"Two or three radio stations played the song. Most station directors told us that it's not a hit".

Wow. There aren't many songs that jump out the radio and slap you round the face screaming "hit" on the first listen but this was one of them to me.

For me the success is down to the song (although I'm pretty sick of it now but that's down to overplay), I've not even seen the video.

Yes these are the amazing and disturbing realities - 'twas always so, however; I was astonished by the nearly 100% lack of approval for the Chumbawamba song when we pushed it out. More of that in my new book.

Pharrell is overrated and the song Happy is total shit.

The wonder is not that he broke a hit in "todays market" but that such an established artist with a HUGE amount of publicity somehow failed in the first place.
I would shut up if I was him!
