    Good song :D for a minute I was expecting that to be the official video! :lol:
  3. It is indeed! :dance:
  4. I wonder if this will be the same for the stores in Ireland?
  5. Hi, I wasn't sure where to post this but I've spent a good while calculating the sales difference between our lovable Aloud and those of Sugababes, and it seems that they are very likely to pass SB's by the end of the year and become the nation's most loved girlgroup of the 00's! :P I have used accurate sales and have made my own estimations on what the difference between the two could end up by the end of 2009. Don't take this as gospel as what I have calculated through 2009 is my own guess, but everything else is correct. ----- End of Year Sales; 2008: Girls Aloud - Out Of Control 591,786 Tangled Up 425,000 (+180,500) The Sound Of: Greatest Hits 940,983 (+123,000) Sugababes - Catfights & Spotlights 82,455 Change 494,485 (+121,485) Overloaded: The Singles Collection 633,639 (+140,000) 2007: Girls Aloud - Tangled Up 244,500 The Sound Of: Greatest Hits 817,983 (+153,983) Sugababes - Change - 373,000 Overloaded: The Singles Collection 493,239 (+82,239) 2006: Girls Aloud - The Sound Of: Greatest Hits 664,000 Sugababes - Overloaded: The Singles Collection 411,000 ----- Date calculation: 8th January 2009 Girls Aloud sales (albums/singles): 6,433,000 (Albums: 3,290,027) Sugababes sales (albums/singles): 6,855,566 (Albums: 4,091,710) 6,433,000 - 6,855,566 = 422,566 *Album sales difference: 801,683* ----- 2009 estimates: Girls Aloud - The Sound Of: Greatest Hits +100k (over 1m) The Promise +50k (over 420k) Out Of Control +150k (over 760k) The Loving Kind +80k (over 100k) Comic Relief Single w/ Take That +100k 3rd Single +100k 23rd Single +150k 7th Studio Album +400k 1,130,000 + 6,433,000 = 7,563,000 Sugababes - Overloaded: The Singles Collection +50k (over 680k) Girls +30k (over 190k) Catfights & Spotlights +30k (over 110k) No Can Do +30k (over 50k) 24th Single +150k 8th Studio Album +150k 440,000 + 6,855,566 = 7,295,566 Difference of sales: 7,563,000 (GA) - 7,295,566 (SB) = 267,434 ----- I could be overestimating/underestimating some sales, in particular the forthcoming album's and single's of both acts that will be released towards the end of the year. Neither has the Comic Relief single with Take That been confirmed nor are we sure that we will get a third single from Out Of Control as of yet, but still taking these into account, there still is a chance that GA will surpass SB's in overall sales towards the end of the year. Whatever happens, you know 2009 will be an excellent year for the girls! :D

    I don't understand how Circus is below TLK in iTunes, and yet is higher in the midweeks (by 5 positions!).
