I actually really like this video. It's grown on me more than my initial first watch. Not her absolute best, but it's better than a lot of her videos.
Now I just can't wait to see the remix video, as well as hear more songs. Bring it on.

It's getting impossible to parody new MC videos since she does it herself.

Mariah really needs to fire all her marketing people... a good single been screwed by marketing yet again... since TEOM the strategies has been all screwed... what happened?
the saving grace is it is doing well in Australia...Japan
they should just save the funds for the 2nd single... when even your favourite (which i think they no loner give her tt much support) station B96 is not putting you in power rotation..u know tt u wun succeed...

The simple and most plausible explanation for Obsessed's sluggish performance is that the general public just aren't that interested in the song itself (as the downloads prove). I hasn't not blown up due to a poor marketing strategy.

Uh, 1st off, it's hardly what i'd call a flop. Secondly, he wouldn't really be at liberty to laugh about much. Sure, he had a #1 single, but it dropped almost immediately thereafter, and the other ones ain't done much better.

The thing is it hasn't really flopped. Especially coming off of three real flop singles (including 'My Love') from last era, this is doing great.

it will mark the 3rd lead single from her failing to make the top 10 on BB100 since TTR and ITL..

Following It's Like That's peak at #16, We Belong Together took over the world (literally). I still think they have a trick or two in the bag for Obsessed. Stop flop-talking. |

Sure, he had a #1 single, but it dropped almost immediately thereafter, and the other ones ain't done much better. Moot point, as his album is at around 1,3 million copies sold, is still in the Top 10, and spawned two Hot 100 Top 10 singles. I don't get why the possibility that maybe E=MC2's will be remembered as her last successful era is not being considered. She's not getting any younger, so a career slowdown is to be expected sooner or later. |

The lack of promo is the culprit, but I think they'll more than make up for it in the near future. E=MC² is definitely NOT her last successful era. |

And her single has barely been out a month, and it's being called a flop? lol Her cd is not out yet, so we don't know where she'll be at sales wise, when Memoirs has been out as long as his has. He's not getting any younger, either. They're clearly not that far apart in age, at all. Also, despite his cd still being in the top 10, that's great for him, but it sure isn't like he's exploding at radio, either, was the point. |

Calling "Obsessed" a flop is silly, but thinking this era will so obviously get on the right track is just as silly. We'll just have to wait and see. |

Adding rent-a-rappers is not going to help Obesed at the formats where it truly needs it. |

Has he ever been one her remixes before? Not that I recall. Also, has anyone else heard about Bangladesh producing a track on the cd? Or, is that just rumored so far?

That was one of the rumors spawned by Percy. So it's most likely false.
