It is about time we create a thread for the upcoming summer smashes of 2009.
With summer just a few weeks away, we have seen quite a couple of songs that are positioning to dominate pop radio this summer.
Here are strongest contenders. Incidentally, all of these songs are by the hottest female artists on pop radio right now.
13 KELLY CLARKSON I Do Not Hook Up 4945 4296 649 19 PINK Please Don't Leave Me 3331 2878 453 23 KATY PERRY Waking Up In Vegas 2854 2141 713 28 LADY GAGA Lovegame 2156 1179 977 97 BRITNEY SPEARS Radar 72 28 44
Four of these artists have scored a #1 smash on CHR during the last 6 months - Pink (So What), Katy Perry (Hot 'n Cold), Lady Gaga (Just Dance, Poker Face), and Britney Spears (Womanizer, Circus).
Three of them have scored #1 smashes on the Hot 100 during the past 6 months.
Other possible contenders:
24 KRISTINIA DEBARGE Goodbye 2834 2005 829 35 JESSIE JAMES Wanted 1120 856 264

The common link seems to be that they are all female artists.

Where are Goodbye and Battlefield? They both have a much better shot at being the summer anthem than Radar, lmao, as does Battlefield. I would hardly call a song at #97 with like 70 spins "dominating radio" either.
Anyway, I'm not sure what will be the Umbrella/I Kissed a Girl of the summer yet, but the ones you listed and also Battlefield, Goodbye and Sweet Dreams have potential.

You should make a poll too. But I think these will be the dominating summer anthems...
1. Kristina DeBarge-Goodbye 2. Beyonce-Sweet Dreams 3. Lady Gaga-LoveGame

Anthems Kristinia DeBarge - Goodbye - This is the song to beat right now Lady GaGa- LoveGame - Huge single, Novelty hook that all the girls will be singing KELLY CLARKSON - I Do Not Hook Up - Catchy as f*ck, great relatable message to plenty of girls SEAN KINGSTON - Fire Burning - hate him, but this song is growing and it has the summertime party vibe
PITBULL - I Know You Want Me (came out a little bit early but it has the summer feeling to it that should give it airplay throughout the summer.

I think we'll have a big mix of songs at the top and we'll end up saying it was Boom Boom Pow.

^interesting post that has no relevance to the post it quotes. the quoted post merely says that #97 is not dominating radio. that is true by anyone's book

The common link seems to be that they are all female artists. There are plenty of male or band/group songs exploding or doing well as well. This board seems obsessed with female pop stars so I can understand why the female songs are the ones that get attention though.

Is Rihanna releasing her single during the Fall? If so I guess she'll have the Fall anthem.

lol at people thinking all these new songs that don't go for adds until late may/early june are gonna be the song of the summer. the song of the summer is usually released in late march/april (IKAG being the exception - early may).

This board seems obsessed with female pop stars so I can understand why the female songs are the ones that get attention though. Yeah the person pickin out the "nominees" went through the CHR chart and singled out the female pop star songs that were risin...I still think Second Chance by Shinedown has at least another month of momentum left in it esp. since it spent so long on Alt/Active Rock - IMO Don't Trust Me is either gonna catch on big time or it's gonna burn (not sure which yet)...outta all the female pop star songs I'd go with I Do Not Hook Up, but haven't heard Lovegame or Radar yet

I'm thinking that Love Game, Don't Trust Me, I Do Not Hook Up, and Waking Up In Vegas will be this summer's huge songs. I could be completely wrong though.
