Chart position

[duke of hal]

listen guys, a few people on here (myself included) have acquired a promo of the album (and the singles to be honest), but I did so on the basis that I'd be buying it on it's week of release to maximise chart positions in Ireland and the UK.......

......can I count on you all 'playing ball'?

[highgreenowl]

i also have the promos but will be buying every possible format on day of release.

if hmv.co.uk is to be believed the single comes on cd 7" and 12" and the album on cd and limited cd.

now, where did i put that credit card

[duke of hal]

That's the spirit,

I've made a note of all those who've bragged about having the album promo, and I'll be ticking off their commitment (by them saying 'Aye' on this thread), or I send the boys round

[thesneakybandit]

i'll be getting the limited edition cd (hopefully) if you lot haven't already preordered them all :D

i'll also be getting the 7" single because it has 'quiet revoluntionaries' on it...

then i'll be getting the 10" single because it has 'stumble and fall' on it...

(all vinyl measurements and song titles are interchangeable as i can't really remember which is which)

[Guinness]

I still havn't heard any clarification to what exactly is on this "limited edition" cd everyone seems to be talking about.

As for the rest, yes I shall be getting them and I have already got my SFTDF album as it was released when I got to Dublin on Friday. There was a mix up with the release dates from what the main man says!

Thought I'd best reply before Duke of Hal sends the heavies round! I'll probably be buying LNIND on CD, 7" and 12", as well as Songs from the Deep Forest on CD.

Is HMV the best place to buy from then?

[Guinness]

Doesn't really matter where you buy them from... So long as you buy them the position wll go up! :wink:

Come on regulars, guests and hidden members... OUR DUKE NEEDS YOU!

I like it that you guys realise how seriously I'm taking this.......

.....I've already sent polite notices to memebers ofyour immediate families :evil:

[Eoin]

Heehee I like it! Yes I too shall be buying all formats available of the singles and any other releases, just cant get enough of that Dukey goodness :wink:

[helen]

Love the poster, Guinness!

[Guinness]

:wink:

[duke of hal]

Been to Virgin to put the single in front of the James Morrison single in the 'new releases' rack.....it's all about tactics!

[davelee]

what's this limited edition cd everyone keeps talking about and why can't any HMVs in London find it on their system???

xxxxx

[duke of hal]

I don't think it's another limited edition cd, just that it's limited edition......that's all :wink:

[uncleneil]

Just got the CD single in HMV in Belfast - was the last one on the shelf!

[SBIGGIN]

Hi guys...

All formats bought through 'Recordstore' but popped into my local HMV (The Fort) in Birmingham...(Duke of hal will know it).....Nothing stocked....listed as being released last week and no sign of it being even ordered! Poor show HMV! However they do redeem themselves a little by listing the album in there 'Listen to section'

Glad the rest of you had successes!

Same story here, I went into HMV and erm another big name type place, sorry cant think if it now and they dont have it and said they wont be ordering it in. How is an artist supposed to get his name out there and get more people interested in his music if music shops wont stock his music?! There was plenty of Justin gobshoite and the likes in stock though...typical. Must get a hold of mymums cc and order allll formats online :wink:

Incidently though, does anyone in Dublin know where I can pick up the single release? I'll be in town later....

[Guinness]

Personally I buy half my life on the web!

It's a excellent and vast resource for anything your looking for in the world!

Get a laser card claire! :wink:

[Eoin]

I know I know I should...but I dont trust myself even with that! Man I'm crap with money :cry: :roll:

[Sarah]

if ya cant get it from a shop buy a couple of versions off itunes,that'll boost his chart position and its only 79p a song! there's:

the single and quiet revolutionary
the ep with glimmer girl, from clare to here,1868 version of last night
the ep with stumble and fall and glimmer girl

i think i should win the singles competition purly for the fact that on Monday i had to plough my way through a cradle of filth instore to get to the singles in Virgin Tottenham Court Rd, London as none of the other record stores in the area had recieved their copies in yet!

[Guinness]

Don't know about the uk, but here's one for the irish album charts...

http://www.dukespecial.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=394

thank Duke of Hal for the link

[wickedwitch]

i've looked through that and cant see anything anywhere!!!cansome1 jus tell me!!!!

[thesneakybandit]

that link is for the irish charts where duke special hit number 31 on the week of release... then dropped to number 75 on week two.

the uk charts are only available online upto number 40. duke special have not made the top 40 so there's no info online!

[Fintan]
