My first thought as well!

 

Also, not a flop single, but at least back in 2010 it was less successful than the lead - I prefer Back To December over Mine. Both great songs though.

Begin again was never planned as a proper second single, it was just release between WANEGBT and IKYWT to keep part of her audience happy but you can see how it was promoted like that. The same as white horse

TRUSTFALL fits this pretty well

@Taemira — curious: did you disagree with the song choice or the fact that I thought it was a flop? After having 10 consecutive top ten hits and for this to stall outside the top ten, I believe it was a flop for her standards at the time.

my god YES  I loved Die Young so much but for some reason back then Cmon just didn’t hit when it was released. flash forward like 5 years from then, I realized suddenly one day that up to that point in time, Cmon was her best single (until Praying came along of course). it’s pure pop perfection and deserved way better

you da one

literally all of the other TTT singles are better than WFL  I will never understand the hype for that grating, repetitive ass song. WHYB deserves all the acclaim and success WFL got

I actually love Never Again but Sober is potentially her best song

I will never forgive them for choosing the soccer mom flop that is Chasing the Sun instead of this soccer mom masterpiece
