Just because "who knew" worked in other countries, does not mean it will work here. They really need to move on to another song. Looking at it's performance at iTunes, I agree. I think they should go for Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely).

^^^ What makes you think that this is not inside the top 100 songs on itunes? And people need to get use to the idea that this is the next single and it will smash this time around!

I guess Pink will set a new record when this flops twice.

We heard the word 'FLOP" many times for the "Hand" too.
I call it now .. she will score another #1 with "Who Knew"!

"who knew" just failed to get any substantial downloads after getting prime exposure and opportunity for downloads. "Who knew" already flopped in the US once and it wasnt strong enough the first go round. This is a moronic release.

While I rarely agree with you on anything, I couldn't have said it any better myself.

Are you calling a top 100 on digital sales (only 2 days of sales) a failure? Um, NO. People use to see songs like TSE and Don't Matter" increasing their sales a lot after an AI performance but those were already big hits on the radio and top 10 on itunes. I am sure the label's intentions were not downloads (for now) but to introduce the song to the public. First time around, there was no hype to support the song ... now, it's a whole different story! :) Oh well, adds date is only a few weeks away ... we will find out how much of a fop this will end up being soon!

I'm gonna be honest, I agree with SAY IT RIGHT. This might not be a good indicator at all, but AI performances pretty much guarantee a spot in iTunes' top 100.
Since U+UH started making waves at radio, she performed WK TWICE: once on the Today show AND AI yet it still can't make the damn top 100 without struggling.
I say choose another song. Like I said once, this song murdered the era the first time by failing to chart in any American chart and it can't even make a proper "comeback" a year later when Pink is the artist with the #1 song on radio.

For the record, I WANT this to be a hit. I love this song so much, it went #1 on my own chart. But it's just moving too slow again.

Its stupid to re-release this when she has so many other great songs on the album.
And wasnt "who knew" featured on an ABC show EVERY WEEK and it still didnt get a downloads surge? Come on, lets not be blind.

Um, it was on the show's promo clip NOT on the show.
The label is doing a great job promoting it so it can smash its way to the top. I am sure they know a few things more than we all do and I totally trust them after the amazing job they did with the "Hand"!

I was expecting this song to at least be in the Top 100 of iTunes by now too after AI. How long did it take for Big Girls Don't Cry to chart in the Top 100 after Fergie's appearance?

Your opinion and I think you are wrong. The song was on the promo for a reason. Not to sell (as most people don't even know who sings it) but to reach the audience so when it hits radio people will be like "hey, I know this song .. isn't the one from that show ...". :) As I said, I respect your opinion that this will flop but I totally don't think so! We will get the chance to discuss about it again, I am sure!

Both "Who Knew" units combined IS top 100 on itunes. :) Fergie reached top 50 (both units) after her performance. But, Fergie = digital queen ... she could release her climax remix and reach #1.

I said, they are investing on its future success to sell not that they don't want to sell. Anyway, I have no more time to waste on something we will never agree on ... especially when you don't know how to respect somebody else's opinion. Whatever ... call it a flop and we talk in a few months from now, again. :)

#109 on the overall chart Sorry Theo, but I agree with other people. I think they need to release something else. This song has already sold like 300k in sales, that could hinder its performance on the chart.

David, I respect yours and everybody else's opinion and understand the fans concerns as the song didn't perform the first time around.
Again, I believe that this will become another #1 hit for Pink.
