Has any other artist done that?

As far as I know it isn't possible to have a song download on itunes before it is released to the public.



It makes no sense anyways. Why pass up the extra sales?

[Penny.]

i have no idea but they explained it as "exclusive tracks for people who preorder MM"
thats all i kno

but idk if its ever been done or if its even possible lol

[Wafflecakes]

Ok. Seeing Gaga's massive floppage WITH 100k+ pre-orders and a moderate hit single I have decided to be more conservative on 1D.

I will be completely content with 500k, and not predict ONE copy higher.

Lol...u mean for Diana or the album?

[Wafflecakes]

The album.

I cannot make any informed opinion about Diana until we know for sure whether it is being released on itunes for purchase.

[JungleDisturbia]

Waffles is going to have an absolute field day with the sales.

[Troye]

If they hit 500k, I'm glad. It means they have consistency. It'll be great if they hit higher though.

[JungleDisturbia]

What did TMH open with again?

[Troye]

According to Billboard's source (Nielsen Sound Scan), they debuted at #1 with 540,000 copies.

[TheBronxGirl]

Is the single performing well?

...all of a sudden the predictions of 500K seem quite high.
But it's by no means unachievable. I guess we'll see how well their name can sell.

It has no legs on it's own and it isn't being promoted, so it could be doing a lot better.

No, high would be saying it will pull 540K. 500k is a generous undercut.

I am specifically avoiding being shady outside of base so I have enough WP space to have some fun

ATRL will know of the Kings victory. Oh yes they will

A lot depends on the promo blitz that is coming up.

I could see it falling anywhere in the 400-600k range.

I guess it's matter of if their star power increased enough to compensate for the girls that outgrew them now.

I am looking forward to this day. Are you going to make a thread? Compile a bookmarked list of the naysayers?

[Wafflecakes]

Have not decided yet.

Do we have the grosses from the tour now that it is over? Curious to see if they managed to pull 100 million or not.

I think it will most likely do better when the album is released, but it wasn't a strong first single imo.

[Troye]

Even with the album release, I don't see the single doing much.

[MWB]

I don't see any of their singles doing well this era.

Except 'Diana'.

Princess Diana's impact.
