Pure Adrenaline 1,518 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 22 is ****ing horrible. I hope it flops while Rihanna is slaying with Pop and Urban hit singles. "Make fun of our exes" Like seriously, are you in middle school? Either way, I'm just happy IKYWT didn't top the BB Hot 100 and the video where she was supposed dressed like Harry.....ooof the backlash would be from another planet :excited2: It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innovative 17 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 One of the best single covers I've seen in a while Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
truthandfacts 0 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I'll try to remember that. RIHANNA – Stay f/Mikky Ekko: 29.639 (+ 1.905) #3, #89 & #1148 iTunes That is possibly the most outlandish comparison I have ever heard. Bad Romance: A debut electro-pop artist releases an fast upbeat song for the first single off of her rerelease Stay: An established pop star, usually labeled as a dance artist, releases a ballet for her second single off of her seventh album. Haha these songs are basically polar opposites. I now go back to my previous comment of how this forum is trying to downplay Stay's success. Everyone is throwing a hissy fit because it's performing way better than you guys anticipated. Nah someone was saying rihanna must have paid for her views,to get 24mil in 4 days and i was saying its normal for a star of her stature to get those numbers. YEAH I agree with you pple here downplay her achievements,lbr they downplay every artist that isn't gaga. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy8923 9 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Stay is doing very well for a second single. Let's not forget that this is her first second single since 2009 to NOT benefit from fan sales. Because both YDO and WMN were released before the album so fans were motivated to buy the single since they didn't have it. That also includes Judas. Gaga's last second single. Who knows where it would of peaked without the fan sales? :toofloppy: Anyways, this is really the first time in a long time that Rihanna took a longer break between singles. WMN was released while OG was still charting and it actually reached #1 BEFORE OG did! That's how close together those singles were. And YDO was released 6 weeks after WFL. This time her label actually waited a good 4 months to release Stay to radio, release the video, and promote it. I feel like this era will be more organized and less rushed. Maybe a longer break between albums? A spring/summer 2014 release instead of November 2013? It all comes to question. Glad to see her taking it slow. :nick: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm ready for Ri to get that 6th Platinum album :nails: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy8923 9 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 WMN came out before LOUD? I didn't know that. I'm ready for Ri to get that 6th Platinum album Yes. Like I said, it topped the Hot 100 BEFORE the lead single. "What's My Name?" managed to reach number one on the chart, before the lead single "Only Girl (In the World)", which topped the chart after two weeks. In the same week, it reached the top spot on US Hot Digital Songs with first week sales of 235,000. Rihanna became the first artist in Billboard Hot 100 history to have their first single go to number one after their second single ("Whats My Name?" followed by "Only Girl (In the World)").

heavymlover 340 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 You Da One was catchier than Stay... Actually much better, in my opinion. I guess we can blame its early release when WFL was still strong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly enough, what S&S loses in AI on Pop it gains on another format. Ah, the beauty of a crossover hit. Jean won't see one ever again so I bask in the moment.

Arturo 40,746 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I hope a single from Gaga can come by May That way there can be something fun to track on the charts 7 weeks at #1 please :legend: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick4bty 2,758 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 You Da One is the best song off of TTT I love YDO. It perfectly combines elements of Pop and R&B. It's always annoyed me how Rihanna albums are usually half pop/half R&B. I'd rather more songs that combine the two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy8923 9 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 OMG. That 1D song is completely obliterating right now. http://kworb.net/ww/ Dear GOD. :eek: Let me give this a listen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
