This song will definitely keep the album steady, imo anyway, and I think if Toy Soldier gets released thats going to make the album sell like crazy. Im sure shell reach 1.5-1.7 by the end of it. And 4-5 million WW. I hope anyway. Not going to happen. No Britney song will be a radio SMASH this era. She's not touring which means ClearChannel is blacklisting her combined with the fact that she's very ill leads to minumal radio play. If BTI does well (Top 20) and the 4th single, if there is one, does decenly (Top 30), she *might* be at 1.1-1.2M in the USA and 3.5M WW. Yall need to stop expecting so much with this era.

I would LOVE if it could get to 1.7 when if falls off the BB200. That means it would have outsold Back to Basics. Sadly, there's like a 0.0000009% chance of that happening. B2B had tons of promo + good radio support for the first two singles + Crust had a good public image. Blackout has none of that. I'll be EXTREMELY happy if BLACKOUT ends with like 1.2M US / 3-3.5M WW. I'd consider that a success, esp. since the first two singles overall have done well here in the States, and they've been huge on a worldwide scale.

LOL! I am not expecting ANYTHING. Just being optimistic. I expect everything to bomb this era just so I dont get my hopes up. I just try and think optimistically. I would still LOVE if it could pass Back to Basics. Thats all I ask! I dont care if Jive buys 600k copies to make it happen! LOL!

I don't care if it outsells B2B or not. The fact that Brit, being how she is right now, is still able to compete (and do better in digital sales) with her female counterparts, proves how big of a force she still is.
Once she gets well and makes a true comeback, she'll own everyone.

Exactly! She isn't doing ANY promotion, getting like NO radio play and is a mess, yet is selling so well.

Yep. I'll be very happy with 1.2M ish. And by passing 1M with the album + having atleast 2 singles cross 1M in downloads, she'll have avoided the flop label.

So, if Christina doesnt do nearly this good relatively speaking and she's a legend, what does that make Britney?

^exactly. Jive needs to get their a$$es out and something. The song has a freaking +106 bullet already. Give it an adds or atleast confirm it, even though its pretty much been confirmed even without Jive.

This song will definitely keep the album steady, imo anyway, and I think if Toy Soldier gets released thats going to make the album sell like crazy. Im sure shell reach 1.5-1.7 by the end of it. And 4-5 million WW. I hope anyway. Not going to happen. No Britney song will be a radio SMASH this era. She's not touring which means ClearChannel is blacklisting her combined with the fact that she's very ill leads to minumal radio play. If BTI does well (Top 20) and the 4th single, if there is one, does decenly (Top 30), she *might* be at 1.1-1.2M in the USA and 3.5M WW. Yall need to stop expecting so much with this era. Did you even read my post? I pretty much said that. I cant wait for this to smash! Its going to be just as popular as POM and GM and probably even more popular.. Now I wont get my hopes up cause radio seems to support her and then drop her after a bit.. so good luck!! If you thought I expected a Top 10 on POP or a #1 on the Hot 100 than you misunderstood me cause I dont think that will ever happen this era.. but this song or TS definitely has the biggest chance for that. IMO itll be just as successful as her two previous or even better. These songs will help sell the record the most. And I still believe shell hit 1.5-1.7 by the end of the era, at least. And WW I expect anything from 3-5 million. Shell be at 2 million WW not long from now so with another single or two she could definitely sell another 2 million WW. And remember albums keep selling even after singles are dying off.. so when all is said and done it very well could sell that much. Now if she doesnt do another video or another single after that than no but if she/they does, than she very well could. Out selling B2B is so possible. As long as she does two more single.

Well there won't be any more videos, thank God.
Even with two more singles, it's not going to happen. She's not going to sell that much, but you can hope I guess. lol.

Yeah, knowing Britney's luck, Break The Ice will become a nice radio hit, go Top 10 on Pop and everything, but wont sell the album or the song. LOL!

lol that would never happen. If she goes Top 10 on Pop, her sales would shoot up. But there's like a 1% chance of that happening.
