Might help it leaving it until closer to the summer, actually. Fingers crossed its next. That's the Truth keeps bouncing up and down between about #189 to #240 which is good. Once the promotion kicks in I'm hoping for a good run. Think its gathering a similar audience to Shine a Light, actually. Different though with it being on the album and therefore already hanging around on Itunes.

6th March, so a while yet!

185. That's the Truth - McFly ^_^

I think once That's the Truth makes it to the top 40, Above the Noise's sales will rise towards the top 40 too. I hope so anyway. I caught That's the Truth at #208 at one point yesterday. Fingers crossed it'll go top 200 soon and then keep on rising. I'm not sure if Above the Noise will ever capture the audience enough to be a hit, though. To be honest, it is quite a mix anyway. Even That's the Truth is a little different to the last 2 singles but still has that commercial sound to it which helps. I don't think the new fans buying Shine a Light etc. will enjoy tracks such as 'The End of the World' quite so much. I'd rather they try and release as many tracks as possible from the album, and then by looking at the success (acknowledging how Shine a Light did better than Party Girl for example, which I'm sure That's the Truth will do too) they should select a more defined sound for themselves. Of course they should still experiment, and always aim to do better, but now they have 'Super City' and have had considerable success on the charts compared to recent years, I think they have the best opportunity yet to get things completely right next time. Not to say Above the Noise is bad. There are some fantastic tracks for the guys, and That's the Truth is definitely one of them. Its just to much of a mix and I think it seems just a little too easy to pick the best 4 songs to release. That's different to their last 4 albums which always had me confident that any track would do (except the odd one or two!), if that makes sense. The sound was definitely more defined. Ok, so Room of the Third floor was a little like Above the Noise in terms of album tracks/ singles being easy to pick out, but it was their first one. Haven't felt so confident about the guys since Wonderland though, seriously. Great days ahead, I think.

McFly up to 231 with That's the Truth. Obviously not lots, but its edging its way up to the top 200. Still more than a month away from its proper release.

A friend of mine has been complaining that the song has been following her. Apparently its always on the music channels and radio already. Hope that is true, and that it gets A Listed on Radio 1.

I don't like her either.

Interesting, I guess we will have to wait and see. Would be lovely. Hope so!

They've actually performed for the Cube? They don't usually have bands playing do they?! Do you know who else is on with Tom? Seeing as he went on the cube for Comic Relief, I'm sure the charity and the band are just as friendly with each other as ever and no doubt McFly should perform if they're not busy abroad!

Yep, it was a little higher earlier too. Once they perform it on a show (Comedy Rocks?) it should rise further, and hopefully once it hits the top 40 it'll start rising quickly. This could happen before the 6th depending on promotion!

Enjoying looking at the tweets here: http://twitter.com/#!/search/mcfly%20song Some great comments from random people listening to the track for the first time.

279. That's the Truth - McFly On its way up. Wonder where it'll peak before the proper release?

I just caught the track on 4music and it sounds a lot better on the TV that it does with my laptops rubbish speakers. I'm more confident about the track doing well now, fingers crossed. I said top 5 before though, but thinking about it I reckon it could go to about 7/8 but stick around in the top 20 for a while. We'll see, I guess.

Airplay, definitely! I think it will benefit from a better perspective of the band from the public after ' Shine a Light'. Still think the verses are dull though.

They've made mistakes before, but they know the interest in Nowhere Left to Run from their fans, & recieved good feedback for a performance on Alan Carr's Chatty Man. I just hope that this time they will release the best track on the album, after all the good tracks they've left behind before. But That's the Truth only just won the fan vote above it, which is why it has been released. It is closer to their traditional style, so I can sort of see why that was the case. Nowhere Left to Run is more risky, but certain for success in my opinion (if given the chance!).

Think/ hope they're leaving it until last.

To insert a video select 'youtube' from the 'insert special item' drop down menu, then paste jZHJYc4vqyk into the box. Top 5!

Nothing for Who this year for me - usually a huge fan and wouldn't want anything else to win, but Sherlock was awesome and its Philip Glenister's last chance for his award. If he doesn't win it, Benedict Cumberbatch should definitely snatch it. Fingers crossed.

Think: Tinie Tempah Want: Plan B

Yeah, got a bad feeling my bad dancing may let me never forget that...

Thanks for this - but no way will I be awake then!

Well, of course they played a lot of the tracks already on their mini tour. I already think Nowhere Left to Run is awesome live for a start. Just haven't heard That's the Truth (and a few others!). All should be greater with the atmosphere and sound of an arena, though, of couse. Hope you enjoy yourself!

Yep, I'm off to Manchester. How about you? Talking of which, I know we've heard accoustics but I can't wait for the live version of this.

top 10 and some longevity would be nice enough.

It seems very out of place, doesn't it?! Especially as we're so used to hearing the track without it.
