'Princess Of China' is back up to #98 :o Anyone know why?

The song is getting a few plays at Top 40 radio. Officially added next month.

I read something on Digital Spy about Justin Bieber's manager backing The Wanted - I think if they are properly backed they could break the US if they record a 'US version' to their album, and get with the times a bit more (ie more tracks like Glad You Came and maybe some more 'electro' or R&B tracks).
Princess Of China is their next single isnt it, and being performed at The Grammys. Definitely going to be huge, Coldplay and Rihanna!

They've so far played their cards right, with their debut perf on Ellen. My only problem is that they don't seem ready for the US primetime yet, if that awful perf. on Ellen was anything to go by. Thank God for them there's a shortage in the boyband dept. One Direction are slated to start their US conquest soon as well, so hopefully they can generate more publicity in a media created "battle of UK boybands" thing.

 

I think their new album minus a few tracks is US-ready.

Jls Must be gutted.

 

The Wanted - Glad You Came #57

Ellie Goulding - Lights #120

The Wanted's success in the USA is like WHAAAT chartfan-wise. It defines the odds and indeed makes some big slap at JLS who were really pushing 'Everybody in Love' back at the time and got to... nowhere. Good on TW, 'Glad You Came' is brilliant, I never thought it'd do well in US though. That said, it was a big international hit, and it peaked at #18 in the neighbour Canada. I hope for a top-10 now! Too wishful thinking but you would never have thought they'd crack the top-100!!! :lol:

COME ON KELLY! :w00t: Really hope she can keep climbing in the few weeks with airplay and stuff and then she gets another Hot 100 number 1! (top 5 would be nice too!)

 

EDIT: Oh and Al Green at #100? Is that down to Barack Obama singing a little bit of it at a conference thing? :P
