Let's face it, if ADELE cared about H100 placement, she would've done the little things that would've pushed WWWY into the Top 10 or higher. I fairly certain with all her anxiety about following up '21,' '25' has exceeded even her most optimistic dreams. I'm sure she is OK with '25' returning to #1 and WWWY at 14 (and Hello at 7) rather than the other way around. The other factor with WWWY - it's reception has been lukewarm internationally - so US is not an anomaly - it's only hit Top 10 in one major music market (Canada). I ended liking the song (a lot) but my first reaction was probably correct thinking it was a good album song but not an smash hit

With 25 back on top, I think it's safe to say the relatively disappointing peak positions at top 40 and the Hot 100 have had little negative impact on the album's showing.
On Billboard's March 5 Pop Songs chart, it dropped 13-14*, with 6,775 spins (+54), and an audience of 30.44m (No. 16 among the top 40).

I remember several people laughing at my prediction that she wouldn't have any more #1s beyond the first single. While my reasoning was different than what actually happened, I still stand by that prediction.
Sucks that this song didn't do better because it's the best on the album but its underperformance doesn't take away from it.

Maybe their questioning on what should be the next single?
Should definitely be Send My Love, at least in the US.

"Send My Love" should have been sent to radio yesterday.

I say wait til beginning of April to send a third single to radio. Hello is still big and WWWY is still getting spins too.
I agree that Send My Love needs to be the next single. Plus it's one of the few songs that she hasn't performed live except for her tour. She's probably saving it's television performance for when it's a single.

God, I wish she had recorded a video for this. The song feels so cinematic!
