If only Selena had writing credits on this song she would be earning some serious $$$ seems like quite a big radio hit!

HWR is terrible. Their biggest stars could've been HUGE. Several others could've found some success too. Their biggest stars are huge! seriously who hasnt heard of Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Hilary Duff??? plus theyre only teenage artists and can only have so much success because of this! Miley and Hilary both have had triple platinum albums which is HUGE!!

well look at the biggest teen stars of the past decade: Hilary Duff 01 - 05.... Miley Cyrus 06 - '10.... Selena Gomez '11 - present. All HR/Disney acts, there is a reason for this! This is not because of their music careers, though. Hilary because of Lizzie McGuire. Miley because of Hannah Montana. Selena because of Wizards of Waverly Place. Those shows are some of Disney's highest rated ever. These girls have become huge starlets because of those shows, not their music careers. Although, they do have a small number of hits under their belts, that's not why they're known. (Miley is a slight exception because Hannah Montana was a musical series.) Seriously, the only top 20 hits between all three of those girls: So Yesterday Come Clean See You Again 7 Things (only 1 week inside top 20) The Climb Party in the U.S.A. (the only #1 on this list) Naturally Can't Be Tamed Who Says Love You Like a Love Song -Only 4 of these are top 10 hits. ***There's only one other top 20 hit from a HR records "Disney" artist. "Come Back to Me" by Vanessa Hudgens. Plain White T's have done decently, but that's really more because "Hey There Delilah" was a surprise smash hit, so their name is well known to the AC crowd, who are very supportive of their artists. Jesse has had success thanks to really the male teen affect. See: Justin Bieber Yes ok it was because they got their names out through those shows, but what im saying is Nick stars never do as well when they crossover, icarly made Miranda a huge star with tonnes of ratings, but what happened with her music career? not a lot, because she isnt with Disney/HR... my whole point was that Nick cant market their acts right to make it to the big time and become proper teen stars. Plus, i wasnt even talking about how successful they can have their singles on radio as teen artists dont do well there anyway, i was saying that HR are good when it comes to selling the albums of their leading lady!

Sales for this album were up 248% this week with black friday, according to this article: www.cambio.com/2011/12/05/wowza-selena-gomez-album-sales-shoot-up-by-248-during-black-fr/Which is fantastic but not as much as I first thought, i.e. if she sold 10,000 last week this week it would be 35,000 is that right? just glad the album went gold and LYLALS went platinum, as for the person above saying my dilema in February, i think that would be a bad idea because look at LYLALS which was released in July and is just now peaking/smashing in december, let HR give LYLALS time to cool off, then for HTL to get an adds date and start picking up as it hasnt even charted yet, HR have promised to give HTL an adds date aswell apparently, i think My Dilema in April but i doubt she'll get a fourth single with HR, i was surprised she got a third to be honest.

To be fair to Hollywood records, they dont seem to good with radio, but one thing they can do is sell an album, and make good cross-over careers of their stars, due to the relentless marketing from Disney, thats why Nick stars never make the big crossover into multi platform stars, because they just dont have the promotion of Disney. look at how poor miranda cosgrove did with her music career. as much as i like to hate HR they do a pretty good job sometimes.

Does it like cost to have an adds date or something? i dont know why any label would skip having one altogether? I was going to ask that question as well. When a song dosen't go for an add date, does that mean it wasn't officially sent to raido. When a song is added does that mean the station added it to their playlist? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks. I think the answer to your questions are yes for them both, but im not 100% im still getting the hang of all this radio talk lol

The radio plays seem really good, and the sales are also really good as it recently went platinum so how come such a low peak of 35 on the Hot 100??

haha i knew when i read NOSTALGIA as the title of the category that there would be a few Hilary songs in here, this is one of my favorites from her, but thats hard because i actually like every single song she has done i can honestly say there isnt one i dislike, and that is why she is my favorite singer im in love with her sweet sugary voice

This just went gold in the US!!! congrats selena on your third Gold album!! if it had a rerelease in december with new single i would see this going platinum, but i think the total figures will be around 650 - 700k, although it might outsell her previous two albums, because im sure they never went gold this fast, plus she is getting three singles from this album!

I think the thing with Rihannas success is that she sells to both male and female, obviously girls like her songs but both my brothers have her album my mum has her album, i know loads of guys who have her album and in clubs im forever seeing guys wear that TShirt with a large picture of rihanna on, the same photo from loud. so she is popular in both markets, whereas somebody like Britney Spears sells largely to the female market and males might be embarresed to buy a Britney album, but with rihanna (Here in the UK at least) it is perfectly normal for a guy to have her album/songs.

To be fair HR know what they are doing when it comes to their top priority artist, i thought that Ashley Tisdales music career would have maybe been more successful if she had signed with HR but im not sure.

I'm so glad this is doing so well. It's not even one of my favorites on the album -- which is incredibly solid -- but she deserves to be having success like this, so it's very pleasing to see her accomplishing it with this song (and this era as a whole, as it's clearly been handled much better than her first 2 eras). I think thats just because now she is top priority at Hollywood Records, whereas before she wasnt as Miley was, but now that Miley has declined it seems they are focusing on Selena - and it seems to be working as well, she is the biggest teen star right now!

I really like the radar jokes lol, and i happen to like the song, its my third favorite on Blackout, and is really good, the only reason it gets hate is because its been issued so many different times, did i read that it was issued on some international editions of FF?? i thought i read that in a thread somewhere?

I really really truly cant understand how someone would actually like Big Fat Bass, i mean its just awful, Im not sure why people are still putting what they want for a fifth single, because i think its obvious that there wont be one! and is there nobody we could pay to cover up this flop and make the whole thing go away?

i know its a bit unrelated but does anyone else wish Circus wouldve been rereleased in Nov 09 with 3 as its single? instead of the singles collection, i think it wouldve pushed Circus past 5 mil. Of course. They could have tacked on "3" and maybe the songs that were released overseas for "Circus" ("Amnesia", "Quicksand", etc). Why they went ahead and did a greatest hits compilation when she had only released 7 singles since her last compilation made no sense to me. Same goes for "Femme Fatale". Instead of the remix album, I would have loved a re-release with the TTWE remix, her cover of "Burning Up" that she did on tour, "Scary" which she released as a Japanese bonus track, and maybe another song that never made the final cut. I know lol it makes even less sense than Hilary Duff putting out her first greatest hits after only 3 singles... and then releasing another after only 3 more singles.

from Jives point of view, i think it would be a waste of money for them to release a new single, i think no matter what will be released at this point it will flop, it wont raise FF sales, and it will lose the company money... so i think this is it this era, just get britney to finish her tour, shove her in the studio and hope for a new album next november.

How has the video got so little views, when avril's wish you were here has managed to get 35 mil??? i was also wondering how Goodbye Lullaby has sold the same as Femme Fatale worldwide? i consider GL a big flop to be honest but not so much FF....

Whats with all this love for BFB??? i hate it, one of my least favorite britney tracks ever, i even deleted it from my itunes. its just so monotonous, im sure the only lyrics are ''i can be the treble baby you can be the bass'' or ''the bass is gettin bigger'' its just awful, i really want criminal to pick up, but im still wanting IO to be released 5th - if there is one.
