June 13, 201213 yr A strong lead single is indeed very important and the time of release is too. I am sure they will stick with the November time release as is works so well for them and they then get to completly capitalize the Christmas Market.
June 13, 201213 yr Yeah early November release for the single and 2nd week release for the album, giving it 6 weeks of the Christmas market. It will be very very possible to sell between 1.6 and 1.8 million during those weeks, especially with a 400k opening week and then the subsequent 250-350k weekly sales after in the run up to Christmas. You can also bet that having been away since 2011 loads of TV shows will be lining them up to perform, XF is a certainty with Gary, Strictly, Children in Need, TOTPs, Interview performance i.e Jonathan Ross etc. Im very optimistic we will see another 2 million + selling album I just hope that they keep Europe in the loop rather than forget about the likes of Germany etc as they did when they released Circus. A number 2 for BW and a number 1 for Progress shows that if they put the effort and promo in then they can easily go top 5 there. German sales will probably be a big chunk of whatever they sell in Europe so I hope they dont forget about them Edited June 13, 201213 yr by jay727
October 8, 201212 yr Not sure if everyone has seen this but its quite an interesting read. http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j...TOfP0-OgrbRD8Eg It also says that TT will go back into the studio in January to start up the next record. Seems it is moving forward now, even Howard on twitter has said that he was meeting the boys last week to discuss future plans..hope we hear something soon! P.S - Gary is due to announce his solo gigs in a couple of weeks time!
