Yes, I agree! It's just that you said you couldn't imagine it selling the 55k left to go Silver, but it only needs about 10-17k to do so. Which isn't that far off or hard, in my opinion. Pretty sure it must be around 187-190k now. ( 'Forever Is Over' is basically THE early single they keep on singing during gigs and festivals ) However, it's true that given the current circumstances, I can't see them managing to sell the few k left... :/

183,000 as of 2013 according to Jay but I can't imagine it's gotten many since then. Most of that 40,000 difference probably came throughout the Wordshaker/Headlines! eras.


It was on 2k more last August if I remember correctly.

FIO is not good. They are lucky they released it when they did - as it was off the back of a big selling album and a string of hits.

The Paul O'Grady performance sticks in peoples minds.



It must be slightly iconic as it has over 100,000 views on youtube, the Disco Love performance at the same show obviously a few years later only has 5000 views.

^ It's funny this is considered their worst performance amongst the fanbase because, in my opinion, they've had so much worse than this, especially lately.

I mean what exactly is there on that performance that we didn't get in the recent performances? (The answer is probably live vocals? laugh.gif)

Seriously, all the girls sound good on their respective verse (except for Mollie, granted). Can you even say that for most of their performances? kink.gif
I mean, yeah, the chorus is a bit of a mess because of the backing track, but if you think that sounds bad, you should give a listen to the chorus of 'Not Giving Up' live... kink.gif Frankie sounds PHENOMENAL from 0:42-46. Sad she couldn't keep the same good vocals throughout the rest of the choruses.

That performance is fine! I agree with Hurricane. They actually sound pretty decent on it. Rochelle and Vanessa's height difference is annoying me though.

I wonder if people ever shit their pants when you spill the truth like that. They need to wash their butts real quick laugh.gif

So FIO has sold 186,000 at best if what Joe stated is true. It would take a miracle for it to go Silver. Holding onto hope for Notorious though!

'Forever Is Over' has horrific sales for a song that done well airplay wise and had good enough promotion.

I was actually trying to find my favourite 'Forever Is Over' performance but it was impossible to find.
