, but it all depends on when they songs are released, the video, the promo, etc. I really want "Cheers" to be released as the final single from LOUD. That way, if it is a #1 smash hit, her label will be forced to re-release the album like we all want.
****!
Oh well.
Ikr, I still hope she still releases Cheers as the official summer. It has anthem written all over it. 
I just don't see "Man Down" being as big as the other singles this era. "Only Girl", "What's My Name", and "S&M" were the obvious hits from the album, whereas "California King Bed" and "Man Down" can either be big hits or big flops, just like "Te Amo" and "Rockstar 101". But then again, this could also help her out, since "Only Girl" and "What's My Name" being in heavy rotation at the same time helped them both in the end.
I know, most people find it weird that I, of all people, don't want "Man Down" to be a single. But the truth is, I've always thought of the song as the hidden gem of the Loud album, sort of like "Cold Case Love", "Fire Bomb", etc. were on Rated R. I'm afraid it will flop. 
I know
no matter how well it does.
