It seems the big push to break the UK's biggest current boyband in America, isn't really paying dividends. Their song "Everybody In Love" has been recieving heavy rotation on American radio for the last few months, and has been supported by the biggest radio network in America. Despite this, the song did not do well on i-tunes, and it now has a negative bullet on airplay (which in American radio-speak, means that the Yanks have pretty much given up on the song). I think the song is currentl 400 and something on US i-tunes.
I wonder if Gordon Smart from The Sun is going to keep peddling his usual bollocks about JLS being on the "verge" of conquering America, as if they were the Beatles or something. Smart is seriously on the JLS payroll or something. To be fair, they seem to be such a big industry in the UK at the minute, that it pays for the media to keep them sweet.
But I remember the days when big UK artists flopping in America would be big news in the tabloids. Robbie Williams was regularly ripped by the press for not doing well in America. Now the press seems to protect acts like JLS from the stigma of being regarded as failures in America. Interesting how things change.
