I actually think this is a song that will do better WW than the US. It's really poppy

MTV just posted the news that 'I Wanna Go' is the next single. A lot of radio stations on Twitter are writing that they will have the single on May 23!so it's gonna be different from the album version?

I think it's better than IUSA as well, but I think it will have a similar level of interest, which will only propel it so far. I think it's pretty much a given that we aren't gonna get any more televised promo from Britney herself, unfortunately.

The exact words were "World Premiere of Britney's new single is May 23" which got me thinking too, but I really hope that they DO NOT put out a remix.

I think it's better than IUSA as well, but I think it will have a similar level of interest, which will only propel it so far. I think it's pretty much a given that we aren't gonna get any more televised promo from Britney herself, unfortunately. If anything, the "controversy" helped propel IUSA, it's just that radios were a little cautious to play it because of that same reason and let's face it, the remix ruined it, so that same tongue-and-cheek controversy ended up being a double edged sword. It peaked in the top 20 because of the sudden iTunes peak after all the talk in the news and all the internet buzz, because radio wasn't enough. With IWG, there's literally no buzz, hype, or interest, and personally I don't think the radio airplay will be enough to propel it. I mean look, Britney's singles haven't exactly been digital smashes this era, the first single, with all the hype in the world managed to barely crack the 1 million mark and the second single, with all the massive radio airplay, 3 TV performances and a much buzzed about remix is having trouble staying in the top 20 on iTunes and outselling the first single, which didn't even sell that much to begin with. What makes everyone think that the third single, a song that will have no promotion and follows the same formula her past singles have had, is going to suddenly crank up the big sales on iTunes enough to propel it to the top? Again, even if this does do well on radio, which at this point we know isn't enough, looking at the big picture this will probably end up underperforming and killing the album's legs. It's a cute song, yeah, and it is catchy, and yeah it'll be played on the radio, but Britney's team needs to release that she needs something different to sell her album. I mean at least the public doesn't care that Ke$ha is a one trick pony, they LIKE that trick, and they keep buying her songs. Britney's single sales are declining and she refuses to promote, so if they can't release something else the public can connect with, or at least TRY to have them connect with it, it'll only go down from here.

^IWG could be a momentum burner, but it will eaisly go gold, and has a good shot at going platnium. i think after IWG they should do a re-release, as that would add a ton of hype to the project, and then she could have a 4th single do well. plus the new cd could be released in like november = xmas slaes. it could do very well for brit

Did you read the article? It says "according to Breathe Heavy," and that her label has not confirmed it yet. Not saying this isn't the next single, but that hardly makes it 100% official.

Let's be honest, IUSA just wasn't that hot of a song. The controversy was the main selling point of it, whereas this is just ear candy to the max. I agree with sn00kzmonster about releasing something different to sell her album but this song is so undeniable that it could possibly do the trick.
TTWE being so huge on radio leave this is a very good position radio-wise; as for digitally....she has to really BRING it in the video if she's not going to promote. She should get Melina to direct it.

AWESOME!
This is my second favorite song off the album (only behind TTWE).
Perfect single choices btw. HIAM, TTWE and IWG are the ONLY songs I really like off her new album.

As much as I LOVE this as a single- because of how clear of a hit it is- am I the only one that doesn't actually personally like the song? I mean it's cute and all but it's not something I want to repeat over and over or blast and dance to it, I don't know I feel like it's lacking something.

This was played at the club the other night and everyone went crazy for it. It's a smash. Britney needs to release this, if she wants to have a shot at the Song of the Summer.

The prechorus is catchier than the actual chorus...

It's TRUE!! Hooray! Get that summer hit, girl! I don't think this will smash as hard as TTWE, but I think a chart run of at least IUSA levels is likely! :)

YES IT'S CONFIRMED! Cannot wait for this to smash all summer long. "If U Seek Amy" is amazing, stay wrong everyone else. This. Even though it's burned on me through the years, it's still amazing.
