Hard Candy is getting way more promotion than any of the Confessions singles did in the US, except for maybe Hung Up and that peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100. It's already #3 and it's her highest charting single since Music, being in the top 5 in more than 15 countries. As for radio, I agree that a lot of stations aren't embracing the single but the ones that matter are. Z100 in NY and KIIS in Los Angeles are some of the most influential radio stations in the country and 4 Minutes has been doing phenomenal on there. A lot more stations are starting to follow in their footsteps. With the video, upcoming promo tour, and the maxi single with all the remixes still due for release, we have a lot to look forward to cause she ain't going anywhere.
