I don't think that flop is what made Daniel Merriweather disappear, the album it's from did really well. He just seemed to completely give up music and not release a second album which was always a mystery, nobody seems to know what happened to him.

Concluding 2009 by taking a look back at the final quarter of the year of flops;

Backstreet Boys – Straight Through My Heart [Peaked at #72 in October 2009]
This once major boy band of the 90s and early 00s were about to have their final charted single in 2009 and it was this flop that reached 2009, should have performed better for them.



Cascada – Dangerous [Peaked at #67 in October 2009]
Having only achieved a UK #1 single some months previously, this second single stalled at #67 and was unable to do any better than that.



David Guetta feat. Estelle – One Love [Peaked at #46 in November 2009]
Another mention in one of these threads for Mr Guetta, this time with what should really have been a comfortable hit with British singer Estelle but it just missed out.



Stereophonics – Innocent [Peaked at #54 in November 2009]
Their first single to fail to reach the Top 40 since their debut in 1997. Thankfully they would return to the Top 40 again, but not in 2009.



Lily Allen – Who'd Have Known [Peaked at #39 in November 2009]
Another artist to have graced the top spot in 2009 earlier that year, but this single was not as popular as the others from this era for the Londoner.



MIKA – Rain [Peaked at #72 in December 2009]
A far cry from the other hits MIKA had steadily built up, but unfortunately this was the start of his decline from the charts and it wasn’t long after this that we would not see him again in the charts.



La Roux – Quicksand [Did Not Chart]
Released twice in fact, once as her debut single which didn’t take off, and again as a re-release toward the end of 2009, but in both cases the single failed to get anywhere inside the Top 100.

This scraped in at 198 for Colbie. Really nice track from her again.

In between the two long-running chart hits which cracked the Top 40 from Mumford & Sons' debut, this only made it to #44:
