They should not wait until October but hopefully radio will show some love to Pink this time ... and it will be well deserved, I think!

I wonder what made her change her mind about releasing this. This kind of just popped up out of the blue.

I'm confident that there will be a fourth UK single now, U+UH is having a really positive effect on the album sales!

If this song fails on US Radio (which I am praying it does not), then I blame whoever chose "Who Knew" as the second single. While "Stupid Girls" was not a HUGE hit...it still had radio and video airplay. People knew it was Pink's new song and it was, IMO, a low to moderate hit for her. Now, had U + UR HAND been chosen as the second single instead of WK, then I believe this whole era would have been different. I think if that happened, it would kind of (and I'm not comparing artists, just airplay/chart scenarios) been like Britney Spears. Her first single off "In The Zone" was "Me Against The Music feat. Madonna" (which in sales/airplay wise- I am comparing MATM to SG by Pink)...then she follows it up with TOXIC which was HUGE! I believe U + UR HAND could have had the same success or MORE like Britney's Toxic did as her follow-up single. Then we would be looking at greater album sales for "I'm Not Dead" and she could have released at least 6 singles from this album when it is all said and done. Anyway, at least we here in the USA are getting this song and I really hope it does well, as it deserves to!

If there's a fourth single in the UK and we get a video, please please please let her be smart and choose Long Way To Happy or Nobody Knows.

The song was great and a HUGE hit elsewhere. You never know ... You just make a single choice and wish it will work. Sometimes it does, sonetimes not. One thing is for sure ... "Who Knew" NEVER got what it deserved here in US.

Sure someone is to blame. Whether it be Pink or her record label for not releasing U and Ur Hand first, LET ALONE SECOND...both were VERY BAD choices. Everyone I know, every review I read, every thread-I would say that 95%-LOVE U + UR HAND! For it not to be released as the LEAD SINGLE was a BAD choice. Shame on them. But to not release it as the follow-up single to Stupid Girls was a REALLY poor choice. It is the most radio friendly song on her CD and the one everyone loves and wanted as the first single! I do like "Who Knew" as well, but feel it should have been a single AFTER U + UR HAND!

I knew U + Ur Hand needed to be the 2nd single the minute I heard it. My thoughts were only confirmed when Stupid Girls was "peaking" and I was getting requests in my club for U+Ur Hand. People have requested U+Ur Hand and Maneater all summer, and Nelly Furtado was the smarter of the two.

DJ Chaotic: I don't follow Nelly Furtado, but I did like Promiscuous! I have never heard Maneater yet. PM?
Thanks

Mike79-I agree, but we have been saying the same things since Who Knew became a single and flopped off the charts. No way to go back in time and fix their screw ups. I am guessing we will have to wait for a new album for her to have a hit in America...and hope they dont screw everything up again.

6 singles is wwwaaayyyy too much. If Gwen's album got to 6 singles, this album could've easily gotten that far as well. Too bad it most likely won't get there. :(

Gwen's last 2 singles from that album majorly flopped, and "Cool" was a hit, but not near as big as the previous three singles.

"cool" was wayyyyyyyy bigger than the first single "what you waiting for" -.- Okay, then the first single wasn't big...still leaves us at the same point. I didn't/don't pay much attention to Gwen. But "Cool" is a great song. And I'm so glad Pink won a VMA this year. She deserved to be nominated for Video Of The Year at least, but Best Pop Video is just fine :)

Gwen's last 2 singles from that album majorly flopped, and "Cool" was a hit, but not near as big as the previous three singles. What are you talking about? WYWF flopped as did Crash in the US. Singles 2, 3, 4, and 5 were hits.

www.arjanwrites.com/arjanwrites/audio file of Pink at the press room of the vma's after winning her award. she confirms "U + Ur Hand" is the next US single and claims that "Dear Mr President" will never be a single although Europe wants it to be lol.
