What are the chances of her Re-Releasing? Maybe doing something similar to GaGa and making a seperate thing for it?

I really had my hopes up that Hard was going to be the next single. But I think Rude Boy is a great track and it should do well. Hard MUST be the third single though :wub:

wud do good actually its a grower

WELL! I think they are planning this for a release at some point coz here is the cover:

AMAZING COVER! Whoever is doing the artwork this era needs some sort of graphics award! It's all been phenomenal! (Anyone else think it looks like Cremey's work in the cover designs thread and stuff :kink:)

Love that cover! :wub:

INDEED JONJO! Cremey we need confirmation.

Amaze cover <3.

:wub: :wub: :wub: brilliant cover!

I hope this is the second single over 'hard' so much now, will there be a video?

released 22nd now

oh... that's pretty bad... up against JLS, lady gaga/beyonce, owl city and sugababes.

Don't think it matters TOO much, it'll probably peak before it's release anyway and I don't really think it had a shot at #01 or anything. I'd just be happy enough with Top 5/10 given how challenging the charts are lately.

Did you not think it was a bit odd that I'd only started liking Rihanna this era?! :kink:

Why is Hard on the music channels if this is the next single? This era is a bloody mess! Hard deserves to be a single in its own right here.....i mean...its not like the album is full of commercial songs! <_<

2nd single in the UK!

 

It's been added to C-List on Radio 1!

I'm quite annoyed about this now.

Why bother adding 'Hard' to UK music channels if it's not even the next single? Especially seeing as it was doing so well on iTunes!

 

Oh well! Let's just hope 'Rude Boy' is a hit and increases 'Rated R''s sales.

I don't understand why they chose to release this. I'm not that happy about this getting released, mainly because I was hoping 'Hard' would be the next single. I don't see why they sent it to music channels when it isn't even the next single.

They've tried to do the Beyonce 'If I Were A Boy'/'Single Ladies'! We'll get the more commercial track; but they'll send other videos out as promo use I should think. I LOVE this single choice and it's nice to get some confirmation as to what really is the second single. It just SEEMS messy. But they know what they're doing.

 

BRING ON THE VIDEO! :w00t:

#127 on iTunes :]

Yey. I love Hard, but Rude Boy is epic imo :D

itunes position before 'hard' was on music channels - 300 odd.

itunes position before 'rude boy' is on music channels - 123 and rising.

 

I'm totally optimistic about this. so great that it's a single.
