May 22, 201114 yr I was so proud of the girls watching that SYTYCD performance. The vocals and dance routine were amazing! :dance: It's great that Notorious has already managed to crack the itunes top 10 (Still can't believe that Ego and Higher sold that much without ever making the itunes top 10) I expect this will debut low top 10/high teens and then fall and then steadily rise again as radio and video airplay increase and then they should continue promoting.
May 22, 201114 yr I agree about some people are overreacting a bit, it's only been out for just less than a day, it's barely had radio play or anything. I would be a bit worried if it was at this position and had tons of promotion, big radio support etc, but not many people know about the song so 8 is really not that bad. :)
May 22, 201114 yr I think we may have underestimated Notorious. It was always going to either swing one way or another, but it seems to be doing ok! #8 now, and if you wanna check the popularity and %'s the check it here http://livepopbars.com/index.php?Region=14...t+%28Numbers%29. 100% 1 Pitbull Give Me Everything (feat.

May 22, 201114 yr Oh what a nice surprise that #8! I just connected now to iTunes and when I didn't see it at #10 I checked the lower positions, as I though it was probably going to fall.
May 22, 201114 yr I think it might peak next week, but i think this will do so much better than MissingYou. It's doing this good without much radio is worrying.. Imagine if this was the lead single for headlines.... :(

Imagine if this was the lead single for headlines.... :( If it was the only single before the album they would be promoting like hell. To get to #8 on itunes after 1 preformance and the video release is really good. Just have to hope they get some propper promo lined up over the next few weeks.
May 23, 201114 yr It's GOOD, but not their best by any means. It doesn't deserve to do any better than Higher, for example. That said, it could've been so, so much better - the 'chorus' sounds like it was supposed to be the world's greatest bridge, but it just doesn't take off like it's supposed to. ANNOYING. I'm still bizarrely entranced by it though, and haven't at all had it on repeat for the last hour or so. At all.
May 23, 201114 yr The girls said in an interview for Digital Spy that they are releasing Notorious in Germany and Europe instead of Higher. OH MY F-ING GOD Notorious is on sale on the Spanish iTunes...although when I click on it says it's not available. I guess they are uploading it and is just a matter of time. I didn't see it on the German Store though. Edited May 23, 201114 yr by The47thbelmon

I'm still bizarrely entranced by it though, and haven't at all had it on repeat for the last hour or so. At all. To be honest, i think in a sense of gaining a wider audience. Not just a limited tween audience with bubble gum pop, this is by far their best single because they're growing. Much like Girls Aloud did with "Sexy! No No No" or better yet "Something kinda Oooh" as someone mentioned earlier. I get the chorus thing but that's what makes this even more impressive. It's the one of the most uniquely structured song on the charts and that hook "Closer baby, look in my eyes do you recognize me" is soo catchy. But not so catchy that you get sick of the song quickly. That's the plus side of not having a strong chorus I guess, you don't get sick of the most obvious hook. Edited May 23, 201114 yr by Jaynote
May 23, 201114 yr Acording to the digital spy interview most of the promo is gonna be around the physical release so we are probably going to get a very odd chart run, probably only one week in the top 10.
May 23, 201114 yr Up to 6! :) I'm glad it isn't shooting up, it's better if it climbs steadily. Edited May 23, 201114 yr by LEW.
May 23, 201114 yr If they've got to #6 they can get to #5. It's really close. Edit: Notorious is also out in Australia. Although it's the same problem than in Spain: it is in the Store, but when you try to select it says "The item it's not available". Maybe they got it out too early? No sign of it in France, Germany or Belgium. Edited May 23, 201114 yr by The47thbelmon
May 23, 201114 yr Day 2 and it's still climbing? Brilliant! Let's just hope it dosen't start to trail off by Wednesday. Where do you think it will be in the midweeks tomorrow? I'm thinking #8 Edited May 23, 201114 yr by 2ndAdventure
May 23, 201114 yr Yeah I was thinking 8 as well and if it doesn't drop, then i think they could get 5 or 6 officially.
May 23, 201114 yr Yeah, I think it will be around 8-9 on the midweek tommorow. Madness that they're not promoting until the physical CD is out. Hopefully they have a BGT performance lined up!! Also Notorious is the lead single for Germany now.
May 23, 201114 yr Would be great if this just climbed to 1 on a quiet week or something on a chart run like this 8-5-3-1
May 23, 201114 yr The #1 this week was 71k. I think it could be up to 80k this week due to the size of the gap between #1 and #2 on iTunes.
