Don't get the hate for HYD from some on here it was probably one of my favourite singles they have released so far I wasn't madly in love with the album version but I loved the single version the video is one of there best as well (After Move and Salute) it probably would have gone top 10 as well had the management not messed around with release date.
The characteristic that LM's winning singles all share is that they stuck around in the charts forever as more of the public like and buy. So while HYD could have initially peaked higher than it did, its still their lowest selling single so the public doesnt seem to have taken to it.
I really like the single version HYD and I also think it's their 3rd best video. All of the singles from the DNA era sold well. Hopefully Salute will mean the 3 singles from the Salute era also do. It's upto #56 atm which is amazing!
Someone called @harvey is supporting the girls
Also been told he was in that boyband that supported them on there last uk tour
He was on Celeb Big Brother a couple of years ago. He also has a song called 21 seconds to go and i think he was in a band. This could all be wrong, i might be thinking of the wrong person.

Wrong guy. It's this guy, someone unknown https://twitter.com/Harvey can you imagine 21 seconds at a LM concert lol
I don't know why but it always surprises me when Capital playlists one of their songs. I guess after how fickle they were during the DNA era (and rightfully so for CYL) I'm always wary, and happy to see when they support a song.
As we've song, Capital can really make a difference with how a song charts. I don't Little Me would sold as well as it ended selling given its chart position, without Capital's support. I remember hearing it on Capital when I went home for uni break.
If Ella and Little Mix can get BGT performances then I'll be a happy camper. Congrats to Ella too for "Ghost" being playlisted. Both songs are absolute tunes.
I've been wondering who the heck this is all day. Harvey Cantwell. Apparently, he's a 15 year old who did the Justin Bieber YouTube thing and Universal signed him (according to a commenter).
That would explain who's paying to put him on this tour because he seems like another in an endless line of "we hope we strike gold with the next Bieber" guys. Isnt there already some guy named Conor Maynard in the UK who was supposed to be the next JB?
I'm curious/excited for the tour set list.... considering an average set list is about 20 songs, that could mean all of Salute, + bonus tracks with 4 DNA singles, however I think that's being too optimistic to expect all of Salute
So then what Salute songs does everybody think will be cut? And are we assuming Wings, CYL, DNA and Word Up for the singles? Wishful thinking I'd drop CYL and Word Up for two non-single DNA tracks, but it's not gonna happen Very interesting to see how they play this anyways ^_^

Far better than CYL.
CYL is kind of unlistenable for me. I still can't believe it was chosen as a single. It should have been Stereo Soldier or Love Drunk...
This steady climb up is very encouraging.
