Valentino 4 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Mmhmm I got those receipts, boo. Oh? Oh? You heard her. You sure about that ....Pretty much, yes. :) I would, but at this point that'd be...what's the word again? Oh yes, thanks, Madge. :coffee: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magoo 6 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Do you think the new Billboard rules favoring radio and strengthening streaming has anything to do with songs being stagnant? Yes - radio and streaming changes much more slowly than sales. Also belated radio increases cancel out sales decline. In the UK where it's only sales, it's almost a new #1 every week.

Deacon 5 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Oh? Oh? You heard her. Valentino, on 16 April 2012 - 06:02 pm, said: Doesn't really matter how much airplay it gets, 'WHYB' will not #1 smash like The Navy is positive it will. Valentino, on 17 April 2012 - 03:33 pm, said: She's performing it on SNL, but that won't make a difference. If she couldn't get a Jay-Z collabo into the top 20, then she ain't gonna do #1 with this one. Sorry Navy, abandon ship! Valentino, on 24 April 2012 - 12:53 pm, said: I am literally going to piss myself if it doesn't go #1. The Navy is certain it will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valentino 4 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) WHYB is #6 on iTunes WITH a video and promo, it's not going #1. It'll go Top 3. That's what I've been saying all along, and imo, for a single such as this, from a singles artist (in the US at least) like Rihanna, top 5 ain't good enough imo. And watch, from here on she'll have a tough time reaching #1 again. The Queen of Copying Lady Gaga and Bombing with WW Album Sales Oh just, jus gimme a sec, I'm still looking...must be in here somewhere lol...no, not in that chapter....I'll jus keep lookin'...

Americano 31,061 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Well it's a late single, and most people i know already knew of the song before it was even released. I never expected WHYB to go #1, just that it'd be a hit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy8923 9 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Can someone update me with the current US Sales for TTWE and I Wanna Go and Circus? I read on Exhale that TTWE is at 2.7 million but last time I checked it was at 2.5 million. I just wanna see how far it is from reaching triple platinum. The same with IWG. I know it's around 1.5 million but it might be more and I want to see how far it is from 2 million. Also, I believe Circus is around 2.8 million since like 2009 (but I'm not sure) so I hope that it can EVENTUALLY pass 3 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
