Maybe people like fun and playful Mix? Now I hope Oops charts high in the US just to watch people implode.

Why don't you enjoy the fact that they have 3 songs on the cusp of top 10 as opposed to the constant whinging about Oops, it's not like Touch is at #90 and it's 2nd version is much higher. It's getting annoying now
P.S. Oops isn't childish, it's tongue in cheek and a bit of fun. Lighten up.

Absolutely, Oops is not childish, it's Bublesque! And he's hardly childish.
They played Oops first...perhaps the GP will think it is the next single?
Oops could be high impact in the US with a just-this-side-of-tacky big production number on tv.
I love how versatile LM are as opposed to an Ed Sheeran type.

And maybe not do 'Touch' as the single?

If Leigh was hinting at something I think the label is buying more time by switching the single order around for the US. I just hope they finally push more than 1 song.
This is exciting! Have they ever had so many singles as high like this simultaneously?
11 Little Mix Touch
12 Little Mix Oops (feat. Charlie Puth)
13 Little Mix Shout Out to My Ex
The Winners single won't last long as I don't see it selling much once Christmas is over. It will be interesting to see where it charts, as it doesn't seem to have much streaming power. I expect Touch to grow over the weeks. Haven't head it on radio yet, though I don't listen that often TBH.

Sounds like Scherzinger might have written that!
Columbia splashing that label cash! They've been offering trips for 2 to see LM at the Today show at several radio stations, like this one in Philly and Detroit. It even says "Special thanks to Columbia" so maybe they are serious this time.

Touch is #9 on my iTunes at the moment. Although I don't expect it to crack the top 10 - except DNA their second singles have never managed to crack the Top 10 have they?
Looks like they`re all gonna get some well needed R&R before the tour kicks in.
Perrie`s treating 16 members of her family to a trip to Lapland, all paid for by her. Leigh`s going to Jamaica in January, paid by her. Jade`s going on a short holiday with Jed over Xmas. Jesy`s staying home - But she does have a new house.

I agree it isn't my favourite song on the Album do I do think it actually stands the best chance of doing well in the US out of all the songs on Glory Days tbh !

I was about to say 'erm Salute?' and then remembered that Little Me is a thing.

I didnt realize Charlie Puth is as big as he is over here. If they can do an uber charming video I think the song could do well.
A bit OT but for those of us tracking stats this video about what's been going on with Youtube this year was really interesting.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyHaMVRgBV0
TLDW:
- Youtube is promoting new videos more heavily at the expense of back catalogues. Some of those new 24h records may not mean quite as much as fans want to think (shhh!), but videos that maintain well after the first 2-3 days are more impressive than ever. Major gaming vloggers are seeing massive cuts in old video views, perhaps along the lines of 30, 40%.
- Youtube has been rewarding 10 min+ videos for years, and is now favoring longer and longer videos. Total watch time is what matters for promotion by the algorithm and not view counts, likes/dislikes, comments, or finishing the video (bad for music promotion)
- As of the last few months Youtube is now focused on daily active users on each channel, because they want Youtube to be a daily habit like television, and rewards channels that publish every single day (bad for music promotion)
- Youtube's trending tab seems to be curated and focused on helping users discover channels that match the above criteria, and building a base for brand channels that buy ads. So don't take the trending numbers seriously at all.

SOTME so close to 100m views - currently on 99,663,065 views
Anyone know when they are going to drop the touch video? I have been behind on their interviews and things so not sure if they've hinted anything. Also, are they going to release a single mix for Touch? The one on iTunes is from Glory Days.

Yeah so none of LM's iTunes boost has been added in yet. BJ thinks they'll be #2 this week.

That could explain why all the reaction video channels are picking up LM now?
Forever bitter they didn't do a live lounge this year, BBC Music Awards have added a 'Live Lounge Of The Year' award and they easily could of got nominated.
