HolidayGuy Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Mimi was top 10 airplay just a couple weeks ago- where'd she disappear to?
Guest Johnkm Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Mimi was top 10 airplay just a couple weeks ago- where'd she disappear to? Could she be suffering 'Give It 2 Me Syndrome' where it rushed up the charts and just vanished afterwards?
HolidayGuy Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Yeah, but GI2M hung around the lower end of the chart for several weeks there after plummeting. With Mimi, it's like the week "Bye Bye" shot up to No. 18 and then plummeted down the chart.
Guest Johnkm Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Oh right I though you meant it was gone from the top 10 Hmm, even for Mariah thats a bit crap, 'Ill Be lovin U Long Time' is the only Mariah song i like, even remotely
fak Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 I thought so too. Its not even sold a 1/4 of COADF even though its been out 5 months. ^ I can't believe this tour has done almost nothing for the album's sales. I really thought Hard Candy would go AT LEAST 2x platinum in the UK. At this rate, it will sell on par with American Life.
franxisco66 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 ^ I have said so from the beginning. This album is underperforming at least in the UK. Some people think these are good numbers cause it has been released in April.... but a 1/4 of Confessions is far too little..
Guest Hafo Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Les Midweeks - Sep 16! Singles 01 Kings Of Leon 02 McFly 03 Katy Perry 04 Rihanna 05 Pussycat Dolls Top 10 Gym Class Heroes Madcon Ne'Yo Top 15 Will Young -> wonder if it's only digital. Song is a bit meh, I think. Cliff Richard Top 20 Iglu & Hartly Flobots Steve Mac Top 30 Jennifer Hudson Basshunter MIA Take That - RTW (gonna bet this is because of X Factor). Top 40 Sonny J Stevie Wonder - Superstition Albums 01 Metallica 02 Ne'Yo 03 Queen + Paul Rodgers 04 Glasvegas 05 Streets Top 15 Stevie Wonder The Coral Top 20 Bryn Terfel Nelly Top 30 Avenged Sevenfold David Essex Last Shadow Puppets Top 40 Nickelback Queen - Greatest Hits Gym Cllass Heroes Kings Of Leon - ASH Little Man Tate Out of the Top 40 New Kids on the Block
Queen Bitch Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Will Young -> wonder if it's only digital. Song is a bit meh, I think. It sounds like an album outtake or filler track - the physical is out on 22/9. Cliff Richard They were putting a different spin on it when it only made number 3 by saying he's now had top 10 hits in 6 decades.
aeroco Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 That's a sensible price. X-Crement was £3.99 less than two months after its release - it was cheaper to buy the album than the second single in some places Where was it 3.99 again? Oh yes, in your dreams. Tesco sold X at £4 around May and June. It was £5.99 in loads of places from end Feb/ Brit awards.
Guest Hafo Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Madge update: GI2M is just hanging on inside the top 40, HC is not top 40.
Guest Johnkm Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 02 McFly No matter what happens elsewhere as long as this is true, my week is made
Queen Bitch Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Madge update: GI2M is just hanging on inside the top 40, HC is not top 40. Hardly suprising.
Guest Johnkm Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 It lasted longer than I would have expected, but its hardly a shock, Give It 2 Me, if it hangs in this week, will be gone next week.

Oops, I didn't realise a penny meant so much in the pockets of Kylie fans - and it was bargain bin in Tesco when Wow was released which was February
Guest Johnkm Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Oops, I didn't realise a penny meant so much in the pockets of Kylie fans - and it was bargain bin in Tesco when Wow was released which was February. It was that price from about February on in most places, excpet HMV, which always has everything ridiculously overpriced, in my experience, it seemed quite fair considering it had dropped off the radar considerably by that point.
jonski43 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 I read that Mariah's album has tanked globally and I haven't heard anything from it. As for Kylie, she's not had a decent song for years. I have no problem with her whatsoever so I am not biased. She is just lacking a good crossover hit. As for HC in the UK, I imagine so many people had such a miserable experience at the London show that it's very unlikely that any positive sales will come out of it. Only the people in the GC and GA areas seemed to have a good show and they will have bought the CD. Everyone else either had poor views, poor sound and may not have got on the tube afterwards or a combination of all three. Overall, it was such a monumental balls up by LiveNation that I doubt that many would want to waste anymore money on a CD.

Overall, it was such a monumental balls up by LiveNation that I doubt that many would want to waste anymore money on a CD. Let it go. I think a grand total of about 100 of the 75,000 people there had a miserable experience. 100 BIG CRYBABIES!

jonski43 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 I think the fact that Ticketmaster have posted on their website that they are now officially looking into the matter owing to the number of complaints probably means it was slightly more than 100 cry babies. Secondly, many thousands were stranded in London when the tube closed owing to a late start. I was making the point that a lot of casuals fans will not have had such a great experience and so I doubt they would want to go and purchase the album. But you fucking retard twats seems to miss that point.
Guest boytoyville Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Exactly, every single person i know who went, including one of by best mates, who was in the upper tiers, said it was fine
jonski43 Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 There must have been at least 50,000 people in the tiers and I doubt you have that many friends to have been seated in all areas of the tiers. And as I have said, LiveNation have now admitted there is a problem with SOME of the seating. Get over it, lapdogs. This was one show where there were some technical hitches that have been acknowledged by the organisers and I was saying this may impact people going on to buy the HC album afterwards.
franxisco66 Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Jonski43 I know you had a bad experience and i am sorry for that, but EVERYONE in this forum knows about it already. If you want to keep complaining about the concert do so, but this is the wrong place for it. Go to the S&S section.

debord Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Album is £6 in the new HMV sale, which could get some sales.
