QUOTE(blade699 @ Jun 30 2006, 04:39 PM)  What's KN? Who Knew And PP its according to her promo company. the albums hasnt even reached 500k, the label themselves have admitted that Stupid Girls was a flop and Who Knew hasn't even charted on the Hot 100 yet. If U+UH flops the thats 3 flop singles and a flop album. How CAN she go on? Its a failed project and what makes it worse is that it was P!nk who's made all these decisions and admitedly the label shouldn't have let her but well its a mess. Considering relations between her label are so bad i.e. P!nk refusing to perform what is her new single on tour I wouldn't be suprised to see her leave her label if things don't improve. IF and its a big IF U+UH works, the label will pander to US radio and release another radio friendly track and American radio wants 'Long Way To Happy'. So I'd be suprised that if a 4th single was to happen it wasn't that. There won't be a 5th single I'm almost certain of that, not unless she has storming success with U+UH and then single 4. P!nk's got a hard job ahead of her. She needs to promote U+UH like hell if she wants it to stand any chance of actually succeding. I hate to see P!nk in such a bad way. She has Europe and Australia but she needs America if she wants to keep her recording contract

She hasn't even reached 400k there yet
2 singles down and with sales like that are atrocious Its the biggest high-profile flop in America this year. Following the US charts heavily as I do, Hoobastank are the only other artist who have done so badly that I can think of. Its a shame though Try This went Platinum in the US indicating sales of 1,000,000+ and that was with only 2 singles released to mainstream radio

I can't believe how badly it's doing. Is she promoting there or has she just given up and only promotes in Europe where most of her sales are?

For some reason she's deciding not to promote 'Who Knew'. I don't know whether this was her decision or not but its daft either way. So I'd say she herself has given up. Its ashame cause IND is one of the best albums of the year

This is a really good song, i think 'Leave me alone (I'm lonely)' and 'Dear Mr. President' should be released too, they are all really good songs, hopefully 'U + Ur hand' will do great!!

I think it's probably the best choice for a single.....it sounds very similar to Kelly Clarkson - Since U Been Gone and that usually sells.

I think it will do pretty alright in the UK, #7 maybe? It should give the album a good boost again though.

Well its no suprise when she's refusing to do any promo. It won't get you far.
Stupid Girls NEVER should have been the first single as I've said it gave us a mis-representative idea of what the album's like. It isn't all bubblegum pop. And as I suspected as excellent track 'Who Knew' is it wasn't 2nd single material. she should have done 2 faster singles and then slowed it down later into the album. If I had made the single choices from the perspective of her lable i.e. to sell records and not what i want personally, I would have chosen: 1) U + Ur Hand 2) 'Cuz I Can 3) Long Way To Happy 4) Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely) 5) Who Knew Oh and word from the US is that IF U+UH does well than 'Long Way To Happy' will follow as a 4th single. |

I agree that 'Stupid Girls,' was a poor 1st single from the album and what was more annoying was (well certainly where I am) it was getting all the r'n'b bummers into that tune and that tune alone and they completley mis-understood the point of the song though too. However, Pink did confirm if it wasn't for the video she wouldn't have even put it on the album, but at the end of the day I would have rather had an amazing song as the lead single even with a poorer video, don't get me wrond I do like the song but as you said it is a poor mis-representation of the album.

Official statement from Sony BMG UK HERE
QUOTE(Sony BMG UK) 03/07/2006 We're very excited to confirm that P!nk will release a third single from her massive album I'm Not Dead this summer. All the songs on the album are potential chart toppers, but the mighty magenta one has decided that U + Ur Hand will be the next big anthem. The video is already in the bag, and is pretty amazing – make sure you sign up to the official site to get the first view of it in the coming days. Head on over to the Sign-Up section of www.imnotdead.co.uk to make sure you don't miss out. Well there's more than offical confirmation if ya needed it  Must say that I'm shocked that we'll be seeing the video in the "coming days" that would indicate that it should be shown within the next week or two I would have thought

What went wrong in the US:
-Single choices which were bound not to work there (U + Ur Hand seems to have been accepted there as a far stronger 1st single) -She's barely done any promo there what so ever. |
