Showtunes17 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 The single isn't even top 40 [in midweeks] hence why the delay in position to find out where it is. Rain needs to be promoted more... I'm not sure what needs to be done now to push the album? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcdeb Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Well, this is an unexpected surprise -- Mika's vanished from all the other US charts, but WAG is #6 on Billboard's Dance/Club Songs list! That's something at least. I expect to see Rain on there, soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rain needs to be promoted more... I'm not sure what needs to be done now to push the album? But it's only 135 on iTunes, which ties in with it Maybe people are buying hte album now they've heard 2 songs they like TBWKTM has gone back up the charts Mika must be gutted And to think I was pleased yesterday when I saw hmv Middlesbrough were promoting the album as one of their "best of 2009" selection!

babspanky Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 On the other hand, if no one mentioned, I saw that TBWKTM went from 68 to 43 or maybe 63 to 48? Anyway it went up. And as Mika says, his ticket sales are still good and don't they say that's where money is to be made these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marilyn Mastin Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Glass half full thats what we like It's the only way to look at it really. I wonder if the awful weather has something to do with people not downloading the single. On the other hand, if the album sells and his tickets sell, that's good anyway. But I agree, Mika must be so upset about the single. Tbh, I still wonder why he has ignored a real gem on the album, called Good Gone Girl. Even one of the DJs who interviewed him when the album came out, said it would have made a brilliant single! But it's all in hindsight, with no way to know what he should have done for the best.

Yeh thats a great song for sure , I just think rain and the ability to remix it and put it on the club scene would of been promotion in itself:boxed: Its a song like grace kelly that could be remixed and heard much more through the main stream Maybe touches you ? .. thats also another really really great single Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soaring Simpson Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I have given up all thought of predicting what would make a top selling single. Obviously I haven't the slightest idea and it's not the same as a good single- cos Rain's brilliant I keep thinking it must be a mistake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the songs could be singles and they are all better than the drivel on R1 and R2. I could understand him being beaten by big established stars (Madonna or Robbie W) or overhyped X-c*** stuff but most of the rest is just dull dull dull. I wonder if Mika just falls between too many stools - sometimes I think he is too clever - too many styles, too much of a chameleon - and too nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CazGirl Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 whenever i put the radio on, all I hear is JLS. I think Mika should perhaps have done more stuff like perform in shopping centres or whatever. Reeeaaally get in people's faces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuna Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Let me tell you about Korean music chart. Among 2nd album songs, the song whick was at the highest peak is not WAG, not BIOTG, not Rain. It's Loverboy, which was no 8 , and still remains the chart. isn't it a bonus track huh? Why did he put the best song on the last track? WAG was 18, BIOTG was 12 at peak. Rain is never on the top 100 chart. I totally remember the moment when I listened MIKA CD TBWNTM very first time. 26th october. I got it for my present and at that time I didn't know who Mika is , where's he from, even male or female... knew nothing about him and his albums, single cuts. When I listened the whole tracks, I thought " It's weird he put the best songs at the back of the tracks, like GoodGoneGirl, Loverboy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I See You would be a good one, I think Touches You has too much of a weird subject to be a commercial success, as catchy as it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I haven't the slightest idea and it's not the same as a good single- cos Rain's brilliant I keep thinking it must be a mistake! I started thinking that too Soaring Simpson! I don't understand it. WAG is brilliant & everywhere Mika goes I can't believe the amount of fans that sing the chorus back to Mika and I'm not talking about his concerts. Mika said recently that he wants "them" - whoever them are - to take WAG off of the radio so they will start promoting & pushing Rain. The concerts are very well attended. I have googled all the music charts from everywhere I can find. But they don't show TBWKTM doing well. Yet I think it is - if it is when will it show it is???? I keep thinking I am missing something. Personally I think TBWKTM is absolutely brilliant! I love it more than LICM which I didn't think was possible - which I suppose isn't very nice of me - except it is more complicated than that. I am so confused or being such a Loyal Mika Fan - I am out of touch with reality. Hahaha!:roftl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
