LOL You posted it at 5AM and then edited it at 9AM with more rude remarks after people continued to vote for Mariah. I think it is a little serious that you're that obsessed and it bothers you so much. perhaps your clock is broken.......wow nuts. |

I'm sorry but ILT is only classic here at the pulse mariah board. I had actually thought about my theory so I changed my post while you were typing yours. My point is what explains people who like the song not getting the song this late in the game. I explained the first few weeks sales but what explains the sustained low sales of this single. Get Right is still selling like crazy. Only the fans will download the new single right off the bat. So what I am saying is that the fans are partly responasble for the song not starting out stronger on the HOT DIGITAL SONGS list. Its the avg music buyer that sustains sales over a longer period of time. I'm not arguing that this song is a classic or not. I think it's the single from this album least likely to become a classic, but I agree with Mr. Brightside that it will go down as the single that gave her a comeback. As far as downloads go, first of all, Mariah has one of the most devoted fan bases out there and the fans are doing their job but what are they supposed to do? Download the song 1,000 times? That doesn't even count towards the chart. It's just not helping that the song is so hard to find on iTunes, and not only that, but it's just the radio edit. Jennifer Lopez on the other hand, was on the front page of iTunes for weeks and has a new remix added every week. Jennifer has to worry more about her single only getting half the peak audience impressions of Mariah's single. |

Honestly, I must say I don't think this list is quite accurate as far as "most praised" is concerned.
For instance, I know a majority of members here have given "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" a strong thumbs-up. But a majority of those also admit it's not the best track off of "American Idiot". "Jesus of Seburbia" is considered the best by far, and I've only known one so far who has given JOS a thumbs-down. Not to mention most agree out of the singles so far, "Holiday" is the best.
Also, I'm a little more uncertain here, but, didn't "Breakaway" have the better praise of Kelly Clarkson's two singles from this release, even though "Since U Been Gone" has been well-liked too?
With that said, The Killer's "Mr. Brightside" and U2's "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" are two other releases that have had universal acclaim here and I think deserve to be assembled in a like poll like this.
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

It really doesn't matter if Jennifer only gets half the AI of Mariah's song when J.lo is more than doubling the number of actual sales of her counter part. I will admit I had a very hard time finding Mariah's ILT song. The record company should've done something about that by now. This has been a problem for nearly a month now and sales still haven't increased. I just think people would've went to other places to download the music if they liked the song. |

There are six different versions of "Get Right" on iTunes. I just went and counted. That means she has 6 times as much an advantage of a song with only one version without even taking into account how much harder it is to find "It's Like That". |

Jennifer only had 1 remix added to ITUNES. Actually they just added more yesterday. A remix EP with 4 versions of the club mix. |
