Random thoughts listening to the album Scared Of The Dark - really as good as any of the original run of hits Tragedy - despite it being annoying that it always gets performed last, is the basic Steps fan favourite etc, it probably really does deserve to be Love's Got A Hold On My Heart - good to see it so high up the tracklisting as it sometimes feels overlooked. In my top 5. Something In Your Eyes - was underwhelmed with this at first, but has grown on me so much Story Of A Heart - whenever I hear this now, I just want it to transform into the 7th Heaven Mix halfway through After The Love Has Gone - feels like hardest done by being left off the standard edition Take Me For A Ride / A Hundred Years Of Winter - still think these are not up to usual standard and would really hope that if we're lucky enough to get another album we get better singles than these To The Beat Of My Heart - such a banger, deserved more of a "moment" Happy - possibly the album cut that deserved to be a single the most
I’ll wait until the picture disc is down to like £8 on Amazon like what happened to the What The Future Holds one.
That's true, although "get them to number one and we'll carry on" could be seen as the same type of promo. Like someone said they are all playing the same game, they all want it.
Just bought a signed vinyl for my Uncle. I'm not really sure there's any more I can do for them. I want the number one so much for them but there Is a limit. I've been streaming on Spotify. If I switch to Amazon music for a bit will that help?
None of my personalised signed copies have shipped so that's surely another few hundred to go out the door.
https://www.officialcharts.com/char...madonna-in-official-albums-chart-race__37262/ Aitch is now 300 chart units behind Madonna and the article states it’ll be a ‘big effort’ to beat Steps.
Do we think we have had our ‘thing’ for today - the vinyl bundle? I feel like they still have something up their sleeve for tomorrow, but I guess it will be a digital offer, rather than a physical?
Yeah the only way I'm buying another version of this is if there's new content, surely Gareth Shortland's done a few more mixes of the hits?!
I'm surprised how much I enjoy them when they mostly fell flat for me with the newer material. I guess the difference between the original and a current sound is just bigger? That or those songs just can't be ruined.
Unless you think it's going to be 1 sale in it you're probably not going to make any difference with streaming for the sake of helping them in the charts.. it's 1000 plays for 1 sale, and there's limit in how many plays count per day per person
What they're doing with this Greatest Hits is far superior to what they did with Will Young's retrospective collection.... Well done Fascination, you know exactly what we want... Just one more digital bundle tomorrow please (surely there's a new Tragedy or 5678 mix somewhere)
I think he'll catch Madonna, but dunno about Steps... surely the personalised orders will keep them ahead... i don't see his tshirt bundle shifting 8k units in 24 hours?
I wouldn’t be nervous, it looks like their lead is only slightly smaller than it was on Monday (at a guess, down from 8k to 6-7k). Aitch isn’t going to catch them up. They’ve got this.
