I was thinking #3 :P Really bad at predicting sales though so not gonna estimate that!

If JSG says #1 with 203,000 copies :P

I remember a big buzz at my high school when AFU tour tickets were out. cant remember the same for headlines

Promotion is kicking in on sunday. Apparently shes performing on Sunday Brunch and an acoustic set on capital

I saw that comment!

Haha oh yeah!

I know right! You can't disagree that it wasn't generic but it was a great song! At least one person has faith in this campaign haha

It's usually the major ones like 4music I thought

To me its most likely going number 1

No I meant on iTunes :P its at #18

I swear it hasn't been premiered yet and that's the reason :P

If Kiss the Stars 'Pixie Lott' can (the most generic song of 2012), then im sure this can take it back top 50. No one really believed Disco Love would get to top 5 until its final pre-release week so you never know

Isn't it already top 20?

Pointless in terms of affecting sales but it does show that there is interest in it

Its got another 100,000 in the bag today :)

I don't think many were keen on Sam Bailey

I dont see the difference aha

To be fair, The Vamps new single hasn't been played by TV stations or Radios yet even though Capital are dying to play it. All that's happened is that its had its premiere on TV so it shouldn't be worrying for the sats

ive checked their twitter. Yeah its doing well on minor UK Radios at the moment and has impacted on TV stations like Brazil. I heard it on Kiss FM a few times actually

The song doesn't necessarily need to do well in order to boost sales, it just needs to be a single that will connect with audiences and give them an impression of the album's overall sound. Im pretty sure Gravity and Radioactive (Rita Ora) barely had success yet it helped both albums climb significantly, although they both got decent airplay which im sure this will get too.

If Not Giving Up goes Top 5, most likely, the album could re-peak, so the whole campaign could actually be saved. e.g. Pixie Lott's 'Gravity' allowed her free-falling album to re-peak at number 6 e.g. Ellie Goulding's How long will I Love You allowed her album to go back to number one. So i wouldn't be worried. They're probably only selling 100/110 copies a week if including physical sales

I think it's because each bbc radio are meant for a different age target so it's more organised todifferentiate each bbc radio network

It'll get top 100 during its final week til release most likely. Unless they do some pre promoting, they won't be climbing back in any time soon :(

Well that's good, plays already before the premiere?

It hasn't been premiered yet. All the examples you gave had a special premiere slot. Not giving up is yet to have one
