March 18, 20196 yr Oh Ok. Sorry i wasn't aware. That means it's only a matter of time till it reaches the Silver certification, since it looks stable in spotify Top 100, also for the next couple of weeks, this will add around 10.000 units every week, and even when it goes out of Top 200, it will still add a few thousands every week till it become silver. There's only a Top 100 chart! (Since July 2017)
March 18, 20196 yr #81 on mids Strong rumor they will announce more tour, Asian dates on the 21 like Jakarta BSD ICE August 7. Tickets will be opened on the 28th
March 19, 20196 yr Its confirmed they will perform on the Dancing With the Stars final on the 24th. https://twitter.com/Hema_ByrnesArmy/status/...839999041515523 I wonder if they will perform HML or a new song. I presume HML but it would be a great idea to actually perform a new single if they really are planning to release it very soon.

I presume HML but it would be a great idea to actually perform a new single if they really are planning to release it very soon. One Facebook fansite claims the lads will perform the new single on Dwts Ireland Finale on Sunday and it will be called "Better Man". They claim they do not post fake news. Let's see
March 19, 20196 yr Hehe, you must have seen my questions over this site, for a source etc but i got nothing... to me it is highly doubted and i dont mean it might be untrue.. just they didnt show any proofe.

March 22, 20196 yr Thanks. Hello My Love sales must have reached 151-152k now in the UK alone, so I believe we are now cowntdowning to silver certification... :) Jay please advice.
March 23, 20196 yr So happy with how well this has done for the lads Yet my friend thinks this is not good enough. I try to explain bit he just doesn’t want to see my way :D
March 23, 20196 yr Tracking this thread from first post up to now and as I had long discussion with my dear friend and one of the user here (Zeze) I want to say my opinion about Hello My Love and the right approach towards releasing next singles. I will transcribe my chats with Zeze right here and sorry for the length of my post and want to know your feedback: "It is very good that they have a good chart run but it is in wrong end of top 40 for acts that come back after 8 years. Three weeks in top 10, 5 weeks in top 20 and two weeks or more in top 30 would have been very good but peaking at no.13 and celebrating being in between no.19 to 35 is not success for me. I told you I didn't like the song after first listen because I set the bar so high after 8 years. Then I told you the song has grown on me but after 4 days I could not stand the song again and you can't believe but after first week of release I listened to whole song just 2 or 3 times untill today. I certainly not kidding you because for me the song lacks DEPTH. You told me it is catchy, yes, it is but I can name you more catchier songs than this one from their first album up to last. Change Your Mind, wasn't that catchy? I think it was way better than Hello My Love so what the hell to recruit Ed and Steve? They're two great jewels in this market and can produce instant hit. For me Hello my Love is by no mean a hit, it is just mediocre, that's my humble opinion. Their labels' strategy was wrong and sucked. What the hell in rushing releasing the song? It cost them dearly and 5.1k copies from overjoyed Westlife's fans counted towards first week which was mere 15 hours. So is it great to be no.2 in Scotland or no.101 in UK? Those copies would make them no.8 if the song released on Friday. What's the point to be no.1 in itunes chart in 15 countries and then falling back to earth three days later? Is it achievement or what? They were no.1 in UK untill Saturday night (streaming included). So what the hell was releasing the song on Thursday? I told you before and will tell you forever, If they were 1D or Little Mix or whatever act with three or four UK no.1 it was okay just to show up and have top 20 hit but when you have 14 UK no.1 and there are two legends of this game in Elvis and The Beatles above you, every single is important. Coupled it with comeback single after eight years in hiatus and there would be insane to not arranging two or three top, top performance from Friday onward in huge shows in itv or BBC. Was it that tough? GN was very good cuz there are so many people watching this show but only one promotion? So what the hell to releasing single? Just Releasing single for the sake of it is not STATE OF THE ART. Then came National TV awards, that was more than good but 3 weeks after releasing single? It just helped the song (as I told you) to remain in top 40 more weeks and ACR implemented three or four weeks later as we are in this phase this week. I mean either don't release a single or do it properly. It was golden, golden opportunity wasted and I'm fearing for their next single. If they perform it on Sunday and then instantly release it on Monday we lose three golden days. Please note that being ballad is not disadvantage and you can see how UK no.1 single keep selling because it is beautiful. All of Me by John Legend kept ruling because it connected to people's heart and soul as Perfect by Ed did. Why Beautiful In White and I'll See You Again have so many views in Youtube without people knowing who the artist is? Because it connects. The only thing that record label done and it was good was releasing two other version of the song and it helped stream-wise. When you're coming back after 8 years and you have two top, top producers and writers you should be above your normal level and not even releasing song that has no quality. I told you million times that the benchmark here is Backstreet Boys. After GH album and Drowning single which was brilliant (but still pure pop) and all the problems with A.J addiction one day (without knowing anything about their comeback) I listened to one US music radio station and it hit me hard. I thought to myself I listened to this act before but still couldn't remember (During A.J, first verse), it was so radical, sooooooooooo radical change in this song and after Nick said Incomplete I understood they are BSB and I was a massive fan. This is a comeback single, this is a comeback album with songs like I Still and I Just Want You To Know (do me a favor my dear Zeljka, if you have time, today or any given day, listen to Never Gone album and after 14 years you can still think it is modern and something not done by any pop band), because they understood pure pop don't working anymore. Simon understood it late but still convinced our lads to recording What About Now and if it wasn't for Cheryl's Fight for This Love (because she was national treasure back then cuz her famous husband, footballer, cheated on her) that would be easily no.1 and everyone compare Hello My Love chart run to WAN. Do you know the reason? Because of that DEPTH I told you earlier. Even today I can listen to What About Know 1000 times a day and still wanting more, this is depth, this is what you're see in Lana's work (remember Adele once told how I feel like I want to fly every time I hear Salvatore) and there are many songs in Lana catalog with that depth. You should have vision, see something that others can't see. You saw it in the work of BSB's brilliant comeback album, Take That's brilliant comeback single, Patience and The Flood, and Westlife's What About Now. They were called cover band, didn't they? But the reaction from people was insane because WAN was brilliant and connected to people because it was so unorthodox by Westlife's standard. That's my point. Being catchy doesn't make song special and Westlife have way better and catchier tunes in their repertoire." Edited March 23, 20196 yr by Navid
