Billboard is so jank. Make up your mind, no more singles or more singles..
Also, why does Billboard use itself as a source?
"It is no rumor, the song is the next single, BILLBOARD CONFIRMS".
That just seems rather redundant, haha. ???

Good! Rumour Has It is a great choice for 4th single. Follow that up with Turning Tables and then that would be it for singles this era, I would think. I can't picture any other songs going to radio.

That just seems rather redundant, haha. ??? The idea that there would only be three singles serviced from this record, especially when Adele will be taking her time with the follow-up to "21", was absurd in the first place. I don't get where Billboard got that impression, frankly. The viability of "Rumour Has It" has already been demonstrated by its digital selling draw as a stand-alone track, as well as having already peaked at #2 on Triple A radio and managing a chart placement on Alternative radio off of unsolicited airplay. "Turning Tables" and "I'll Be Waiting" have also made multiple appearances as deeper cuts on the iTunes Top 100. They can easily push this album five singles deep, and there's no excuse not to. Namaste, lisping HIBISCUS

Hi, I'm Billboard. Adele is not having any more singles from 21 after "Set Fire to the Rain." I know, I know, tt's sad, but don't worry, because Billboard has confirmed "Rumor Has It" will be released from 21 after "Set Fire to the Rain."

The obvious choice. This will just keep things rolling right along for Adele. Not sure about its #1 potential on CHR and the Hot 100--I know it's absurd to underestimate Adele, but at the rate the album has been selling and the track has been selling, it will be difficult. I said something similar regarding SFTTR, but that track has always been something special that was just waiting to be unleashed onto the public. This is a great song, but doesn't have quite the oomph the previous three singles did. Nevertheless, it will be a success and keep the album selling nicely.

This is perfect. Speed up the tempo and than slam them with Turning Tables during the Fall. She's here for that diamond plaque.

I'm really glad they're (seemingly) not ending the era with Set Fire to the Rain. That would've seemed like a huge missed opportunity.

This is all going according to plan. End the era with Turning Tables and it will be perfect.

Although not sure about speeding it up, but Turning Tables next, please! I'm not talking about speeding up the tempo of the song. It's already perfect. Just in general relation to all of her singles this is very uptempo like RITD. We've had mid-temp, ballad, ballad so far. Good to bring it back up for people who think she's a one sided story.

LOL, I knew they weren't going to just let this era go after three singles. Would've been such a waste.

no reason why this shouldnt be another #1 for her. but its one of those songs thats just missing something in the production and the overall vibe of the song thats missing and could of made it hotter. I could see it being good enough to hit #1 due to the momentum she has (like every other singer at her level and career zenith) the song coulda been sh*t and still had a good shot at #1.

A great song that I've never been able to enjoy quite as much as I might because it sounds like she has a speech impediment on the chorus.

Makes sense. I'm glad they waited for this as the 4th single instead of the 3rd. Should do pretty well. Number one? Not sure. Bets on whether or not there'll be a real video for this one? I'm guessing no. lol

Obvious choice, should do very well. #1 might be hard, but if anyone can do it, it'll be Adele. Hoping for "Turning Tables" after this...and after that, who knows? "I'll Be Waiting"? This album has SO much potential.
Also I want a video for this one. Could be really cool and sassy.
