Poll: Will WIWYM become the SLY of 2013?
Jan 29th 2013, 23:30



Bruno's follow-up single is already off to a great start at radio and retail (#13 on US iTunes with only less than 25 million audience impressions, according to Mediabase data, and no music video). It is setting up to be a potential smash.

Will "When I Was Your Man" become the "Someone Like You" (in terms of success/chart runs and critical acclaim) of 2013?
