Posted November 17, 200915 yr What would you release off of 'Rated R'? I think for me; 01 Russian Roulette 02 Rude Boy 03 Fire Bomb 04 Hard 05 Cold Case Love I think they'll go; 01 Russian Roulette 02 Wait Your Turn 03 Hard 04 Cold Case Love 05 Photographs 'Rude Boy' would be PERFECT, would get the fans who loved 'Don't Stop The Music' and 'Disturbia' back as it's that kinda style. 'Fire Bomb' is one of the most catchy and instant on the album. 'Hard' is one of the most hyped so it'd be sensible to release it imo and 'Cold Case Love' would be the PERFECT album closer. :wub: I don't know what they'll go with though, I just went by the leaked tracks and what have been the most hyped. :heehee:
November 17, 200915 yr 01- Russian Roulette 02-Rude Boy 03- Hard 04- Cold Case Love I know it wouldn't make a good single, but I really love 'Stupid in Love' :wub:
November 17, 200915 yr I agree with what you THINK should be the order of singles. That would be perfect in my opinion! I think you're pretty spot on with what they WILL go with too (well, it's what I'm guessing they'll do anyway) but is 'Wait Your Turn' definitely getting a full release?
November 17, 200915 yr I like 'Photographs' but I just don't see it as a single tbh. :( Nice on the ears, but nothing amazing! But like you said, I can see the label choosing to release it as it has Will on it. -_- ALSO, I dunno if 'Wait your Turn' is too urban to release in the UK? Defo ok for US but I dunno about here. Love the song, and the chorus is good! Just think the verses a bit much for here?! Edited November 17, 200915 yr by Johnny
November 17, 200915 yr Author Hmm yeah I think so. I don't know whether it was being used as a promo single or not tbh seeing as it's already been on music channels and such.
November 18, 200915 yr I don't know about the order, but I would choose Rude Boy, Cold Case Love, and Photographs.
November 22, 200915 yr 1. Russian Roulette 2. Hard 3. Te Amo 4. G4L Russian Roulette and Hard are perfect as the first two singles. Fire Bomb/Photographs/Rude Boy are too A Girl Like Me-ish and like everything else out there. She needs to go with something different but 10/10-standard at the same time, and those two would be Te Amo and G4L. Wait Your Turn is a wrong choice, really, there's so much better on the album. As stunning as Cold Case Love is, it is anything but single material so it'd be better off as that memorable stand-out album track rather than that single that flopped.
November 22, 200915 yr TBH now that I think of it, The Last Song is by far the best ballad on the album and it actually would've been the best lead single as well. I think it may even be her best to-date. It's so overlooked and underrated, I get double the amount of goosebumps from it than Russian Roulette. :o
November 25, 200915 yr They shouldn't have lead with Russian Roullette, it was a big risk and it hasn't paid off in the US, which is her biggest market. They should have done this: 1) Hard 2) Fire Bomb 3) Wait Your Turn 4) Russian Roullette (Still a worthy single, just not lead single material) 5) Rude Boy WW/Photographs US
December 6, 200915 yr isnt it actually 1- russian roulette 2- hard 3- wait your turn 4- stupid in love or photographs.....
December 6, 200915 yr Rude Boy is definitely the most commercial song left on the album and could easily be a huge hit...far from my favourite on the album though, that would be Fire Bomb, which I don't imagine would be a successful single
December 6, 200915 yr Author Really?! I think Fire Bomb is pretty instant and catchy. I'm pretty sure 'Hard' will be next now, well at least in the US as it blew up on iTunes over there. Looks like 'Wait Your Turn' will just be a buzz single after all which I reckon is probably for the best.
December 6, 200915 yr the only one's ive heard are russian rulette, fire bomb, wait your turn and hard and i'd love it if fire bomb was released! that chorus is so good to belt out!
December 10, 200915 yr as long as photographs gets released i'll be happy. looks like we will get hard next which will do well.
December 29, 200915 yr I would've had it: 1) Hard 2) Rude Boy 3) Russian Roulette 4) Fire Bomb 5) Cold Case Love :wub:
