Eric Saade's deal with River Island has finally kicked into massive effects as copies were shipped to River Island stores all over the world. Over 115,000 copies were shipped according to River Island represntatives. With Justin Bieber's label shipping over 100,000 copies to H&M, it seems that the labels are aiming for a physical surge in sales to match the digital one on iTunes where the song sits at #1 and #2, double the lead of #3 that happens to be a Charli XCX single or something. Saade's album quickly reclaimed the throne on digital markets. This should be a massive weak for the two leading acts in music right now.

Charli XCX At The Grammys

Charli XCX Attended music's Biggest night last night wearing a black corset top with pink neon lights over the corset and the black black bottom part of the dress. She looked fabulous and enjoyed the night and partied, especially during the performances of Beyonce or Kendrick Lamar & Imagine Dragons's medley where she was filmed lip syncing the lyrics of "Radioactive" from the audience.
She then had to perform. The stage she performed on was dark. A few notes from the song "XCX" played building some hype in the audience. Suddenly pink neon lights made the whole stage light up and "XCX", Charli XCX's lead single started playing while she arrived on stage on a flying platform wearing a black leotard with pink metallic structures over it. she sang the verses of the song energetically and jumped right before the chorus with all the dancers, and the whole crowd went crazy. The song was shortened and it right after the chorus the breakdown started and Charli danced a new choreography during it.
The song suddenly transitioned and the notes of "I Love The Poison" Can be heard. She started singing the regular song. She sang everything normally with the explosive choreography for it. During the breakdown she sang samples of the song "Dancing Darkness" and the track went back to "I Love The Poison". The 6 minutes performance ended with huge fake pink fires "exploding" all around the stage and Charli disappearing between the white fog that started appearing.

SAADDE LIVE IN NEWARK
Eric Saade performed another concert date of the Exposè World Tour tonight in Newark to over thirteen thousand people. He added some new covers to the set and added an extra song from his previous albums to the setlist. The concert was sold out as Saade entertained his fans with a show full of amazing songs, vocals, and amazing covers. The stage was also extended and the show was entirely revamped
STAGE
Setlist:
XXX
Make You Sweat
Back Of The Cab
Bad Girls
Midnight Love
Navigate
Sophistication
The stage remained in darkness, the audience seeing nothing but the dark lines of objects on the stage. An orchestra began to play as the stage began lighting, revealing statues of angels and fountas on the main sectiojn of the stage. A staircase became visible as lights started illuminating women sitting on them in a seductive manor one by one, on each side of the staircase. With five women in ball gowns seated on every side of the dual staircase, there was a dramatic pause before the top was revealed. The orchestra reached a crescendo before it showed Saade in a black tux with shades on. With a head mic instead of a hand one, he began singing as the production of Sophistication blared over the speakers. Saade sang the entire first live as the girls walked up the steps to pass behind Saade, touching on him when walking by before they had switched sides of the steps. The chorus hit and male dancers in suits as well came from the bottom of the stage as Saade and the dancers broke out in a choreographed number that involved a lot of footwork. The female dancers posed seductively on the staircase. The second verse hit but before it could the male dancers stood at the bottom center of the staircase. The production took a bit of a synth intro and Saade jumped from the top of the staircase into the circle of male dancers. With another strong synth, the stage was dimly lit as fans blew wind at Saade and hhis dancers. Saade and his dancers broke out into another dancebreak as Saade lipped to pre-recorded vocals. After the second verse, Eric with his dancers, repeated the chorus dance routine and thunder shook the venue when water began falling from the front of the stage in the form of rain. Saade in some way had grabbed a hand mic from a dancer as he walked out into the water, getting soaked and began singing the bridge completely live. He hit a big note in falsetto as he sang the final chorus in a slowed down orchestral version before he fell to his knees and the stage slowly faded into darkness, the crowd giving Saade a marvelous reception.

Coming Home
Expose
I Swear
The performance started off the stage in a very geometrical setting. Boxes of white walls filled the stage, the outlines of them illuminated by fluorescent white lights. They lit up as the instrumental of I Swear started. The first two boxes illuminated showed two silhouettes of females standing. The last box illuminated to show Saade standing with a microphone as he began singing the Taylor Swift co-written song. The performance was pretty simple, the song being stripped down to a more ballad feel that people say the original sounded more like.

Eric Saade was live at The Grammy Awards this Sunday. Set to perform his new single 'Favorite Kind of Trouble', there was no confirmation on whether or not Justin Bieber would be joining the Swedish pop phenomenon. The performance started off with a lovely introduction by the amazing Taylor Swift who recently went #1 with Eric Saade this week with their collaboration of 'I Swear', becoming Saade's second conscutive number one in a row. Sources say that Saade could be sharing his third with 'Favorite Kind of Trouble' with Justin Bieber this week as well. "Introducing to the stage, all the way from Sweden, a talented performer and friend, Eric Saade!" The performance started off with black sheet like fabrics blowing across the stage with lights outliing them. The instrumental started and dancers rose from the stage with black flags. The instrumental continued as someone made a wind blowing noise with their mouth. The bass that started the first verse of Favorite Kind of Trouble started and the black sheets flew to either side in an instant and Saade appeared in front of red 'X'. He sang live and looked to either side as the dancers seemed paralyzed. He did some movements and ther singers did after. A red light shined during the pre-chorus as the chorus hit and Saade started singing the chorus. Choreography was involved. Before the second verse hit, smoke flew from the celing and a red light took over the stage. Bieber stood in front of Saade as the two did a mime effect before smoke hit again and they both disappeared only to reappear in and entirely different outfit. Ending the verse with a backlflip in sync they danced with dancers and finished off the second verse before the bridge hit. A strobe red light hit as visual clones of Saade and Bieber were seen doing choreography with them. They ended the final chorus standing side by side, staring into the audience.

Eric Saade and Justin Bieber were live on The Voice UK this week, performing from the States instead of the UK live. The performance was similar to their Grammy one except it wasn't as big production wise. The two had less dancers and had it more stripped and intimate as the platform was much smaller than The Grammy's. Saade wore Balmain as Bieber did. The performance boosted the song in iTunes to #1 and #2, the second version being the album verison of the song Saade released from his collection, The Exposé Collection. Make sure you get the album in stores now.

Short self directed videos by Saade for three promo singles off his album Exposé: Part 1 & 2 were released to the singer's VEVO today. The first video uploaded was 'Under The Influence'. It featured heavy drinking and smoking as it showed Saade like the title under the influence as he wandered through a strip club, the stripped blurred as the video takes the role of his blurred vision. He makes it out the club, blurred vision as he sees police lights and police sirens. Gun shots are heard before the video ends adruptly and a shot an underwater scene at night is shown. The second video was for Adore You. It basically just showed couples in different situations. Like a prostitute in love with a thug, trying to make it out of the hard life. A gay couple and lastly Saade standing in front of a brick wal. Taylor Swift made an appearance standing beside Saade. The video was one of the most well received. The last video for 'The Fallout' which was shot with 360 degree platform. It featured Saade singing as if time were frozen. Objects would fly and he'd walk around as the screen would flip. It was visually stimulating, we may say.

The two worked together on "Fast Times at University" and the accompanying soundtrack doing a song together.
Justin's label has commented the 24 track edition will be available everywhere though, they don't wanna confuse fans with already so much music.
Justin throws charity concert, in OKLAHOMA?!
The surpirse concert -- surprise location.
Justin is known for his surprise concerts, he constantly does for his charity -- but the locations are what makes them so big. They've been done in New York City, Miami, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and other countries. Nobody ever imagined he'd throw a surprise one in....Oklahoma?! He surprised fans in some states he never gets to go to, because the population isn't big with a surprise concert. He announced via Twitter it'd be in Oklahoma, (the admission was FREE this time instead of the usual $10 that goes to charity) and fans from the state and it's bordering small states rushed to see him. He started the concert 2 hours later, with a small amount (10,000) in attendance and made it their day. They cried, laughed, and spent time with King Justin. Most had never got to see him before, something he felt good about.
