Great news that he's #2 in France! Maybe if he wins the EMA that might get Brits buying the album, or when Rain comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdeb Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 TBWKTM is down to #145 on US iTunes, and it's #152 on Billboard's top 200 albums, but at least it's still IN the top 200. (Trying to put a good spin on it.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREDDIESDOUBLE Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Pffttt he has the MFC , who needs sales  The good thing is ... no massive arenas for Mika at this rate , we will always have cosy little venues  <maybe not what they want mind you:teehee:> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindahf1 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Couldn't agree with you more! Â nothing worse then being stuck miles away, can't wait to see him at hammersmith again but i do think Royal Albert Hall would be good for him because of the accoustics. I have seen several acts there, james morrision, sugababes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatagordinha Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 #48 in the UK chart?? That's really shocking . Â I hope Rain will eventually push the album back up into, say, the Top 20. With the Christmas period coming up I think that's as high as we can expect, tbh. Then I think he needs to get another single out pronto in the New Year and keep the momentum going a bit. Â That's the one positive thing about all this: the album really does have a lot of potential singles. Pity WAG was just the wrong choice of first single (with hindsight ).

Pity WAG was just the wrong choice of first single (with hindsight ). Lady Gaga has a single coming out the same day as Mika. BUT, the single, Bad Romance, which is a brand new song, is also part of a souped-up version of her album which is out the same day. Alan has ordered her souped-up version of the album, rather than the single. Let's hope other Gaga fans choose to buy the album with the extra disc of new songs, rather than getting the single on that day. I think Mika MUST know about this, seeing as how M&G are buddies. Maybe that's why he's included Pokerface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not to say I don't think it's worthy of #1 as I actually think it is. I'm just being realistic! Â Lady Gaga has a much higher profile and more broad appeal here than Mika.

Rain's release this time might be aimed as a push for the sales of TBWKTM - particularly for the Xmas period.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I'm hoping that when People see him at the RAH they might realise how great he is. There are a lot of other acts, like Take That, which will get viewers watching the show. It will get great ratings because of the other acts, but I hope when they see Mika they will be so impressed with him that they will start to love him! I hope so anyway.

xlindee Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Still no sign of Rain here. It still gets played on the radio now and then (well, at least on 3FM, dunno about the rest) I haven't seen it on TV yet, while the official release date here in Holland was the 28th of September.

roxy Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 hmm i think we're counting too much on rain... people mostly do not buy an album because they like 1 song i bought LICM because i liked first GK, then relax, lollipop, love today, big girls,... and although TBWKTM has a lot of potential singles, and the music is definitely as good as LICM, i don't think it contains as many hits as LICM. Don't get me wrong, TBWKTM is defenitely as good as LICM, but i don't think it has as much radio-potential... but maybe that's just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
