I love this song and don't know why. I think she'll do fine with one more single. She can work this one for a while, it will do even better once IKAG gets totally out of the way. Idon't know about that next single go. By they she should just be able to coast a little anyway. Good for her, she's been at it for a while looking for her break.

^LOL....I would say IKAG is pretty much out of the way now considering it's already outpeaked it in spins.

Well IKAG was a bigger hit overall cause it hit #1 on the Hot 100 which HNC probably won't and is about to go 3x platinum! I predict that TOY will go at least Top 10 on CHR and Top 20 on the Hot 100.

Yeah, the question is will she be able to match the success of this album? ... many examples out there that just disappeared after having a smash debut album! Anyway, until then .... this smashing monster is moving up to #3 on itunes! I said it before that this would replace Pink at #1 on pop radio ... now I am thinking she might score another Top 3 hit on Hot 100 too, at some point. Unlike some others 2nd single sales , this girl's sales are massive!

The downside of strong sales for Hot 'n Cold is that people are buying the single INSTEAD OF HER ALBUM.

Any album that has such big hits (radio and sales) is a big album for me. We entered the "albums sales are DEAD" era ... hello!!! LOL

I'll probably get a ton of sh* for saying this, but this album reminds me A LOT of Jagged Little Pill. I am *not* claiming it is equal artistically or anything, but it does remind me a lot of the album.

[/poking fun at pulse, not you Nicole. ] I think it's more than sales that contribute to E=MC2 being titled a flop. I think it's the combination of less than stellar sales and underperforming singles. Plus you really can't compare album sales between a veteran and a newbie. PS: I don't consider E=MC2 a flop, but I do believe the project as a whole (outside of Touch My body) underperformed.

Great update, 10,000 is now on.
I can't get into TOY, I'm sure it will be a CHR hit running off the back of 2 huge singles.
I just don't think her vocals suit ballads that well.
I was hoping for OOTB, I love that track.

If this goes #1, will this still be the biggest #2 in history? Because technically it won't be a #2 anymore. (I finally downloaded this. It's kind of fun to listen to every once in a blue moon, a.k.a. '4 Minutes')
