I have a strong feeling "Bad Romance" will surpass "Russian Roulette" next week on CHR. They've been in a battle with each other since they both were released on the same week, and "Russian Roulette" has always been one slight step ahead of "Bad Romance," but it seems like next week could switch that up on CHR.

Here are the past four day updates for "Bad Romance":
11/6 - 566 spins
11/5 - 630 spins
11/4 - 555 spins
11/3 - 555 spins

Here are the past four day updates for "Russian Roulette":
11/6 - 532 spins
11/5 - 513 spins
11/4 - 522 spins

Pretty strange, but the statistics show the chance of Lady GaGa surpassing Rihanna next week are high. However, both songs are doing amazingly well and will be two of the several biggest hits of 2009. I have no problem with either song and wish them both success!

By the way, this data comes from Mediabase themselves! I figured out how to make Quick Cut show one day updates rather than seven day updates.

Yay for "Bad Romance" moving up quicker! But I'm glad they're bothing doing well.

Yeah! Lady GaGa will surpass "Russian Roulette" next week.

RR

"Hard" is taking spins and AI away from it

[danitykanelover]

**** yeahhh!!! bad romance passed RR!!!!!!!!!
im guessing hard is ruining things for that song.

[I Got Soul]

Not trying to start something - but you gotta admit - things are not looking good for RiRi.
I cannot see how "Hard" will be a hit. And "Russian" is already starting to wane.

I have always been a big fan of Ri's music - and even though I like RR - it's all too different, and not in a good way.

Rated R = Rihanna's "My December"?

[FAN]

^

but I do think releasing "Wait Your Time" as promo and leaking "Hard" were HUGE mistakes!!!

I think it is obvious that things aren't looking great for Russian Roulette, but I honestly think that songs thunder is being stolen by Hard which is blowing up! I do see Hard becoming a big hit, and it is obvious that if radio is given a choice between a sad ballad and an uptempo they will choose the uptempo.

Hard:
AI: 8.7 (+ 2.248)
Total Spins: 666 (+182)

POP: 96
