March 31, 200718 yr What day was it released on iTunes? I read in another forum that it wasn't released straight away so Akon and Fergie got some extra sales. yup it was a tuesday and they start counting the digital sales on the day before so it lost crucial sales around 25k i'd say :( this week i don't think BL will get #1 cause Gwen is now a contender she will be on AI :rolleyes: and her digital sales should boost up Akon still looks strong though, i really hope BL continues to sell well to make up for its so so airplay, i'd say the following week it will get to #1 it really needs Beyonce's promo support to help it along
March 31, 200718 yr Ummm... no you're wrong. Sales end on Monday, at which point (on Tuesday) new releases (albums and digital) are released.... so it didn't lose any sales
April 1, 200718 yr Ummm... no you're wrong. Sales end on Monday, at which point (on Tuesday) new releases (albums and digital) are released.... so it didn't lose any sales :huh: maybe i got the days mixed up :wacko: could it be released on the wednesday then? i'm pretty sure it lost a day's worth of sales they were talking about it on the pulse forum thats where i got this info from ;)
April 3, 200718 yr yes you are wrong :lol: i'm always right :wacko: good news about BL, beyonce is finally doing some promo to support the track she appeared on the today show and sang BL, i hope people buy the single on itunes and not the album TLDryLjPDxw
April 4, 200718 yr I hope shakira sings ths song with her at some point, it's only right. ditto, i'd love to see them interacting with each other and especially to see them do the dance break :wub: the performance could be legendery if they do it on a awards show going all out ;)
April 5, 200718 yr nevermind, radio airplay is low they aren't embracing it, i don't know why even when it jumped to #3 on the hot 100 chart, its radio airply didn't rocket up the way avril's track did, beyonce hasn't really supported the track she performed other songs when she appeared on CBS and NBC not BL so maybe sony are using BL to just create hype but are not supporting the track another factor could be over exposure of beyonce she may have reached saturation point in the US with all these songs and videos
April 5, 200718 yr They needed a quick hit becuase the re release was out within a month of the song going to radio. BL is perfect because it would naturally be a download smash practically instantly and get very decent airplay because of the names attatched to it and they got that with BL, #3 is very respectable. It will probably stay pretty consistent now as the airplay begins rise and if Beyoncé performs the song on some big shows it's downloads might increase too.
April 7, 200718 yr thats what i'm thinking it had an initial huge surge but is leveling off i hope it stays steady, they should release another version on itunes like the video mix with the extra dance break or the reggaeton remix with don omar, where is this remix? has anyone heard it yet? i really hope shakira is up for a performance with beyonce in her break from april 8th to may 5th what is she doing during this time? just resting? no promo work like last time?
April 7, 200718 yr Ahem. HDL was c**p yet it's the biggest hit since "Believe". :smoke: and ???? :huh:
April 9, 200718 yr hey hey BL is moving up on airplay its bullet rose: 21 17 BEYONCE Beautiful Liar f/Sha... 3341 2746 595 20.876 also the solo version of BL was performed on TV!! it was shown right at the end of the early show, this exposure is probably why the song boosted a little cTj2owx1h4c i'm not sure about bending over on the floor with a short skirt :o but she did a good job i like the live band sound
