Imagine that Emma left her fingerprints on the albem and maybe even skin cells :heart:

Knowing Emma she is more likely to spill wine on it 🙈

But just think your copy could be bashed by Emma herself

 

That is a lot of albums to sign, this hopefully is a great sign of lots of pre-orders.

 

I do find it quite funny (well, I guess 'galling' would be a more accurate word) that you're championing Emma for the same things you tirelessly lambasted Kylie for last year. Why exactly? :blink:

50 test pressings I'm sure they will count if purchased from a UK address.

 

If you have more money than sense Amazon has a signed regular CD for sale now as an exclusive.

 

So now that is -

 

Regular cd

Regular cd signed (Amazon)

Deluxe cd

Blue cassette (Online store)

Pink cassette (Online store)

Pink vinyl signed (Online store)

First press vinyl (Online store)

 

It is a bit of a piss take so many editions, if she doesn't get top 3 then she might as well give up music.

 

I'm fully expecting a baby blue vinyl once the pink has sold out.

 

Just for the poster above to show I'm consistent in my views of multiple formats are to rip off fans.

Lies, I know you'll be ordering My Happy Place - Collector's Edition cassette later this year :cool:

I've refused to order the vinyl (the 1 format I really wanted) as that is a rip off essentially doubling the price cus it is signed.

 

You know I'm not one to throw anyone a bone if they haven't warranted it.

I'm pretty sure you 'throw' bones all the time :lol: :P

Signed edition of My Happy Place is back up to #5 on Amazon's best sellers list! I think it had dipped to around #13/#14 earlier in the day, so her signing videos actually appear to have helped. Woo!

And now it’s #4 on Amazon!

 

I think the forthcoming BTS album is likely to outdo Emma (even though their previous ones didn’t do spectacularly), but otherwise I don’t think she has much competition?

 

All Tvvins - Just To Exit

Anderson .Paak - Ventura

Andy Bell – Torsten In Queerteria

Andy Black - The Ghost of Ohio

Band Of Skulls - Love Is All You Love

Bruce Hornsby - Absolute Zero

BTS - Map Of The Soul: Persona

The Chemical Brothers - No Geography

Damien Jurado - In The Shape Of A Storm

Eli “Paperboy” Reed - 99c Dreams

Emma Bunton - My Happy Place

The Flaming Lips - King's Mouth

Fontaines D.C. - Dogrel

Glen Hansard - This Wild Willing

Jessie Buckley – Wild Rose (OST)

The Leisure Society - Arrivals & Departures

LSD - Labrinth, Sia & Diplo Present... LSD

Norah Jones - Begin Again

Sun Kil Moon - I Also Want To Die In New Orleans

Tom Speight – Collide

Walking On Cars - Colours

NOW 2

NOW 102

 

~~~

 

Also it seems like we’ll be hearing You’re All I Need to Get By soon, its run time is now showing on iTunes (2:47).

Funny Snorah Jones is releasing on that date considering Emma is covering her hit.

 

No idea how she'll do though, but it wouldn't surprise me if she charted well.

BTS are quite the force - and rightly so, their songs are great pop band music.

 

Norah Jones - dont think she has been much competition for a while now, but then again, neither is Emma :blink: The Flaming Lips and The Chemical Brothers might prove a bit of a stumbling block for her though.

 

And those Now cds are so annoying...

I think the Chemical Brothers are probably also competition.

I overlooked them on the list! :cry:

 

Another funny thing re: Norah Jones is that she released her second album ‘Feels Like Home’ in the same week as Emma’s Free Me album.

Emma will be lucky to chart in the top 10, I predict a similar pattern to Claire Richards album released a few months back...

Emma’s gone to town with her formats in a way that Claire didn’t though; I’d be amazed if Emma only scraped 5,000ish sales (that is generally all that is required to make the Top 10).

 

Gabrielle (also signed to BMG) managed almost 7,000 sales of her album last year:

 

6,773 (to reach #7)

4,656 physicals

1,829 downloads

288 streaming

 

...and she only had a CD and vinyl physical formats!

I think Emma will do better on streaming than Gabrielle too, Robbie and Will Young fans will surely give those songs a spin. The album is short so a quick play through should help streams from casuals.

Gabrielle’s album is so good !!!

I hope for a top 5 but i don't think that will reach the top 10.

 

Sorry this is the wrong topic :(

If any of you were thinking about getting the album on vinyl but haven't yet, there's currently only 37 left out of the 1000 limited run, so don't miss out! :cool:

I am praying for a Top10 but she needs to be better on the streaming side of things fo rthat to be a possibility and/or for her to mantain any level of initial success. That's what matters in the long run...

 

I don't know how other than by getting good radio play and her profile raised by going on every single f***ing show out there and start gigging, which wont happen unfortunately.
