Rachel Stevens - Funky Dory. The follow up to the #2 hit "Sweet Dreams My La Ex", released in December 2003 the amazing Funky Dory managed a peak of only #26. It's a great song I just don't understand how it flopped

Got some recogniation but no where near what they deserved. I guess it comes down to lack of promo.
First two did not flop. :rolleyes:
I will also suggest Madonnas 'Girl Gone Wild'. Although I completely understand why that whole period flopped on it's arse, I thought GGW was one of her best singles since Sorry. Should have done much better. She had better pull her finger out for the next album!
I agree, you can add Call Your Girlfriend in there aswell. Amazing album.

My god I love that song, shame Radio didn;t support it at all
I Wanna Go - Britney Spears
Criminal - Britney Spears
Let It Go - Alexandra Burke
I love all these songs.
Such a beautiful song and I never really understood why it, and Sam in general, wasn't massive.
Let's get real. It flopped because it was nowhere near amazing.
It pains me that a masterpiece ballad like this didn't get the treatment it deserved. Should have been the second single instead of Broken Heels.
The Criminal video is great imo one of her better ones tbh
It was meant to be the 3rd single after Broken Heels, she even filmed the video then, but Syco changed it to All Night Long at the last minute. The Silence is a beautiful song with amazing stunning vocals I agree, but I think Perfect should have been released instead of it.
Sebastian Ingrosso & Alesso ft Ryan Tedder - Calling (Lose My Mind) - #19
Ed Sheeran - Small Bump - #25
Lupe Fiasco - The Show Goes On - #49
Bonnie Raitt - I Can't Make You Love Me - #50
Death Cab For Cutie - I Will Follow You Into The Dark - #66
Green Day - 21 Gun - #36
The UK Charts I refer to here by the way. I have no idea how successful these songs were in the States. All I do know is that the Green Day song I mention got to #1 in Poland, so well done fellas
The Show Goes On was a huge hit in the US last year. it's a very good song. My favourite Lupe Fiasco song is I'm Beaming.
The only one on this list I recognise .
