Posted February 9, 201312 yr -BskHE-GZUs Second single off 'Right Place Right Time' out 10th March and follow up to 'Troublemaker' which is now doing rather well in the US on Billboard and in Germany again as well ('Heart Skips a Beat' was apparently the 10th biggest selling single of last year there. AMAZING.) Anyway...the video above is the live studio performance he did for the deluxe version of the album release. Actual video leaked early on Virgin Media OnDemand for all of an hour yesterday before it got re-embargoed so we'll be seeing it this week I imagine - the few people who have seen it have said there's loads of Ollys in it and it's a bit futuristic and 'out there'. Capital and Radio 1 are behind this already on the airplay front. This is one of my favourite songs on the album after 'Dear Darlin' and 'What a Buzz' so I'm glad they've gone with this next, I love what the lyrics say about sticking by an artist you support through good and bad but it's not corny. It was actually meant to be the first single in August last year before 'Troublemaker' but then the One Direction US tour got in the way of his plans/schedule. I sincerely hope he gets another top 10 at least with this rather than just do well on airplay and only go top 20 like some of the other post album singles have done in the past (Heart on my Sleeve, Oh My Goodness). However it's release is right in the middle of the UK tour so I don't know how much promotion he'll do. Thoughts?
February 9, 201312 yr I can see peaking at about #12/#11 but sticking around a bit. Hopefully it pushes a little more and gives him another top 10 though, great song :wub:
February 9, 201312 yr This is his best post-album single and I expect it will easily go top 10. If the p*ss poor Oh My Goodness managed #13, this should easily beat that. I'm hoping and think it could probably nab a week in the top 5.
February 10, 201312 yr The reason for his huge success has always eluded me, but he seems to have enough of a fanbase to take this to the margins of the top 10 at least.
