2601119, Love Lockdown for sure

I mean it wasn't his style at the time, not really a catchy chorus, very minimal especially compared to the other songs on radio. Not that I think it'd flop but it definitely surprised me when it went top 5. "Runaway" as well surprised me that it went top 20 but since it's in a similar vein of "Love Lockdown" it's not THAT much of a left turn. Just didn't think that in today's euro-pop and over-produced radio market that it would be pushed, which is why I was so surprised that "Paranoid" flopped since I thought that had all the makings of a hit.
