It's fair to say thus far, NB has been a major flop and I really don't think it deserved to be. :(

 

The question is, can things be turned around now or is it too late?

 

I think 'Soulmate' is definitely good enough to do so if it catches on and reaches out to all the right people. This week is doubtlessly NB's final week in the top 75 unless a future single can help it re-enter.

 

I really, really hope this album can be saved, it's a stunning album that deserves so much more but I worry that there is too much backlash against her now.

 

BTW, when should the video to 'Soulmate' surface?

Soulmate has worried me. At the moment I can only see Soulmate doing at best top 25 :( and only helping the album to re-enter the top 50 :(

To be honest I am very worried at the moment because 'Soulmate' is amazing but not much of a summer anthem, is it?

But saleswise it has done much better than other female comebacks like Beverly Knight, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Jamelia and Joss as well I think. So that makes it a bit better if you think of it that way! :lol:

 

But it's still not good enough, I think 'Soulmate' is it's last chance because after that, people wont really care if they don't warm to 'Soulmate'. I think it would go either way...'Soulmate' will either be huge or a major flop! I guess we will just have to wait and see! :(

 

I recieved an email from Natasha's mailing list about the new single but as far as I can see, it had no new update on the video! :(

 

And this was on the e-mail so it looks like it's going to be the cover, I really like it! :D

Nice cover though I'm sensing flop. It just drags on, the song doessn't really go anywhere :(

I think the album will really struggle. Soul mate is a nice song but it lacks the appeal and hook of her earlier songs like unwritten and these words. She needs to release a killer single in order to get more interest in the album again. Unfortunately, I think the new album is a bit weak in terms of single release potentials.

Nope i dont think it can be saved at all now :(

 

Soulmate should push it back into the Top 30 at least.

I am feeling a bit more hopeful now that I have seen a clip of the 'Soulmate' video :D

But I'm hoping it will do better in the US just like Joss Stone's new one did! :D

I think it will reenter the chart and peak about 25ish

Yeah same here, I'm not too bothered as long as it goes at least Platinum...ok maybe that's being a bit too OTT but you never know, I'm sure it will go Gold! :D

Platinum would be amazing but I think gold is more sensible at the moment :lol:

Yes....at the moment. :lol: ;)

Nope :( It will only go gold, it will re-enter for a few weeks and that will be it :cry: Compared to the first album its a tragedy. :cry:

I know...I know, but look at Nelly Furtado she had a huge first album then the second one flopped and the third one is her biggest yet!

 

I'm hoping Natasha can do that! :D

I think she could. It just depends how good it is and what style she goes for :lol:

LOL, Imagine her totally turning hip...no I wouldn't like that! :lol:

As much as I would love her to work with Timbaland, I would like him to produce the same quirky pop songs for her! :D
