On Your Radar (4th Studio Album Discussion)
I kinda agree. Hopefully in January they'll be out in full force trying to boost the album? Obviously Una won't be able to do much but the other four maybe? It's gonna be a weird year next year really... Una giving birth in March, taking time off until whenever, and Roch said in an interview last week they'll be writing/recording for the 5th album whilst Una's with the baby... not sure what's going to happen next year! Maybe a re-release of this album would be better mid 2012 rather than wheeling a new album out for the end of next year because more than likely that would end up the same way OYR is going?

What's everyones most listened to track? Last Call is mine! Promise Me is my least played.

Pleased it climbed, even if it's one place, but now it's whether it'll stay there, fall or have longevity/consistent sales from now on which is crucial really. EDIT: Down to #13 on iTunes now, Westlife just overtook them.

Uh, Olly is so cringe and annoying hahaha. I hope Rihanna races past him now. :P

Wonderland - Debut Album
Bit of a strange comparison really since they've been released at different times of the year, in different sales periods and there are plenty more releases at the moment so the album charts are constantly all over the place. Not sure why you've said that really because I doubt Wonderland would be managing any better if they'd released their album this month.

I think Nickleback are #6. :) Not sure who's #7.

Maybe a re-release (if things don't change and they don't disband) next year could salvage the era a little? I'm getting a bit ahead of myself here so let's just wait for Sunday. Maybe they get a miracle and it storms up the charts for the rest of the week. :P

On Your Radar (4th Studio Album Discussion)
Yeah, I'm starting to agree now. Seems like the only realistic outcome because they'll never climb back up the chart this week. They won't come back from this, I guess the public have bored of them now. I'd say beginning of 2012/few months after the tour it'll be the end...? Girls Aloud will never get back together full time, Sugababes are over, Parade didn't even chart in the top 100 with their album... so I guess The Sats will be handing the girlband title over to Little Mix... I don't think even putting out a Greatest Hits next year will help. We'll see though but it's not looking good, I can't see this having longevity or good sales further down the line either. I doubt Fascination will want to keep injecting money, time and effort into their campaigns if they're not going to do well to start with so I can't see any future plans ever coming to fruition - like Rochelle saying in an interview last week they're putting out their 5th album next year. :( But we'll see, things could smoothen out a bit but I can't see it sadly. It's sad to see hard work from the girls, management etc all come to nothing. I know it's only Tuesday, but they'll only slide further down the chart as usual. Really thought this album would be their big hit. The girls themselves must be gutted too and wondering if this is it now because their #16 chart position today must be with the frontloaded sales included!? :( They've achieved a fair bit though, and to potentially end their career with an arena tour (if they do decide to call it a day) isn't a bad way to go, and ending with an album that's up there as one of their best too. Glad I got tickets now just in case it is the last chance to see them live! The thought of The Sats no longer being together and releasing music is a horrible one though. Really do think this is the end now if things continue the way they are. :cry: I'm not sure if they can resurrect themselves and claw their way back anymore. It's like they've hit a brick wall since Notorious, and they keep trying to break the wall down but it never does.

Ah right. I know she used to be but didn't know that so just assumed she was still with them. Thanks. :) Who do Fascination even have on their roster at the moment? Just The Sats?
-
On Your Radar (4th Studio Album Discussion)
At least we've got another album and tour out of them. Sophie Ellis Bextor is still with Fascination and she doesn't have major chart success anymore so maybe Fascination might keep the girls on? But then I guess because the girls are more commercial currently I don't know. The fans clearly enjoy their music though, it's just they don't seem to connect with the wider public and I have no idea how they can change that... I don't think the girls will ever be huge in the UK though. Meh, what will be will be. Pretty sad how much this has messed up my mood and day now though! Lol. First Pixie flops, now The Sats look set to follow - who next!

On Your Radar (4th Studio Album Discussion)
I doubt this will have any longevity/consistency in sales either so they're kinda screwed. :mellow:

On Your Radar (4th Studio Album Discussion)
Ah right. :blush: The management seem to think they can sell on name alone and that's evidenced through little promo this month for both the single and album. I know promo will be limited now, but they should be carting them off here, there and everywhere - wherever they can. They don't sell on name alone and that's shown by today's midweek. But yeah, I'm not sure even releasing a Greatest Hits next year would even help them out. Sad to see their hard work for this album not paying off. Pardon the pun but they're not on anyone's radar it seems. :( They're back to square one again. Sad because I had such a good feeling about this era, really thought this was going to be the 'one' and it would finally make them huge, take them up a level in the UK... and us fans would finally have something to celebrate and shout off the rooftops about at last... how wrong I was! :( Wonder what the girls are thinking right now. :( At least we've got the tour I guess.

Moving to the same label as Rihanna? Def Jam isn't she? I don't even think that'd change things, they just can't seem to sell anything anymore. All interest in The Sats has vanished... people just don't seem to be able to take to them or their music outside of the fanbase/casual fans etc. Not sure where they go from here if things don't pick up. Low stock of the album in HMV pretty much everywhere probably won't be helping things either, especially when Rihanna, 1D and Westlife's albums are stacked all around the place.

Will they even get 22k first week like with Chasing Lights and Headlines? Ugh. They'll be lucky to beat Wordshaker's first week of 15k because Pixie got to #18 with 18k, and The Sats will most likely tail off even more come Sunday.

Sunday Chart Predictions
The Sats are finished to be honest now, aren't they? :( I don't think even a Greatest Hits would save them.

On Your Radar (4th Studio Album Discussion)
#16 in today's album midweek....... :( Shit... I can't believe it. Really, really sad. Lol. :( I didn't think we had much of a chance for top 10, I thought top 15 at least but #16 and probably going to fall even more? This is gonna do even worse than Wordshaker. What the. Gah, it's sad how much I've taken this to heart haha. So gutted for them. I can picture Mollie's massive smile before she gets told the midweek and then her reaction. :( I'm a big fan of The Sats but there's no way they'll recover from this now imo, they're over as much as it pains me to admit it, especially if this falls even more which it most likely will. :cry:

So they're #16 today in the album midweek? If they are then yes, that's bloody awful. :o :(
-
Sunday Chart Predictions
Um, what? After one day of release you can tell already? Pixie was #14 in the first midweek I think, so no, not really.

Saturdays iTunes Watch
OYR was #11 on iTunes, back down to #12 now.

Sunday Chart Predictions
Like to think The Saturdays can potentially get a top 10 with On Your Radar, it's a great pop album - I'm surprised with how good it is, and is fully deserving of a spot in the top 10 but it probably won't. :(
