September 15, 20159 yr The Elvis Duran interview helped both the album and song rise a little today. Thunder is currently at #164 on Usa itunes and the album #25.On airplay Thunder has a negative update for the second day in a row.Todays update -8.Nice to see it rise a little on itunes but it's just not good enough.
September 22, 20159 yr Here's the video of Leona singing Thunder on James Corden late late show zI66EYj6u3Q
September 22, 20159 yr Currently 704 on iTunes. Think it is time to move on from this track now and on to a different single. Think they missed their golden opportunity to put this up for top 40 ads (though if it still flopped after that, then that would probably have been more damaging to her career stateside than leaving it off altogether).

I think it is for the best that it wasn't sent to Top 40 radio since I couldn't see it taking off massively. I think 'Fire Under My Feet' or a single version of 'I Got You' should be sent out to both HAC and Top 40 radio.
September 23, 20159 yr +5 update today on Hot AC.Why do they waste their time promoting this song? I'm beginning to wonder if Leona and Island records have any clue about the reality of what's really going on.#792 on itunes is horrible, especially after she performed on Ellen and James Corden. What a mess!
September 23, 20159 yr The song wasn't good enough for the radios to really take to it. She should have tried I Got You or Power in the US.

September 23, 20159 yr Do you ever stop complaining? Fair enough you've vented your frustrations, but I swear I read the exact same post from you almost every day. Didn't you say in a previous post that it's best that the Usa goes with a new single? Of course I'm gonna complain because Leona and Island records Continue to promote a song that's in the 700 ' s on itunes. They should have learned their lesson when Ellen had no effect on sales.Time to release FUMF OR I got you.

They should have learned their lesson when Ellen had no effect on sales.Time to release FUMF OR I got you. Yes I did but it's tiring reading pretty much the same post over and over from you. Why would she perform a track on Ellen or James Corden that hasn't even been sent to radio? That's going to do less than what 'Thunder' is doing now. The GMA performance had a positive impact so you can't really blame the label for wanting to try some more with 'Thunder'. It's better than Syco's mentality of "oh this didn't get to #1 so let's give up on the entire era".

September 25, 20159 yr Thunder on HAC +15 spins +13 bullets +0.107 audience 2.623 peak audience Edited September 25, 20159 yr by Dmdr
September 26, 20159 yr HAC 26 27 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 921 865 56 2.743 +6 Spins +5 Bullet 0.120 Audience AC 32 36 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 65 68 -3 0.456 +1 Spin +2 Bullet +0.000 Audience #1023 on US iTunes. Was higher earlier in the week with promotion. They need to send it to pop to really get it moving up on iTunes if they plan on pushing it htere. Good audience updates on HAC.
September 27, 20159 yr It's nice to see it remaining stable at #1008 with the weekend effect, it wouldn't surprise me if radio continued picking up within the next week and 'Thunder' climbs top 500 following Taylor performance, it's such a shame that James Cordan & Ellen had no affect for the single or album. The album has also climbed back up to #758 on iTunes.
September 27, 20159 yr Thunder could be a sleeper hit. It is taking a long damn time to wake up! Lol.
September 27, 20159 yr It seems to be picking up again on HAC radio, lets hope it continues and grows.
