I don't know what is going on with this song - its amazing! hasn't even broken top 40 yet :S

 

y's she on loose women the week after the physical is released? stupid idea!!!!

I can't believe that it's not doing as good as it was planned to. 19/Sony really dropped the ball on this one!

To be honest, no-one could've guaranteed this underperform. It's catchy and really radio-friendly, and has a good video. I'm guessing it'll pick up some speed. It's 100 times better than MLWSWY!

Yep i think the email reminding everyone that its out on June 1st helped.

Also hopefully the promo will make it jump up into the top 10. Although the fact that its stayed around the 40s for so long must be a bad sign :(

I have a feeling she will flop with this single. Its not getting enough radio play and unlike the Australia CD single which includes fantasic remixes of her last single, the Uk comes with just the instrumental.

As soon as you hear the opening line - "Oh sweetheart put the bottle down, you've got too much talent" - it's easy to imagine Katy Perry singing this song. No surprises there. Like 'Long Shot', another track from Kelly Clarkson's current disc, 'I Do Not Hook Up' first appeared on a never released album Perry recorded in the mid-noughties.

 

But despite its less than auspicious beginnings, this is actually a bit of a corker - a giddy power-pop nugget with a Haribo buzz of a chorus. As for Clarkson, well, she tears into the anti-one night stand lyrics with gusto, and, without wanting to resort to cliché, Really Makes The Song Her Own. Well, what else would you expect from a singer who rose to fame on American Idol?

****

She was STUNNING on Rove tonight.

 

Flawless performance of I Do Not Hook Up and a really funny interview. She went majorly up in my eyes tonight.

 

She's on Good News Week tomorrow night with the latest Aussie Idol :heehee: [GNW is kinda like Never Mind The Buzzcocks]

45 Brasil [76-59-52-45-]

Airplay is screwing this up, for some reason only #38 this week. I don't understand why UK radio stations aren't playing it.

Is Airplay REALLY that low?! :mellow: 9 times out of 10 that I turn the radio on, this song is ALWAYS playing :mellow:

 

(Do local stations have their airplay counted?? :unsure:)

 

OMG! I really don't know what's gone wrong with this single?! :drama: Honestly! HOPEFULLY promo will help it go Top 20 at the VERY least!

Can't believe its only #40 in the midweeks! I really hope Already Gone does better!!
