I still feel like I am in bizarro world when people expect or think that Kesha and Rihanna are the same case as Christina. Like Younger hottest pop stars of the moment that have ruled pop radio for years Versus Aging pop star who hasn't had a hit in 6+ years could not be said to have ruled pop radio since a decade ago and is trying to make a comeback after one of the biggest flops in history. It just seems so incredibly random and weird that people are making a direct comparison between the three artists lol. I've never understood this comment. Her album still opened with 110K. It's hardly a Nelly Furtado level flop. Therefore I still think she has some goodwill with pop radio. She has just been overrun by several artists putting out similar music to her; most of which are more popular.

99+% of recording artists would kill to have her kind of presence 13+ years into their career.

So you literally do not understand why anyone would think that a Kesha or Rihanna song may move up faster than a Christina one in 2012? Alrighty. Once again, bizarro world for me! I never, ever, ever expected it to wildly explode straight to #1 with absolutely zero promo like the most current, biggest pop stars right now. I guess I am the strange one for thinking some rebuilding needs/needed to be done!

To me I simply disagree. Sure she has a mountain to climb, but I still think her status plays as an advantage in comparison with someone who hasn't had a hit for years, or one hit wonders.....her digital presence hasn't particularly propelled pop radio to eat this song up.

This better f**king out peak "Not Myself Tonight." Come. On. As much as I think this isn't the right song, I hope it does outpeak NMT too. This song truly is a lot better and she really doesn't deserve another flop era. Even if this flops, I don't think she's over. I honestly think that with a better song as single #2 she can come back the right way. I still have hope.

I don't think Bionic was as a big a flop as people make it out to me. I suppose it was embarrassing in the sense she got dragged back in forth for the media throughout the whole era, but its commercial performance wasn't really a shocker. No one had been checking for her for years at that point, the only people who were shocked by the numbers it did were those who kept denying that.

I wonder. Does anyone have any information on callouts for this song?? Those should come out quite soon, right? Maybe radios are waiting results to increase spins

It could still rebound. It's not over until the fat lady sings probably not the right analogy to use in this thread.

I'm really surprised this is flopping! I think if it was released during any other time it would go at least top 10 but there is too much competition right now.

I'm getting a major second wind with this song...I love it, and I think it's actually better than the other big-name singles that have come out recently. Hope it can overcome this hurdle and become a modest hit.

It helps that "Your Body" actually has a hook, "Not Myself Tonight" didn't.

LOL I don't know if we've ever seen eye to eye on anything, but I've never agreed with you more than I do now. Your Body stood out to me from the start, the others all fall flat in many respects.
