^IMO Elevator was complete flop (CHR)...Sugar is just way underperforming what people expected (on CHR), kinda like Thinking Of You
Still think the sample was way too recent...only teens prob. didn't recognize it, but to anyone over age 20 or so this was Eiffel 65 part two

"Sugar" didn't flop. It went to the top ten on the Hot 100, something "Elevator" couldn't do. Top 5. And definitely not a flop, at all.

Hopefully the video will give this song a much needed turnaround.

Sorry meant that IMO too many people were too familiar with Eiffel 65 for this to become that big...think it did better on teen stations cause some teens didn't know the sample

This song was definitely riding on the success of Right Round though. If that song didn't hit Top 10, this wouldn't have blown up so quick in the first place. I just think his buzz two months ago was so huge that stations just decided to add the song when it leaked. Audiences eventually didn't react to it the same as Right Round, and it slowed down quickly since there was obvious overlap with both the singles being out at the same time. I think a very similar situation occurred with Low and Elevator.

The future of this song is imperiled, with 'Jump' being widely pushed as the summer single.

Wow, the video is not too shabby. They were too late with it, though.

^^^^^^ LOL that sounds like a track from Twista.... I think Flo-Rida should go with the two singles thing this summer...two singles on two diff formats... releasing Jump w/ Nelly Furtado on CHR, as that track is getting HEAVY buzz and it would be a great comeback for Nelly Furtado.
Then on urban...he should release Be On You w/ Ne-yo... as Ne-yo is riding off the buzz of Knock You Down... and Ne-yo on the hook always manages to get ur song in Top 20...(just in general, not all the time)

I'm so glad this underperformed on CHR. "Right Round" is so much better. This song is just sooo boring and the hook sucks. The only thing that carried it this far was the Eiffel 65 sample.

It's so weird to see this tumbling down the charts faster than Right Round.

You old folks just don't appreciate this song because you've been around long enough to know whoever the hell Eiffel 65 is. I can talk to any other teen my age and they would say they LOVE this jam. It's hot like fire.

I feel the exact same way about his female equivalent, Kristinia Debarge.
