I love it when she wiggles with her arms up at the camp fire, so full of the joy and sweetness of youth and togetherness

317,000. (To put it in perspective, The Saturdays have only notched up 643,000 views in two weeks.)

Really great start! I still don't think it was the right decision to leave the video release so late but what's done is done. Let's just hope for a top 5 position but I will settle for top 10 even if others won't.

She could shock us and end up fighting for #1 :P ill be happy with top 5 tho

And leaving the video till 9 days before isn't so bad, The first week is when it get's most plays on music channels, So atleast the video/song will be fresh in peoples mind! (unlike pixie's that was out about 5 weeks ago & the saturdays 2 weeks ago, So it's not that bad to be honest!

I personally think #1 is out of the question but I'm happy to be wrong. I think a combination of club play, the video and promo will hopefully make up for the lack of radio play and get it into the top 5.

It really shows the effect of an actual music video. The audio video's had 932,000 views in over a month but the video's had 317,000 in 24 hours!

But like you said what's done is done. I do think it can get Top 5, maybe not Top 3 but I'm still thinking #4/5.

I would love Leona to go number 1 with Collide ( Btw I think it's her best video yet ) - but Syco being Syco have messed up the chances of it going number 1 - but It will definately go top 3 .

Yeah, at first I really liked Pixie's song but I'm bored of it now. The Saturdays song has grown on me though

Happy also to see the tweet earlier about it being played a lot in clubs.

Does the pre-order count as 5 sales btw because it includes the remixes?

Why won't it get to number 1?

I came back from Ibiza and it was played there and my cousin went to Ayia Napa and it was played there too! Don't see Pixie or The Saturdays having that effect, do you?

No, It counts has 1 sale, You have to buy the song's one by one if you want it to count as 5

Pixie Lott's 2 song's that got #1 first week sales.

Mama Do 58,839 copies

Boys & Girls 49,623 copies

They both got GREAT airplay and only sold that first week, I think ''All About Tonight'' will sell about 60k-70k first week! Surely if leona fans pull together she can beat that?

Collide video is up to 333,000 views now in under 23 hours

Yeah I think Pixie will probably do around 75k first week. It'll also depend on how Example/Ed Sheeran sell in their first week because they will be a threat. As much as I like The Saturdays new song I don't think they'll do anymore than 50-60k first week.

Up to 333,680 views on YT now.

EDIT: beat me

We just need Capital to get behind it and hope Radio One keep playing it

You can see the effect on Twitter too. Very few mentions when the audio went up, but a constant stream for the video and it is embedded more too.

The speed of views is partly affected by Leona being of international interest. There are tweets from lots of different countries.
