Every Heart Broken is definatly the best song on the album, but i have strong doubts it would have done any better than Girls really.

Murder One would have done a IKAG imo, sold on a wave of controversy. Especially if they had a video that followed the lyrics.

 

It wouldn't have had the longevity of IKAG at #1, as quite obviously it has no bass beat, and IKAG was a massive club song

It so would have! 'Girls' is genuinely awful. But EHB is instant and like Phil said, it has controversy behind it! :lol:

Songs which have controversy seem to do well..

 

Or songs which go against norms & values of Society!

 

E.G:

I kissed a Girl

Womanizer

The Boy Does Nothing

 

Etc Etc...

 

Obviously I just picked out recent stuff the list is endless..

 

It seems everyone just want's to be rebellious!

 

I have a sneaky Feeling Girlicious Created by PCD would do well in the UK with Stupid Sh!t!

Controversy does not sell a song though? 'I Kissed a Girl' did well because it was anthemic and had a very good hook. People don't just listen to a song and think: "ooh that's a bit taboo, a bit risque" *downloads*.

 

That's such an ignorant view to take on chart music because I don't think anyone can honestly say they do that or indeed know anyone who does that?

^Any controversial song that didn't chart well (except for Ur So Gay by Katy Perry itself)?
Every Hear Broken is hardly controversial anyway...any updates?

Obviously that's not the only reason a song sells!

 

I was just saying sometimes It can help!

 

Plus I didn't actually say that people download songs just because of this I stated that songs that do this seem to sell well!

I have a feeling this song is totally going to be swallowed up during the busy Christmas period - They should pull the release!

i think they're definitely in the top 20......as far as the t10, they are not that solid. The fact that there hasnt been much promotion doesn't help
