I can't believe this has hung around for so long. I think it may take off!

I really hope so. It's such a strong song.
I can understand Kelly's new song blowing up whilst this isn't ... but Katy Perry's! This is by far superior to that in every element, but Lesley Roy doesn't have the two hits preceding this. Sometimes radio just isn't fair.

Some might chew me out, but I prefer Katy's voice over this guy's...uhhh I mean girl's.

I wish this would take off already. I'm so tired of these tiny increases, just waiting for it to really get going.

Perhaps radio thinks there's no more room for another pop/rock chick at the moment. Pink is a staple, Kelly's back with a sure radio hit and Katy replaces Avril's spot at the moment. It's not a surprise that Lesley gets overlook.

Plus her voice on the verses are VERY unappealing to many people.

I love this girl's voice :) I think it's what the guy from Blue October would sound like if he was a chick. Voices like that are very polarizing. They can get hits though!

You'd be so annoyed if you wrote a song as good as this, and the only thing stopping it blowing up was the singer's voice!

Anyone thinks it's a mistake to go with 'IGIG' as the first single? The album is full of hits and they could've just gone with 'Psycho Bitch' or 'When I Look At You' first. Both songs are stronger than 'IGIG' and shows some personality in my opinion.

I think IGIG was a good first single choice, radio just didn't bite as they should have.

Yeah, I think IGIG was perfectly fine single material. It just was the unfortunate song to be chosen as the first single by a new artist, sorta like the guinea pig. It didn't do very well, but maybe it is helping to pave the way for Unbeautiful to do a little better.

Yeah, I don't think Unbeautiful would even be doing this well without IGIG. I unfortunately don't really think this will end up taking off, but hopefully each single will keep building on the next until she finally has a hit. The worst thing that could happen would be if the label gave up after this single.

^Well I wouldn't blame them, honestly. IGIG, and this are by far the two with the most hit potential on the album, imo. If IGIG didn't take off, and this ends up not either, I don't see how something like Psycho Bitch would.

She has been in the negatives before. Until she is at -100 or so it doesn't mean much. I should know Kellie Pickler's songs always dip into the negatives and come back. I know that is on the country chart but I've seen the same on this chart.
IMO if this is done re releasing "I'm Gone I'm Going" can't hurt :)

She deserved to take off. But she didnt. I guess there isnt room for another pop/rock chick.
