Charted at #86 this week. Surprised it's still top 100. :o

I expected it would have remained top #75 especially with the 'Gentleman' promo.

 

It's #123 on iTunes, I can't help but think this would have performed better if it was released last week, I'm loving 'What About Us' in the sun, it's incredible. Hopefully it manages to get another week top 100. It should pass 360,000, only another 40,000 to go....

19 - 19 - 359,400 - Saturdays - What About Us

20 - 20 - 356,800 - Duke Dumont ft AME - Need U (100%)

 

Hanging in at #19!

So this would have to average 1,500 sales per week for the rest of the year in order to pass the 400,000 mark. That seems very doable, but a price reduction would probably allow it to happen in half the time.

Surprised at how it's holding up in New Zealand, it's still #97 there.

 

And still #2 on YTD TV airplay here. :o Pretty amazing.

That awk moment you see WAU for the sixth time in an hour when flicking thru the music channels and realise its now over taken AFU and MY and become your fave...

Still top 100 in Ireland :D

Okay I now believe this definitely needs a price reduction. It's sold about 360K which is great but I REALLY want this to get a Brit nomination because let's face it, it might be their only chance of ever getting one. It's still July and we no doubt have One Direction, Olly Murs, James Arthur, XF winning single and other songs that will overtake them and push them down the best British sellers list even further. :(

 

Either that or it needs to be used on X-Factor. Lol.

Well, it also became the fast selling single of the year at one point and is top 5 in both tv and radio airplay. I don't think its only just on sales as All about tonight by Pixie Lott touched 380,000 copies around the time she got nominated for best single. In my view they will probably get it regardless.

Brits 2013 nominations were for the Top 15 best selling British singles of 2012, so I assume it'll be the same next time. Last year all of the Top 15 sold 400k+.

 

I think it may end up being a bit touch and go as to whether The Saturdays are in the Top 15 by the end of the year?

 

Notably Cheryl's 'Call My Name' was the fastest selling single of 2012 (until James Arthur), but that ended up being the 16th best selling British single of the year, thus not qualifying for a nomination. Unlucky!

They're currently the 7th biggest selling British song of the year. 'Need U' is only 3K behind them so will probably overtake in a few weeks seeing as he's still top 100 and they're not.

 

Olly, One Direction and the XF winning song is a definite to overtake them and then no doubt Rihanna/Katy Perry/Lady GaGa/Beyonce whoever returns later this year will as well and then of course all the artists performing on X-Factor.

 

It would be typical Saturdays luck if they were 16th of the year.

Slow and steady wins the race ;)

Maybe the next single and album will give it the boost that Gentleman was supposed to?

I have come to a conclusion WAU>>>>Lady Gaga's entire career.

Oh no no no. Lady Gagas Dance In The Dark is better than anything that she's released or the girls have done!!

They're currently the 7th biggest selling British song of the year.

 

then no doubt Rihanna/Katy Perry/Lady GaGa/Beyonce whoever returns later this year will as well and then of course all the artists performing on X-Factor.

 

But these popstars aren't even British. :unsure:

From this, it seems like UK supports its acts < foreign acts...

I have come to a conclusion WAU>>>>Lady Gaga's entire career.

 

I'm slightly contradicting this, feel OYR>>>>>>>>>>Lady Gaga's entire career, except that OYR was poorly marketed. It would have done a Katy Perry'esque run on the charts. Almost all songs were single material, like what Teenage Dream had. The right kinda marketing technique, with innovative video choices, would have made wonders.

on your radar is one of the worst albums ever

 

awful album with 2 amazing singles, N and AFU, such a shame, i was so excited for that album...

On Your Radar is definitely the best (in terms of less fillery) album they've done!

 

'Get Ready, Get Set' and 'Faster' were screaming to be singles, even 'Wish I Didn't Know' could have worked as a ballad single.
