Why is Power back on the chart?

It was used for a advert for Forza Motorsport 4

as someone above said the 59p songs are getting ridiculous now, holding back new songs from entering the top 40,surely songs should start at 59p and increase in price when theyre trying to promo the next single?

From the chart point of view it would be good to see new songs entering high but after their price is increased they would tumble hard. :(

From commercial point of view this would be totally stupid.

 

The 59p promo's purpose is to gain extra sales. If new songs are 59p and later their price get increased they would lose a lot of sales.

UK singer, Will Young, a politics graduate, shot to fame in 2002 as the winner of the first series of the UK reality TV programme, Pop Idol. Young racked up record-breaking advance orders of 1.2 million for his debut single, the double a-side, "Anything Is Possible/Evergreen". It went straight to the top of the charts in March, going on to become the best-selling single of the decade in the UK. Despite the poor critical reaction to his debut album, FROM NOW ON, Young won over his critics through sheer hard work, his constant touring helped maintain his media profile. The hard work paid off in December 2003, when the single "Leave Right Now"--written by original Brother Beyond member 'Eg' White--and his second album, FRIDAY'S CHILD, both topped the UK charts. Young's critical rehabilitation was complete by the time his third album, KEEP ON, was released--to favourable reviews--in November 2005. - HMV

'Power' was also 59p which probably helped it more than being on the Forza ad.

'Fix You' is definitely gone if it's not #31 I reckon.

The 59p promo's purpose it too gain extra sales. If new songs are 59p and later their price get increased they would lose a lot of sales.

 

 

i see your point though i was thinking increasing price to 99p a decent amount of time after they had been top 20...just seems 59p songs get in the way of new songs rising up the chart.

this must be something new, that they don't play the whole song just the first 2 mins or so.

 

If they will play the whole top 40 I don't mind it.

Still like All fired up. 6 weeks in the top 40 is not that bad ladies! :dance:
i see your point though i was thinking increasing price to 99p a decent amount of time after they had been top 20...just seems 59p songs get in the way of new songs rising up the chart.

Kinda agree, it's annoying to see very old songs back in the chart. Mostly though these songs are not getting any higher than the low 30s except some songs that are in an advert, X Factor etc.

 

It looks like one of the casualties of these re-entries this week is Wolfgang Gartner's new song that was around 39-40 in the mids.

annoying the way reggie choses to skip jealousy when it hasnt been given much plays by radio 1 and yet play the saturdays and someone like you which have been played loads!!
Wish SLY would go away its so boring and overrated imo -_-

Gutted All Fired Up has had such a bad chart run. It seems The Sats can never get a break with their singles.

 

At least it done better than 'Collide', though.

This has definitely grown on me a lot, as all of his singles tend to. I start off finding them ok and then they eventually become my favourite songs of the year :lol:
