October 31, 201014 yr Author Back up to #22 in todays Top 40. Combined now it's #11 on iTunes But I think that it's doing poorly, and understanably, over 80k have already baught the album version. Edited October 31, 201014 yr by olm-remix
October 31, 201014 yr They have promo all week, plus the physical is out tomorrow. I think to say it's doing poorly when it's #10 combined after less than 24 hours is a slight over-exaggeration. Panic should set in when all of next weeks promo is done and it's fallen to like #15..

I forgot to mention that the promo starts on Thursday again in that post. I was merely comparing it with the Missing You release where it was already like Top 3 after 24hrs compared to the new version of Higher which is Top 30, but like I said that's because over 80k have already baught it.

October 31, 201014 yr Hhmmm, the single isn't doing as well on iTunes as I would have thought. Time will tell, I guess. Loved the performance on the lottery, good to see they changed things up a bit. :)
October 31, 201014 yr At this stahe regardless of its peak it has sold well, it will be in or around 90,000 when this weeks sales are added, next week should hopefully add at least 20,000 more so i think overall 200,000 will be its lowest.
October 31, 201014 yr Author It's getting more radio play, so hopefully it'll give it a boost - up to 10 from 19 this week!
November 1, 201014 yr Currently, combined its #12 :(. Hopefully physical sales are enough to push it into the top 10. And I pray the promo helps; I do not think Xtra Factor will help; its utterly useless for promotion.
November 1, 201014 yr I think they're going to join the list of "good songs that were sooo painfully close to the top ten, yet missed out and peaked between #11 and #15 because of annoying circumstances* for 2010. :( What If, Turn It Up, Broken Arrow, I Got You, Memories, Rock That Body, Fire with Fire, Choices, Can't Be Tamed, Hollywood (Marina), Let You Go, Hollywood (Buble), Playing With Fire, Your Love Is My Drug, Blah Blah Blah, Take It Off, Te Amo, Do You Remember, Why Don't You, Magic, Drummer Boy, Doo Wah Doo, My Wicked Heart, It's My Life/Confessions, Opposite of Adults, I'd Rather Be With You, Gives You Hell, Amazing, Not Myself Tonight, Nutron Star Collision and Rescue Me (probably more) are all examples of this curse.
November 1, 201014 yr Higher is better than them all, maybe not PARTY IN THE USA. That was released in 2009... :P
November 1, 201014 yr Oh Yeah (A) The Uk have had some bad acts over them in 2010 anyway HIGHER 19 and 24, I hope Loose women/Michael Ball saves them as Roll Deep, Nadine are catching up.. But they rarley have an effect.. i can see this peaking at 12 :( CRIMINAL.COM
November 1, 201014 yr Author Trouble is, the promo for Higher is in the 2nd half of the week when idealy it should be the 1st half. Basically because the sales for the 2nd half of this week will drip into next week, which could be sales added right now to boost chart position. It wont affect sales at all, just chart position. If it does get Top 10 this week, it'll be by the skin of its teeth. It has catching up to do...
November 1, 201014 yr Combined it's 11th! But far behind WILL.I.AM i can only see it dropping as it is now.. So the promo which i believe will be ineffective hopefully brings in a couple of downloads.. but i think Higher will have over 1-3k physicals?

Brilliantly put; as usual :D Oh btw how many copies do you think the Higher EP will bring in at #35 on the iTunes Album Chart? Edited November 1, 201014 yr by IfUSeeBritney
November 1, 201014 yr Hmm :( It's sad that this will most likely just miss out on the top 10 but releasing at this time of year without an X Factor Slot is always a risk, coupled with the fact the track had been available on the album since August. Lots of the tracks above them on itunes are new releases that haven't been available on albums before the release (some tracks like 'Firework' or 'Stay' are exceptions) The Flo Rida version has not worked as it does just seem like a cheap, unoriginal sales raising idea. But it's not a complete flop, Top 15 will be okay as long as the sales are okay. What does everyone think this will sell in the end?
November 2, 201014 yr #10 in the Midweeks, but only a tiny tiny amount infront of #11 (less than 500 copies) so looks like Higher will be the saturdays second single to miss the top 10 at this rate :(
November 2, 201014 yr Worst Case Scenrio top 12? I hope Stay - Shakespear falls down as it is now as is Barba Streishand with Ne-Yo and WILL.I.AM gaining.. I pray loose women gets saturdays into the top 15 with one version! Team Sats !
