I'm still waiting for a Katy Perry/Ke$ha collaboration on something.

What's the reasoning behind the remix? Is it being released or something?

Ke$ha hates Katy, they won't collborate dun be so silleh greg, it's Katy and Rihanna that will collab on the teenage dream rerelease

And because she didn't get #1 with the song first time around

I thought they were friends?! Why does she hate her?

They were, but then they had a falling out over something, idk, but she wrote the song Backstabber about her apparently, which is why she talks about a Katy in it.

I think they just put on a front for the press

Hmm, interesting. Well Ke$ha was in the I Kissed A Girl video.

And there is that unreleased song "True Love" by the two of them.

And there's http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_fl90geOIQu...+kesha_cut.jpg

Plus, TiK ToK & Cali Girls are basically the same song. ;)

Okay, on-topic...I hope this remix flops.

Ke$ha's probably pissed at having her songs so blatantly ripped off.

Stick a fork in Britney. It's long overdue.

Ruined a good song!

Just because Britney's featured doesn't mean it will get to #1. Britney did it because she loves the song, this is her first feature on a song.

No, it's not. She featured on her ex-husband's song.

That was done for fun though when they were together. This is her first time featuring on a major artist's single.

Oh and non suprisingly this is doing very well over in America. It's currently at #2 on the iTunes chart, could soon well be #1 by the looks of things.

I can't think of an adjective to fit between so and bad to describe how awful this is.

Yes it does, fans of Rihanna & Brit will buy the song which pretty much makes it a guaranteed number one..

Erm it's not even #1 on iTunes? Yes it's done well but it doesn't guarantee a number one single. The reception to it has been lukewarm, it's being played lots on radio yes but S&M has had strong airplay for weeks now, way before the remix was released. There's some radio stations that are refusing to play the remix though because they dislike the Britney edit. There's a strong chance it will get to #1, I can see that but Rihanna has a habit of gradually climbing to #1 in America, so S&M would have probably gotten there regardless of the remix.

A song doesn't have to be #1 on iTunes to get #1 on the charts in the US :S if fans request it enough then it counts towards the total Radio Spins for the week, and regardless of the reception, shit songs still get #1, just look at black an yellow (:bored:) and that'll probably happen with this as the sales will be cumulative of both the remix and the normal version and It wouldn't have got #1 if the remix hadn't been released, next week Judas is released and that, (unless Beyonce's Girl is rush released due to a leak) would have probably topped the charts and S&M would have fallen.

I'm aware of that thanks, but it would help the song out if it were to be #1 on there. It's only been available since yesterday, airplay is still fairly low for it. You can't really say that, it was climbing the Hot 100 each week, a lot of people thought it had peaked yet last week it soared to #2. The airplay for S&M was huge before the remix was released, it's #1 on Pop songs and in the top 10 airplay charts. It could well have been #1 this week, even if there was no remix. The album version is still in the top 5 of iTunes.

who cares what number it gets too?

its still a pointless fail. Adds nothing. Well, nothing good anyways.

Oh I hate Britney so much.

And I've lost a lot of respect for Rihanna lately.

Not bad but pointless because there was nothing extra to it. same versus and sound. A remix should have some kind of different sound innit?

Doesn't matter whether something was "done for fun" or not. She already featured. It counts.

Next.

Meh, I still have a feeling E.T. will get another week at #1. I'm not sure why, but I've often found Billboard is very unpredictable at times.

Like when Break Your Heart by Taio Cruz was #1 on iTunes and then debuted at #73 or something. (Though, it did jump to #1 a week later)

How did she feature? She sung all of the songs on the album Chaotic

I was right about this weeks #1. :o :D
