@CherylOfficial Haha! ANYTHING for you beautiful! 💁🏻 #PalPerks Perrie <3

Check out their Twitter feed, they are doing video responses to the Q&A and its pretty good.

Edit: Its funny how they say "keep downloading". Once you buy it you cant keep downloading. Also "its so close". Its not going to be close at all.

Boy, I hate you, really hate you.
My mama said I shouldn't date you."”

Looks like there's going to be some humour in a track or two.

I actually think that James Arthur tweet was a response to the accusations of him stealing the script song - not a slight at Little Mix.

The Q&A is trending #3-4 worldwide (behind the Nintendo announcement, naturally). Impressive. I feel like that's the kind of thing they wouldn't usually have the Twitter base for.

Its a revelation that they are so relaxed and visibly happy for this. It feels like this album and campaign are going to be a "Mix" of all the best parts of previous campaigns. Everything came together.

Indeed. Just annoyed they are releasing the same week as Bruno and Metallica who have both always chart at #1.

Maybe Little Mix will shock us all with sales!

I still think Elvis is the real competition.

^It's coming out a full month earlier, and I'll be impressed if most people are up for it twice.

They actually write a bit too and may do more of that.

Strong US feel about the video again. Of course, the US always makes for good scenary.

My comment is in response to reading years of people projecting onto LM and not seeing them for what they are in reality. We have no control over them. We all have wants and desires, but we arent them.

And guess what? They're smashing being what they are.”

I like them because they are fun, they are beautiful and they are themselves.

Last year I think he had already been out 3 weeks, and this time the Royal Philharmonic will be touring with it when LM are releasing theirs.

They shot it in Spain though? I'm really glad they didnt do the extremely overdone frolicking in Malibu/Santa Monica beach or the shot in the high desert here with the Joshua Trees like every other British artist has done.

I'm not sure about this time around with Elvis. Metallica have such a huge fanbase that's their competition imo. Who knows there's a lot of momentum with LM atm. Glory days could explode. Lets hope so! Having said that I'd like to see significant sales growth compared to Get Weird regardless of final chart position. That would be some achievement when the majority of pop acts would be flopping around album 3 or 4. LM still have not reached their peak. Very impressive indeed!

What's impressed me so much this week is that not only has the streaming exploded, it wasnt at the expense of sales. The sales exploded too, contrary to market trends. In fact I really want to see what a full 7 days would have gotten them when we hear what Friday and Saturday tallies are. They've achieved what few artists have in being strong now on both fronts.

I expect their album sales to increase markedly too.

Chart hounds, is this true what Hitstastic posted?

It's touch n' go whether SOTME can scrape past 100k but it's going to be close to that figure by the end of tonight.

Incredible when I consider how slow the charts have become in these last 10 months.

The last time a song got released mid-week and still made it to #1 was We Found Love in 2011. Released on a Wednesday and sold enough in 4 days to enter at #1.

Iirc, Eminem's single The Monster was only available from the Monday as it was released alongside the album pre-order but that was still 6 days of sales.

Little Mix have achieved all this with just 4 days and 5 hours (Sunday night ) on sale/streaming.

So, could SOTME spend longer at #1 than Black Magic? It's looking promising at the moment.”

How come the XF video of SOTME is now private?

Yeah! So pleased how well SOTME is doing. Don't think anyone expected this did they?

The label probably doesn't want the official video being overshadowed by the live performance, especially in the search engine. You get the XF video first. They'll probably make it public again once the MV is released. No biggie.

The official video is coming out in 3 hours. I guess they want all the focus on vevo.

I've been spinning it a few dozen times every day and I'm going to only play it on Youtube, not Spotify, until it leaves the trending list on Youtube. They don't seem to be having problems on paid streaming services this era anyway. Maybe the fanbase has grown up a bit.

I did think this myself. You'd think they'd hurry up and get the video out asap.
