ODD FUTURE WOLF GANG KILL THEM ALL

i guess you're a stinky buttface too, then

Looking up its chart history on Billboard, F**k You didn't really start making an impact on the Billboard Hot 100 till after the Grammy performance. But then again things also seem kind of messed up in that there are seperate chart entries for "Forget You" and "F**k You", so I'm not entirely sure.

If you guys remember anything past what you ate for lunch, there was a big OH WOW moment when the viral "fuck you" video leaked with the kinetic text and became and enormous MEME and subject of THINK PIECES before it was available for actual sale.

When it ultimately DID become available for sale there was a lot of people--myself included iirc--who figured it would be immediately #1 or at least top 10 because it was the biggest "talked about pop moment" we remembered in years, or at least since like the week "Hey Ya" dropped. It ultimatly debuted at like #30 or something because the internet hivemind is like a drop in the bucket of reality; and it took like 8 months of steady grinding and grammy and snl appearances to actually make the song something that registered in the America that's not refreshing their browsers to see what pfork gave fleet foxes

if goblin charts deej is gonna self-combust

p sure this 'everyone reads the same websites as me' phenomenon was limited to you which is why we were confused

go read the thread for proof, you fucking asshole

somebody check that jail in arizona, cuz i think dmx got out!

i didn't just invent "the internet was talking about Fuck You that week," deej

What is Rebecca Black, I don't read the same websites as deej

i just meant, you were the only one surprised that the song needed time to get exposure

afaik

there were others on that thread iirc

i think even hey ya took a while to get to number 1 iirc

as for what maura said about itunes -- i agree & elektra would be smart to pony up for some prominent placement on the itunes front page, but if it doesn't catch on on radio -- and i don't think it really will -- itunes will only take it so far

it went top ten bro. we werent arguing about how it would debut, but where it would peak.

if MIA couldn't sniff the cart with "xxxo" after "paper planes", i'm not sure cee-lo has much hope, even in a post-"crazy" world

is this an example of j0rdan being mad otm

i feel like i should pitch "sorry, cee-lo's "fuck you" isn't going to be a hit" to the awl

btw i don't deny that this might be a chart hit of some sort, i'm just saying that anyone who thinks it's gonna be as big as "crazy" or "the biggest song in the world" or prob even in the top 10 or 20 is wrong

Shit, i saw all the new answers on this thread and thought Goblin leaked or something. Thanks guys.

any day now id imagine

it took like 8 months of steady grinding and grammy and snl appearances to actually make the song something that registered in the America that's not refreshing their browsers to see what pfork gave fleet foxes

this isn't what happened at all fyi

i mean it's kind of hilariously meta that Whiney is so far inside the blog bubble that even his "lol internet myopia" rants are completely disconnected from reality

In the US, the song debuted at No. 69 on Hot Digital Songs and No. 96 on the Billboard Hot 100.[32] The song originally peaked at No. 9 in 2010. But following Cee-Lo's performance of the song at the 53rd Grammy Awards with Gwyneth Paltrow and puppets resembling The Muppets, "Fuck You!" had a resurgence in popularity and climbed back up the Billboard Hot 100 chart, reaching No. 2 in its 26th chart week (making it one of the slowest climbs ever into the No. 2 position).

I imagine the kids watched it a few times on youtube.

it's kind of hilarious that some dude is still on his fucking high horse after 48 straight hours of mega-sonning deej that he thinks he can come after me next

the stakes are high indeed

that fucking picture just kills me completely

nothing he said to me comes remotely close to the sonning u received when you claimed jordan was 'most otm' & then i posted a quote of jordan's saying 'fuck you' would never be a hit

holy shit will you guys stfu already

yeah "slowest climb" means how long it took to get to No. 2, not that it had no significant airplay in its first few months of release. this is really basic correlation vs. causation stuff.

deej, i said "iirc" and then it turns out i didnt rc. i hang my head in shame.

no diss to j0rdan -- we're all wrong about shit from time to time -- its just completely lol that one of the times where j0rdan was most offtm is where whiney would plant his "i see through EVERYTHING" flag

btw "get a room" is the dumbest lamest fuckin garbage a person can sling but can Whiney & some dude & D-40 be given their own music board & group-banned from ilm so that threads top becoming this fucking high school lunchroom every goddamn day? y'all're smarter than this but I am a living proof of the maxim that "smarter than that" is often theory not practice

the stakes are high indeed
