Oh...I've been looking forward to the English video but the editing's a bit pathetic! But yeah Gigolo's definitely her strongest song to date!

As I recall, I think I voted for both. I remember Chiara being my favourite, but predicting and hoping Helena would win, so I probably voted for both.

Hey everybody. Mambo was released today and is available in all good record shops

Make sure you buy your copy before the end of the week - I've got mine! It's also available on iTunes.

Well it's definitely got a fair chance of going Top 40, even if not any higher...

Do your bit and buy a copy

Well it made the club play top ten - which disqualifies R'n'B and hip hop...not quite the same!

But still I'm fairly confident she can make the top 40...I hope you'll be buying it

Well according to first day figures, Mambo has failed to even make the Top 200!! Apparently #200 is currently sitting on around 200 copies...

I know it was never going to be a smash, but I find it very very hard to believe that the single has failed to sell 200 copies nationwide in a day including downloads! I'm positive there is a mistake...

Oh I am really surprised! I just came home from Leicester Square where i went clubbing. I am happy to say that the DJ at the club i went played the Dancing DJ's mix of Mambo

Ah i also found out that appart from Dancemania 10 and Clubland, Mambo (Dancing DJ's mix) is included in the forthcoming ClubMix2007 compilation

http://www.play.com/Music/CD/STGCS9/...7/Product.html

It's not that bad actually (forget the midweek charts).

I've seen the Top 200 midweeks, and it hasn't entered.

Yep I've seen them, but I think there's definitely something wrong. Wasn't #200 sitting at about 150 copies? I find it very hard to believe that Mambo failed to sell, in a day, 150 copies throughout the whole country including downloads!

Don't get me wrong, I never thought it would be a big hit, but below the Top 200? I can only assume that it has, for some reason, been disqualified.
