Gabriella played at a concert for the homeless on Thursday, including 'On A Mission':

 

 

Also, she performed live on Radio 2:

Debuts at number 56 on iTunes :o!

 

I knew it'd be a bit of a hit, however I wasn't expecting it to debut so high!

Well its clearly her best single by a mile and therefore should be at least top 5 come next sunday :wub:

Jesus! Had a feeling this might one of those rare pop songs that do well despite no Radio 1 suport (ala Spotlight, Outta Here, Way Love Goes) but a debut at #56 is fantastic! I dont want to over-do it but surely that means its going to be huge!

:w00t:

 

I did not expect that! Really great start. :D

Woo, so pleased for her and still loving this song surprisingly!

 

I love the breakdown bit where she goes DONT NEED CASH, DONT NEED PERMISSION part. :wub:

its no30 on itunes now

It's now at #26

I bought it. I don't even like it THAT much but I just think it's one of those songs that should do well.

Eve and H-Boogie are such random features to have on this! I can't say I'm complaining though. I love H-Boogie and Eve is good on other people's songs.

 

I think the Eve version is my favourite. I'm still not completely sold on the whole song. It's clearly catchy but I think it's a bit too feminine, even for me. Plus I really don't like the "I'm coming through so get out of the way" bit. I think it's a bit of a weak line and it sounds rushed. I also agree with a comment I saw elsewhere, it's a bit like S/A/W coming back in 2010. (though we only have to wait for our Eurovision entry for an idea of how that might actually sound)

STUNNING!!! :wub:

 

I literally can't wait for the album, and i'm soooooooooooooooooooooo excited about seeing her again, i can't wait till she tours. :wub: :w00t:

 

I'm uber delighted at how this is doing on iTunes. It's at #15 already :o :w00t: :wub: Radio1 have to playlist this now.

#12 now :w00t:

 

 

Everyone got their physical copy? The free poster is AMAZING

She's on Capital Fm at 8pm! :cheer:

In terms of UK Gabriella singles, this is pretty much my fourth favourite after Sweet About Me, Warm This Winter and Save The Lies (yet far ahead of Sanctuary). It would also be behind Don't Want To Go To Bed Now, but above Got No Place To Go. I'm very much looking forward to the album though :D

DWGTB>>>>>>On A Mission>>>Everything else imo

DWGTB should have been the second UK single really...whoever picked Sanctuary in place of it for a single release at all needs sacking

It really should have been :( Such a potential club hit :cry: Her debut campaign had so many things wrong with it

 

 

Up to #11 now ^_^

How was Bed a potential club hit?! It was just a boppy pop song, and not a great one at that. Got No Place To Go is by farrr the best thing she's done thus far.

The glaringly obvious Bass Beat would help it gain club play.

 

The clubs played Release Me for cryin out loud

I'd definatly call On A Mission my favourite Cilmi record :D

 

I dont think DWTGTBN would have magically saved the era though had it been released instead of Sanctuary or even Save The Lies for that matter. It was a brilliant track but was equal to Save The Lies's brilliance and still would have landed at #33 (or wherever STL charted)
