There is a strong chance that IIHY will be the next single, Adam has mentioned it though we know its up to the label. But looking at his album, don't see RCA looking at too many other singles which aren't that pop leaning. Unless they go with Sleepwalker. But I suspect after this single, it might be too similar in tempo, so yeah. They have got to release Sleepwalker as the fourth single, love that song and I can see it doing very well.

^I LOVE THAT SONG! Better than "Whataya Want from Me"! But theyu either need to re-release "For Your DEntertainment or release "If I Had You" before that one becomes a single! BTW AMAZING UPDATE! Lets hope OHP spins it a lot tonight!

"Sleepwalker" NEEDS to be a single but they probably want an uptempo between WWFM and SW.
I know "Music Again" doesn't really fit the mainstream but it's different, catchy and kick-@$$! IICH is the obvious uptempo pick but is it a little too....gay? For Top 40? What about "Fever"?
Sleepwalker will be 4th and if they want to go for a 5th, it could be Fever, IIHY, MA (depending on what 3rd is) or even something like "Pick U Up".

Music Again would be a kind of risky choice, but it's so bad ass and so catchy that I think it would do well. Plus, they're advertising it on the cover of the CD, so the odds are good that it'll be a single.
I hope they re-release FYE here. It's so good :(
Pick U Up is my choice for the last single, with Sleepwalker and IIHY as the next single.

Music Again has grown on me a lot, it's one of my favorite songs on the album now, but I don't see it as a single. They should release If I had you next and then Sleepwalker. I don't see Fever doing that well, but you never know.

I heart "Music Again" but I agree it'd be a risky single. However, if it did manage to break through on radio, it would probably be huge. I really, really hope WWFM becomes a big hit, because if it does, radio would probably be more willing to give something left-of-center like "Music Again" a chance.

I think Music Again would have been an awesome first single choice. Different yet super catchy and makes a statement. It definitely is a risky single choice, although I think it could have been a risk that really paid off. But I think they blew their chance to try something "different" with the FYE fiasco. They are lucky that WWFM is doing well. So I think If I Had You is the obvious choice for the next single and would be shocked if they choose something else.

I'm insanely curious what they're doing for Adam's WWFM video. The last video this Clayton guy did was for one of my favorite songs Boys Like Girls - "Two Is Better Than One"I'm trying to imagine this video with a gay couple. That would certainly be interesting. It could be really groundbreaking, actually.

I'm so excited for the WWFM music video! It also helps that that Clayton guy is really hot. ;P
I feel spoiled being a fan of Adam, within a span of about 3 months we'll have 3 music videos (Time For Miracles, For Your Entertainment, and now Whataya Want From Me).

Down to #57 on iTunes. He's performing on TV again tomorrow right? That should stop his fall, or hopefully turn it around again.

he is actually holding on pretty good on itunes... i thought he would drop much lower considering his AI is not over 10 million yet and has no video to support the song. happy with the itunes performance this week. it should have a nice debut on hot 100. and the best is yet to come! :)

It IS holding really well. Very happy with WWFM so far, and it'll only get better after more radio play and promo.
ETA-Wow, I just now noticed that WWFM has a +421 bullet. That's awesome!
I also find it hilarious that Adam got his very first triple digit update during the freeze. Hilarious. This is gonna EXPLODE up the charts after the holidays.

And I'm going to :o and when it explodes after the freeze. OHP better spin it tonight too, 'cause based on the spins it is getting from stations today, I think it could have a good update tomorrow too. Not triple digits but any update above 50 during the freeze is good imo. As for the next single, I hope RCA do their homework, use payola or whatever and release a song that the radio would be willing to play for the third single. I don't want another FYE mess to happen again.. and as long as they do that, MA, Fever, or IIHY are all fine by me. Sleepwalker should be single number 4. I think it could do great if it's released around September or October next year.

Just because Adam attracts the media attention it does not mean it costs lots of money.And just because it doesn't cost money, doesn't make it not promo. I've been following idol for 5 years now and I've never seen anyone from the show get this much attention. The fact it hasn't translated into better sales is the only surprise. I've said this MANY times. Adam gets attention becasue he is the first young pop singer to be out at the start of his career in America. When was the last time mainstream America embraced someone like him? He is in unchartered territory with no path to follow which is the main reason why the editor of OUT Magazine and everyone else are in his face telling him what to do. Some people are too thick to understand it
