June 25, 20178 yr Radio play is amazing. Fingers crossed it can go top 40 this week or next with the One Show performance too! Wonder if Radio 1 will end up A listing it :w00t:
June 25, 20178 yr Hopefully it can go top 40 but i cant see it been any more now than a minor hit which is a shame.
June 26, 20178 yr For me, this is the best video of the year, there's no competition. :wub: The song is good, but not amazing though.
June 27, 20178 yr Author Anyone know if they are still performing on The One Show tomorrow? They are indeed. No other performances that I'm aware of yet!
June 27, 20178 yr Clearly they're going to push this into the top 40 but I don't see it sticking around for long. With all the airplay Olly gets you'd think his singles would do a bit better but clearly he's more suited for the albums market now. Poor Louisa Johnson can't seem to catch a break though, I expect she'll pop her head on another Clean Bandit single to try and give her some more popularity.

Poor Louisa Johnson can't seem to catch a break though, I expect she'll pop her head on another Clean Bandit single to try and give her some more popularity. The only reason they don't do better is because his fans - present company included - are generally not streamers (that makes us sound like a party decoration. I jest) which is where he generally falls down. You Don't Know Love and Kiss Me, for example, would've been top 10s without streaming factored in. I doubt he loses too much sleep over it TBH. The album and the tours and the continued success of those are more of his concern. Also '24 Hrs' the album is a bit more of a maturer sound and whilst it has been a number one and gone platinum (close to double now), it's not exactly 'Right Place Right Time' territory on a singles or sales front, as a lot of fans are still adjusting to this new sound of his. 'Dance With Me Tonight' and 'Troublemaker' still get the biggest cheers on tour. Hopefully another hit of that standing comes with album 6. As for Louisa...I'm fully expecting the 'Syco can confirm they have parted ways' speech by year's end. Edited June 27, 20178 yr by ThePensmith

June 27, 20178 yr Louisa does have so much potential. I really think out of most of Syco's signed artists she offers the most potential of recent years.

Poor Louisa Johnson can't seem to catch a break though, I expect she'll pop her head on another Clean Bandit single to try and give her some more popularity. Doubt they'd let her. Clean Bandit are a chart force nowadays. 'Tears' always smacked of a bought-for feature by Cowell or Syco to give Louisa an initial leg-up. Especially after Clean Bandit have had moments of breaking America and have a collab with Sam Smith in the pipeline. Louisa's hardly playing in that ballpark.
June 27, 20178 yr I think they need to release Louisa's album to see how she'll do. I think releasing it in Q4 will be a big mistake if it comes this year
June 27, 20178 yr Doubt they'd let her. Clean Bandit are a chart force nowadays. 'Tears' always smacked of a bought-for feature by Cowell or Syco to give Louisa an initial leg-up. Especially after Clean Bandit have had moments of breaking America and have a collab with Sam Smith in the pipeline. Louisa's hardly playing in that ballpark. But it has been confirmed that Clean Bandit do in fact have another collaboration with Louisa? :unsure:
June 27, 20178 yr Louisa's album is gonna do so terrible. Q4 with bigger XF guns. It smells like a disaster.
June 27, 20178 yr Either way I'll be buying it and if she gets dropped so be it. Least I'd of got one album. I hope she isn't going with Bad Habit as the next single it doesn't sound that great in the muffled live video on Youtube. She definitely should have gone down the 'So Good' sounding route, the bubblegum dance pop is not the way forward at all. Ciao Adios would have been good for her, something a bit more edgy.

June 30, 20178 yr Author Acoustic video: H6OD2I2mVcU The One Show performance: 4sBqQFm79r4 He's on Sunday Brunch on Channel 4 at 9:30am on Sunday - no Louisa though, as The Vamps are on too and are the performance guests. Still. Any excuse to see Olly eating stuff he doesn't like and pulling a face like a toddler :D
