Really? So does that mean there could be something different for America or will it be Who Knew for the States as well? I don't get your statement mate. "Who Knew was picked by international......", what's that mean?

YES! what does it means? This will be the overall single, or non-USA single?

It has a good chance of doing well everywhere else but the US. UUH would do AMAZINGLY WELL!

Who Knew was picked by international...... Interesting answer.....lol If I were you, I would be a bit frustrated. Songwriters/Producers work hard to put out the best product possible and when music industry politics get in the way of the best tracks being released, it must leave you shaking your head. Max and Luke know "U and Ur Hand" think it's the best song to release, Clive Davis knows that it would be a hit, research proves it would be big, and we all know on this board that it's a smash....what's the problem here??

Tell me about it.... Yes there most is a good chance that there could be 2 singles. 1 for US and 1 for ROW. The choice as far as I know is U+UH, WK or NK (Is that the ballad? I know that other choice is a ballad)

I think P!nk is trying to do something different then any other pop star out there. I think she is releasing the singles in opposite order then we'd usually see it. So instead of coming out with a big bang she's trying to build her sales.

Stupid Girls charted at #4 in the uk charts!
Who Knew wont get in the top 10 in my opinions!
U + Ur Hand should deffo be single number 2

I love this now, but still think U+UH should be the second single.

"U + Ur Hand" or "Long Way To Happy" please. I agree. I am hoping that the 2md single blows up. It's a shame that SG already peaked. Atleast it went top 20 on pop and the Hot 100

Yes, but SG was just to people know that she isn't dead lol. It wasn't destined to go #1 at all. :)

I would've much prefered it go top ten. Maybe she's pulling an Xtina with a low peaking 1st single than she'll blow the doors off

After finally hearing the full versions of both songs, I actually prefer Who Knew to U+UH. This song actually sounds different than anything I've heard in a while, as opposed to U+UH which sounds strikingly similar to The Veronicas' 4ever.
While this song may not scream SMASH, it's a grower for me. The vocals in the last chorus are outstanding.

WK is actually one of the leaked tracks I have yet to hear :( But I couldn't imagine it being any better than "U & Your Hand"

I'm not all that keen on this song, but funny thing is, after listening to all of Pink's album tracks this weekend, "Who Knew" is the one that's stuck in my head.

I'm also much more of a fan of "Who Knew" and a little surprised at all this love for UUH (which is a decent song).

I love the flow of this song, it's smooth and its burnout rate is low on my meter. I'm glad that Max and Luke worked on this song because I'm almost burnt out on the typical sound of their hits.

99% certain this is the next single in USA too. Interestingly, it tested best too.

The strings bit is what got me to LOVE this song. I loev it. I am now of the belife that will will do very well world wide. Following it up with UUH and LWTH would be amazing as well. But I think this could do very well. Go Pink!

I've just read the lyrics on the web. I'm French, so I don't exactly understand what the song means. Does it talk about death? A friend's death, or a lover's?

This is what Pink said when she was interviewed by MTV: "..."Who Knew" is about the death of friendship. You're best friends forever, and then three years later you haven't seen each other in two years — what happened? You grow apart and people come in and out of your life for different reasons, seasons."
