Isn't 7 adds a little low? Especially for someone with so much success at UAC. It's well behind Dwele in adds as well.

This is her first single to go for adds at Urban and Urban AC simultaneously. As far as Urban goes, it's doing just as well as her "Truth Is" and "Free Yourself" so far. I'm sure if it proves itself at Urban, it will do just fine at Urban AC. There's no reason why it wouldn't.

This is a great song, but I believe "u got me waitin" would have been the best follow up to "free yourself."

I hope this does well. I love the richness in her voice. She certainly deserve to be AI champ. Although I think it is subpar compared to TI and FY but those were two insanely good singles. I can't say enough how much Fantasia has surprised me with her pure talent and great songs

Yea, I am surprised they released this, but it's doing well in Chicago. See, Fantasia is going to have a Patti LaBelle kind of career where she will always do well in Urban formats. Her biggest problems as she gets further away from the American Idol buzz is crossing over. As long as she does not vex about not crossing over as much, she will be successful in the Urban crowd/format.

This isn't starting off great at Urban. It's #1 Taking Off at Urban AC though, and hopefully if it's huge at Urban AC, Urban will support it like they did with "Truth Is" and "Free Yourself".

I think this is over though... they shouldn't've gone with a decent midtempo, they needed to either stick with the dramatic ballads or mix it up with an uptempo. This just sounds like filler compared to her other singles---

I don't think "Truth Is" and "Free Yourself" are more dramatic ballads than this. They all sound like midtempos to me. She was probably basically done no matter what she released. Her album stopped selling.

yeah no, she had "I Believe" and then 3 hit singles (she didn't have an R&B #1 blkgapmodel, she had a #2, a #3, and #16). It was a great run, and puts Ruben to SHAME. So it's okay 4th/5th single doesn't do anything.

She could pull a Kelly and record really good songs the second time around and be even more successful.

I think I said this before somewhere, but I'm hoping Fantasia will show her own personality and style on her next album as opposed to singing songs that sound like they were meant for Monica ("Truth Is"), Destiny's Child ("It's All Good"), Usher ("Got Me Waiting"), Ciara ("Don't Act Right"), Alicia Keys ("Free Yourself"), Beyonce ("Baby Mama"), Mary J. Blige ("Ain't Gon' Beg You"), R. Kelly ("Selfish"), Angie Stone ("Good Lovin"), Amerie ("This Is Me"), or Whitney Houston ("You Were Always On My Mind"). Okay, that covers the entire album! We want some fresh music from Fantasia!

Wow I didn't expect this to flop. It's probably her best single to date.
