I remember when the song came out, many were certain it would go to #1, even Top Five. In the end, it ended up staying one week at #11 and dropped down the charts afterwards. So my question is, did What The Hell deserve to smash, or did it have mediocre hit written all over it?
I thought it would smash -- but looking back, the song was soooo 2008-10. So outdated and -been there, done that-.....they played it too safe, and the public was tired of that sound.

Exactly my thoughts. I thought it would be her comeback track, and although I love the song, I don't think anyone wanted a Girlfriend 2.0
I will admit, if it was released in the summer with better promotion, it would have went Top Five easily.
“I’m becoming a little more comfortable in front of the camera. I wasn’t used to it before. I was thrown into a new lifestyle and everything I do is kind of filmed or photographed. I’m a private guy. I like to keep to myself. I’m shy, maybe. It gets kind of tricky for me but, I’m beginning to find the fun in it. I don’t take myself too seriously so if I’m front of the camera, that’s what you’re going to get, me clowning around."(Bruno Mars)
No. It had a very dated sound. This is the exact reason I don't want Kelly to release "Let Me Down". I feel it would have a similar fate. It doesn't fit in with radio today. And not in a good way.. same with What The Hell. Even Smile..same story. It brought nothing new to the table.
I bopped to both songs. Just can totally see why neither smashed.
