Rumours are that a second video is gonna drop, given the fact there are missing 'stills' that have been released that didn't feature in the video i.e the ones of Rih smoking and other photos. As to how true that is, I don't know, but if it is, Rih could use this video to generate a buzz then drop the alternate video when it's already top 10 and snatch those US streaming points.
I like the video, but don't love it. It's disappointing, I agree (especially for this song!) but it feels suited to the song and compliments the song well enough. Really pleased at it already going top 40 on UK iTunes! Now for airplay to kick in and for this to become a big hit, please!

Pretty good video, not sure what all the negativity is about ~

 

I highly doubt there will be a second video, would it be classed as a part two?

Why is this not performing well?

 

I was expecting a top 10 smash worldwide but it seems that it's not getting the support that I thought it would :( What a massive, massive shame as it's the best song from ANTI.

I like the song, it's really catchy and a grower. Not sure why it is flopping!! Maybe cos Work was such a power bitch anthem and this is a big step softer?
I'd say, since Work is still top 2 in America and is still huge around the world, that it's overshadowing any new single for now. I can see it doing well in the UK when it moves up the playlists though.
I don't understand it either :( I didn't think it would smash but even in The Netherlands it's being outpeaked by 'Needed Me' which I didn't expect at all.

I remember Britney fans praying for the same thing when she released 'Gimme More'. Though I love that video now.

 

Video isn't bad, but the quality of her videos has dropped significantly with the last two eras. The song is great though, best track on the album. It deserves to smash a lot more than the lead did, IMO.

I love this so much, it's started to grow even more. I was in Portugal last week and it was everywhere.

 

Glad it seems to be climbing fast on iTunes in the UK.

Urgh, it's stalled at 51 3 times on UK Spotify, if it could just get into the top 50 that would increase its hit chances by a huge amount. Why did she do Love on the Brain at BBMA? :(

 

It was a bad time to release it really, with 3 other popular Rihanna songs around.

I think this ulitmately is going to be it's downfall sadly. A bit like how 'Man Down' got lost during the mammoth LOUD era.

i'm so frustrated this flopped :nocheer:

 

ah well; it's still one of the best songs on the album IMO

51-60-57-77-60-46-49-48-51-60-67

 

UK chart run for this :(

 

So gutting that it peaked at #51 on Spotify on 3 different occasions, if it had managed to make its way into the top 50, it might have had a much better chart run as it did OK on sales. No Capital or Radio 1 A list support also can't have helped.

 

This won the Anti rate here, I wonder if it'll be looked upon differently now that it flopped?

Fat Joe's "Sunshine (The Light)" which heavily samples "Kiss It Better" is set to go top 100 in the UK this week, I'm loving the interpolation of it!
