I'm so happy how receptive radio is to this song. It may be slowing down in single sales but it's still gaining Audience Impression (AI) on the airwaves. Hopefully it has longer longevity and reach higher peaks than her previous No.1's.

More good news, MTV is doing a "secret Britney project" related to HIAM. Is this a feature about the making of the HIAM video? I freaking hope so! MTV please don't let it be another Top 10 countdown of her vidz.
They already wrapped up shooting the video and an on-set source described it as "a 21-century 'Rocky Horror,' space age fantasia of dance". I'm so pumped!
Thanks for entertaining us Smashney!
