Try with me will flop, it's nowhere to be seen on radio and it's tv airplay is poor, it's been rushed too much imo!

How much airplay did Poison have pre-release? I don't remember it being that much and it wasn't a flop. An X Factor performance is the best promo she can get.
In fact I've just had a look and Poison didn't appear in the airplay top 50 AT ALL, unless I've been really stupid and completely missed it.
It'll probably have a similar chart run to Poison then. When you consider that spent the least amount of time in the top 40 of all the 4 singles, that isn't looking good for it to be a HUGE sales hit. It'll probably get a good chart position though with X Factor.
I think if it does similar numbers to Poison then we can call it a success, not a massive one but absolutely not a flop.
Well, I can't even find a decent quality version of it anywhere. :( Plus it's MUCH too good to go to waste, better than most of the actual album itself.
Were people this upset when Rihanna "only" included 3 new songs on 'Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded'? I don't think they were. So why are people so against it now?
Then get on iTunes and download the three new tracks. You don't have to buy the album again if you've already got it.

 

The point I was making was that the record company should have been a bit more inventive with this re-release. If they had added more new tracks, then maybe more of the 140k who already have the physical release might be tempted to buy it again instead of downloading the new tracks.

I think Poison was actually #51 on radio the week before release. It was in the 50s anyway. Plus it had weeks of (small) airplay to build on. And it was extremely catchy. I think Try With Me will scrape top 10 at best.

I LOVE this. was expecting it to be a dull 'don't hold your breath' rehash judging from most of the comments here, but I really do beg to differ after hearing it. it's beautiful, I really like the transition from the piano to electro beats around the start.

this may be my favourite single from her now. not gunna lie, 'wet' wore off on me after not long. I'd probably rate her singles as this:

 

08 Poison

09 Don't Tell Your Breath

07 Right There

08 Wet

10 Try With Me

Tomorrow Never Dies sounds great! Surprised but kind of glad it's not a cover. Not keen on Trust Me I Lie from that preview. It sounds very ODDBALL.

Fantastic, the album should have been available to pre-order on iTunes though. Shame to see Try With Me so low!
I wasn't keen on that performance at all! Why did she basically stop singing towards the end? I don't think the song translated very well at all. Which is a pity because it's quite nice! And the video is so beautiful.
