Very different tactic :lol:

Jesus wept, she's down to 14 in the midweeks already. She could legitimately miss the top 20. What a shambles.

Mess.

 

Stereophonics at #2 :kink: probably gonna do more in their opening week than Leona will do in total

Where did you get that? She's 9. Still pretty shit but not THAT bad. 6 new entires ahead of her. 9 new entires behind her

Digital Spy. Should've known better!

#9 praying for top 10 but know thats unlikely now, maybe later on..

 

Glad to hear James Corden confirmed, would love car karaoke!!!! They always go crazy over the web!

 

Can't wait to see her on Ellen, has that been confirmed?

 

She sounded amazing on GMA, her best performance of Thunder yet imo.

Its highly unlikely she'll get a top 10 now, so that's disappointing, here is hoping it doesn't drop too much and remains Top 15.

 

I worry what the next few weeks for the album bring though.

Leona knows her audience haha.

It's 14 on iTunes.

 

9 in the actual midweeks, down one place from Saturdays 8 position.

 

I think it'll end up at 12-13-ish maybe, since sales are lower on Mondays through Thursdays.

Hopefully it will at least match the #13 peak of Christmas with Love.

 

On a side note, I'm really loving You Knew Me When. She sounds incredible on it - it sounds like a massive Winter smash it.

Got to say The Essence of Me has grown massively on me. Absolutely love this, the chorus is brilliant.

The whole Grindr thing may help a very small amount, but it has made her a complete laughing stock. I've seen countless amounts of people on my Twitter and even Facebook completely ribbing her for it.

How is the Grindr thing supposed to work? You buy on the app. or via link to Amazon or itunes. Most Grindr uses, I believe, use it for free, and people can be very reluctant to provide credit card info on such platforms. I wonder how its supposed to work out.

I think I read it takes you to another store, it might be Google Play or something like that as they have the album at the special price too.

So it's basically a Google Play promo. It's not remotely bad in that case. In such scenarios, actually, an online retailer still compensates a merchant at the full-retail price. The goal of such promos is to get sign-ups onto a particular retail store. It's such a non-story, maybe DJ can throw up one on Tinder too and make it clear where the discounted purchases are being made.

Awful decision no idea who thought that would be a good idea. Blergh.

 

Down to #23 on UK iTunes too AND DISCOUNTED TO £6.99. So all the die hard fans who pre-ordered or bought it in the first few days paid £5 more wow. I thought £11.99 was too steep.

Wow, that's a huge insult to those who bought it over the weekend.

Ouch.

That was expected..the label try to get the maximum profit before with a full price and then discounted for getting other people that are not die hard fan but have liked leona in the past, considering we do not have a single charting

I've not known an album to be reduced during release week though...

 

They're probably panicking a bit. But it's their own fault. Next to nothing was done to create hype around the era.

 

I'm annoyed as I paid full price to help a hen out.
