I've now heard this 3 times in 2 days on Kiss

This gets a rare boost on iTunes every time it's played on R1, which goes to show that when it's on proper rotation it'll do great. It's up 10 places since yesterday on iTunes

Good to hear! I hope the video release isn't too far off so that Capital actually start giving it a few spins. Their video boosts are always pretty substantial.

apparently this is on capital's daytime playlist from tomorrow. Not high yet, but it should help.

Great!

 

I think they will bounce back to top 20 with the video and then slowly to top 10 when the airplay kicks in.

Ok this made me hopeful again. Come thru, smasha

I think this will be one of those slow rising hits. I don't think LM have ever really had one of these before. I can see it going top 10 when it all kicks in.

It would have been the same for Hair and Touch would have been the same if Hair had not had its video released and if Touch had not been performed on X Factor. TOuch was like #97 before the X Factor performance.

 

 

Edit: Actually, Secret Love Song took almost a month to go top 40 after being announced/playlisted.

56 Little Mix No More Sad Songs (feat. Machine Gun Kelly)

 

Up 13 places because Grimmy played it this morning.

Nice climb! Hopefully it carries on! Spotify needs to get a big boost too please.

They need to make something to create buzz for this. I don't know, I hate video previews, but maybe drop 30 seconds of it for a UK show for people to know they have a new single coming.. do something.

 

I will say though, if this really underperforms, it will be good for them to realise they need to put in work

It really annoys me that they are expected to "put in work" to get hits though, when the likes of Drake, Chainsmokers, Justin Bieber, Ed etc.. can do so LITTLE and get massive hits. I know Ed's done so much with his new era, but he was already gonna be getting huge numbers irregardless!

 

I just think the only reason as to why it's not done quite as well (or so it seems) on initial impact, is because the timing was really wrong! It seems to be holding up rather nicely and gaining steady ground again now that Ed's tracks are slowly falling away now.

 

It'll be a hit no matter what I think. Once they release the video (which I believe won't happen until they're ready to promote) I reckon we'll be seeing healthier climbs! On paper this is a good strategy. It takes a couple of weeks for streams to build, so send that out whilst they're still in America, let radio slowly pick it up, drop the video and then promote as streaming is about to hit the peak and just as the video effect wears off.

B list now, still not great for airplay with Capital not playing it (they took it off), but it should help a bit. We need the video though. No Little Mix single other than leads has been a hit without the video or a performance.

Capital took it off the playlist? Surely something is amiss behind the scenes? They've hammered everything Little Mix since 'Black Magic' -- even 'Oops' for a while!

Off daytime yes, (after 1 day). I think it's simply because it's too low on iTunes at the moment. I don't think anything is amiss with Little Mix because they're still hammering Touch,

That makes sense, although it's such backwards logic since, y'know, it actually needs airplay to make a dent on iTunes. Then again, this is the same station that seems to think the big top 40 is somehow representative of music consumption in 2017.

I just hope by the time airplays kicks in, most of Ed album tracks disappear from Spotify top 20

Apparently they're falling away quite a bit atm! So he won't be cluttering up nearly as much as he has been. It'll all be OK in the end! :D

Where does it say this? They're in Canada on the DW Tour next weekend.
