I am shocked to see that another one of her singles is flopping. " This is how we do" has been around for three weeks now in the uk charts and it still hasn't made the top 40. It is shooting up each week granted but it needs to do a hell of lot better then it is doing. If this single needs to be at least top 20 for it not to be classed as a flop. It is a great single choice and by rights it should be top ten. Once again there seems to be no promotion for the single other then the vid. She is in real danger off having 3 flops from the " Prism" album. I know she is now on her 5th single from the album but her singles seem to be flopping where her singles from " Teenage Dream" all performed well,

Yeah I know the album has been around for almost a year and 5th singles don't normally do well but it is in real danger of not even making the Top 40 which is a shock. The song is the perfect choice as a single and it is one which I highlighted as a single when the album was released . I know it is all about the album sales these days and of course Prism has done brilliant but the singles from it have not apart from Roar and Dark Horse. She needs to release LL or/and Walking on Air as these two are different sounds and will be big hits and breath even more life in to the album.

Back when it was announced I was like, eh what song on the album is this?... and then it dawned on me it was one of the ones I'd deleted from my ipod. :kitty:
The song is crap and it's getting the chart success it deserves.
People will care when the fifth single from her last album was a hit. The fact she had hit after hit from her last album will forever be something fans and critics will expect from her again and again.
No they don't care , the album has been out nearly a year and was a massive seller and this is the 5th single . Not many artists continue to release single after single when the album did so well .
People do care because people are quick to compare what one era's success is to another. It's not how i feel, it's how some others feel and are quick to point out and criticise her for not being able to do it. Like someone said above, what she achieved with Teenage dream was rare with one hit after another and that is something i think clouded her prior to the release and throughout this era.
and let's be honest. Prism wasn't a massive seller . It has sold about 3 million copies which is very good and has outsold a lot of other female artists albums (gaga, miley, britney) but a massive seller it wasn't.
I do think that she would have been very lucky to repeat the success of "Teenage Dream". It was also helped along by the re-release.
I do like Prism but "This Is How We Do" wasn't an instant favourite of mine on the album. It took a while to grow on me. The fans have been calling for ""Walking On Air" to be released. Maybe she's holding that back as the final single.
this is how we do and walking on air were two of the tracks that jumped out at me when I heard the album. she could be holding back walking on air so the last single to be released from the album isn't the worst, but one of the best, but as that track just screams out for piles of remixes it should have been one of the first singles
I'm no fan of remixes as I don't see the point in them but it does sound like a song that would have a lot of remixes.
