Morning everyone


I wonder how Mattm feels today after all of those interviews he had to do; hope he has not lost his voice. He seemed to charm and impress those who interviewed him.

[quote=wkdstepmother;52487341]YT hits are irrelevant and has been said their is no correlation at all between the hits SJ has and the single sales.

That said we should also remember that it's the summer holidays and most of Cher and 1Ds fans are off school all day with nothing better to do than watch videos on YT, whereas most of Matt's fans will be at work. This really came home to me yesterday cos I watched the clip over and over again which I'd never have had time to do if I was not still on leave. On Monday I'll probably watch it a couple of times, make and MP3 for my ipod and not watch it again, whereas my kids like to watch the video probably more than listen to the song.[/QUOTE]

Your right Wikd about the difference between Matt and ID and Cher fans. Also the watching of the Yts ...............and then listening thereafter to the song on your MP3 or whatever countless times during the day. I am so looking forward to the 'whole' video on Monday.

Update on the extra Shetland gig -

Great and initially frantic sales for Matt C again this morning - and we didna have to "move' any tickets at all - so hopefully no more issues and more importantly no more disappointed folk which is great news. Very Happy

Ignore the "sold out" rumours that are flying around as always. Tickets sales are brilliant again - but some are still available in High Level and on Ticketmaster if you're quick. They are still selling steadily as we speak though, so it wid be best to move as fast as possible.

Toasty iv pmed you.

Morning

Singles need loads of airplay so more people hear the song and it gets better sales. And Matt needs to do more promo before the single and album get released... remember he's been out of the public eye for months, not everyone follows him online and won't even know he has music coming out.

About the band, Paul Bullen (who has played at Highbarn) will be in it but I think that's all we know...

Morning all


I just voted. A few posters of Matt still there


Great news I'll be able to watch it at 8.55 a.m. on MTV Hits and again at 9 a.m.on VIVA before I head off to work. They're also repeating it throughout the day which is great.

Good to see that Heart are also going to play it on Monday morning. I see they mention Biff Stannard and Ash Howes as co-writers on the album.


Hi Riobabe - Welcome to the Matt AT In answer to your question the album is now complete and I think any tweeking that was needed has already been done. The single is getting its first play on the radio on Monday which is 5 weeks before the single is available to buy and 6 week before the album is released. I think this is normal practice for an artist.

As for the band, we don't really know very much at all at this stage except the rumour that a musician who Matt knows may be the keyboard player. I hope we find out more soon.


Good news that the additional date is selling so well

Its great isn't it toasty..............MTV too brilliant just what is needed not all people are online but most have a tv. Oh cannot wait.

Wonderful isn't it ..................when I booked in at the Guest House in Inverness they said where would he be performing she gave me two names and I said Ironworks. Also that weekend there is the Inverness Marathon so that is why there are so few places to stay according to the woman I spoke to. What was great was that she knew who I was talking about when I said Matt Cardle.

Great news that toasty I know the lady from the Guest house was thrilled he is up there performing.

Your so lucky to be going Mita. Your going to have a fantastic time.

Thank you Toasted Toad and Den J

I hope this album gives Matt all the success he deserves,and bucket fulls of confidence in his talent.

Good morning Run For Your Life will get its TV premiere Monday on MTV Hits at 8:55am and on Viva at 9:00am... it will also be repeated throughout the day on both channels.


Well I will be watching

Just tried to get onto Twitter its over capacity it seems.

Oh thanks Denj .....OH and I are also treating it as a holiday too ..............however I cannot wait to hear Matt sing live again it was fantastic at the tour but this is a much smaller gig and therefore his voice is going to sound even more wonderful.

Your welcome and I agree with what you say When did you first become interested in Matt. Was it during X Factor?

This is exactly what I think OOTP, music video are generally a shower of s**t anyway...I've always thought you should listen to a song and have your own picture/interpretation of the song in your head.....I hate it when a music video spoils your own thoughts on the song.

As far as your last sentiment goes....I feel a bit naughty saying this (and let's wait till we see the whole thing) but I think you might be right It doesn't really matter about the video though

Morning everyone xx

I was not going to watch XF last year but decided to swich it on the week that Matt had his first audition and from then on it was Matt and that is when I first became interested in Matt Cardle and his unique voice. I did not even know the song that he sang at his first audition but loved the way he sang it he just ooooozed rhythm..........he felt the song.

I very rarely go the music channels but on Monday will make an exception for Matt This may be because I'm an oldie Its much more important what the song sounds like for me and I know that with Matt's vocals I'm not going to be disappointed. I am very curious what the whole video is like but its the actual song I want to hear more than watching the video.

Morning JC and OOTP I look at it from this perspective.......... on the Radio I won't be able to see the video I will be listening to Matt singing ohh lovely. I cannot wait.

I wish I knew what time he'd be on the radio on Monday. I don't wanna get up at 6!

It says after 8am on his FB page

Same here Denj I will only be visiting the music channels because Matt will be on there. I prefer to listen to the song and as you say with Matts unique vocals we won't be disapponted. Lilke you I am curious with regards the video and like yourself its the song/voice/MATT that matters.

Great toasty now that is a civilised hour.

Last year was the first time I started watching the X Factor after I had watched BGT earlier in the year when I saw the awesome acrobat group Spellbound . So I thought I would give XF a go .
Matt's 1st audition was this cheeky,shy,bit of a bum with an interesting voice. Then following the spellbinding rendition of FTISYF I was hooked and rooting 100% for him.
He comes across slightly unsure and nervous but he just moved us all with his unique voice and demenour.
I was also very impressed how he turned the songs he sang into his special rendition. Esp HMBOMT and NIWS.
I'm so glad he has turned his life and fortunes away from just decorating and away from the public view.

Even that is an ugly hour but I can manage that. I might go online cos they often put on the webcams with a guest.
