Four pop rock lead singles that all underperformed in the US. Which song do you prefer in hindsight?

How did Never Again underperform when it made Year End 07 list? It did on radio compared to the Breakaway era, but there were several demons that prevented the My December era from reaching its' full potential (*coughCliveDaviscough*). |

The Hot 100 top 8, platinum selling, I C O N I C classic, "Never Again" is factually the only correct choice.

Torn between P!nk, Kelly and Shakira. The Gaga don't belong.
I'm going with Don't Bother, just because that guitar solo slays.

Have to go with "Never Again" here. One of my favorites from Kelly.

Oooohhhh.... this is hard because Trouble is one of my favorite Pink songs (HOW did people let this flop?! Explain!) and Never Again is one of my favorite KC songs. Also Don't Bother is criminally underrated and I live for the final choruses after the slayful guitar solo and bridge... idk if I can pick a fav. But I can definitely pick a least fav. Sorry Gaga! (I was rooting for you!)

1. Don't Bother 2. Never Again 3. Perfect Illusion 4. Trouble The Shakira and Kelly Clarkson choices are my favorite songs by them. "Don't Bother" in particular is one of my favorite songs (and Shakira is my second favorite pop diva <3 ). Now I just have the urge to put it on and blast it.  |

NEVER AGAIN IS LOVE
Don't Bother is also amazing
Trouble is a P!nk classic even if it underperformed greatly, I love it
Perfect Illusion is decent.

How did Never Again underperform when it made Year End 07 list? Never Again had much less of an impact then all of Breakway's singles, a VERY BIG era and Kelly's peak period. It lasted only 16 weeks on the chart, only peaked at a low #20 at Pop & ended at #70 on 2007 Year End Even Walk Away the last single off Breakaway peaked at #12 on the Hot 100 but had a much stronger chart run to end at #45 on the 2006 Year End Mind you that its peak on Pop is very low mainly since all of Breakway's singles made Top 5 on Pop Radio |

Shakira's is actually great, Kelly's is legit putrid, and the other two I'll just forget.

It's funny I didn't like Never Again at ALL back in the day but it's actually a legit jam - should have performed better.

Pink, Kelly, and Gaga are 3 of my absolute favs and all three of those singles are their only ones I'm not really a fan of. So Don't Bother fairly easily, which is actually one of my fav Shakira songs.

"Never Again" and "Don't Bother" are leagues above the other two. Went with Shakira.

Yeah Don't Bother, Never Again, & Trouble are classics to me mainly cause I've heard all of them many times
PL is a good song not Gaga's best though, I don't see it being a classic.
