Exactly - where are the tweets from RCA - there have been two since he signed, the last one was months ago....

I am confused by Andrea's tweet saying the single is out soon? I downloaded it on iTunes as a single in it's own right, not as part of the album (which I have already ordered in hard copy and on other platforms as a digital copy)... (Then, of course, I also ordered the album ). So, why have I been able to buy it as a single?
I think what's happening is that although the single is available now, it's more for building momentum and to get the song out there, but its officially release will be the 10th as stated on most articles. On iTunes it doesn't actually appear as a single separate from the album, you have to purchase it from the track list. I think when it's officially released there will be artwork, a music video etc. And plenty more promo/radio plays behind it hopefully!

Just look at that! He's shameless. As if he didn't know what he was doing. Who has claimed the prize? Ha ha. Oh golly gumdrops! It seems to be me! What a lovely surprise! Give me strength!

Is it every 10 streams that count as a download or every 100?
I read last night that every 100 streams count as a single sale... Better get streaming

I think he probably means out as an official release in all outlets by the 10th July. There will probably be more promotion and a video to accompany the single closer to the time. They only thing I worry about is with the long time inbetween most people will have already bought the single leading up to that date, I don't know how that works

Yes - let's do it - 5,000 posts and 200 pages is reasonable..... Who wants the honour?

I hope that all of his fans' downloads will count towards the chart position when it is 'officially' released - because all of his fans have already bought it now - and there's a You Tube video with 5,000 views already...

I am gonna hold back on buying through amazon and google till that week. I got it on iTunes yesterday and when I hear back from Spotify I will get streaming it constantly.

I forgot to mention earlier, but if you go on to the itunes store homepage, and scroll to the bottom where it says 'pre orders' Kelly is among the few they show when you scroll across!

That's good - that implies good sales in the last few days I believe....

Hey Fanstinis!

Just a quick reminder. Instead of playing 'Give A Little Love' again and again on your ipod or itunes library or whatever do it on spotify! Every 5 plays counts as one sale.
