Posted October 26, 200618 yr We are in a race for number one this week with Girls Aloud - with your help we will end up at number one! Thanks to HMV and Virgin for offering a special of all 3 formats together for only 5 pounds! A lot of you have asked about a tour DVD. The label did not plan one this time but we filmed one night at Wembley ourselves with 10 cameras. We just set up a new download of Star Girl live from Wembley - you just text STARGIRL to 81330 in the UK for only 1 pound - and it counts as another single sale! You then get to see us performing it from Wembley as a free bonus! Oh dear :rolleyes:
October 26, 200618 yr if the OCC don't say anything, or at least change the rules after this farce, then the credibility of the UK charts is going to the dogs. I think its time they banned 99p singles and 3 for £5
October 26, 200618 yr it is infair as its a huge advantage to them,u take it it a young kid goes into a shop and likes both the girls aloud single and mc fly,mammy looks at thge prices which will she pick do u think,exactly the cheaper one
October 26, 200618 yr indeed :( it should be a level playing field for all. £1.99 - for the 2 tracks £2.99/£3.99 for the Maxi's/DVD's
October 26, 200618 yr It is a shame! I saw some girl pick up all 3 formats of the single in HMV on Monday because of this. I trust McFly will sell next to nothing for the rest of the week now, and Girls Aloud will continue to be strong sellers, so hopefully Girls Alould will get #1 on Sunday.
October 26, 200618 yr i think the REAL battle is next week with no strong singles out. Buy GA, bye McFly :cheer:
October 27, 200618 yr It doesn't make a difference anyway. They wouldn't be number one if McFly were DSQ as Fedde will be!
October 27, 200618 yr It doesn't make a difference anyway. They wouldn't be number one if McFly were DSQ as Fedde will be! oh rly ^_^ still Fedde remains under GA on iTunes and midweeks ;)
October 27, 200618 yr oh rly ^_^ still Fedde remains under GA on iTunes and midweeks ;) True, but if the trend continues of the rate at which Fedde is closing on GA, then he should finish comfortably ahead of GA by Sunday's chart. ....and Dance records traditionally sell strongly on Saturday's.... -_-
October 27, 200618 yr Girls Aloud also pick up on Saturdays! Remember "Biology" being at No.5 under Will Young during midweeks but then ending up at No.4 ahead of him on the final chart.
October 27, 200618 yr But Fedde has caught up 4.5k in just 3 days. Barring a minor mircale he'll be ahead!
October 28, 200618 yr GA surged on downloads last weekend ;) #5 wasn't expected this one's going down to the deadline ;) and trends mean nothing :P
October 28, 200618 yr I'm not too keen on Something Kinda Ooh but I hope GA can get to #1 all the same as they're far superior to McFly. -_-
