Rico Shameless v2

I was responded to, I respond back. No troll here.

Still excited for the album, as I'm sure every song will be better than "NMT".

I know, I remember how much he bashed KGB. So no matter what the song is, as long as its Christina, he's here to troll.

Thanks for always bumping this thread, proving Christina's got your mind.

When I typed in Not Myself Tonight on iTunes search bar it came up with this....

Not Myself Tonight - Single

But when I clicked on it, nothing came up

Do you think they're preparing to add it earlier than expected??!!!

In reality, this isn't really doing that well. Here's why.

This is her first single from a studio album in years, there should be a lot of hype behind this release and there really isn't. KIIS FM refuses to play it and a lot of the smaller markets aren't jumping on it. Combine that with the fact that she only has CHR POP/RHYTHMIC on her side, her traditionally low digital sales and it all adds up to a bad peak on the HOT 100.

The fact is, this song isnt catchy and there is nothing that makes it stand out from what else is on the radio right now. It really does sound like an album filler and there is nothing that makes it special and even her delusional fans admit it. This will have a fast rise on the pop charts and then she will hit a wall and then free fall because there is nothing to make this song stand on its own two feet. It's flat and I see the call outs for this being mostly negative.

She only has herself and her team to blame. She really embarassed herself by going with what the label wanted instead of going with her own instincts and releasing "Glam". Atleast that sounded somewhat interesting and different for radio but instead she released a Britney/Girlicious left over from 2008 and there you have it.

Nowdays a 1st single will make or break your project (only a few years ago could a 2nd single save your era i.e Mariah with WBT and Christina with BEAUTIFUL, Britney with TOXIC) so now she is left with a mediocre song on radio and a slew of new and more interesting female artists to compete with. She should have released in time for the VMA's then started her promotion with that lame movie as a tie in.

She totally blew it with this comeback

There's no promo so the demand for the song on radio isn't going to be heavy.
I did expect to see some +3.3 increases though. I guess only Rihanna and Beyoncé.

Someone should've told Alicia Keys that. Because of the flop Doesn't Mean Anything, the epicness of TSWABH was not recognized by the public

nodoubt2010

Beyonce and Rihanna have an unfair advantage on radio though because they can get played by POP, RHYTHMIC, AC, HOT AC, URBAN and URBAN AC, especially if they release a somewhat decent ballad which is why they have as many huge hits as they do, same goes for Mariah Carey. People like Britney, Christina and Gaga don't have that same advantage because urban radio won't touch them. It's unfair to me but I won't get into that here

True

even kesha has urban-rhythmic support

nodoubt2010

Alicia Keys is another person who gets an unfair advantage but her label totally destroyed her era with that horrible and flat 1st single. It's the same thing that happened to Christina except Christina will probably outsell Alicia's first single on digital but Alicia will smoke her in album sales. Alicia always does well on the album charts

^ alicia had ESOM

nodoubt2010

That wasn't on her album nor was it her project, it was Jay Z's

Stunning.

Christina and her stans just hyped up the Bionic era so much. I knew this would blow up in their faces. Ever since they all tried to convince themselves that Christina was behind iamamiwhoami, expectations were WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY too high for Christina. I knew she wouldn't meet those expectations, and she'd deliver something sub-par.

Have I mentioned that some of the biggest radio stations here in the UK have barely touched this? Radio 1 (the biggest radio station in the UK) jumped all over ANOM and KGB, yet they didn't even touch NMT. Same with Capital FM (the biggest radio station in London).

I'm afraid this will flop even harded in European Markets, Australia, New Zealand and South America... In the US, only the first week sales can save it. I hope they are big!

Ester Dean should have gave this song to Keri Hilson and wrote a better one for Xtina.
