May 5, 201114 yr Kev_Kev Says when i asked about the single and album says he says he dosen't have info but the there's a confirmed HMV album singing on 18th September.. but he believes there night but another single if not the album will be out in April. Notorious being delayed will also effect The Saturdays in Germany! CONFIRMED 27TH JUNE though :( (Can you please check your sentences make sence before posting please?) Kev mentioned nothing on Twitter about the album being out in April. The plan could still go Notorious - 27th June, 2nd single - early September, Album - week after the 2nd single. That would also tie in with the supposed album singing on the 18th September.
May 5, 201114 yr (Can you please check your sentences make sence before posting please?) This. I don't get why 'Notorious' getting released in June is going to affect 'Higher' in Germany? 'Higher' is getting released in Germany in May, so it won't have any affect on it at all.
May 5, 201114 yr 'Check your posts make sence' :lol: The irony - you spelt sense wrong :P Lol, well at least you understood what I meant, and didn't spend 5 minutes squirming at the screen trying to figure it out :P
May 5, 201114 yr Sorry. I wrote that via Iphone. Dissapointed that Notorious has been pushed back, however the management know what they are doing so it must have been pushed back for a reason.
May 5, 201114 yr ... however the management know what they are doing so it must have been pushed back for a reason. You'd of thought they'd know what they're doing. They always seem to mess up some how. It should be so simple, but they just lack certain creativity skills to kick-start campaigns. Look at Missing You, they just threw a countdown at us and the video afterwards. Their crew always seem to presume it will be a success and don't seem bothered about putting extra content into the build-up to make it special. The lyric reveals were nice, but then the back-stage video pics? That fell flat on it's face. It took them 2 days to get 2,500 likes when they have nearly 700,000 fans on Facebook. Where were the other 697,500? They need to drum up alot of interest out-side the fan-base. I know that obviously more people will become interested in it when people hear it (hopefully), but there is no hype outside the fan-base. They lack planning and building a good foundation in which a single can grow and thrive on. They get everything prepared to go, the video, the mastered version of the single, the press shots, the single cover, the b-side.. and then they push it back by a month. Of course no-one outside the fan-base will know it's been pushed back because it was never confirmed by their team officially, but by Kev a few weeks back who does a great job in feeding us bits of Sats info. I look forward to what they're going to tease us with next because for me personally, I'm not as excited as I was.
May 5, 201114 yr I look forward to what they're going to tease us with next because for me personally, I'm not as excited as I was I do agree with this, i doubt we will hear it on Radio until next month now. I really do hope they go back to the 30th June date as they will lose all media attention they have gained from this imo. All Sats fans are quite annoyed on Twitter about the delay. The thing is if this song is another Forever is over, If this is love.. then it will be such an anti climax leaving so many fans dissapointed. As you said everything if completed.. photo shoots, b-side, video for Notorious. I see no reason why the have moved it unless they didin't manage to get much promotion?
May 5, 201114 yr I see no reason why the have moved it unless they didin't manage to get much promotion? I think it's honestly a case of not enough people are interested so they're gonna have to put in more promotion therefore put more time into the campaign therefore push it back a month. I don't think they got Notorious trending on Twitter after the week of lyric reveals, and they struggled to find 2,500 'likes' on Facebook to unlock the next picture. So it does seem to make sence now.

So it does seem to make sence now. Of course they're not going to get much people intrested. Sats fans will always be intrested guaranteed 40k+ Sales Imo. Nobody really knows about Notorious and Sats fans are not as Crazy as Wanted & Jls fans but for example Higher has outsold Gold Forever, Heart Vacancy, The Club is Alive, Love You More & Eyes Wide Shut. They should have released the song to radio & Tv and then attempted to get it trending on twitter. Missing You had no where near as much hype as this and did good. They should have stuck with this date and promoted 1 week before the release & the week during the release. Don't know why they think Pushing it back will increase the intrest especially if the radio debut will be pushed back aswell.
May 5, 201114 yr Higher has outsold Gold Forever, Heart Vacancy, The Club is Alive, Love You More & Eyes Wide Shut Actually Love You More and Eyes Wide Shut are on around 300K each. And All Time Low has sold more than any of The Sats singles, and JLS's first three singles all sold more than them too. Plus The Wanted and JLS have much better album sales. Don't bring sales into it. I'm only correcting you before some crazy JLS/Wanted fan does. :P

Don't know why they think Pushing it back will increase the intrest especially if the radio debut will be pushed back aswell. We still have reason to believe it's still going to radio mid-May. This is what they should have done. Week beginning 2nd May: - Release a picture a day for 5 days that's relevent to the campaign. For example, if someone gets arrested in the music video, then present a picture of handcuffs. It'll drum up attention and will make people guess why they're going to be significant in the campaign. Week beginning 9th May: - Do the week-long lyric reveal thing. That was good. + a 10 (or a 30) seccond clip Week beginning 16th May: - Send it to radios and get that premier! Week beggining 23rd May: - Do a flip dedicated to behind-the-scenes of the video but without including footage of the video or it being flimed. Just small interviews like what they did on set etc. Then after that tweet one still from the video a day. Week beggining 30th May: - Release the video and confirm all the release info, remixes, b-side etc Week beggining 06th June: - Release the video to a remix of the track (they usually do this) Week beggining 13th June: - Start the promotion. Week beggining 20th June: - Promotion Week beggining 27th June: - Release week and promotion!
May 6, 201114 yr The campaign has been a total fail in my eyes, so far. Random lyrics - boring, they can't be made sense of yet. Backstage photos - pointless, gives no sense of what the video could be like at all. And late June, really? They'll never learn, will they, sigh. (And by that, I mean their management).
May 6, 201114 yr It has been a fail... I don't see what they will achieve by moving the release date a month, how will it make it more popular?
May 6, 201114 yr I don't know why and I hope I'm not the only one but I feel dissapointed in this being pushed. I feel let down and just lost patience. It was perfect for them to release it with NO challangers coming up in the next 4 weeks. Flo Rida is the only challanger and I can't see him be selling 60k in 4 weeks time. Of course i'm looking forword to hearing it but If it's an anti climax i'm going to be so dissapointed.. I really don't want to lose faith in them. They have started promoting kinda already and i find it crazy that they have moved it. I know we don't like it when we link them to Xfactor etc but Britains got talent is the week they're releasing it.
May 6, 201114 yr I too am dissapointed, and I think the single could still have done well if it was released May 29th. No major competition now at all considering Flo Rida is already on iTunes at #1 with David Guetta now. The campaign has got off to a lousy and lazy start. They need to pick up the pace and step on it.
May 6, 201114 yr I really liked what you did there! I hope they release the song on radio now & if it's not picking up push the deadline back.. If it gets publicty stick to the 30th May but i doubt that's happening. Missing You had awful hype aswell and actually did good. Notorious is more hyped and they sats have a bigger fan base. Their management don't learn.
May 7, 201114 yr I really hope that isn't the final version. I'll say the same for the cover that Amazon has. :mellow: Edited May 7, 201114 yr by Aidan
May 7, 201114 yr http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61fdlaVVXdL._SS500_.jpg Hope the release date of 22nd May is correct!
