December 20, 201311 yr Author ya elton wont promote much maybe gary could have guest singers for promo bit like james morrison did with his nelly furtado duet broken stringd
December 20, 201311 yr Yeah! Or maybe he could record elton and play it on a screen? Debuts at 75 in Ireland this week! Hopefully the same for the UK
December 22, 201311 yr I just hope he has more plans in place for promo. Just think it might of been lost in the 4 hour OTT XF final weekend Edited December 22, 201311 yr by jay727
December 22, 201311 yr Author Im not sure as i would have thought he got the best slot as it was just before the winner was announced.
December 22, 201311 yr I thought the same, but with sales of top 10 around 25k (ish) something doesn't make sense as to why it didn't at least generate that many sales from an audience of 10million. Strangely Katy Perry and 1D didn't have any effect XF either
December 22, 201311 yr Author Katy Perry performed badly (vocally) so im not surprised but i am surprised with One Direction and Gary & Elton, i just feel people bought the albums.

That's the only reason I can think of as well. The album sold more last week than it did on it's first week so maybe that's it
December 24, 201311 yr Author Ya it was his highest weekly tally so far so i can only assume the face to face performance helped that, but sadly i really feel face to face will struggle to even make a low top 40 peak now when officially released. But i should say, back when i first heard of a new solo album i only ever expected one hit from it as that happen so many artists nowadays especially those of the well established nature like Gary, Kylie, Madoonna, U2, Robbie etc have all suffered more or less the same fate but each single even if it flops will help album sales. At this stage though i would think Gary and the record company will be content even at this stage with the overall performance of the album.
January 2, 201411 yr Hopefully it'll be packaged with a couple of Bsides when it's officially released. Wonder if he'll perform on the voice lol
January 2, 201411 yr Author i would think if he has the opportunity to perform on the voice he will well least id hope so as it looks like face to face will need every but of promo it can ger.
January 7, 201411 yr Hopefully that will bolt it up the charts, at this stage i would be happy if it can make the top 40 but it deserves top 3 if not number 1 as its so catchy and infectious.

I think he just needs to release a cd single version with a couple of bsides and maybe a live recording or something. Similar to Said It All.
January 10, 201411 yr I would have liked to have purchased cd singles of this era as i have all of previous singles on cd, but as mentioned the cd single days are sadly a thing of the past now.
