Predict Crazy Tonight's UK chart position!

[Jarvio]

In the UK, the single GOYB got to number 12, and Magnificent got to number 42.

Predict the UK chart position for IGCIIDGCT.

My prediction: Number 27

 

[andyuk]

Not even being played on Radio 1! not even made the "C" list!

so not any high hopes! Magnificent was played all the time as it was on the 'A list'

 

[andyuk]

there is also confusion on the release date as i have heard that it was August 14th but Amazon etc say the release date is Sept 7th!

Which might explain why its not on Radio 1 playlist yet!

 

[KUEFC09U2]

I predict it will hit radio 1 and other radio stations next week.

Oh dear. Not a good sign then.
I hope we don't get another flop like Magnificent.

I would have thought the management would have learnt from Magnificent's failure, and put more of an effort in promoting IGCIIDGCT.

I guess we'll see...

 

[The_acrobat]

Somewhere in the top 60... not cracking top 40 though. even worse than mag

 

[Danny Boy]

The videos are getting a little airplay and they have the BlackBerry ad. If they release on August 17, U2 will be in the UK and I think they will make Top 10.

If they really and truly delay until September 7, then I think the tour buzz will have worn off a bit, and they will be lucky to make Top 20.

But I do think this single get's a little bump from the tour being in the UK in late August.

 

[Yahweh]

24

 

[Jarvio]

I sure hope it makes the top 40.
It would be tragic for 2 U2 singles in a row to miss the top 40

 

[hedge]

47

 

[Tallarico]

not in top 40

 

[Tallarico]

i read (but i don't remember where, sorry!) that i'll go crazy... will be release for the UK's radio only in august, when 360° tour will arrive in Uk, Scotland and Galles!

 

[wolbersu2]

It will not chart. Magnificent, one of U2's strongest songs ever, failed to make the top 10, so this single will not even make it to the best 75 songs.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Magnificent had nothing in the way of promotion, and i mean NOTHING, Crazy has the blackberry ad AND the tour to help it,

 

[vaz02]

20 - 30 I will punt for.

 

[fedeu2]

Magnificent had nothing in the way of promotion, and i mean NOTHING, Crazy has the blackberry ad AND the tour to help it,

Yeah, and four different videos. Two of them have already surfaced. I love the one with the live version in Barcelona. In contrast, Magnificent´s video was nondescript.

 

[andyuk]

anyone have the official release date?

 

[Irishteen]

Crazy has already hit 150 in the UK itunes chart and has now dropped down to 250, looks like the ad isn't having much of an effect

 

[Sergiodino]

 

[alanah]

Is it important?. Well, maybe yes.. oh a change of heart comes slow.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Maybe not on the single, but its had an affect on the album.

 

[Flaming Friar Sr]

my guess is no. 1. why not? come on peeps, a bit of optimism won't hurt

 

[Jarvio]

my guess is no. 1. why not? come on peeps, a bit of optimism won't hurt

It wouldn't, but for it to make the top 10 would be a miracle, nevermind number 1

 

[macphisto54]

I wonder what would happen if the label released the single on disc with some b-sides? Or in a maxi version like 'Please'. Top 10 for sure if that happened.

...any thoughts on that tracklisting? inspiring? given what could be released for me not really... did anyone tell the smart-alecs at UMG that the Somerville Theatre gig is easily available to almost anyone who wants it in excellent soundboard quality? nah thought not...

Chart? 41-55 I guess...

 

[andyuk]

what is the official release date of the single?

 

[thelaj]

Can't believe there is no live remix version from the tour!

Also, has it been renamed "Crazy Tonight" or will it carry the full title?

 

[Irishteen]

Maybe not on the single, but its had an affect on the album.

Yeah it definitely has had but I have low hopes for the single, I think it might get just into the top 75

More of the same s***. Uninteresting as always.

 

[Jarvio]

I agree, I'm dissapointed in the b-sides.
As a b-sides fan, I have been dissapointed in the b-sides for such a long time now.
Last time we got new songs was on the Vertigo single.

I want new songs.
Surely they have enough left over that didn't make the album?! What about Winter?
They piss me off sometimes!
