Why isn't 1 U Wanna C a single yet?

I understand he's not really promoting this thing, but I'm still perplexed they didn't at least give this track a little radio push. neutral

More importantly, why isn't he playing it at the O2?

come on, you know how he works. Again file alongside Future Baby... and many others that should have been but never were a single!.
I also suspect that he is done with this CD now as it served its purpose as a marketing tool to get max publicity to sell Tour tix.

the only singles I hear on the album are "Guitar" obviously, and "Chelsea Rodgers". "1 U wanna C" wouldn't do that well.

People in my car instantly hum or tap to this tune (even after), it should be a single to see how it does.

Nice! With a good video, this would easily be a top 20 song. It would do especially well with Middle America.

This song is too good. It should be a single but even if it doesn't become one maybe some radio station will pick it up like Adore...
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.

Perhaps what is happening is that the song is only being floated out there, but not yet released officially. If they think that radio is feeling the song, then it may have a full blown release. I say that because this is what occurred with Future Baby Mama. First, it was loosely played by some radio stations for about two weeks. The response was good. Then, it officially went for adds, and the airplay immediately took off. Now, FBM is one of the hottest songs on Urban AC radio. The next week or two should be telling.
