Posted December 17, 201113 yr nZXGITQYw5c Released 15th January 2012. Fourth single released under the name Swedish House Mafia, in collaboration with the Pendulum side project Knife Party. I think this could possibly have a chance of reinstating the 'big early year dance hit' phenomenon that was curiously absent in 2011 (Hello was shaping up to be it but never really took off). Or it might flop. I don't know. What do you think? SHM's last 3 singles all went top 10 so I think this should be a relatively safe bet to continue that especially as sales are likely to be piss poor when it gets released. Already got C-List support from Radio 1 and I suspect it'll jump straight to the A-List after the Christmas freeze is over. This deserves to be #1 FOREVER but I'm going to predict 6-10, around #8.
December 17, 201113 yr It's a bit underwhelming for me and I literally don't know how well it will do. I tagged 6-10 for now.
December 17, 201113 yr I think about 4 or 5, it screams new year big dance hit. I'd like it get top 10, brilliant song!
January 13, 201213 yr Author Bumping this as the release is now 2 days away and barely anybody predicted when I first posted this :lol:
January 13, 201213 yr I'm hoping it goes top 10 - but 'Save the World' was their best release, fantastic vocals and a really great video - and that only scrapped the top 10 for a single week. But it's January, and people are looking for new releases. Am going to predict #11-20 though, as I have my doubts - but hopefully #6-10.
January 13, 201213 yr I guess I'm alone in thinking this will be huge? :P I'd be quite surprised if it missed the top 5 :o I think 2-3 atm, but number 1 wouldn't surprise me either, I generally think its a bit disappointing in comparison to One and Miami 2 Ibiza but its still pretty good
January 13, 201213 yr I think if an on air, on sale song from them, which wasn't that good, can debut in the top 10, this must surely do at least that well. I can see it charting anywhere between #1 and #5.

'Antidote' could be a big selling single, or at least very good first week sales.

'Antidote' could be a big selling single, or at least very good first week sales. Cover Drive is out the week after next according to the new release schedule? (Unless that's just the CD, although I'm sure the download release date is usually listed separately as well...) In any case I can't see 'Twilight' going any higher than low top 20.

Twilight is released on the 22nd digitally so nothing for Swedish House Mafia to worry about. That said, when it's released I'm pretty sure Twilight will debut at least low top 10 and perhaps top 5...it will have a lot more staying power too. It's got more exposure than Lick Ya Down did, ok it's not Radio 1 playlisted but Capital are on board again and so are Heart! That and it's a FAR better song. Antidote will be a #1, I can see it getting quite a generous initial lead on iTunes too. Just has that feel to it of a guaranteed chart topper.
January 14, 201213 yr I guess I'm alone in thinking this will be huge? :P *sings Michael Jackson You are not alone* ^_^ Think and want #1 :wub:
January 14, 201213 yr If it's #01 it'll be the best #01 in years. It's really great to see a style emerge and become a contender for the top spot!
January 14, 201213 yr I feel like a fail Pendulum fan for not knowing Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen were Knife Party. Now I really want this to be #1 :lol:
