Figure 8 was 13th December over 6 weeks ago no video play and the little radio play she had has ceased. Get explosions to radio ASAP and film a video in the next month or so as its #30 on iTunes she has to do it or miss it all together it's just that simple.

Explosions is a new entry at #33 on the top 40 so a release will have to hurry up

It's equalled Figure 8 with no promo or official release whether she wants to or not she should All i have heard mentions is a tweet in which she said ''explosions which i have not rleasesd creeping into the chart nice surprise'' so read from that what you will

And glad Halcyon has jumped back up the charts and Explosions is doing well

And its funny isn't it its what happened to YS, Lights was meant to be the lead off the Re-Release Bright Lights but due to demand Ys was pushed forward so hopefully public demand will force her hand

And Explosions #17 so holding for now and Halcyon #9 great to ahve it in the top 10 again

Alos been checking her Twiitter feed and she ahs started mentioning the price and promoting it somewhat on there and people have started asking for a video but she is on tour so guess we shall see. But as well no official third single announcement yet either so what is going on ?

At last Explosions is to be the third official release off Halcyon and here is the video http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...deo-watch.html Whether we will have a proper one after she finishes touring who knows but yay its a single

Ah thank God! She was wise, she couldn't ignore the song's recent popularity. It's a nice little video and I think the music channels will show it as they do like simplistic performance type videos

I know its fallen though to 22, Halcyon staying strong at 11 But now as you said with a video and official announcement hopefully Radio and Music Channels will play it she was indeed wise and with it still being 59p here's hoping for atop 10

Midweeks get released in a couple of hours so it will be interesting to see how she's doing, I should be in the top 25 so it has outperformed Figure 8 which is rather sad as it's such a good song. Top 10 I'm not sure, top 20 for certain though

I never read the midweekes ''Spoilers'' And i know its such a shame about Figure 8 its odd Explosions is far less chart friendly but is doing so much better and i seriously think if Radio gets behind it she can get a low top 10 high top 20 and the album is benefitting greatly aswell

Well Explosions is #16 in the midweek chart, it will probably fall by Sunday but hoping for a top 20 hit. Halcyon is up 1 at #12

Probably depending on if she picks up with the announcement of its official release

I've only recently gotten into Ellie Goulding's music, Both albums a brilliant/good solid collections of tracks, hard to chose which album I prefer. I will say that on Halcyon she should of just kept Hanging On as a track on it's own, as I found the longer version feat Tinie Tempah a bit unnecessary as the edited version is good enough

I found an article from a few weeks ago. Nelly Furtado listed Halcyon as her 4th fav album of 2012

She is up 5 to 16 her 4th highest position so far lets hope it climbs further if radio gets behind it an easy top 10 Also halcyon down 1 to 11 at least it's only 1 place but i wanted it to rise but oh well

Woo #16! Now it's broke into the top 20, I expect it'll do better next week when the video starts to get a bit more play. Happy with that.

I know i would say sales wise 40k in 3 weeks so not bad going .

I'm unsure though as to whether radio and the music channels will play it not heard it on Radio 1 and they are her biggest station in terms of mainstream support and it's doubtful Capitol will bother. It's annoying as they played and continue to play ATCH but snubbed figure 8 and seem not too bothered by explosions either even though it is proving popular so
