Overall I like it but I just hate not so much Kanye's rap which is just a lazy uninspired tack on, but that build up to it and then the fact that the song is just interrupted and never goes back.

Warners would be insane not to release "Miles Away" as a single.It's a gorgeous,perfect little pop number.The fans love it,and I predict it will appeal to an adult contemporary crowd as well (it'll be a popular VH-1 hit,for sure).It should be the third single.Gotta slow things down a bit,after two fast,uptempo singles.

I love it I even like the Kanye West rap.It's not too distracting.

I"m watching the concert now...I wish she'd hang up the guitar. It seems like it's distracting her. She doesn't need to prove anything. She looks f'ing fabulous holy crap.

So what is your opinion on what happened with "Nothing Fails". Everyone loved that song but it got lost in the shuffle of lesser AL songs. Did she even perfrom "Nothing Fails" during that tour? I remember she pulled that one and "Like A Prayer" out for this special with a choir. It was amazing!

Double Post...Opps

Yeah, it's peaked. Now falling at iTunes and it doesn't have cross-format support to make up the points difference at radio.

She should have been smart and suppressed downloads until radio play was at its peak. She would have had a guaranteed #1.

Looks like she's going to have a double whammy here in the UK- number one in both the single and album charts- cool.

Was it supposed to come out looking like this because...uh, yeah

Warner couldn't have known in advance that the single would get 50 million+ AI.

Besides, selling 1 million downloads in 5 weeks means more money for Madonna & Warner than a #1.

I say they handled this single well.

If Hung Up could get 32+ million A.I., it's not exactly a stretch and I'm sure they thought this through.

Yet another Madonna single charting lower than its potential because of improper timing (Mariah always knows how to play it right to get that #1, so Madonna should take notes).

Selling 1 million downloads doesn't generate some sort of amazing revenue - in total it's much less than $1 million. She would have sold the same number of downloads regardless of when the single was sent to digital, anyway, since there is clearly digital demand for the track. I'm guessing if they had repressed it properly, it would have easily shifted 250-300k in its first week, and that would have likely been enough for #1. As it is, she will need to do that much this week just to get #2, and from its iTunes positions it's clear that won't be happening. Therefore, it's peaked, unless things change drastically before the tracking week ends.
