Aha, I see. I think that TT hits are inevitable, and also that a tour with a few guest appearances from the other lads would give it something special. However, I suspect he won't end up doing much/anything with TT because he's got two albums to be promoting (new GH and RKTVS) and touring hit 'old hits' hardly makes him seem very relevent and could hurt sales for RKTVS. Whatever happens, yay for tour and album! :P But I don't think I want Robbie joining TT again - maybe for a few shows, but nothing more than that.

!! Ooh, fantastic! :D I really hope that there are some new tracks - weren't Radio and Misunderstood from his last GH? Also, how do you know he's touring RKTVS? Didn't see that anywhere in the article. :yahoo:

MS is the 'record of the week' on Radio Two this week :) http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/music/playlist/index.shtml#rotw And next week it is moving onto their A-list, great news when combined with radio one's C-list. :)

On his birthday? :huh: Happy freaking birthday Robbie!! :blush: From what I've seen of that show, they'll get him on, detract from his performance with a load of silly dancers, then get him off again without even interviewing him. It did not look like good promo in my eyes. However, presumably the management agreed on the performance before the show came onto our screens and, as it has had modest success in the USA, presumed that it would have Strictly Come Dancing (or Dancing On Ice for that matter) sort of ratings, in particular for the final. XD Or it was just as a deal - Robbie performs on their show and they make the single the Sport Relief single! :rofl:

Yeh, it's fantastic news because otherwise the song could struggle to make top ten. I like it, but it's a song for liking and not loving and I wasn't convinced that the general public would snap it up in the same way that something like Bodies is an instant hit. Now it's probably going to reach top five, and also I presume he'll be performing it on the live telethon, and hopefully people will hear it a lot, like it a lot and buy it a lot. :) Also, yay @ radio 1. C list songs don't get played that much, methinks, but it's the thought that counts! XD

I would say that the SYTYCD will only give a little increase in sales, but I'm hopeful that it being the final will increase the viewing numbers signifcantly and maybe even attract some music fans? Because judging by Alexandra Burke and Lemar's sales following their performances, I would say either they didn't make any impression on the viewers whatsoever, or the audience are not the music-buying public. Either way, I'm just looking forward to seeing him perform. :)

I only own RKTVS and GH... :( not a true fan until I've purchased them all I guess. Looking at the track lists though, I really can't make up my mind.... Maybe Sing When You're Winning? I love Rock DJ, Kids and The Road to Mandalay. ^_^

You guys really don't know what Sports Relief is? :blink: What planet have you been living on? :P It's a branch (or more accurately half) of Comic Relief, a huge charity in the UK which gives money to all sorts of stuff. Every year they have a big telethon which gets loads and loads of viewers and this raises millions of pounds (and a tasty parcel of music sales :P). Last year they raised almost £60,000,000. So it doesn't get boring every year, they alternate the telethon anually - one year it is Red Nose Day and the next it is Sports Relief Day. Sports Relief is usually a smaller thing to Red Nose Day, and in 2008 it raised nearly £20,000,000. ONLY 20 million lawlz. :L The Sport Relief single has always got into the top 5 in the charts so hopefully this will give Rob some great sales and stuff. Good job too, 'cos I can't see Morning Sun doing that well commercially otherwise. Sport Relief is meant to be amusing, though, so I would've expected a more upbeat single.... meh, what are these organisers like eh? We'll have to wait and see how well it does - maybe even another long-deserved number one for Rob? I'm new so I can't post links yet... so go type in sport relief on Wikipedia. There's a section on previous singles ;) :D EDIT: So no, nothing rude. Not that I understand how Sport Relief sounds rude anyway.... unless you're refferring to farting during sports? XD In which case, that's a bit rude and rather amusing :P

RKTVS dropped down to 30 this week, and will probably fall further in the following weeks until the SUPER SPECIAL BRITS PRIZE!! :cheer: A full list of placings, total sales and weekly sales for the UK (where available): PLACE - WEEKLY SALES (TOTAL SALES) 2 - 238,125 4 - 85,724 (323,849) 9 - 55,953 (379,802) 10 - 60,298 (440,108) 11 - 74,138 (514,246) 6 - 111,599 (625,845) 6 - 102,283 (728,129) 11 - 24,971 (753,100) 17 - 11,114 (764,214) 21 - 9,790 (773,914) 26 - ???? (????) 30 - ??? (785,000) Sales have slowed, but with my limited chart knowledge and st00fs, I can see 1 million UK sales in the not too distant future. Probably will take the third single to finally reach it though.

Hello everybody! I'm the new kid on the block. You've probably seen me skulking around a bit lately and Jupiter (Jups?) finally convinced me to come out of my shell and post! :P So I'm Matt, English, 14, a new Robbie fan. I heard Bodies and looked at some of his other music and I'm now a big fan of everything he's ever done. :D So, nice to meet you all!
