She needs to call an era. Unless Funhouse becomes a hit by some miracle, she has no buzz to make any impact with a not so radio friendly 5th single ballad. Not to mention the market is just so crowded right now. It will only mess with her incredible track record. Well, I told everyone this song would kill the era on pop. But no one wanted to listen.

Well excuse us for being optimistic. Maybe next time we'll listen to you "all-knowing great one".

Lol, I knew that was coming. The point is, it's annoying to hear a lot of you saying that this has ended the era now, when that was abundantly clear to me from the moment this was announced as the 4th single. It has nothing to do with not being optimistic, just due to this being such an obvious weak single choice.

Only one person has said it has ended the era. if it were such a weak single choice, it wouldnt have gotten this far. theres a lot of fresher material out right now by other artists by way of new releases and re-releases and its that stage in the era where everything is not going to just 'hit'. its the fourth single over a year after the albums release. let's be rational. it has continued to sell the album like every other single and has gotten good feedback like the other singles. itunes sales say otherwise as far as im concerned than what you are implying. because something that the general public does not have ultimate control chose not to make it a bigger hit....we're getting into shades of grey.

Pink's only song to not crack the top 20 on pop is God is a DJ. This is looking more and more like it's going to join that song, as just the 2nd of her career to miss the top 20. And this is coming out of her most successful era in the U.S. since Missundaztood. Opposed to a song like Stupid Girls which came out when she was at the absolute lowest point of her career in the U.S., but still managed to crack top 20. She's one of the biggest names on pop of this decade, there's no reason this shouldn't have been a bigger hit if it were a solid single choice. Plenty of artists that are far lower down on the pop ladder get 4 or 5 hits from an album, so it's not like getting more than 3 top 10s from an album on CHR is some impossible feat . So saying it wouldn't of gotten this far if it were a weak single choice is not true in her case. It's one of her worst performing songs of her career in all aspects. It's tied as her least successful song ever on CHR, and it's only outpeaked 3 of her songs on the Hot 100. Obviously this song was just a weak single choice, that has been proven at this point. And I do have a right to be upset about it, because it's killed this album's momentum in the U.S., when she could've had a good 2 more hits without releasing this.

^Uh, me? And anyone else that cares about her having success would too. It's never a good thing to have the worst performing song of your career on a chart.

Sure. But it's run hasn't endd yet mate. The next few days will be critical sure but after the success of this era, I am not too worried although this article does get me a little tense:
Pink has revealed that she is in no hurry to start recording her next studio album.
The 'Please Don't Leave' singer, who recently confirmed a 'Tour Edition' re-release of 2008 LP Funhouse, admitted that she wants to take more time working on her sixth studio record.
"I've been on this sort of hamster wheel for five records now where I put out a new record every two years. It's worked because I've had things to say, like 'Oops, I've got divorced, let's write an album'," she told Key 103's INemand.
"I'm going to take time and do the selfish artist record first. It will probably an acoustic record."
The 30-year-old, who recorded 'Misery' with Steve Tyler on her second album Missundaztood, claimed that she felt no pressure to record another collaboration.
"That kind of stuff always happens really organically, but I did kind of stalk Steve Tyler a bit," she said.
"The one person that I'd really really like to sing with, just from a vocal standpoint, is Lauren Hill, but I doubt she'd say yes."
The next album may not be too mainstream. I can live with that. If she wants to go there then as long as the music is awesome, I won't complain at all... it's just that it may ruin her momentum in the US and maybe WW, if it's that far out of the mainstream.
But who knows. That will be a while so for now I will focus on this era. I am keen to see how IDBY will do.

I'd take her comments with grain of salt. For a long time, we heard that she was recording a track or two for a possible GH after IND -- instead we got FH! It's funny to hear someone call it a grind to release a CD every two years. I wouldn't be surprised to see something late next year.

Pink never said anything about a GH, that has always been speculation and rumor. Infact she has said she doesn't want to do one for a long time.
She will still be touring with the FH late next year.

Yeah, Pink has said "Greatest hits are for old people". So we probably wont see one from her for a while.
Anyways, an acoustic album huh? I would LOVE that!

at aTunes. It really sucks to have your lowest charting single EVER only reach #22 on pop. Pink must be so pissed. Most 4th singles go straight to #1!

Meh, I hope this isn't peaking. Behind So What, this my 2nd favorite single of the era.

Momentum for this era started dying down right after "Sober". It sold the album magnificently and performed well but the buzz that she had with "So What" evaporated completely. The third single performed well all-around too but by the time the fourth single came around, there wasn't much to propel it instantly up the charts; regardless of what they chose.
I stand by this song as the strongest option for fourth single and it's doing basically how I expected it to. It should be able to sneak into the Top 20 which isn't too bad considering it's a fourth single and momentum really isn't there anymore.

I think a big reason why the buzz died right down, was because right after SW Pink went global to promote. Her US promo was okay initially but died off so completely after SW. Only came back again when the tour started.
Considering this though the album has sold very well for her, or rather very consistently.

NICE ;) I never said her track record isn't impressive. I said just the opposite. It's one of the most prolific of any singer on CHR this decade. Nor did I expect the 4th single to go #1 (though that does happen on several occasions). I just said it's never a good thing to have your lowest charting single, cause it isn't. Her standards are far higher than the average singer. So while a #22 peak may look good in a lot of artist's case, it's not good at all in hers. Misundaztood managed to have 4 top 5's on pop after all. There's no reason this era couldn't and shouldn't have with a stronger single choice.

I agree that she would have gotten four top tenners if say IAYF was released but as someone said in another thread, Pink and her label try and go for diversity when releasing her singles, or rather it appears they do. Look at this album. We've have So What, Sober, Please Don't Leave Me, Funhouse and soon I Don't Believe You. AWESOME set of five singles. But FH may not have been the best choice. In the end but hey, you move on and hope that the next song can do better. I know it won't help her future songs on POP BUT I don't think it will hurt her too much.

Hope this cracks the top 40 on the Hot 100 this weke- audience peak is down slightly from yesterday, though with some of this week's Hot 100 debuts ready to drop next week, maybe it can sneak in? Pink scored four top 40 hits on the Hot 100 (all top 20) from her second album, so if "Funhouse" reached the top 40, she'd match that run of top 40 hits from one album.
