Didn't we get the total sales of LA State of Mind a few years ago and it was like less than 3000 copies?

It was just over 1000 copies
 Poor Melanie I actually really like that album, what’s worse do you think being the only Spice Girl not to have a #1 single or the only Spice Girl not to have a top 10 album? Mel was so stupid not to hold off and wait a bit longer to release Hot and also not to start with Feels So Good. Bet Virgin we’re glad to get rid of her as she wouldn’t listen to a word they said. |

Can’t believe the 1000 copies for LSOM , I would rank it highly on my list .

Ok I've decided this is a nice little 7 track album. The last 3 tracks range from boring to awful to cringe. The first 7 tracks are actually a decent run of songs.

In case you were wondering the final 3 tracks in a perfect world would be
8. A thousand Miles (Vanessa Carlton cover) 9. 2 become 1 ft one of the Appleton sisters 10. I get by with a little help from my friends ft Robbie Williams A thousand miles is so much more interesting than Come away with me, it could have an interesting arrangement too like Don't call me baby. 2 Become 1 with one of the All saints sisters screams 90s dream and Robbie really didn't suit it. Help from my friends a Beatles song that Robbie would sound good on, a positive upbeat song to finish the album too. Stick Here comes the sun ft Tate and Beau on the deluxe with a solo 2 become 1 version and you have more reason to buy it too. |

I would take off Come away with me too but I do like Emotion though, the more I listen to that the more it grows on me. Here comes the sun is also a bit weak but I get why she included it, I do think your idea is much better though. I'd scrap 2 become 1 altogether tbh, have it as a bonus track at most. I also hate Don't call me baby I think Emma sounds dreadful on it her voice doesn't sound as good in the low tone in my opinion and this is way too low all throughout, her sweetness is exposed when her voice is high, however this is clearly very popular with everyone else so guess that's just me.

I really like Emotion too, I got confused the 3 tracks I'd lose or change are Come away, 2 become 1 and Here comes the sun, I've got it in my head they are the last 3 tracks as I skip and avoid them at all costs.

Don't Call Me Baby is the one for me, when it comes to the covers! I love her deep vocals actually, they're very sultry. It's one of the more interesting moments on the album imo, and probably the best production work too - far superior to every other cover, and maybe even better than the two original song productions.
I find Come Away With Me underrated - it's a very romantic song, very chill. Also, Josh's vocals compliment Emma's more so than her other duet partners imo. |

Smooth as velvet. Personally, I don't really listen to 'Come Away With Me'. I've always found that song a bit boring. Totally agree on the vocals though. Josh was a good choice.

I do agree it's a gorgeous harmony, and I don't skip it tbf but I wouldn't choose to play it either... |

I remember LA State Of Mind was almost impossible to find - it’s a miracle people actually managed to find 400+ copies to buy in week 1, I had to order mine from an indie record shop and it took 2 weeks to arrive

Emma was on Lorraine this morning and apparently the single with Jade will be released on the 7th June? Strange that it is so late but I guess with her schedule, it is to be expected...
Video looks well cute though and Jade is so yummy  Link to video |

I don't think 7th June is that late considering it's just a bit over a month from now.
I hope Radio 2 will playlist it at least. Maybe the album can cross 10 000 copies at least

Clips of the video looks great, incredibly 60s with the hair, fashion & decor! Looks like it’s better than the Baby Please Don’t Stop video.
I wonder if June 7th refers to the video release? Seems odd to hold it back if it’s ready to go. Releasing it during the tour seems like a strange choice. Her appearance on Lorraine resulted in My Happy Place climbing to #30 on iTunes. This morning it wasn’t Top 700 (that’s all that would load of the Top 1500 iTunes albums for me). I didn’t check where it was on Amazon, but the standard is currently #43 and the deluxe is #126. I’m wondering if this’ll help her climb back into the Top 200? It’s currently not Top 200 in the mids, so as things stand it’s looking to go 11-121-out but it was midweek #195 on Monday, so maybe it’s not too far away from Top 200 and this Lorraine boost could help? We’ll see!

Fingers crossed she stays in top 200 as we get sales data then don't we! (No matter how pathetic lol)
