I think the success of this depends hugely on how it does in the US, or rather how the media view how it does in the US. It seems to have plenty going for it that '30 Days' didn't have - Capital are playing it (well, according to Lee) and fans seem to actually like it rather than thinking "eh, it's not completely awful" so I find it hard to imagine it doing any worse than their previous single. But after that, I think the media will play a huge role. If the papers cover their attempt to break the US positively (and often) then it could perhaps be their first #1. But if they ignore it / comment negatively, the song will be a #5 that has no longevity. Will be interesting to see how it goes.

I am going to go out on a limb and say, this is their first single with Rochelle getting the opening lines and say that will make it their first number one.

OK, just seen there's a CD single again. They must be the only pop act who still do CD singles full time in the UK now! In that case top 10 would perhaps be a better suggestion.

It's way too early to tell until at least early March, but right now I'm thinking this will mirror 'All Fired Up's performance exactly. A solid #3 or #4.

Nah, it is going to be their first #6 hit. :angel:

I'm not sure, it's probably too early to say. I'd be inclined to say it could be another All Fired as some people have said, but the long gap between UK and US release could equally either mean it's a #1 (almost certainly a non number 1) or a #9 or something. But I do think they're going to put more effort into this than 30 Days given the latter was a non album single that seemed to only serve the purpose of keeping their name alive a bit between albums, so it should be a top 5. Top 10 is pretty safe anyway even if they did promote it at a 30 Days level.

Just heard this and I must admit this is pretty good for them. Seeing the girls form i nthe past this won't be number 1 but a surefire for the top 3 imo.

 

Also Sean Paul is not really needed in the song but he's bearable too :D

Bump - getting close to release date now...

I'm going to say #1 although probably have an awful chart run.

Feels like it's been around for AGES. It's a tricky one but I'm going to go with top 5.

This WON'T be #1. Top 3 at best.

I think this could potentially be their first #1, I know a lot of people who are enjoying the song but aren't usually Sats fans.

 

Having said that, I'd be in no way shocked at all if it was just top 5.

I think they could actually be on course for their first #1 with this now (mainly due to being a dead week, but alas).

 

The only other time I really genuinely thought they were in with a shout was with 'Just Can't Get Enough'.

#01. I actually cant see it charting any lower. Most obvious #01 in a while ... watch me be wrong.

DON'T GET MY HOPES UP JACKY :(

This will be a MILLION seller. All those that disagree can stay pressed.

Love you toby.

I think top 5. Number 1 just depends on the sales climate at the time of release. I think it'll open with 60k-65k but have a quick and swift chart run (maybe 8 weeks top 40). The UK release is too far away and I think that may hinder it's success. I know airplay hasn't started yet, but it's available on youtube now, so they're losing out on sales and people will get bored of the song by the time of UK's release. It's frustrating.

8 weeks top forty? The Saturdays wish! I don't think there's a chance it will miss the top 40, I think it will debut around #04, might debut higher but should be incredibly frontloaded

How wrong are we going to be Lee?! :o

 

I think this has a very, VERY good chance at number 1 and be a surprise and steady seller now. It's going to be their longest running chart hit in a while I think! Not quite sure overall total sales will match 'Up'/'Ego'/'Higher', but I think it'll get close! A very similar run to Kelly Clarkson's 'My Life Would Suck Without You' is what I'm thinking for this now!

I know! As if it will sell near 60,000! :lol:

 

Nah but c'mon, longest chart run in a while. Did you see the chart runs of All Fired Up, My Heart Takes Over & 30 Days. Not going to be hard to beat!

I actually think 60k-65k is still possible. Then the week after (?) is the Now! release so providing it's not "album only", could hold it steady and prevent it from having a 1-8 type drop...
