I think this is a good choice for Pop, although it's a bit of a generic Ne-yo ballad. I'm sure it'll go at least Top 20 based off of the success of his past two singles, though.

I love this. Ne-Yo's best ballad since 'So Sick'.

Me too. I'm surprised this seems to be taking off better at pop than it did at urban. No complaints, but I just expected this to be huge at Urban, and just a moderate hit at CHR. Maybe it will be vice versa!

Nice song but it's not very memorable at all.

I wonder if this will have any significant success at CHR/Pop considering it didn't do too well at Urban.

I'm so glad this is released!! I think this could be a big crossover hit for him. And it's a nice wintery song, lol.

It is catchy. The hook stays with you. There are better ballads on the album (such as "Lie to Me,") but none as radio-accessible as this.

Also, I think "Single" would be a good choice for single No. 4.

I don't think that will be released sicne New kids on the block already released their version (although I do love the song and would love for it to be a hit). Wow, shows you where I've been the past few months, I had no idea this was out. I youtubed it. It's too bad they wasted a good song like that, haha, it was kind of weird seeing New Kids singing that with Ne-Yo. My choice for single no. 4 now is ... probably "Nobody." It doesn't have the greatest hook, but it's high-energy. All of the other songs aren't that accessible to pop radio, maybe "So You Can Cry," could be a decent-sized hit. The problem with the rest of the album is there's not standout single like "Closer" and "Miss Independent," which were just crying out to be singles. It's a solid album, don't get me wrong, but, as we've seen, quality doesn't always equal a hit. But anyway, this is about "Mad," hopefully we see some bigger jumps with this after this week.

Neyo's music is so lifeless, but I actually like this.
Sounds like he's sneezing it it lol, "ah-ah-choo".

Stations need to stop bumping spins for "Miss Independent" and play "Mad." I was surprised to see MI bulleted, when they have this smash ready to go.

This is boring as hell. Very disappointing after "Miss Independent" and "Closer".
