Well it didn't manage to go further than #16, when it had its airplay peak and digital sales, so honestly i think, he should be happy that the big digital debut pushed it some further than #16 :wink: :oops: :lol:

So Good on the Billboard Charts this week

Hot 100: #32 (19) (11 weeks)
Pop Songs: #22 (19) (9 weeks)
Radio Songs: #55 (37) (9 weeks) :o :-?
Digital Songs: #31 (13) (11 weeks)
On-Demand Songs: #18 (37) (4 weeks)

It's not a flop, but it's an underperformance coming off the last era... The audiences have not looked that bad, but a single without longevity that peaks at #33 on Radio Songs is dissapointing for him! The only reason why it has done pretty nice on the Hot 100 is, because of good digital sales! :-?

Radio stations don't want to support him this era and it's really surprising...At least, people wanted to buy his new singles
