I think this is the worst song on the album. It's lazy, tired, derivative and pretty much everything that is wrong with pop today. That said, it'll probably do well on CHR because PDs don't care about any of that. It's just strange that she would follow a great pop song like Battlefield with this... thing. But don't you think SOS is just a perfect title for the current mood ?

Really really excited about this getting bashed on here, because that means it's going straight to #1!

But don't you think SOS is just a perfect title for the current mood ? Not really. I'm not one of those "OMG JORDIN IS FLOPPING" people. She sells slow to begin with and will need a hit to sell her album, just like last time. Jive may be frustratingly cheap, but they're not stupid enough to completely miss the boat with Jordin's sales potential. If anything, the cheapness of the Battlefield video pretty much tells you that Jive is keeping costs low because they know she won't set the world on fire with album sales, but they're determined to make a profit anyway. If any label can do that, it's Jive "Only If It's Free" Records.

OK, when I saw this in the Jordin album thread I laughed my ass off. Funny as hell. Then I saw it in the Battlefield single thread and chuckled a little. But this one too? Jokes aren't funny when they're desperate.

It had to be done. It's motivation to all Jordin st.ans to go buy the album and promote the CD, cuz if you don't she might end up serving up Big Macs with C-error :S

Yeah, because if Jordin works at McD's, then CiCi will act all good because she's been working there longer and knows how to do everything!

This song is stupid much like, say, that Ting Tings song, but it is pretty catchy. Again, just like the Ting Tings song. So I think it will do okay for her. I like that she gets to show a little 'tude on this one.

I really hope that this does well and sustains the album sales. A song is a song, and if it does well, people will be curious to see what the rest of the album holds and buy it.
These threads, in fact, the last to pages have put such a dump on my mood and outlook. Why must people invade threads for no reason whatsoever, to trash and artist, and post silly pictures and crude jokes, with no consequences?

25 spins so far this week with 95,000 audience impressions. Hopefully this does well as a single. These pre-spins, however, are nice before the adds date, which I'm not quite sure how far away that is. Hopefully it continues to get spins before the adds date. :)

The pre-spins are great news, and SOS doesn't even have an adds date yet!

I hope so. But could this just become another A Little Not To Over You? Davids album wasn't selling that well, Jive released ALTNOY and it bombed completely. I hope this isn't the case here.

ALTNOY was too close sounding to Crush. Battlefield and SOS are total opposites, and Jordin has established herself on CHR radio. These are two different scenarios.

Where did Goodbye peak? I could see this doing about as well as that song, but not much better. I think this is a case of 10-15 or >40, and which side it ends up on depends on how DJs feel about it and how they feel about Jordin. We know they like Jordin, because she has a good radio track record. But we don't know how well they like it. If they like it as much as the non-Jordin fans on this board, I don't think it's looking too positive.
The label was smart enough not to release Young and in Love despite all the fans praising it last era. It surprises me they chose this one this time around. SOS seems to me like the YAIL of this album.

'Goodbye' peaked at either #12 or #13, I believe.

^^ I believe Goodbye peaked at #12.
I have a feeling that Z100 will jump on S.O.S. when it's released. Then hopefully other markets will follow lead.

Young And In Love would have been huge! The non-jordin fans don't like any Jordin songs. That's why they're not fans.
