That was my first thought as well. Mike, ?So? Over an Aly and AJ v. P!nk argument and the hole you dug in the Lounge? Are you still in 6/7th grade?
I'll be great, but from what I'm seeing on your side: not so much.

Oh man...the local middle school called, they want their drama back.
Facts:
1) Pink flopped HARD
2) Milian flopped HARDER
3) APA flopped
4) Aly & AJ will never be successful and won't be around after another album
THE END

It's really sad how Pink flopped, all songs that I've heard from I'm Not Dead are really good, but obviously people prefer to buy that stupid High School Musical CD
Rush is as bad as Our Leaps Are Sealed, I agree, they won't be around for a next album.

Don't even get me started on High School Musical...it might be the biggest selling album of 2006 so far (WHATTTTTTT THEEEEEE F.UCKKKKKKKK!!!!?????!!!!!) but that **** is horrible.
Wow, I just need to let that sink in, because it is a lot to take in...High School Musical...through 6 months of 2006...is the biggest selling album of the year...deeeeeeeeeep breath...exhale.

Maybe I'm the only one who thinks so, but what about Kanye West?
3rd single: Heard Em Say (FLOP)
4th single: Touch the Sky (FLOP, but a minor hit maybe)
5th single: Drive Slow (FLOP)
And I like all those songs too...well minus Heard Em Say. 
after all of the darkness and sadness, still comes happiness. if i surround myself with positive things, I'LL GAIN PROSPERITY.

"Diamonds" flopped too, the only hit was "Gold Digger," but the album as a whole did well.

Uhhhhhh..... at least we get a little entertainment from the sissies around here. It's pretty easy to call a famous singer a "gay ass" from the safety of a parents' house. But if Kanye West were present, we all know who'd be crapping his/her pants. Cowards are funny.
Back to the topic. I've linked screen shots to a pair of Billboard Hot 100 charts from last November. Notice as West's single ascends from 56 to 47, its title changes. Is this a rare Billboard typographical error or a label title switch? It's the same error in the print version of the magazine.
As for flopping, Heard 'em Say went Top 40 on 16 Billbaord charts. It made the Top 20 on 6 of those surveys including a #2 peak position on 1 chart. I'm assuming the others listed were similar. And if they're in order of release, labels generally expect each succeeding single after the first 2-3 to underperform the last. Flops, hardly, in my book : nevermind flop of the year. Just putting some perspective on some crazy looking posts around here.

Well, most people are jealous of Hilary Duff, because she is so successful while having so little talent.

Remember: Just say NO to Aly and AJ (those bitches), you'll be glad you did.

The weeks before November 12 listed it as Heard 'em Say too. I have to assume printing error.

His album is great, but Teddy Geiger didn't really fill expectations in terms of sales with his album. "For You I Will" blew up and was a big hit, but I believe his album didn't even hit the top 5. The Veronicas also had a great album, but they flopped because the record company failed to promote them.

Maybe, but I'd bet a year's salary you would be too afraid to say that to his face. It's easy to be tough when you're cowering in secret.

That's ashame APA & Pink didn't do well. Good albums, too.
Probably Christina Milian IMO, she just sold herself out, to the point nobody's buying her music.

I've liked this guy's music ever since that one day in Starbucks. He is currently being set to release a 2nd single. "For You I will" - as a single - was certified Platinum by the RIAA. As for the alblum, yep, it should be classified as a flop, but he'll eventually obtain a Gold status for the CD.
