it's hardly a song to be released, but the video is a QT idea i guess.

In all fairness, Alan Carr rarely has much of an effect on the chart! I remember The Vamps' Last Night having one dark green update following their performance and then nothing else lol.

 

It's odd really, I know ratings are lower but Norton has SUCH an effect usually. It might be to do with the fact the songs are followed by credits whereas Graham continues the show with more chat and the red chair.

I'm undecided how I feel about this single. We've still got till the 1st of June before it's official release so maybe with some radio playlisting and some TV performances (dare I say it, possibly BGT) we could get a Top 20 peak and then I'd be very happy with the Sucker campaign. 'Need Your Love' is my favourite but that can never be a single.

 

For an album that peaked at 15 (I believe) to get two top 10s, a top 20 and a top 40 is decent enough if this follows through.

 

Video is cute though :P

I've just noticed Famous is 59p on iTunes and that doesn't seem to be helping either.

Only from late last night - It is helping a bit. Up to 164 from 202 this morning.

Its just not a commercial song

I'm not expecting much from this song, but I would like to see a top 100 entry. It has now charted at #176 as of last week and is now up to #88 on iTunes, A-list is helping it, it won't make the top 100 this week, but might next week. (149 in yesterday's midweeks)

Took me ages to get around to listening to this but sounded great actually. Hope it does well in the chart :please:

#149 in the midweeks is rather tragic considering its A-Listed, Had prime time TV exposure, a video, Reduced to 59p on iTunes, Available to stream and is from a poor selling album meaning not many people already own it....

Looks like 'Famous' will not make the top 100. I have grown to really love it but it was a silly single choice. #133 in yesterday's midweeks.

 

I predict the same thing is going to have that happened with so many of my favourites. Where maximum radio support (two weeks radio 1 A list) resulting in still flopping hinders the support of the next, far superior single.

 

It happened with Jessie Ware 'You & I', Katy Perry's 'Birthday', for example. Both of which had maximum support, and didn't do that well (in their own ways) - and then 'Champagne Kisses' and 'This is How We Do' got like C-C-B-B out type support and even though they outsold the singles that came before, but were never able to properly smash.

 

I can see this happening with "need ur luv'
