#2 on iTunes, AI has doubled in a week, strong streaming. It's not going to have a long chart run, but it's rising fast.

Not sure if I like this yet. I saw how well it was doing before hearing it on radio for the first time and I was a little underwhelmed. I did notice though that to me her vocals sounded like a cross between Amy Winehouse and Fergie on this, and parts of it remind me of "Rehab" in particular. And the hook reminds me of "Big Fat Bass," though I preferred the Britney song to this. But it's different and I'm hoping it does grow on me.

I really don't see the appeal in this. It's really annoying. Unless I'm missing some sort of message in the chorus, the chorus saying she loves bass and the verses are about being thick, do not match whatsoever.

Unless I'm missing some sort of message in the chorus, the chorus saying she loves bass and the verses are about being thick, do not match whatsoever. Meghan Trainor explains the metaphor in her Billboard interview: "You know how the bass guitar in a song is like its "thickness," the "bottom"? I kind of related a body to that. My producer [Kadish] had the title and said that none of his prior co-writers could figure out what to relate that to. So, I said, "What about a booty? Let's talk about that!" (laughs) From there, it turned into, let's do a song about loving your body … and your booty." She's a songwriter and has written a couple of songs for Rascal Flatts.

I also think Meghan's real audience will be in the adult contemporary audience long term. I think no matter where this ends up, her audience is not in mainstream pop. Kinda like sara barellies...
She pretty much has the album almost finished and has a second single ready. It's just up to epic records to give the green light.
Maybe they should do an album preorder with new song in the next two weeks?

No, it's not boring at all, maybe in two months i'll hate this, but it's catchy and funny and with a good message, and has an old fashioned vibe and a nice video. It's summer and this song totally fits with summertime

Lol! Ha! I cant see Adele doing a song like this. Her energy is older and more depressed.

It is a distinct possibility it will hit #1 on iTunes today. Currently at about 95% of bang bang.

Agreed - I'm hoping Anaconda steals some interest away from Bang Bang and allows this to jump to #1 (although I guess it's possible Anaconda itself makes an appearance there today). Technically, it's been stuck in that 94-96% range for like 24 hours, so I'm surprised Bang Bang has even been able to retain its advantage for this long. But I do think this is getting to #1 soon.

currently its #1 on iTunes, yesterday it was #2 behind Anaconda. This should have no problem being in the top 10 on most charts eventually ...

If people won't get tired of this, it will be a candidate to be number one, most of the songs dominating the hot 100 right now are quite older. It won't be easy to surpass Rude, Stay with me or Fancy because they are scoring big in all departments, but all that songs are peaking (of peaked a while ago).

For the serious post: I don't really like this song. I don't know but it smells like one-hit wonder for me.
For the silly post: Wouldn't it have been funny if the song title lacked that B and followed Anaconda at number one? LOL
