Well, not necessarily true. Hopefully the video will just about be out by then so it could be that as soon as the video hits the likes of MTV the song will be available for download, which could be a decent strategy as far as the mainstream fan goes.

Eminem isn't lady gaga (Or is he?)

Em isn't Interscope's top priority anymore. The fact that he can be so successful without such promotion is a bonus to them.

Bigger profit baby!

well since Recovery has a chance to sell close to a milli...they would be stupid to wait and watch it do 400k by itself

it's going the exact same way as CAB, and we all know how it turned out. Things don't look too bright if you asked me.

Well, they're timing seems right except for the music video and UK/Ireland single release date. I don't know what it is, maybe they get the "go-ahead" from Interscope too late or something.

CAB has more "mainstream" sound to it though, if you know what I mean.
and only fans care about the song quality, other people eat up everything that feed to them, that's why we got all kinds of crap music now. To general public it's all about appearance & promo, not quality (sad but true)

song only has longevity if it's on radio everyday. I mean if it is I'm sure it will have longevity but if does not get played on radio people will not know about it.

it's all counted actually

I don't even know why i'm being so negative about it already. Maybe I like to prepare myself first so in case it flopped it wouldn't be such a shock. Really pathetic :facepalm
