That was a good interview too! The one with Grape Juice was brilliant as well - they did a bit of Notorious in acapella!

Exactly! I don't doubt the girls when they have said "It's coming out in November", but the lack of precise information like the date for example sets alarm bells ringing that Universal are still yet to decide on a date and could be waiting to measure the success of All Fired Up. The fact that they didn't show the album at the Universal Xmas showcase is also a bit of a worrier. The album should have been made available to pre-order prior to the release of Notorious therefore people who where interested in that would have pre-ordered it, and chances are now they've forgot about the album - if they're casual listeners. They could have also used the pre-orders to measure when they should bring the album out too. The Saturdays have been notoriously ( :lol: ) late (see Wordshaker, 2wks before the release was a joke) when it comes to actually confirming when their LPs are coming out.

Should of's.. could of's.. it's the story of The Saturdays lives :lol:

This will slip to #3 tomorrow in the mids, there was only what 2-3k between them and Maroon 5 today. Dissapointed that the first set of sales we got were incorrect as well :( Missing You was at #6 by the Saturday and All Fired Up for the past 24hrs has been stable at #3, however it could be a misperception as the the lead for #1 is decreasing therefore everything else in the chart on LivePopBars goes up.

Not necesarily. Currently, this is their next single. "Summer anthem" can mean many many things, I'm guessing people are seeing the word 'anthem' and thinking "OMG it's gonna be All Fired Up p2". I'm just going by what people from Universal have said, it's down for 2012 release for "some reason", and it's been down for 2012 for a long time they say. However, it's only now that this LP wasn't showcased at the Universal Christmas showcase that it's starting to make a little more sence. After putting in alot of money into this project I'm sure the label are just being cautious.

Pixie - 100% Maroon 5 - 92% The saturdays - 65% Leona - 53% The sats seem to be stabalising. M5 could be #1 tomorrow!

A super-reliable Universal source said the next single has been written and produced by Lucas Secon, which features Travie McCoy. Put two and two together with the article found above......

We haven't even heard the track yet, it might need it, it might not :lol: The girls have said themselves it's getting no more danceyer as 'All Fired Up' so we can't rule it sounding like a balad just yet, even if that Tanya Lacey has described it as a "summer anthem" hmm.

Which Is why I said "No suprise there..." ^_^

Thanks for the information Lew and Kim! I've started a new thread for the next single so to avoid this being clogged up with 3rd single discussion (and confusion), check out the new thread. :)

All of the acts appearing on Red or Black are all Syco related, apart from Pixie Lott and Jessie J. No suprise there..

01. Pixie Lott (100%) 02. Maroon 5 (76.6%) 03. The Saturdays (71.2%)

Forgot to mention that Turn Myself In might not make the album (according to a fan who spoke to Vanessa), and their next single has been written and produced by Lucas Secon, which we have down as the track which features Travie McCoy. The girls have also said it's not another "dancey" track.

The sales from Ladykiller and I Need A Dollar will be added to All Fired Up in tomorrows update. I Need A Dollar was only available to download as a pre-order only - am I right in saying it could not be downloaded seperately (I think I am) as It was a pre-order bundle? Therefore OCC have messed up somehow by including it in todays update. I'm expecting Ladykiller to be combined with All Fired Up too. It's happened before quite a few times this year, one case that sticks out the most for me was Calvin Harris's b-side to Bounce, 'Awooga'. They should get their best first week opening sales with All Fired Up, I'm hoping around 70-80k which will be good for them as they're percieved as this front-loaded act (which they have been, but the sales have been so much stronger compared to other first week sales). I'm not that fussed on this getting to #1, even if for half an hour it did seem like it was going to. A Top 3 with some very healthy sales (ala Ego and Up) will do fine for this. They need the dollar for promotion and PR for their next single and album.

Pixie Lott - All About Tonight: 01, 422, 489, 642 The Saturdays - All Fired Up: 03, 186, 407, 1013 Leona - Collide: 04, 102, 227, 641 Leona doing very well on other versions of Collide! Having dejavu :lol:

02. The Sats (76%) 03. M5 (74%) #3 for The Sats soon.

Ahh maths was never my strongest point :lol: Thanks for the correction!

01. Pixie 100& 02. Sats 78% 03. M5 74% LivePopBars may be doing that thing again where it keeps flicking inbetween different stats like last night.

So iTunes have a tendency to list artists alphabetically? So it's not a human error then.. I think I worked it out correctly. I applied Spiideys theory to it where you divide the previous update by the current update then -100% which should give you the a % of how much it's climbed/fallen.

The label inputs the data into iTunes though surely? iTunes don't do it on the labels behalf.. as far as I'm aware

Her label will have set it like that though. iTunes don't program it in for them.

Which is also applicable to all 3 artists in this battle. All have EPs in the iTunes album chart and have various versions of the tracks floating around in the Top 500 etc. It sounds like they knew they were in the wrong all along and feared that they'd be completely sued or what not in court so resolved it mutually instead. Givng Avicii lead on the track though pretty much confirms there were communiction breakdowns (Leona tweeting that they'd done nothing wrong etc etc etc) which lead to SyCo believing they had the rights to the instrumental or what not. Maybe this was planned all along? It could have well been because if SyCo knew they had a case to fight and believed they were in the right they would have taken it to court - however beacuse they resolved it mutually and gave Aivii lead it makes me wonder whether it was a big publicity stunt. Didn't get them very far though did it (.. so far)!

01. Pixie (100%) 02. The Sats (81.1%) (+1.01 movement) 03. Maroon 5 (75.1%) (+1.00 movement) Movement calculated by Last update / by current update - 100%. I don't think they would have let Avicii take the lead on Leona's single if SyCo were in the right. They were clearly in the wrong which has damaged this singles reputation.
