Ok this is getting quite tempting now :unsure: I'd rather not support it on One Touch week though :lol:

 

I understand your dilemma! :lol: I'm just telling myself it'll be good for the brand to have two charting albums at the same time, regardless of which charts higher (please be One Touch).

 

Today's Amazon update:

 

#139 in CDs & Vinyl

#20 in Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl)

#64 in Pop

 

For such a low key release with absolutely no acknowledgement from the band/Universal, this is doing pretty decently.

Fan power!!!

 

They’re defo a big enough name to warrant this. Hopefully a chart position without any promo or acknowledgment will be a helpful piece in the puzzle for new music as it demonstrates the brand power

That is true! 2 albums in one week, who'd have ever predicted this.

Exactly! If this means they go on tour/get to release new music, then I'm all for it (horrendous 3.0 cover and all :lol:).

We’re being spoiled! We waited long enough :lol:

It's a relief they didn't use a 4.0 cover, imagine :lol:

I would have to make my own to replace it in that case :lol:

You know what? You're so right. :lol: My expectations when it comes to higher management and Sugababes are extremely low, but I need to give them credit on this occasion. As history has shown, it could have been much worse.

Could've been something similar to the Freedom artwork :lol:

In that case I'd have hesitantly ordered a copy... and then immediately smashed it up before carefully placing it in the bin, where it belongs. :rolleyes: :lol:

 

:lol:

 

 

Oh god I’d forgotten how shit that artwork is

Did we actually think it would do anything at the time :lol: I can't remember, there was no buzz behind it that's all I can recall.

It’s probably in this forum somewhere, i rescued everything I could find going back the the very start of the AF

Those sales sound pretty low in comparison of what you hear these days. I mean, I don't expect the Sugababes to outsell Gaga or Britney but I am being completely delusional to hope at least for 200k-300k for the first single?

The track is "unlike anything the 'Babes have done before and has Jamaican/Reggae influences, samba beats and an awesme hook".

 

And that's only from the first page!

 

 

But at least Quarantilas called it an "utter f***ing tune!!!"

 

Ahem:

Sounds AMAZING, I'm so excited now its unbelievable :lol:

 

Ahaahaha:

Big battle for releases on September 4th: Pixie 'All About Tonight', Leona 'Collide' and Sugababes 'Freedom'! I feel there may be some release date changes :D

I liked Freedom :lol: back then I would stan anything that involved Heidi.

 

Cringing though :lol: don't think I can read anymore.

I have since had my ears cleaned.

 

 

 

To be fair. It wasn’t awful back then, but it wasn’t a Sugababes track and it’s aged horridly because it was so of the moment

200K-300K for the first single :lol: :lol: I can't.

They had a fair few TV performances of it at the time I'm sure :lol: nothing major though. I bet it would've charted like 30-35.

It was getting zero radio play so I’m not sure it have even got that far

The interest just literally died didn't it :lol: they probably did the right thing cancelling the single release.
