February 22, 201015 yr Gosh Jonjo I'm expecting between #23-#27 tomorrow! :rofl:I know #23 - #27 is more likely, but I'm still getting an image of seeing... Top 10: 9 Leona Lewis HAHA! (Maybe it's just wishful thinking LOL)
February 22, 201015 yr I fully expect OMH to be next. Leona wants it so I'm sure it will coincide with the tour. Won't the impending flop of this single and the fact it's doing practically nothing to sell the album throw it into jeopardy though?
February 22, 201015 yr Won't the impending flop of this single and the fact it's doing practically nothing to sell the album throw it into jeopardy though? Hopefully not - epecially with tour coming up they'd be mad not to get it out there. They need to realise it's what public want and they fked up.
February 22, 201015 yr Author Won't the impending flop of this single and the fact it's doing practically nothing to sell the album throw it into jeopardy though? Her album sales in the UK are great. Yes it would be nice to sell more but right now it shouldn't be a priority when choosing singles. What Leona needs right now is some buzz around her again. Outta My Head is the only song on the album that could reignite that as it's unexpected and different for her. I can't see them not releasing a third single and OMH really is the only sensible choice. Plus it was being lined up as second before they swapped to IGY so hopefully they won't be stupid and choose another song. Edited February 22, 201015 yr by Rain
February 23, 201015 yr One inside top 20 in mids today. Surprised to see overnight climbs on iTunes for single version. Now got - #31 and #44. Shame not just one higher but every sale helps right now I suppose lol!
February 23, 201015 yr Now 32 and 40 :D Does anyone know how high up this puts her, when the pop bars are combined? :w00t:
February 23, 201015 yr Author Does anyone know how high up this puts her, when the pop bars are combined? :w00t: About #16. :)
February 23, 201015 yr Around 16 but other songs have 2nd versions so actually around #20 taking this into consideration.
February 23, 201015 yr Its a shame this isnt charting higher as i think its a far far better track than happy, i hope it can manage top 15 come sunday but top 10 would be nicer.
February 24, 201015 yr Radio 1 email regarding playlist: BBC Radio 1 has been a very strong supporter of Leona Lewis since she was launched to stardom on X-Factor. However, we have to continually assess the relevance of every song and artist before we decide how far to support them on the Radio 1 playlist. Leona’s first single from her latest album, ‘Happy’, received strong A list rotation, but our music research indicated that a significant proportion of our audience strongly disliked the track. The Radio 1 playlist team make decisions based on a combination of objective information and subjective opinion and it was decided that ‘I Got You’ was not strong enough to warrant anything more than C list rotation. We will monitor the progress of the track carefully, both in terms of its chart position and with our audience research panel to make sure we are rotating the song at the appropriate level. So basically Happy - which sold more than most of the tripe they play - put them off supporting IGY. I wonder who this audience research panel consits off. :rolleyes:

I wonder who this audience research panel consits off. :rolleyes:But 'I Got You' is completely different to 'Happy' and is ALOT more radio friendly. :mellow: I don't get their logic. Maybe it really is too "Radio 2" for them, but they just didn't want to say...
February 24, 201015 yr Author But 'I Got You' is completely different to 'Happy' and is ALOT more radio friendly. :mellow: I don't get their logic. Maybe it really is too "Radio 2" for them, but they just didn't want to say... Yup they're being very narrow-minded. IGY is nothing like Happy really but they are lumping them both together. OMH is the only song that is blatantly different in sound so they have to go with it next.
February 24, 201015 yr Author or 'Naked' :kink: True. Although knowing R1, the slow start of Naked before the first chorus will make them class it as the same as Happy and IGY. :rolleyes: Edited February 24, 201015 yr by Rain
February 24, 201015 yr LMFAO! :wub: Probably LOLOLOL! I really am baffled to that... shouldn't they be appealing to ALL members of the public and not just the "Commitee" or whatever it is they wanna call it?!
February 24, 201015 yr Radio 1's playlist deciding people really are a pain sometimes :( Doesnt really leave me feeling too confident about support for the third single from Echo.
