Oyemiamor 40 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 First #1 overall on the Hot 100 :) Yes that is what I meant. Just surprising. Actually it is just kind of clear she (her label) didn't take any measures to buy it previously. I just wish she had of released a better single, even if it were more country twang.

I wish Taylor had released a better lead single, too. I loved Speak Now, and the overall quality of that album is greater that WANEGBT. Not that it's not a decent song, but it's definitely not one of her best. I'm glad it's successful though. Tayl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah "Never" definitely doesn't deserve to be a chart topper in terms of quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy8923 9 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 For those of you interested, here is a link to X-Tina's latest lead single, Your Body, it's a FULL LQ demo, but it sounds pretty good overall: http://omfgmusic.net/post/30040545666/here-is-the-demo-of-xtina-dirty-new-single-your The song itself is good. I like it. Nothing out of the ordinary and nothing that diverts from what is already on Pop Radio, but I personally don't blame her for taking the generic route, I would of done the same thing, had my previous lead single and album performed so poorly. I hope it performs well, I'm rooting for her because I don't want to see her career fall into shambles before me, even though her personality is far from likable, I think the whole Bionic Era gave her a little slap in the face and, hopefully, she can come back strong and actually make herself a noticeable presence in the music industry again and sell a considerable amount of albums and tour tickets. :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
