yeah, but they've put on France, Italy and Spain and she has performances/appearances lined up there too

Any ideas why the German one hasn't been added yet? Seems strange she's on almost all other european iTunes but not Germany?

#4 in italy now and not too far from #3 and #2 who are neck and neck in the popbars. #1 is waaaaay out in front though. #14 in Netherlands now too, #94 in Aus and up to #143 in Belgium (FFTL)

nothing is confirmed, but the press say has some appearances lined up in europe. dld in munich some german tv show german x factor (although I think they mean the german version if popstars, rather than the actual german x factor) nrj awards

People can barely understand Cheryl, they'd be lost if Nadine was on The X Factor! Unless her management have something big planned, I don't see how Nadine could possibly outsell Cheryl's single even if it's 10,000% better. Only an X Factor performance would give her a chance. I could, however, see her outselling Cheryl's first week albums sales, but it would all depend on hype and promotion

Let's try this again! 3 words (the single) 8 [11] Italia 101 [101] Australia 313 [242] Belgium *** [***] Sweden Fight for this love 20 [21] Netherlands 39 [36] Denmark 38 [36] France 56 [70] Norway 134 [184] Switzerland 163 [188] Belgium *** [957] Greece *** [***] Germany (fake version at 243)

She's #8 now!

Wow, amazing! Has she officially charted anywhere yet? How do any of these international markets work? Will #10 on iTunes be around a #10 in the charts, or are downloads less used there?

Well if they don't get back together, they've ended on quite a high. Big tour, best selling studio album, brit award, etc. all in their last year. I think (or rather hope) they'll do another studio album, hopefully released later this year. And then release a greatest hits album for a farewell summer tour in 2011 before going off on their different paths. Cheryl and Kimberley want kids too much for them to go on any longer.

I think it was always going to, brilliant bit of catchy R and B pop with plenty of hype. People say she only sold well because of The X Factor but GA performed both CTS and TP on the show yet neither sold as well as this has. 292,000 first week sales vs. 80k for The Promise, well over a 3x difference

100k is no where near enough for a single though. Most singles loose money, they only work if they promote the album well or if they become huge sellers (500,000+ copies probably), none of The Sats singles this era have done this. 100k, most of which are downloads at 99p, would probably only make around £150k. From that you have to pay for the video (the dancers, directors, studio time, hair, make up etc.), artwork, distribution and manufacturing costs of the physical cd and any live performances (hair, make up, transport, etc.)

nomination results http://www.bigbrother.tellymix.co.uk/2010/...on-results.html

Who voted #1? :lol:

Here are the nominations: - Who Are You (The Who 1988) - I Owe You Nothing (Bros 1989) - Go West (Pet Shop Boys 1994) - Earth Song (Michael Jackson 1996) - Who Do You Think You Are (Spice Girls 1997) - Stayin Alive/How Deep Is Your Love (Bee Gees 1997) - The Full Montey Melody (Robbie Williams and Tom Jones 1998) - Angel (Eurythmics 1999) - Can't Get You Out Of My Head (Kylie Minogue 2002) - Take Your Mama (Scissor Sisters 2005) - Gold Digger (Kanye West 2006) - Live and Let Die (Paul McCartney 2008) - The Promise (Girls Aloud 2009) Voting opens Jan 18th-Feb 5th

No, it's for the live performance thing. There's no best live act award this year, there's a brit for the "most memorable performance at the brits", GA are nominated for their performance of The Promise from last year. It's voted for by the public, too, so they stand a good chance (but I don't think they'll win, Michael Jackson is nominated...)

more here about Euro promo: http://www.xfactor.tellymix.co.uk/2010/01/...tor-return.html I don't see it stopping GA getting back together though, Nadine hasn't even released her album here yet and won't do for at least 2 or so months. Cheryl's just "passing the time" really. She and the other girls can't get back until Nadine's finished

It's on the front cover of the Sunday Sun today... http://www.imagebam.com/image/3cf32063124127 http://www.imagebam.com/image/39bff063124130

I think the only reason this campaign exists is a) there's not been any GA music or news for nearly a year now and their fans are bored and B) Untouchable was a great song and considered one of their best by their fans. If it was something like Long Hot Summer that missed the top 10 I doubt there'd be any campaign cause that was a weak single

would love it to go top 10. but voted fail. although even seeing it in the top 40 again would be nice

Pity it's all AFTER the week of the release! I think it may fall out. Currently they're #11 combined on iTunes with Alex and Justin both ahead and moving away. The snow and cold whether will not help their physicals tomorrow, but fingers crossed they'll stay in!

Worried Justin and Alex will push The sats out of the top 10 come Sunday, evening taking the single mix into account both are still ahead of them

#702, #220 - Untouchable - Girls Aloud :unsure:

yes, FFTL out Feb 19th and 3 words out on March 5th. She's performing at DLD, GaGa performed there last year. She's also performing at some award ceremony in France too
