As a great pop song, it should go to #1. I am guessing around the 10-15 range though.

It's goin' to N0.1 on POP. lol... Then again with absolute garbage like Laffy Taffy in the top 15 I guess this is a possibility... CHR/Pop is in shambles at the moment... How can you compare crap like "Laffy taffy" to a great pop song like this?

On Pop or Hot 100? By POP I mean Mediabase Top 40 and R&R. It has no chance of N0.1 on Billboard, I'd say No. 10 or bottom tier Top 10 (10-9-8-7-6). Kelly is a radio queen and I don't see that changing with this song. It speaks right to her core audience, plus it's fun and should have some excellent remixes.

Sorry about the crappy quoting, my puter is acting funny.

I LOVE this song from her. It's soo different from anything that's been out there in ages... I really hope it's a big hit for her, because if so, it should do even more to create her own identity.

I think this would easily be a #1 if it wasn't the 5th single. I still think it will go top 10, but probably not top 5, though I'd love to be wrong in this case.

I've always loved this song - excited to see how far up it goes. I'm not one to make predictions so i'll leave it at that.

That's the word I was looking for...ordinary. This song is ordinary. I still haven't grown to like this song. Very mediocre which is usually appropriate for a fifth single. Thanks... I was afraid I was gonna get stuff thrown at me from all of the Kelly fanatics here... This song is actually one of my top 3 on the album and I absolutely love it live, but I had the same thought as you when I heard it on KIIS yesterday. It almost seems as if they adjusted the levels of it a little and "dulled" it down. If I recall correctly, they did something like this with MI also.

How can you compare crap like "Laffy taffy" to a great pop song like this? I wasn't comparing Laffy Taffy to Kelly... I'm simply using them to illustrate the weakness of the CHR/Pop chart right now... it's easy for a great song to get top 5 and a decent (no, not great song) by Kelly to go top 15 or 10...

So nobody knows why Z100 is playing Gone instead of Walk Away? I heard them play it two more times today. It doesn't seem like Z100 to be so out of the loop with singles like that. Walk Away is the better song in my opinion so I hope they get on the ball.

I think Walk Away is a better song quality-wise, but pretty much all of my friends who listen to mainstream music ( but arent as into Kelly as I am) say they prefer Gone because its catchier. Walk Away definitely grows on you though...I just hope that radio plays it enough so that the majority of the population feels the same.

I'm not worried... Gone's number of spins on Z100 is holding steady... I think we'll see them switch over after the Christmas season. Plus, maybe they're getting requests for "Gone" from people that aren't as "in the know" as us and think it's the next single - because that's what the station said.

Oh I'm not worried either, I'm sure they'll eventually switch over.
I just thought it was odd that the biggest station in the country wouldn't know that the single changed to WA. Or maybe they do know and they're not going to start playing it until after the holidays like you said.
Hey, maybe they can release both Gone and Walk Away at the same time and as a double A-side single. Wishful thinking anyone? :) I mean it wouldn't hurt the album at this point to take a chance, throw both songs against the wall and see which one sticks more.
I still think WA is catchier than Gone, plus it has a much funkier/spunkier feel to it; I could see WA rising and falling fast, yet still peaking high. Who knows, that could even leave room open for Addicted as a final single.

Thank you to John for ticking me off in Ashlee's LOVE thread so I would do some research!
Some very interesting info...
On its Adds date, BTHE was #59... On its Adds date, BOY was #44 with a bullet of 224
Walk Away still has more than 3 weeks until its Adds date yet it's already #45 with a bullet of 269... plus it's having to compete for time against Christmas music!
This single is doing very, very well so far!!

I don't care for either song enough to research them, though as I've said I LOVE Kelly's stuff... just don't think this song is going to do as well as the previous 4 as it isn't as good or catchy as they were...

I think it will explode much faster than her previous singles, but I don't think it will have the long-term success as they all had. I still think this will go top 10. I think this will be another "Miss Independent," which rose quickly, peaked quickly, and then fell quickly. Although, this time around she will not peak at #1 for 8 weeks. How many weeks was "Miss Independent" on the chart? I believe all of her songs off of this album have beat it.

^"Miss Independent" was on the chart for 22 weeks and yes, ALL of the singles off "Breakway" have beat it in longetivity. "Because Of You" should beat it as well. It's still top 3 and not falling that quickly.

Even if Walk Away does fall quickly, I would love to have a Miss Independent happen with it.

this is an awful awful song because this is coming from such delightful and surprise hits run starting from breakaway to because of you.
miss kelly should have ended her reign on the pop charts with something like a good song.

Most people I know adore it, so Im not worried about it being perceived as a "bad song" Too bad you dont like it, because I have a feeling this will go out with a bang (especially with the video!!!)
