They better work it better this time ... and they have a REAL smash to built on, this time around! They need to release the next single like the day after the "Hand" peak on the radio ... #1 that is. I hope they won't sit and wait for the song to leave the top 20 before send the next one to the stations! That's exactly what I'm fearing. They have to release "Who Knew" while U + Ur Hand is on top. Don't wait for it to fall...which is why her performance on Idol in 2 weeks will be perfect for "Who Knew." Perfect re-introduction. I just KNOW this song will be a smash. I know it. My question is...what is she going to follow "Who Knew" with? Shoot a video for LWTH? Remake a video for LMAIM? Or release Nobody Knows? We'll see what happens...

Release the new single "fuck U B!tches, I Am On The Top Of The Charts, Aga!n" ... Ew, nevermind ... it looks more like a Fall Out Boy song.

I think the timing for WK in AI is better NOW... but also adds date should be moved to May!! It's a risk to re-release WK, but worked properly it can succeed!! Hope next single is NOT Nobody Knows, THAT would DEFINITELY flop...

I think "Cuz I Can" would make a good follow-up single for WK. Although maybe not because it's a little . . . rough for pop radio.
I also wish LMA and Runaway and LWTH and IND would be singles. This is an extremely radio-friendly album, lol.

HEY, guys, as a good P!nkch I finally did my homework!! Tonight I listened to most of the tracks you have mentioned as possible singles!!! Let me rank them: 1) Long Way to Happy 2) Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely) 3) I'm Not Dead 4) Cuz I Can 5) Runaway 6) Nobody Knows
LWTH is a very good song, hope it becomes her next single... if WK is in danger, they should promote this one!! LMA is good, too (its video is nice with her acrobacies), but I wouldn't consider it as a followup to the Hand, because they are similar... similar sound, although the chorus is less aggresive/strong than U+UH, but both are kind of angry songs, with plenty of fucks, and also with the emphasis on "TONIGHT" in the chorus, but this could work as a subsequent single. CUz I Can is interesting, but yeah, too much for radio; instead IND shows rock music and very good, controlled, harmonic vocals. Sounds good. Very good album!!! Lots of potential. Go for the second round, Pink, you can do it!!

"Who Knew" definitely deserves to be a hit. There are other more radio-friendly songs on the album, but this is an amazing track that I hope will succeed.
Though there are a few songs I have yet to listen to, I think that "Long Way To Happy" should definitely be released after this. That's just begging to be released.

I would still love to see DMP pushed as a single. I'd laugh my ass off if it went top ten or better.

There are numerous reasons why this didn't take off last year. This time, with a smash on her hands and with her label, HOPEFULLY supporting her, this can take off.

I dont think the label is that stupid and wouldnt support this so I think all we have to worry about is people liking it.

This song is a sure-fire hit. I was shocked it didn't blow when it was first released.
Anyway, with the exposure she has now, I think it will work.

The adds date should be moved up from 6/26, but if it starts taking off more in sales following the Idol performance, maybe some stations will start spinning it.
Were there any top 40 stations that played WK a LOT when it initially was released? I know it only peaked in the 40s or so at pop radio (from what I remember)...

No I only asked that because being in OZ and only hearing the buzz on the forums, it's hard to tell if she's back or she just got lucky. It'll be the next single that will really cement her comeback WHEN it takes off.

I didn't know there was a Bimbo Jones remix to this too. I'll probably switch over to that when I go to chart this song again even though I love the original. It got to #9 on my chart last year.

I still love this song and hope it does better the second time around. I wish it wouldn't have taken over a year for Pink to get a hit off of this album.
