Clean Bandit finally overtook LM on iTunes. It only took almost 3 weeks for LM to fall off #1. Well done.
Great achievement!

I think JA has quite a lead on streams too

I'd love if they released one of the tour videos as the next instant grat, that way they don't reveal too many songs before the album comes out

There's only one more Friday left before the album though so possibly just one more insta grat to go which still leaves 10 tracks unheard, 12 for me as I haven't heard F.U and won't be listening to anymore songs before the album.

I can't see them revealing multiple tracks midweek, maybe snippets.

I keep forgetting album release is so close! If I'm honest, I'm just desperate to see more of the HQ performance videos, Hair got me so excited to see the rest

I need Lightning HQ. Also, someone on the brazilian forum mentioned the extra tracks on the japanese version were exra footage from the tour? could they have gotten the ones we didn't? why, if so?

I see more Europen radio stations playing it going by Twitter? The strategy for promotion here seems to be working. The global streams are staying up there even if the UK is dipping now.

I realized that there's only been 2 performances of the song in the UK, whereas in the past by now they would have done a bunch, and the XF one was even taken offline.

Same, I was happy with SOTME and one instant grat. I'd love for them to put Lightning up on their Vevo, or another album track where people can see a different side to them. I'm kinda more excited about the tour videos than the rest of the album atm as we have had three new songs so close together.

Its Thursday. Is that EMAs thing happening or not?

I like their new styling except for the floppy jackets. The high boots are a nice way to give them a heel but still be able to dance and I also like the chic casual look thats more adult.

i think i'd rather they not perform at all if they're just going to do that half-arsed no dancers/ no live band/ badly mimed chorus thing again :/

though i do realize the people in Norway that want to see them perform will probably be happy just because they're there. oh well.

^^Really? I thought the Belgian performance was really good with the live vocals and no extraneous guys flopping around onstage.

singing along to a backing track is half-arsing a performance to me.

... idk, with Black Magic they regressed into not exactly inspired half-dance moves (what even are those leg raises?? and pumping hands into air lol...) and are now co-opting them into the SOTME performances. it's boring.


sure, they sound good as they always do however for a tv show with idk how many viewers, they should aim for more imho.

Some people always seem to complain about something or other. In my world they can do no wrong.

It`s called dancing.

imho, your just being picky. If you`ve seen there schedule you would know it`s jammed full. They are not robots.

The size of that studio stage doesnt look friendly for a big production to me.

I actually like the kinder choreo of BM and this. Those relentless Cheryl Cole leg squats from Honan were overused and not very elegant. It also lets them sing live more. I'll take the tradeoff.

I understand what you mean but they can only work with what they have been given, still loving it though and all will come good for the concerts I'm sure.

Most of the albums I like this year didn't immediately takr me back to another artist's work the way these three songs did...
OT

This is an aside so not aimed at you but just something I see a lot. I notice for every single new song by anybody music fans love to say "this is giving me Song by X teas". I literally see this for every new song. It must be part of a human need to find an analog for the unknown to become known, and therefore able to understand. I also see it in my weather forum. "This year was just like XXXX when the big snows came in".

I tend to dismiss "this song reminds me of" because we all want to relate it to something, and what we can relate it to depends on our individual experiences.
