The other thread was approaching 90 pages, so I've decided to make a new thread to track its chart life. :)

Remember when people used to start new threads when the old one reached 100 pages?
No, me neither.

^ I don't see the big deal honestly. Perhaps they could add a new rule that states not to start any additional threads until the topic currently open has reached X number of pages? At least it would help breakup the confusion.

Anyone think this is the most narcissistic pop single since Fergalicious?

People like to keep reminding that the add date is the 28th, but everyone knows there's a new Mariah video and song out. No DJ on CHR doesn't know it's out. If it was gonna be a hot song, add date wouldn't matter, period!

Circus doesn't really strike me the same way. Because of what Britney's been through and how low her self-esteem is, it comes off more as asking for attention instead of expecting/demanding it. Mariah, on the other hand, comes off as a born narcissist. I think the long-standing rumors about her professional behavior back that up.

Jul 16 2009 1:33 PM EDT Mariah Carey's 'Obsessed' Video: A Dig At Eminem Or Not? Clip, which premiered Wednesday night, certainly seems directed at Slim Shady.
By James Montgomery
Mariah Carey tends to do things in a big way — and the video for "Obsessed," her new single, which debuted Wednesday night on "America's Got Talent" (the show hosted by her husband, Nick Cannon) is no exception.
While Carey hasn't commented and Cannon has hedged, "Obsessed" seems to be a pretty clear dig at Eminem, who grabbed headlines earlier this year with his song "Bagpipes From Baghdad," on which he claimed to have had a relationship with Carey (which she has denied) and warned Cannon to "back the f--- up," because he wanted her back.
"Obsessed" contains verses that certainly seem directed at Eminem, addressing his admitted former drug problems ("It must be the weed/ It must be the E/ 'Cause you be poppin' "), and in the video, she dresses exactly like him, right down to the baggy sweats and aggro posturing — although she's also sporting a fake goatee, which to the best of our knowledge Em has never rocked. At clip's end, her pseudo Em is crushed by a speeding bus while attempting to snap a picture of Carey.
And though Cannon has denied that Carey is aping Slim Shady in the video, ("I don't think she would take her time," he said. "My wife doesn't beef. She's Mariah Carey. She's not beefin', she's a vegetarian"), I think we can all agree that there's at least a touch of Em in her performance, even if she doesn't actually look like him (she actually kinda looks like some sort of weird combination of Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda and Cha'ka from "Land of the Lost"!
Either way, the "Obsessed" video is still plenty big — shot at New York's Plaza Hotel, directed by "Rush Hour" dude Brett Ratner — and plenty glossy. In a lot of ways, it's like her other videos, only with an emphasis on comedy (check the adoring gazes her Em dopplegänger flashes while lavishing Carey with a hair dryer). Which means that it might actually signify the return of "Touch My Body" Mariah — remember the video with "30 Rock" star Jack McBrayer?
So, subtlety or no, "Obsessed" seems to speak for itself ...

Can we just say - the song is not doing well on CHR radio as we'd like it to be, but it's doing well on Rhythmic & Urban? Is everyone happy with that?

first post YAY!!!
anyways....LOL to those who think "maybe if the video had a storyline the downloads would be higher" lol...um...no. I LOVE the song! Don't get me wrong, i play it over and over. But i think she has crossed into Janet/Madonna/Celine/Whitney territory OFFICIALLY. Over 40 means too old for mainstream pop. Sucks but it's true. In fact, i don't think she'll ever have another #1 again. Divas in this catagory get ONE chance per album and then that's it. You don't get 2 singles. You're all gonna have to wait for the next album for another potential #1. Madonna hit #1 at 42 years old, Mariah can too. Just not with this album. Hell, even Cher hit #1 at 52 years old. It can happen. But not with 2nd single. We'll see...

^Great update! Pop is going to come around. As the adds date get closer we'll see more spins and new stations. Yes, am mentioning the adds date becuase that does matter, because if it didn't then what would be the point of it. Ofcourse, not every station waits for the offcial date, that's why we have spins right now, but a lot of them do follow it.
