Posted July 20, 200618 yr [flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNRejz72zwk.swf Well after the lame decision to release 'When It All Falls Apart' the girls make an even lamer decision to release 'Revolution'. Its ok and all but isnt good enough to be a single imo. The video isnt exactly fantastic either. They could have had a much funner themed video but oh well. I wanted 'I Could Get Used To This' or 'Leave Me Alone' as next single but it looks unlikely they'll be going for a 5th single :(
July 20, 200618 yr Typical 4th single, can't be bothered to stretch the budget so do a performance video. The song is pop/rock by numbers, the album has far better tracks on it I think.
July 20, 200618 yr It's really wierd - they sent a version of this track to radio, but extended it by a minute and just added the chorus on a few times to make it real repetitive. It's official too.
July 22, 200618 yr I don't like this as the 4th single although I do like the song...The one track that should have been relelased was Secret...such an excellent song...
July 22, 200618 yr 'Secret' is excellent. And who can forget that classic line... "I never looked at you that way, 'cos I always thought you were gay". :lol: 'Revolution' to me is a watered down '4 Ever'.
July 22, 200618 yr Author Secret really should have been a single :( This is just throwaway pop and I really don't like it as much as the rest of the album. The first 2 singles were great choices but the obsession with going in chronological order means we hit two duff tracks. Secret/Leave Me Alone/ I Could Have Got Used To This would all have made excellent single choices. Simply as this video is a tour video makes me think this is the last single. I think they're done with the album in Australia. The tours over at the end of August then theyre back to the US for a while, beyond there I think we should see something of a UK release. Tbh I'd be suprised if they didnt release here, it would just be bizzare. I predict an Autum launch.
July 22, 200618 yr Author Im certain they will. Theyve said they are but theyre touring like crazy In Australia through August then the US again in September. I'd rather them do it properly and promote fully here then put a video out and for them to flop.
July 22, 200618 yr I wish they'd stop trying to crack the US market for a while and concentrate on here, where they'd easily make a mark. Then they could move on to the US. They have only had success in Australia so far, so they're kind of running before they can walk.
July 22, 200618 yr Author They do need to focus on Europe and more especially the Uk for now. We're the only real market which will embrace them now I think. They should try in the US with their next album. They wont break throuhg with TSLO... matrial now imo.
July 22, 200618 yr I think it's safe to say, if '4 Ever' couldn't break them through, they don't really stand a chance with anything else unfortunately. I heard that the UK might be getting 'When It All Falls Apart' first, I sincerely hope it's not true.
July 22, 200618 yr Author They went with split releases in Europe, Holland got WIAFA for example and Germany '4ever'. They really should go for '4ever' first here. WIFA won't break them through here. '4ever' would do excellently though imo, they NEED to use the Oz video though, the int'l video is partly why I think '4ever' failed in the US.
July 22, 200618 yr '4ever' would do excellently though imo, they NEED to use the Oz video though, the int'l video is partly why I think '4ever' failed in the US. I agree on all counts. You should replace their current management. :lol:
July 22, 200618 yr Author Their management have made some DISASTEROUS descisions, choice of singles, videos, promotion. To think they were gave them a $1,000,000 contract, they really should have tried harder. The US video REALLY didnt represent the song in anyway, it was boring and protencious, WHY they felt the need to alter it in the first place is beyond me. The 3rd and 4th singles were AWFUL decisions, neither should have been singles, both are some of the weakest album tracks and as to why theyre attemting to break the US again with WIAFA is BEYOND me, anyone with an ounze of sense would realise that it won't work. They should get new management for sure -_-
July 22, 200618 yr I don't think WIAFA is such a bad single choice, I mean it did well enough in Australia as a third single. There's just no way it should be used as a single to try and break them through into a certain market.
