Album details on first post. New album in August... another single should come out before the album then. Hopefully the album's decent enough.

Depends on how you look at it. There are both positive and negative effect to the song's sales I think. Imagine Cee Lo Green's 'Forget You' didn't have an explicit version, I bet the song wouldn't sell as much as it has, but then without the clean version, it wouldn't have as much exposure on TV and radio, affecting the sales. When talking about age, I think there's a small impact or there's not much difference. Some or many kids/teens and adults/parents don't care that much about expletives anyway, it's about the song primarily.

Sounds good, this could be another UK Top 40 by give it a proper release here later on. It would be great for them... I mean Maarten.

A bit of a grower. I like it at first, but I'll like it a lot more later I think. I'm liking the production, especially for the drums.

Not surprising Top 2. Funny to see 'Show Me Love (America)' at 12th, lower than 'Warzone'. All the singles have been great. They are to be missed (or not, we'll see when they return). I'll still going to listen to their albums weekly!

That James Arthur comparison to the killer whale was really funny to me when I read it some days ago. http://images.sugarscape.com/userfiles/jameskiller123.jpg Source: Sugarscape. I #love this pic so much. ...is it wrong now to look forward to what thing he does next, whether be a rant or something just... silly?

It's Not Dead 16. Heart and Soul (Acoustic) DlpZ8z1bNfk New single is 'Heart And Soul', premiered on Radio 1's Zane Lowe (31st March). It is the 1st single from their upcoming 2nd album, following their first full-length 'Free'. Pretty good returning track.

'Still' is amazing (one of my favourite tracks... probably my favourite track from the album)! I kind of predicted a more upbeat track ('Aaliyah' or something else) first as the follow-up to CFNR but oh well, I would like 'Still' to be a single release sometime anyway.

The title is too similar to 'Safe With Me'. I almost thought the song is going to be released again (as a single this time).

I didn't realise it has been that long that she has done live shows. (obviously not a massive Kate Bush fan for not knowing this)

:cheer: Great choice! Should be another Top 20 track before the release of 'Glorious'. ^_^

It varies for me. Mostly online (music blogs, forums such as this one, YouTube, VEVO, streaming services, etc.), sometimes radio, sometimes from someone.

#2 is kinda surprising for me. Additionally, it's almost a million seller!

I should have mine posted tomorrow.

Yes, please. Na na frickin' niii, yeah. I don't know though if it will happen. They have got their own thing and they can delay or ruin their reunion for wrong/bad reasons.

Looking forward to it!

Yey, though 20 weeks seems too much... I mean, the last run of the cover comp didn't finish... I hope there will be many people playing after many weeks.

Awesome collaboration! Great track! :dance:

Not sure of this at the moment. I'll have a rethink about this later on when it gets released. Edit: Just found out about the edit without Rakim. I would like that.

Can see this reaching the Top 5 (probably around #3). Big tune.

I'm kind of hoping this is better than 'The Evolution Of Man'. Not saying it was a bad album (it's good and interesting but not as good as 'Playing In The Shadows' IMO) but I'm thinking this could be better than TEOM.

Around 40-60k. Probably more, I could underestimate this album.

Airplay is almost always important. It's not for every song but I think it's better to get played and gain some attention from other listeners (maybe that's why some songs are "overplayed" and some are "underplayed"?). Connecting with the audience / future buyers / fans is probably a different thing. With the social media/online, you likely do not need airplay to be successful (e.g. Dapper Laughs 'Proper Moist', M.A.D. 'Toyboy' and 'Fame & TV').
