December 1, 201410 yr Author Some are saying the Yours single pack is now dropping 14th Dec! Has anyone seen that, what's the sense in that?
December 1, 201410 yr The thing that angers me is one of the worst songs of the year is keeping this from going top 10 on iTunes. :arrr:
December 1, 201410 yr The thing that angers me is one of the worst songs of the year is keeping this from going top 10 on iTunes. :arrr: IKR I actually wish Jealous did what LIB did but drop even further. Such a dullard! Anyway I think Ella is looking to do what Sam Smith did with "Like I Can" a few weeks ago. Not a bad result really. Edited December 1, 201410 yr by HonkBonkXMAS
December 1, 201410 yr I think the problem is Union J are benefiting from the boost but Yours was a freebie on Amazon before release so that probably has caused a loss in sales that would have made this go top ten? I don't think that makes much of a difference tbh. Amazon makes very little (I think 8-11%) sales off mp3 tracks compared to itunes. I doubt many people even knew it was free on amazon. Foxes' Holding Onto Heaven was a free track on itunes but managed to go #14 on its official release. So a smaller-sized mp3 market like Amazon shouldn't have affected it much. Then you have to take into the fact that it's a post-album single and not a pre-album release whilst Union J's track is a pre-album release not a post-album, so people will have the option to buy Ella's album instead of just 'Yours'. It's more of an album-seller than a single-seller so I wasn't expecting it to do any better than top 20, so it's surpassed my expectations in that sense :P Edited December 1, 201410 yr by NellyXmas.

December 1, 201410 yr Author They are prioritising album sales over the Xmas period. So they need longevity for Yours. The video is out 'this week', Jonathon Ross Saturday, the single bundle 14th is that's true... Along with assorted live performances. I guess they hope to keep it top 40 for at least 3 weeks....

Do you think the video will have any affect on the itunes performance, or at least stabilize it?
December 2, 201410 yr Yours has just hit iTunes #10 !!! It will more likely make it to top 10 on the sales only chart as some of the songs have streaming and NOW 89 on their side
December 2, 201410 yr She's made the Top 10 on iTunes. Anyone know why no decent videos of her performance are on YouTube yet? Just low quality versions with random graphics around the actual video. Her team keep posting images but no video. That would be an obvious thing to share to promote the track.
December 2, 201410 yr Heart Fm have stopped playing her too. :( It would do much better if Capital FM played it more often instead of playing "Ghost" all the time

A new Yours video is going on Vevo in the next few days....
December 2, 201410 yr Did Heart fm drop this? Basically my face when I see you've replied in the thread; seriously chill, release week isn't even over yet...
December 2, 201410 yr Author Haha Sean. -- She should be solid Top 10 for a while now, a bit of a gap, hope she gets some buzz from it-- and then we should get the new video in a day or two to help it along... btw the remixes seem pretty good this time. Like this 'wideboys' one http://www.muumuse.com/2014/12/premiere-el...oys-remix.html/
December 2, 201410 yr #14 in the midweeks, should stabilise with going top 10 and climbing on Spotify too. I think dropping the video in the week is a great strategy, now it's in the top 10 of iTunes that can boost it further. Edited December 2, 201410 yr by mr_aly
December 3, 201410 yr Author Confirmed the New Yours video is out Friday..... Ella has the following promo coming up (Thx Irish Blade!) Thurs, tomorrow, Key 103 Xmas show in Manchester Saturday Capital jingle bell ball Saturday Jonathon Ross appearance... So hopefully that will keep Yours in the top 10 for a while! Not sure how much of an impact a Wossy performance has, not much I guess?
