After the performance of the first three singles, you'd think this would be faring a little better than it is. It's not my favorite of the singles, but it's good, nonetheless. Maybe the theme is keeping radio at bay- burning down a house isn't the most friendly of radio fare. :)

I love the Funhouse album, but I never really liked this song. I was shocked when it was chosen as a single. BI or IAYF would have been better choices.

I'd just like to know why Z100 never added this. It's radio friendly and comes from an artist with 5 back-to-back top 10s...

^I would say the countdown is a good hook. Also don't forget the "do do do do do do do" parts.

For me, the pre-chorus is the hook, as well as the bass line and guitar riff throughout the song. I especially love the guitar in the chorus. I find this song immensely catchy.

What's the deal with Pink and Z100. Is there an underlying issue. For an artist of her stature I don't get it. When they finally do play her songs the response is always good. But it is the getting them to play it part that seems to be the problem.

This didn't do well most likely because it didn't get good response... therefore they didn't add it. hahaha.

But it is the getting them to play it part that seems to be the problem. They were very supportive of all of her other songs this era, they just weren't feeling this I guess. This probably would've gone top 20 if Z100 had added it. What's the deal with Pink and Z100. Is there an underlying issue. For an artist of her stature I don't get it.

Yeah, they still had Sober, PDLM and So What on rotation through-out this song's run lol

Is Pink releasing "I Don't Believe You" as the fifth single in the US? I still hear Funhouse quite a bit locally.

It's a good album track, but I was surprised it was picked. I LOVE BI and think that would have done better, but IAYF would also have been a better choice. My favorite is IDBY, but I'm not sure that would do much at radio. I think it's my all time favorite P!nk song, and that's saying something.

Dbhmr, we have similar tastes (in everything that isn't Carrie ). IDBY made me a P!nk st@n. I'm not full-blown yet, but I'll get there. I have like 20 different artists to st@n for right now.

I'm not sure how it would do as a single though.. could either do really good or really bad.. As a 5th single, it wouldn't do well, I think. Especially after two semi flops. It's by far the best song on the album though, IMO. I'm so glad it got released somewhere at least!

How was Please Don't Leave Me a semi-flop? #6 on CHR is a semi-flop?

Yeah this is the only "flop" off the album so far.
This song pretty much ruined everything.

As a 5th single, it wouldn't do well, I think. Especially after two semi flops. you are talking about "Funhouse" & ???????????? ... lets see, we have to go aaaaaall the way back to 2003 to find the 2nd semi flop :)

"I Don't Believe You" next please.
And if they feel that it's too slow then go for "It's All Your Fault"
But with "Funhouse" underperforming they may just end the era.

Well it really wouldn't HURT to send out "I Don't Believe You" for adds. We need a good ballad like that on the radio. Besides, she already has a music video for it. What harm would it cause?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! No ballads, please! It's difficult enough to find good music during the last few reporting weeks of the year without having people get the idea to push ballads down our throats.
