Posted January 31, 200817 yr Wow :dance: most US fans I've talked to think it's too 'gay' and camp to be a hit and would have prefered IMA. <_< but I love Wow :wub: and I think it can do okay as long as she comes and promotes! I think the single choice doesn't matter as much as radio actually picking it up and her coming to perform/promote it. without that she'd doomed :(
January 31, 200817 yr It's definitely a better choice than having '2 Hearts' as the lead single, that would have been a disaster. But I can't see this doing much at all.
February 1, 200817 yr No, In My Arms is better and has a bettter video, The One would have been better as well.
February 2, 200817 yr I love wow, but the only place in the US where this will be big will be in gay clubs, mainstream radio won't touch it.
February 2, 200817 yr Not a good single choice for the US market. I agree, its too camp, naff and cheesy for release there. I doubt this will do well or help her credability in the states.
February 2, 200817 yr It might scrape the Hot 100, but if that's all Slow could manage... :( The video is VERY American though.
February 2, 200817 yr Hmm not sure this is a good choice. The obvious single is "All I See" but it doesn't really reflect the rest of the album. I think she should have released something more dancey as opposed to poppy. "The One" for example. But hey-ho! Good luck Kylie!
February 2, 200817 yr I can't see her doing well with anything tbh :( But she can try and get another dancey hit I guess.
February 3, 200817 yr its hard to know how wow will do in america but i would say the same no matter what song was picked for release there, america isnt exactly kylie's most successfull territory but time will tell
February 4, 200817 yr But 2 Hearts was released on iTunes here. o.O Weird. ...Oh wow, they must have deleted it. Anyhoo, this WILL flop. Massively. Won't even scrape the top 100. =/ In My Arms would have been a much better choice.
February 10, 200817 yr No! :( America should go: In My Arms >> All I See >> Like A Drug >> Speakerphone/Nu-Di-Ty I don't know why Wow was ever considered as a single tbh :(
February 10, 200817 yr 'All I See' would NOT make a good single in the US. It's pitiful faux R&B which won't work in the US whatsoever, remember she tried it before with 'Red Blooded Woman'?
February 10, 200817 yr Red Blooded Woman was by far the best option for 2nd American single, as was the case here too. That's an amazing song. Both Like A Drug and All I See are the obvious US choices, LAD moreso.
February 10, 200817 yr i dont agree about red blooded woman but like a drug would have been a great choice for the american market
February 12, 200817 yr Like A Drug would flop massively too. As much as I like X, the only song that could even get some success is In My Arms, and even then it'd be very minimal. Kylie has a huge gay following here, but not much else. CGYOMH worked well beacuse it was sleak, very US pop-like, as well as Love At First Sight, but nothing else has. It's hard enough to have a pop hit here anyway. I'll be very surprised if Kylie could ever really gain anymore success here.
