Not necessarily lowest chart position, but based on past chart progress, which song will be the least successful on the charts?
"Tomorrow" - Lillix
"Iz U" - Nelly
"With You" - Jessica Simpson
"A Toast to Men" - Willa Ford
"Addicted" - Enrique Iglesias

"A Toast To Men" and "With You" are already failing.
"Iz U" and "Addicted" should do decently.
"Tomorrow," I have no idea, but I don't expect it to do well.

Definitely Willa Ford, her song was destined to flop from the beginning.

Willa Ford. This one is going nowhere. She hasn't had a hit since "I Wanna Be Bad" and I don't see her having a hit with this song. The rest I can see being hit singles.

I am surprised so many of you jumped on Willa automatically. Now, of course, I do think it will flop majorly, but I also think "Tomorrow" - Lillix "With You" - Jessica Simpson these two dont have a flying chance in hell. It was hard for me to decide between those three  |

I have to go with "With You" by Jessica Simpson. I haven't heard it, but from its song title, I'm assuming it's a ballad. The song has a lot of strikes against it already.
1) It's Jessica Simpson, the wannabe pop princess. She's only had two, maybe three, hits in her career, and none of them were major smash hits that lasted a long time.
2) Her latest album has flopped.
3) Her latest single, "Sweetest Sin," has also flopped. The video didn't even make TRL (to my knowledge).
4) It's bubblegum. Bubblegum has essentially died.
5) It's a ballad. It takes a mighty good ballad to become a hit song. And from what I've heard of her music, this one won't be very good quality wise or catchy-ness wise.
6) Competition with the other pop-princesses. Mandy Moore's "Have a Little..." is on its way to becoming at least a minor hit. Britney's "Me Against the Music" will probably be a flash in the pan hit, big explosion, and whimpers off. And Christina's songs are still being played on moderate rotations at radio. I don't think any radio station will have room for her - especially since very few had room for "Sweetest Sin."
The only thing going for Jessica is her TV show, but, I doubt that'll help her much.
Lillix's song has at least made TRL. Nelly's will be a hit on urban radio. Willa's won't be a hit, but has a better chance than Jessica's. Willa's song is probably going to be whorish, so, radio stations will play it out of sheer interest for a little while. Enrique's might be a small hit.

Jessica Simpson's With You is more of a midtempo ballad.

I don't know why everyone is saying Willa when she doesn't have anything to lose. It's not like she's under Atlantic Records anymore so it's all up to Lava to push her. I don't even know if the song officially went for adds on Oct 1. Plus, I had a dream today that Willa's song was a hit.. so I don't think it's gonna flop. I can imagine radio stations blaring "Here's to the men who pass on us.." "A Toast To Men" has already beat the latest from Britney, Enrique, Limp Bizkit, and No Doubt on some station's new song battle. I picked Jessica. A song that has warmth but will be lost on the radio. Lillix will flop but their song is alllllrite. |

Man... did we ever look foolish there... who would've thought Nelly would lose his bullet without even making top 50 at pop, while Jessica makes top 40 and Willa's almost top 50?
Shows how unpredictable the charts are.

"Iz U" recently lost it's bullet making it Nelly's biggest flop to date I think. "With You" seems to be gaining steam , "A Toast To Men" is also doing better than expected. As for "Tomorrow" I have no clue because I am no a Lillix fan. |

Gees, the expectations mustve been EXTREMELY low... She came out of the gates without having any new material for more than a year (and "Willa Was Here" only had two hits). She didn't have anything to lose with "A Toast To Men;" I don't think anybody was expecting it to be huge... but Willa has proven the majority of people wrong again! |

I could've also meant "Santa Baby (Gimme Gimme Gimme)" :). But "Did Ya' Understand That" was a sizeable hit. Some radio station said "Better than 'Bad'!" on the Hitmakers' Discovery Highlight. :)'
Isn't it funny how Lillix has the least votes (tied with Enrique) yet it's the lowest one on that charts! Haha @ Lillix.

Willa Ford proved us wrong, sistas! She is a mega star right now. She is currently shooting a TV show and featured in the Jane magazine subscription ad; her Christmas single "Santa Baby (Gimme Gimme Gimme)" is bound to be a radio airplay favorite again this holiday. She will also appear as a celebrity in the 2005 video game "Playboy: The Mansion." Earlier this year, Willa packed her shit and left Lava Records' ass because they weren't giving her the proper respect. You go girl!

With You made it on TRL I think it did hit #1 for a day or two. 4. She has been very popular this year (her best year yet) and got the most good publicity out of any female artist this year. |
