They've been lazy? Really? Many artists aren't doing near as much promo or grafting as these girls are doing on their 4TH album in

Thank you, ladies. If those performances you suggested don't make her fall in L-O-V-E (see what I did there?) chick must be deaf hahaha!

I was about to say this.... they've been constantly going, going, going for weeks now. I honestly don't think I could do it. Seems Simon has put them on the same promo schedule he used to reserve for 1D. But since they ARE his cash cow now it makes total sense. I know they love it but I feel a bit bad for them, especially this time 'round.

NME gave Get Weird a good review so I'm surprised, or are they just late?

I'd rather they refuse to review it, than review it and give it an awful rating because they don't like that type of music.

Doesnt the Telegraph usually do a review too?

OT but I was looking at those Rihanna XF performances and those are the epitome of lazy.

I love most to practically all of Rihanna's songs and think she is absolutely beautiful but I went to go see the Anti World Tour and I was massively disappointed. She hardly sang any of the songs in full, sang every other line or a few words from each line and I thought she was being extremely lazy with her dancing too.

Absolutely
LOL
I've seen the same thing on a number of occasions. It's really frustrating

Just wondering what GD first week global sales will be. I am guessing around the 190,000 mark. anyone else?.

Is this new because Leigh gave a huge yawn just over a minute in.

In case anyone here doesn't venture outside of the thread, I just want to mention that Saara Aalto put in probably the best solo talent show vocal I've ever seen yesterday. Something special, don't sleep on it!

Yeah watched that live she was immense.

Twitter is agitating hard for Power as a single. No doubt it's performing really well on Spotify. It just seems like a big ask from the mainstream they're going to be trying to crack next year.

I've never plotted out imaginary single runs past 4 singles, but if there's a place to stretch to 5 this is it. They've got to run Touch -> Oops -> NMSS first before throwing in a track with some goofy and experimental elements.

Really very, very nice - Thanks for the link .

no lol that's too much, GW opened with nearly 50k more than they sold in the UK and 21k out of that was from the US.

I'd guess 130k/140k at best...

Exactly how I feel.

The Itunes positions of the album tracks:

#325 Touch
#388 Power
#441 Oops
#644 Nobody Like You
#760 F.U.
#803 Freak
#815 Power
#843 Down & Dirty
#952 You Gotta Not
#970 Touch (acoustic)
#1012 No More Sad Songs
#1286 Beep Beep
#1373 Nothing Else Matters
#1394 Private Show

Power is the only track charting twice in the Top1500 and it wasn't even an instant grat.. They really need to start thinking about what to do with the song because it's showing huge potential.

I keep changing my mind about whether I want Power as the 4th or 5th single. I think it would do the best during summer.

Before even considering it as a single they must remix it. Firstly it's too long and secondly the beginning alone will make some people switch off.

iTunes UK
#49 - SLS (+7)

Yep, it definitely needs a good remix for radio.
Power also needs an epic music video but I doubt they would spend lots of money on a video for the fourth or fifth single :-/

tbh the whole point of it being a single would be the music video, especially for fans who are demanding it, so if they don't intend on spending the money don't even bother

Me three!! But I'm finding it so hard to warm to Oops. It's not bad (like Beep Beep) but it just doesn't have that wow factor like NMSS and Power.

OT but those that watch X Factor this literally has me in laughing fits every time

I just feel NMSS needs to be a single. Not just because I love it, but because it sounds so mainstream to me, similar to Bieber (Sorry, Cold Water) and Galantis (Love On Me), very much radio and US friendly.
