I'll say #27 on CHR/POP

Lots of hype at first, then died down.
So Im seeing a huge debut but then very small jumps

The song is absolutely terrible.
If there is a god, it will peak in the 25-30 range (radio will be sure to play it at least that much)
I think the hype will push it top 15 though, not top 10 though

Despite the fact that it doesnt deserve to be a hit, a commercial single will be released I believe and her fans will scoop that up in droves. That combined with atleast a top 30 on chp/pop could help it to top 20 on Billboard

Not sure about CHR/Pop, but it peaked at #27 on the Hot 100.

The version with Madonna is already out?
I predict #15, it will have a huge start because of the hype, and it will start slowing down in the early 20's but will end up peaking at #15 weeks later. I really don't know what happens when you get two artists who have had nothing but flops recently and putting them together, will that actually create a hit or will it create an even bigger flop by collaboration standards?

Not to mention that Briteny has been essentially blacklisted by certain stations. I have not heard the song yet, but I just ope it gets a decent shot on pop radio and any other format that it fits. I can't wait to hear it! |

Where is there proof that Britney is blacklisted? Britney fans have been claiming this for years but i see no evidence for it. The reason Britney's songs usually flop is simple, they are not radio friendly, they don't fit in with what's currenty hot. Could you imagine them playing "I'm Not A Girl" right after they played "Shake Ya Tailfeather"? I don't think so. It's not the artist that they are blacklisting, it's her songs.

I have heard "I Can Only Imagine" after "Can't Hold Us Down", so you never know. I do agree though that the songs from "Britney" weren't that great. |

I just heard the version with Madonna, it's kind of a mess. Actually, it's okay. I stick to my prediction
Why is Madonna singing exactly like how she sang in "American Life"? did anyone notice that?

Not making top 10 on CHR/Pop... Madonna ruined the song... If I have to give a more precise prediction, then I will go with #15-20.

I predict that it will have a very similar chart run as Madonna's "American Life" huge gains in the first week and it will get to the 20's but a short stay and gone within a month or two.

The reaction for this song hasn't been good so far. AOL had a poll on what they think of the song and currently the results are...
42% Hate It
33% Like It
25% Love It
I remember when they world premiered the "Boys" remix it had better results than this one! I voted for "I Like It" category.

Disappointing. Madonna ruined a good song.
EDIT - I'm loving this song right now!
I'm gonna change my prediction to #3, even if it does abruptly slow down, I don't really care. I really like the song, even though Madonna still pulls it back a bit.

I think radio might be more receptive then we think and I think it will climb quickly. I think it will reach #4

I have no clue. Could be Top 10 or could die in 30s. I agree that Madonna's part weakens the song.
I'll go with #13.

My radio station WXKS just played this at about 7:30PM today! Someone said it only got its first spin according to today's update. Its in between ok and bad, but I think as I hear it more it will grow on me.

WOA! Why is everyone ripping on Madonna so badly? I actually think her part is one of the better parts of the song. I'll say...
#8.
If "Senorita," what is in my opinion a mess, can make top 10, this can too.

No it can't! Seniorita was just a great song. This song is simply trash but I still think it will grow on me like slave 4 u/rock my world did after they got old.
