#25.... I think it's doing very well considering

 

Does anyone know roughly how much iTunes sales count towards over all sales? Will she be in the top 40 this weekend at this rate?

She's already top 30 in the midweeks, so yeah.

 

 

Ohhh is she! Didn't see that, nice one!

Jordin Sparks: 'Battlefield'

 

When applying cheap fake tan, treating yourself to a rich, creamy dessert or deciding how much cleavage to flash at a funeral, less is probably more. However, the opposite is true when updating the '80s arena rock sound for 2009, as OneRepublic frontman and diva-friendly knob-twiddler (Leona's 'Bleeding Love', Beyoncé's 'Halo') Ryan Tedder has realised.

 

To that end, he lavishes 'Battlefield' with ear-bashing drums, lashings of guitar, piano straight off an old Bonnie Tyler record, chanty backing vocals and, if you listen carefully, an electro effect that sounds a bit like Sonar. To say his production job's bombastic is like calling Lady GaGa a bit of a show off. Fortunately, 'Battlefield' has the killer pop hooks to carry it off and Jordin Sparks is enough of a singer to rise above the rumpus. The result? A strong contender for single of the year.

#16 on UK iTunes! :w00t:

 

Why were people saying here that they should release a new single and push back the album? :blink:

Yeah, she should release the album after the release of Battlefield.

Oh, you mean the physical release of the single. :lol:

 

What day is the album scheduled for release. I think it might get pushed back a week. It did in the US. It was the 14th and now it's the 21st. So you guys might get it on the 22nd? :huh:

atm were are getting it on 13th July that 2 weeks after the physical release of Battlefield.

No, we get music released on a Monday whereas America has it on a Tuesday am I right?

Up to #15. Such an achievement to recieve 5* out of 5*. I don't really value Digital Spy after some ludacris reviews of songs, but this kind of makes me value and respect the 5 out of 5 more...
#14 on UK iTunes and #26 in midweeks. :)

 

25 now apparently! HMV have a CD DVD version of her album too, please say it's true!

What do we think?

I think that looks like it should have been the single art. I dunno, I just think it's better if you can see the artist's full face on the cover and shots like that should be for singles. But that's probably just a personal preference.

I find it a bit odd... apparently it's official... but if I'm correct she hasn't had red in her hair for a good few months, and the album shoot wasn't too long ago.

I must say... to begin with I didn't really feel the video, I thought it looked a bit cheap and the smoke was a bit too fake, but i've just seen it on the telly for the first time then, and it's EPIC! It's SO much better in HQ!

I love the album cover! :heart:

 

And Battlefield is now #11 on UK iTunes, right behind Kiss Me Through The Phone... Does it have a chance of going top 10? :unsure:
