Posted March 14, 200718 yr So how ya'll think it will do? Think it will be more successful than Read My Lips? (it peaked at number 2 and sold around 800,000 copies) Think it will be less successful than Shoot From The Hip? (peaked at 19 and sold around 70,000) I'm hoping for top 10 at least, maybe top 5.. depends how much hype there is I guess. Btw, I got those figures from Wikipedia, so I'm not sure how accurate they are. Edited April 19, 200718 yr by KieranJ
March 15, 200718 yr Read My Lips unfortunately didn't sell anywhere near that, about 800,000 in the UK, Shoot From The Hip 60,000. :( It all rides on how 'Me And My Imagination' does now, I can't see it doing wonders and if it doesn't, the album is doomed. So I'm not hopeful. :(
March 15, 200718 yr I think how well the album does will depend on the success of the next single, Me & My Imagination. I cant see the single doing much better than "catch you", which was a great comeback song and has only done mediorce in the charts. With regards to the album, I've heard about seven of her new tracks and its sounding great. The songs are much better than the material from her last album and I think its her best stuff to date. However, nonetheless I really dont think her album will do great. I predict a top20 first week position followed by it falling out of the charts quite quickly. I hope my predictions are wrong.
March 15, 200718 yr IMO with promotion MAMI (great abbreviation lol) has top 5 potential and probably will go at least top 10, but I just hope the label havent lost faith after Catch You. As long as there is promo, the album will go top 10 and Gold :)
March 21, 200718 yr Author I think MAMI is one of her best songs actually, I think it will do better than Catch You. Fingers crossed anyway :( I hope she tours too, she did tour with SFTH so she should with this album
March 25, 200718 yr I think MAMI is one of her best songs actually, I think it will do better than Catch You. Fingers crossed anyway :( I hope she tours too, she did tour with SFTH so she should with this album She did? :o In an interview I read with her once she said she didn't get to tour SFTH. :unsure:
March 25, 200718 yr Is it because it flopped she didnt do it ? I think she had to stop promoting the album after 'I Won't Change You's release, because she was heavily pregnant by that point.
March 25, 200718 yr Author Hmmm, well I don't know then but I bought SFTH about a month ago and a postcard came with it inside the case and it had tour dates on.
March 30, 200718 yr Author She's #14 on HMV pre-release chart.. and it's not gonna be released for around 6 weeks!
March 30, 200718 yr This doesnt usually mean an awful lot but of course its better than nothing...if the rumours of 10k pre-sales are true, this should do really well!
April 19, 200718 yr Author Updated the original post with more realistic figures. Also, she's risen to #10 on the HMV presale chart :D
May 15, 200718 yr Author UPDATE: She's now #5 on HMV pre-release chart and MAMI is their #3 download! :D
