Forgotten Gems
Soul Sound is such a smooth, summery jam. :wub: Don't think it was the right single choice, but I can see why they tried to lighten the mood a bit after the darkness of New Year and Run For Cover. I've been listening to Little Lady Love loads lately. Still shocks me that it was only relegated to b-side status!

Yeah, I think you're right about the more recent popularity of Spotify and the presence of the girls. I meant in terms of monthly listeners (well over a million, and growing!), because it definitely shocks me to see songs like Freak at such a low level. Again, I'm sure once they properly come back into the public eye, it can only mean good things for their streaming power.

New Forum League Chart
Exactly! People go wild.

Cancelled single releases
I remember that interview on GMTV! :lol: And then they went with Follow Me Home as the fourth... such a bad decision. It lost its meaning without Mutya being involved, and I think that definitely showed in terms of public interest. I also remember Obsession was apparently lined up as the lead single, right until they came up with Push The Button. Might explain why the remix was (rather randomly) included as part of Red Dress' release.

New Forum League Chart
Sad to see things have been so quiet! None of the girls are particularly prominent in the public eye (and let's not mention the MKS/Sugababes fiasco), so it's difficult to drum up interest I suppose. Here's hoping we get some concrete news before the year ends.

Looks great Silas! No problem. :dance: Nice to see their back catalogue still has life in it. They're quite a force on Spotify, too!

Their Top 10 on Spotify
October 2017 Top 10 Update: 1. 20,555,840 Push The Button 2. 17,131,724 About You Now 3. 11,379,303 Too Lost In You 4. 6,259,783 Overload 5. 6,159,780 Get Sexy 6. 5,507,147 Round Round 7. 5,167,553 Hole In The Head 8. 3,668,804 Ugly 9. 3,140,598 Freak Like Me 10. 1,996,281 About You Now (Radio Edit) Annoying that the AYN radio edit isn't incorporated with the main version. I'd imagine Stronger is just outside the top 10. Just checked Overloaded's streams - of the 14 available tracks (Good To Be Gone is an album only exclusive), 11 are over a million streams. Caught In A Moment isn't too far off (857,951), but it's sad to see Run For Cover is only at 627,094 plays. Elsewhere, About A Girl is doing pretty nicely at over 2 million plays, whilst Wear My Kiss is sitting at 749,267 (thought this would be higher given it's recency).

Cancelled single releases
Interesting piece from the OCC! I'm sure Gotta Be You was also lined up as the third single instead of Red Dress - I remember Mutya confirming this at one point. There's been quite a few poor decisions made when it comes to their singles... Pity!

AFSC \ MKS&Suga Qualifying Round A - One Touch
I'm a bit late too, but had to contribute to such an amazing album. :wub: It's tied between Promises and One Foot In for me, but I think the latter would just about edge in there.

What Sugababes/SoloBabes Song Are You Listening To? v2.0
Completely fell in love with One Touch all over again. Can't believe I never fully appreciated it before. Run For Cover is stunning, as is New Year.

Sugababes ● Sales & Analysis
Seems the UK 59p sale for Push The Button has been removed. Pity - it was doing quite nicely on iTunes, and even made an appearance on Spotify 200 last week. Would be interesting to see its recent sales. Still hanging around Irish iTunes - +17 at #131 atm!

Sugababes ● Sales & Analysis
No problem at all! Thanks for having me. :) Push The Button is up to #151 on UK iTunes today, and #55 in Ireland (Freak also made a brief appearance last night). Too Lost In You is currently at #45 on Gambia's Apple Music. Nothing significant, but nice to see some chart entries going on.

Sugababes ● Sales & Analysis
Hey everyone. :D Just wanted to say how enjoyable it is to see some activity in this sales thread (so much so, I had to register!) Today the OCC have given an update for About You Now's UK sales: Push The Button has been hanging around the UK (#174 atm) and Ireland iTunes Charts this week, too. It's been reduced to 59p - seems to be a push towards that platinum certification! It's also on a throwback playlist on Spotify. Finally... a little solo update. Amelle's Never Leave You is certified silver, so it's on at least 200k, whilst ChartMasters have Mutya's This Is Not Real Love at 100k.
