Klou usually mentions that when a song reaches the top 20 on Pop Radio that it sales will increase heavily. Seeing that PTA gained a healthy amount of audience impressions and is in a good spot on itunes and is now top 20 on Pop Radio, I expect it to be in the top 20 soon, and eventually reach the top 10. I predict a peak position in the lower regions of the top 10, or, if she's lucky, the song will peak at #5 like Starships and in the top 5 on Pop Radio. :)

Leo knows everything. I honestly didn't believe PTA would do any better but it surged once it hit the Top 20.

The king of this thread and charts in general tbh :nacho:

Ellie's new song is interesting. I just wish the instrumental chorus section wouldn't just be two chords back to back :fail: Could be so much more effective with a four chord progression. The "anything could happen, anything could happen" build up with the layered vocals is phenomenal though :legend: I don't expect much from it chart wise but I never thought Lights would either, especially over a year after it came out.

I'm just glad she didn't take the generic pop route to take advantage of the success of Lights.

Nicki shade, I see. :L4G:

Could fit for Taylor too. She was sagging in single sales in the US, and now listen to her new single...

It won't reach the top 10, Ozzy.

Nicki PTA peaked at #9 in UK - my own general rule is:

"don't expect a Redone Calvin Harris dance number to do better in US than UK."

It actually already made a jump from around 18 to where it is now. It did that within 24 hours after it reached the top 20. It was since bumped to 21 and then back to top 20 again on Pop Radio, so I'm not sure if we'll see another jump on iTunes or not. We'll see soon :)

I always appreciated Muse, but never liked their stuff enough to buy it. Now after hearing their new stuff, I am DEFINITELY buying their new album.

Debut single "Madness" is currently #45 on iTunes. Also check out the ultra epic "Unsustainable" on youtube.

I've never really found any of their music appealing. It goes right through me. :P

I'm not going to lie. It's definitely an aquired taste :) I didn't like them for awhile.

It's a good that his label isn't just releasing it to radio though. The separate digital release will make people think it's new.

Interscope should have done that when they saw MTN struggling. People would have bought it, thinking it was a new single :toofloppy:

There'd be no point doing that though if you think about it. You release a single to promote an album, so why would you try and fool people into thinking it's a new single?

Well it wouldn't make sense for Gaga, but it'd make sense for Katy considering Capitol is #1 hungry and they don't give a **** about album sales.

I was kidding though, that's why I added the :toofloppy: emoticon
