It should have gone:

01. Roar
02. Unconditionally
03. Dark Horse
04. Legendary Lovers
05. Walking on Air
06. Birthday

You have the three big hits 'Roar', 'Dark Horse' and 'Walking on Air' being allowed space to breathe by releasing songs in between them. I don't particularly like 'Unconditionally' but it probably helped to sell the album and it's the only thing that would really work over Christmas. It also allows 'Walking on Air' to be a big summer hit.

Dark Horse should've been pushed in October/November. It could've been massive over the New Year period. Then Unconditionally to sell the album in around February/March after both Roar and Dark Horse have run their course. Finally Walking on Air and Legendary Lovers (with video sequel to Dark Horse) to close the album.

The single choices have been absolutely shocking this era and she deserved to flop releasing songs like "Birthday" and "This Is How We Do" or releasing "Unconditionally" when "Dark Horse" was already starting to take off on sales.

I love the song and all but does she really think she's going to get any more hits from this album? It's a shame because Prism as an album is so strong in context but as stand-alone singles most of them just don't work. And I doubt the addition of Drake is going to attract anybody.

Maybe she'll release it when she's 59! *in joke alert*

I like Legendary Lovers but it's a complete joke now that she's ignoring Walking On Air. sad.gif

Still not listening to the fans, but this new take on Legendary Lovers will hopefully bring new life to the song, but it is strange that she's releasing another single after Birthday and This Is How We Do haven't exactly set the charts alight, but Walking On Air should have been released instead or earlier, but oh well let's see what happens.

This is how the run of singles from Prism should have went in my opinion =

01. Roar
02. Unconditionally
03. Dark Horse
04. Walking On Air
05. Birthday
06. Legendary Lovers
07. By The Grace Of God (A possibility for the X-mas market)

Good. Let's hope they realise that this whole choice is a mistake now.

This is better song that this is how we do but I can't see how a guest vocal from Drake will do anything but ruin the song.

This. Personally I only ever saw Dark Horse, Walking On Air and Birthday as single worthy! This Is How We Do and Legandary Lovers are good tracks but I just don't think they are strong enough.

I am in the minority of thinking This Is How We Do was a good single choice. I think if it had been released in place of Birthday and gotten the same airplay it would have been top ten...

I think she should move on now though, if there IS another single in the album it's Walking on Air or Ghost for me.
