Pure Adrenaline

With a November release and most likely tons of promotional and TV appearances, it'll dominate those holiday sales. Maybe people will release that the first volume really isn't that good and not even bother to buy the second. 

OR  thought that he put the weaker songs on the first part and on the 2nd everything would be better and then when the lead comes being something similar to Mirrors even more people would buy it  :ohwell:  #possibilities  :derpga:  :reductive:

There will be a 20/20 Experience PART 2

 

20/20 Vol 2 comes out in November. 10 songs now. 10 songs later= 20 vision. Confirmed by Questlove (opening act for     Timberlake and familiar with the entire project).

I hope Part 2 is as s-xy and entrancing as Part 1  :whitney: 

 

 

I love ' I love it'

And 22 video is not her best but still good. On par with you and I.

More like on par with Beautiful Dirty Rich.....

It's too close to call in the race for #1 next week as veteran rockers David Bowie and Bon Jovi compete for the top spot. Here are this week's key debuts:

Bon Jovi (Island/IDJ) 90-100k
David Bowie (Columbia) 80-90k
Passion (Sixsteps/Sparrow) 40-45k
Sound City Soundtrack (RCA) 35-40k
Mindless Behavior (Interscope) 35-40k
Eric Clapton (Bushbranch/Surfdog) 30-35k

I think all songs deserve chances, don't you? :)

It's definitely catchy. Also, it's always nice to see something new. Finally, consider that those views are not with a label staunchly promoting the artist. I just think the rules work this instance.

 

Agreed. All songs do deserve a chance to hit into the mainstream and/or reach as many audience as possible. But it's probably just my partiality not to want HS to spend more weeks atop the HOT 10 chart since I'd want the other songs in the top five or in the top 10 for that matter to have their own chance to be a chart-topper. 

You can't lose what you never had.  HS never even gained on the radio and in streaming.  It's radio peak is around 40. 

I'm simply pointing out that HS did get a lot of decreases in almost all the major factors of the HOT 100 to an extent that it's baffling for me why it's still #1, given the notable increases of the rest of the current top five. 

 

Online momentum for "Shake," the viral smash thanks to the song's (and dance's) runaway meme (in which a person dances to the song alone for 15 seconds before others join in for the clip's second half), declines for a second consecutive week, although not as sharply as last week; and, its totals are still far ahead of its closest competitors. "Shake" holds at No. 1 on the BDS-based Streaming Songs chart with a 10% decrease to 48 million streams, down from 54 million last week and 98 million the week before. Sales also slide by 19% to 186,000, as "Shake" dips 3-4 on the Digital Songs chart. Still, the song passes 1 million in downloads sold to date.

"Shake" also slips in on-demand audio streaming and radio airplay. It retreats 15-16 on the subscription services-based On-Demand Songs chart with 632,000 streams (down 23%). Its total radio audience weakens by 2% to 7.8 million, a sum not strong enough for "Shake" to yet appear on the 75-position-deep all-format Radio Songs chart. As pointed out in Friday's (March 8) "Weekly Chart Notes" column, "Shake" is the first Hot 100 No. 1 not to reach Radio Songs since Taylor Hicks' "Do I Make You Proud" in 2006. (Hicks' ballad reigned largely due to sales following his "American Idol" coronation that year.)

Haha I'm agreeing with you. My post was tainted with a hint of sarcasm ;).

The 22 video is about as interesting as cold cereal.

I just read this:

 

"Bionic is Xtina's Glitter and Lotus is just her Charmbracelet. She'll have her Emancipation next era."

 

What do ya'll think? Can Legend X make a decent comeback?

Can Ke$has warrior go platinum in the US?

Hell nah

 

It will reach gold status once "Supernatural" slays the charts and everyone finds out it came from that album.  :legend:  :legend:  :legend:  :legend:

Xtina can make a comeback if she can get her vocals back on track, for starters. Half of Lotus is ruined because the vocals are strained and she is screaming most of the time. Just look at Army of Me, Sing for Me, Just a Fool, etc. The next thing is the production - she's trying to do dance pop and I don't know why. I think she pulls it off sometimes (Let There Be Love, Your Body), but other times she falls so flat (Circles). And nearly every song on the album is overproduced, or the production is just flat out terrible (like what the **** was going on in the Lotus Intro? Or Make the World Move?). Often times the keys don't match or the effects are bad, or just something is off about it.

 

The potential is there, but it just doesn't hit the mark. That was the problem with Lotus. I won't even start with Bionic. What a mess, in every possible sense of the word. She can make a comeback, but she has to stop screaming, she has to actually hit all the notes, and she needs to make better decisions and get more involved with the music when it comes to production and direction.

Supernatural will flop. They should not be choosing this as the single. The disconnection between the verses and the chorus are way too strong for radio airplay, which is the biggest problem with the song. They should've gone with one of the midtempo ballad-esque tracks.

Correction: Cold Cereal is MORE interesting than 22. At least you can use that to have a nice, hearty breakfast. :awesome:
