'Only Human' is the third single from Cheryl's latest album 'Only Human'.

Out 22nd March.

 

It's already peaked at #70 when Cheryl performed live on Children in Need back in November.

Haven't really heard it on any radio stations yet and Cheryl doesn't seem to have promote as much as she should so I think it depends on how much promotion she does around the release date as the song is one of her best as of yet.

Plus there's a club radio mix that's being released as well as the album version (people who have the album and are fans of Cheryl may buy the new version).

Outside top 40 :cry:

 

Deserves to be at least top 5 though :(

big flop. Will go top 60 from fanbase buys then fall out completely the following week

Streaming will ensure 'Only Human' gets nowhere near the top forty~

31 - 40

Being snubbed by radio so outside the top 40 sadly. What a shame for a great song.

Really strange that radio are snubbing Cheryl given that this track follows two consecutive #1 records (which none of the other album eras have produced). Actually yet to hear the track, but with streaming in play and a lack of radio support, I can see this peaking in the #41-60 region.

Like #50, unless Capital & Radio 1 decide to play it for a 2nd time -_-

 

I'm almost certain that something is going on behind the scenes, because even between 10's of other radio stations, only three of them (The Hits Radio, 106.3 Bridge FM & 3FM) have played this song more than THREE TIMES in THIRTY DAYS. Her husband commenting on Instagram about the single not being supported and mentioning Modest (her management) + Universal (label group) only elevates my suspicions.

I can't see how it will go top 40.

Let's put this rather blunt, nowhere near the 40, Jess Glynne will probably do better than her, plus left it too late to release a third single.

Sadly going to flop hard also added to the fact it's already sold several thousand and charted on the back of the CIN performace. With lack of promo and radio support her fanbase can probably get this to #55 as streaming will hammer this down the charts.

 

If she gets a few decent promo slots could scrape in at low Top 40 but again it's going to seriously suffer from streaming... Will probably be #23 in the first mids and slump to #56 by the Sunday :lol:

 

Maybe she could do a 'Beautiful Cause You Love Me' and pretend it never happened and the GA fans can claim it was a promo single only?!

It reminds me of the Enya tracks that were on Lord Of The Rings.

Haha, better chance for Owl City to get another #1 :kink:

I prediced 31-40 but come to think of it I suggest that for sales only. I think about 41-60 for combined :thinking:

Well, it's #391 on iTunes atm, and it's release week is in 2 weeks. I think it'll miss the top 40, unless the remix exceeds expectations and boosts it a load. It's not getting any significant radio airplay, so there's no way most people are going to know the song even exists.

Reminds me of Imogen Heap with the effects on her voice.

It's a great track, one of her best actually and from a really good album. But yeah this will flop given she just relies on turning up looking demure on late night chat shows for about 5 minutes these days and not doing that thing she used to do - y'know, actually performing the song? She will have only herself to blame if this tanks.

Really hope she pulls out all the stops and goes overtime on the promo... but that's never going to happen :( shame as it's one of her best songs :cry:

31-40 in sales, outside the Top 40 officially. This should of been released as the second single instead of 'I Don't Care' imo.

I can't believe the sub-title says "Will Cheryl achieve her 6th solo #1 single?", suggesting that it even has a remote chance. It would be nice for it to go Top 40 but realistically I'm thinking Top 60.

31-40, surely she has enough of a fanbase to at least manage that?
