June 9, 201510 yr Dropping quickly? Its back up to #21 today and hasn't fallen lower than #23 in the last 24 hours...? Yeah I just saw that. I'm really surprised it has been that stable since last night. She had 4 dark red updates in a row and that would usually be the start of the big drop for a new release. Well if she can hang on for another day or two she might just make the top 40 after all. If she sells consistently she should shift 10-15k so it'll be a close call. It'll come down to how much streaming is going to push her down.

The reason it's stabalised is because Radio 2 finally gave it a play during listening hours. It goes to show that if they'd waited for the original release date where she would probably be A list on radio 2, and other stations would have picked it up, it would have been making itself into quite the hit.
June 9, 201510 yr Yes the lack of support from the popular stations is extremely frustrating. There's really no reason for them to ignore her. She's shown that she is so much more than a former X Factor singer. It's astonishing that radio would so arrogantly ignore a homegrown talent that has sold 20 million records. Just noticed that she's back to number 22. Edited June 9, 201510 yr by PaulM1983

June 9, 201510 yr I have a good news, but it 's kinda weird Leona gained +1000 position on US itunes ....and that's happened during THE NIGHT, WHEN NOBODY BUY MUSIC, there is not promo, or radio etc..and thats' really weird isn't it???? She was 1254 at midnight or something and since then, so during the night she increase really fast and now is 240 and still increase, but I cannot figure it out any promo aside from billboard article yesterday evening (from what I know, maybe someone from US can give us some news where this huge increase come from)
June 9, 201510 yr NBA promo is only thing I know she's got going for her in the US. Or maybe a major radio station played it?

I wonder when she'll fly over to US to promote this... Needs a bit more time in UK by looks of things.. Edited June 9, 201510 yr by Karma
June 9, 201510 yr That massive rise on US iTunes is really strange, but very encouraging. She needs to get promo kickstarted over there ASAP to capitalise on that. If we have to watch them waste every good opportunity they could get, it'll be so disheartening. I hope they do a better job of promoting over there than they have done in the UK. One performance on a show nobody watches just doesn't cut it.

One performance on a show nobody watches just doesn't cut it. They've clearly got a plan. The fact FUMF is already #176 on US iTunes is down to them so I'm sure it is all part of their plan.
June 9, 201510 yr NBA promo is only thing I know she's got going for her in the US. Or maybe a major radio station played it? Yeah that is what I imagine has given it the boost. The NBA promo definitely pushes some of the stronger parts of the song so fingers crossed it helps her out. Radio support is what Leona really needs right now.

Radio support is what Leona really needs right now. It's under Hot New Tracks on the main page of the US iTunes store, so I assume it's that. Up to #165 on US iTunes!
