July 24, 201114 yr in the 70s/80s when artists released their 2/3/4th singles did they climb in the fashion of adele and other artists who can quite go top 10 In the 80s and 90s the album was often not released until after the second single.
July 24, 201114 yr Quite ironic that Adele is nominated for so many MTV awards really. :lol: Also, did anybody hear that even Reggie thinks Party Rock Anthem and Where Them Girls At sounds similar! :o
July 24, 201114 yr I think this was SFTTR's last chance of making Top 10! :( Last week was IMO - it never had a shot at top 10 this week, I'm just glad it's managed a second week at #11 because that'll obviously be its peak as annoying as it is. Should still be around for ages and sell loads.
July 24, 201114 yr In the 80s and 90s the album was often not released until after the second single. so did the 3rd single struggle?
July 24, 201114 yr just realised hitz is released on vinyl next week, might peak higher than 39 afteer all?!
July 24, 201114 yr in Nov 84 The riddle single (1st track off the album) was 2 weeks before the album, same with Human Racing and the single wouldnt it be good, but it was a year before When a heart beats was on the LP

July 24, 201114 yr so did the 3rd single struggle? Remember that there was usually a further incentive for people who already owned the album to buy the singles which frequently contained brand new b-sides, which don't really seem to happen anymore - and if they do you can just cherry pick the b-side! I've lost count of the amount of Corrs singles for example that I bought post album, but if they released a new album now, there'd be no point in downloading individual songs that I already have elsewhere. Considering the amount of people that own 21 already, and the fact that it doesn't have a video so zero TV exposure, #11 is a very credible peak for Set Fire To The Rain imo!
July 24, 201114 yr just realised hitz is released on vinyl next week, might peak higher than 39 afteer all?! Vinyl won't really help it that much, its only hope of climbing is if it does a 'Bubbles' (Biffy Clyro) which just scraped in at #40 then climbed to #34 the next week presumably just because of it being top 40 the previous week as there was no other reason for it to be climbing.
July 24, 201114 yr The Thomas Gold Remix is INCREDIBLE imo. So epic. Oh really? Havent heard that one! Going to listen to it now! :w00t: I LOVE the Moto Blanco remix! :D
July 24, 201114 yr Example's last week in the top 10 :( Ah well, 7 weeks isn't too bad, but it started so well spending 4 weeks top 2! Edited July 24, 201114 yr by Bré
July 24, 201114 yr Could we have an all static top 12? No? it is, thats why i asked the questions earlier
July 24, 201114 yr in Nov 84 The riddle single (1st track off the album) was 2 weeks before the album, same with Human Racing and the single wouldnt it be good, but it was a year before When a heart beats was on the LP Why are you talking about Nick Kershaw? :/
July 24, 201114 yr 9 (from 7) Example - Changed The Way You Kiss Me [D] http://a1.mzstatic.com/us/r30/Music/3c/8b/93/mzi.zelnpzdh.100x100-75.jpg Chart Run: 1-1-2-2-4-7-9 [7 wks] Release date: 05-06-2011 Format: download only single Label: Ministry Of Sound Video here: CLXt3yh2g0s Chart history (Year peak title): 2009 19 Watch The Sun Come Up 2010 06 Won't Go Quietly 2010 03 Kickstarts 2010 27 Last Ones Standing 2010 29 Monster (Professor Green Feat.

July 24, 201114 yr Honestly thought 'Last Friday Night' would re-peak this week - but a (24-11-9-9-10-10) chart run is looking to get nothing but worse. However, if Example, Derulo and Harris are to be replaced by Winehouse, JLS and Sabre - this could potentially climb to #8 (depending on how well Amy Winehouse does during the week).
