BETTER GO TOP 5 at LEAST! :angry:
February 5, 200916 yr Omgz, this is so perfect and I don't see it flopping at all. xD Such an amaze song and defo one of teh highlights of d'album - a combination of alternative indieness, power pop should make this huge unlike CTS which was kinda one sided. . Plus++ the release date is in the middle of the UK tour which is major promo sooo optimistically I predict top 10? Or mayybe top 20 @least. People who haven't got the album yet, will be so blown away by this </3
February 5, 200916 yr i think it will do well and im hoping it will give the album a good sales boost also
February 6, 200916 yr Loving this. Much better than Crack the shutters. Definently deserves to be a HIT Edited February 6, 200916 yr by Rock N Rolla
February 14, 200916 yr Author Where is it? :( Usually Snow Patrol are in iTunes, within a few days of people realising there's a new song out :( It really does deserve to be a hit! Well with 'Spaceman' for the Killers, looking set on not entering the Top 40 and 'Crack The Shutters' missing out... I'm not sure whether I'll be surprised if this misses out :drama:
February 14, 200916 yr Not really I think it'll probably be about in a week or so from now or before the physical. Looks like there's a strategy out for this to redeem CTS and it coming on iTunes too early wouldn't help. .also their UK tour dates etc could influence how they want to release it. But I highly doubt this'll flop. It's too AMAZING.

February 21, 200916 yr As previously reported the band's third single to be taken off 'A Hundred Million Suns' will be 'If There's A Rocket Tie Me To It'. The single will be available as a download and on 7'' Vinyl, which will feature an exclusive new B-side 'In A Dream I Saw Satellites (Garbageband Mix)'.

March 1, 200916 yr Author Oh dear :( It's not looking too hopeful is it? :snif: I've seen it on the TV about 2ice and that was 2 week ago :mellow:
March 2, 200916 yr its a great song but im not sure how it will sell plus there is no cd release its just a 7inch vinyl and download release,i really hope it does well and likwwise i hop eit boosts album sales as i must admit i really expected the album to sell better even though it has sold over 600,000 i was sure it would sell a million copies with ease
March 12, 200916 yr looks like another bad chart placing for them as the single is not top 40 in the midweeks
May 4, 201015 yr Author How did this flop? :( I really don't understand. It's a beautiful song and by far the highlight on AHMS :cry:
May 4, 201015 yr Ya i agree it didnt deserve to flop but overall the hundred million suns era didnt go aswell as we would have liked, none of the singles did really well although to be fair i think the album isnt far off selling 600,000.
