Happy for P!nk! I don't know a single person who doesn't like TTAL. It's an awesome album and it's selling insanely well. Hoping we'll see Try hit Top 10 in January. If not, Just Give Me a Reason will certainly slay.

And I will be laughing at everyone who thinks C'mon will flop when it hits Top 10 next month. Just wait and see. People are still on Die Young. As soon as it gets officially added and the video comes out, people will start buying C'mon.

This, I'm not placing any bets on the song yet because it's too early. Maybe people aren't buying it yet because Die Young is still popular. Or maybe people just think C'mon is a bad song. It's still too early to pass that judgement

I like Try more than Pink's ****ty lead single. But it's not taking off.

The album is doing okay, but the singles a bit behind those from her GH era.

I can't at people saying C'mon hasn't "officially" been added to radio. It doesn't make any difference if radio stations are already playing it :rofl: It would be like me telling someone I'm going to start driving to Chicago in 5 days, but I've decided to start driving there today. I'm still going to cover the same ground regardless lol.

C'Mon is also getting pushed down by Christmas song surges. Songs like Poker Face shooting back up the chart are keeping it down. It should jump considerably once the iTunes card dust clears.

Speaking of P!nk, isn't it interesting that her and X-Tina did something very similar and P!nk ended up on top. Both had a break of 4 years between studio albums (Back To Basics in 2006 and Bionic in 2010, Funhouse in 2008 and TTAL in 2012) and released a Greatest Hits in between that 4 year break. X-Tina has an album bomb and a Greatest Hits with one Platinum single and only 1 million sold WW vs. P!nk who did well with the 2 singles from her GH (#1 and #2 both @ about 3 million in the US) and doing exceptional with the TTAL era. I just think there is more to Christina flopping than the 4 year break b/w albums. I mean, P!nk had one and she came out just fine. Really brings it into perspective.

It also helps that P!nk is a lovable mother that has done some killer performances recently and Christina comes off as rude. Christina may have done some great performances in the past, but nothing recently that can even be compared to P!nk's Try and Glitter in the Air performances. Those are just amazing!

The key area where P!nk has succeeded, though, is that her comeback album is actually good. Christina's just has a few great songs (which either under performed or not given a chance) and then a ton of fillers.

I just bought P!nk's album on iTunes, I vowed that I'd buy it someday and I got a 25$ gift card so why not now? :nails:

It's really good :music:

I hope Just Give Me a Reason is a huge hit

Yes specially seeing how Try didn't smash as much i wish it woulda, since it's amazing.

Just Give Me a Reason, its equally amazing, it deserves to smash :music:

Honestly, it's not Xtina's attitude. Nobody knows about her attitude outside the music/stan world.

This. It comes down to her music and voice. She may have one of the strongest voices against her contemporaries, but I think it's almost too strong for pop music.

I dont really like Just Give Me A Reason, it's probably not going to get to the top 10.

I feel like it definitley will maybe even because of Nate.

Christina's voice is nothing too special anymore. She yells and sounds strained compared to a few years ago.

I just feel as though she always tries to overdo it. Especially live. It's like, we get it. You can sing..

She's always been like that adding a whole bunch of runs to her performances. She just can't sing quite as well as she used to.
