Surprisingly, this is already picking up a handful of adds at all three major formats. It goes for adds on February 22. "Ghetto" isn't that good, but it's better than this one. I'm surprised it's pulling in so many pre-impact adds.

This might be a smash. Power 96 has already picked up on it. Hell, some Pop stations are already getting on it. I think it'll do great on Rhytmic, not so much on Urban.

Did Kanye West produce it, or is it just someone else aping him? (Or could it be whoever did that Cam'ron song a few years back "Oh Boy"...forgot who that was)

Just Blaze produced "Oh Boy". I'm not sure who produced "Lonely".

Actually no big producer did this song at all. Akon produced this himself. As a matter of fact, I have the CD and he produced all the songs on Trouble except for one or two. He produced his two previous singles Locked Up and Ghetto. You guys are rite the song is old. The whole CD is old cuz it came out in 2003. Its still the best stuff I've bought in a while. This is the kind of hip hop talent america needs; a decent singer and rapper that can write and produce all their own stuff.

2005 has GOT to be the year of the chipmunks (and it's Kanye's fault! >:(). I can see this as a almost mass appeal hit for Akon. However it's old in some parts of the world.
With this song being a possible single, it's new to us.

It was tied with Ying Yang Twins "Wait" as the biggest jumper of the week at Rhythmic. "Lonely" moves 45-32.

LOL I love this song!
I first heard it back in October but they are really loving this one on Wild 98.7, it was #1 on their Top4@4 every day I was listening.
It's just so funny, the chipmunks. I had the radio on in the house and when my grandmother heard it she was like "What IS this song?" LOL it was funny

I Hope this boosts album sales. So hopefull he can release the joint with G-Unit "ATL to NYC to LA" cause that's the jam His other song was good "Ghetto" is sooo intimate and inspiring to anyone whose been in that situation.

AT FIRST i hated this song but now after a 2nd listen its actually pretty good... better than what I expected from akon I liked "locked up" and "ghetto" but I thought those were the only decent songs he had but this proved me wrong

He has a song with G-Unit? It's official or just some mash-up? It's not on Akon or G-Unit's albums.... I've always liked Lonely, it stands out ebcause it's funny and different, my cousin first told me about it back in the summer, or maybe September, and I downloaded it then.

I guess it's strictly for the streets then. Try downloading it though. It's TOUGH!!!!
