UPDATE EDIT

ARIA report arrived today 20/3/07 - NOML is down from #50 to #66 after 16 weeks in the Top 100 overall singles charts.

State by state breakdown of TWJ sales

NSW - up from 25 to 24; Vic/Tas - down from 23 to 25; QLD - down from 22 to 23; SA/NT - steady at 22; WA up from 21 to 18!

UP a spot?! How cool, thanks for the info!

And farewell NOML, you did well!

[dededom]

Normally, an album selling this well would be up to the second single release by now.

Here's a thought, why not just turn the CD around on the shelves and make "Come to Me" the new single release ha ha.

[winterlong]

bwah!

Did notice that NOML is still #49 in physical single sales....

*looks down at straws she is grasping at *

[dededom]

*clutches straws with Winter*

Damn, May 14 is just soooo far away.

[astrokath]

Um, is that the single release date? And when did we find this out, if it is??

[winterlong]

As far as I know, this thread: www.dleithonline.proboards101.com/index.cgi?board=talk&action=display&thread=1173047958&page=1 explains this date....and in summary, its not official, and the date WILL be released to us


But then again, I'm often the last to know these things

[dededom]

Yes, that thread is certainly the official position viz Damien's management. Still, I notice the date is still being shown as May 14 and orders are still being taken
www.bigwentertainment.com.au/product/untitled_2007_single_755449_236083.html

But whatever be the true position, it presumably won't be any earlier than mid May, and so the point remains IT IS A LOOOONG TIME to wait between November 27 2006 and some date in late May or June 2007 ...

[winterlong]

yup, it is a long to wait....but then again, have any other Idol winners had to also schedule in a birth amongst their first releases?


an interesting note is that the Big W site mentioned also lists Dean Geyers single as being released May 14...whereas rumours around the Idol sites put the release date as much earlier....some as early as the very end of March...

[dededom]

Yeh, maybe it's because "British super-producer and songwriter Tom Nichols" has been cracking the whip and/or wants to get out of the country quick smart - see www.news.com.au/sundaytelegraph/story/0,22049,21313043-5009160,00.html - and Dean hasn't had to travel up and down the East Coast singing his heart out over the last few weeks like Damien, LOL!

[astrokath]

OK, I get it. If it is anything like book release dates, it is very approximate.
Thanks!

[Trilly]

single. I want the single. *stamps foot*....*sob*....*sighs*

That's just brilliant - obviously people are still discovering the amazing talent that is Damien Leith

[sunshine]

It's amazing TWJ is still selling so well - proof that Damien keeps attracting new fans every day.
I'm not surprised Jess's CD fell out of the Top 10. Without a new single and radio airplay, she was bound not to chart as well as Damien did with TWJ. I'll blame SonyBMG for this: they should have given Jess some time to record a debut CD, instead of attempting to make some money off the back of the success of TWJ.
Sorry to say I'm not remotely interested in Dean Geyer's new single, whatever it is!
I'm hanging out for new Damien Leith magic!

[dmac]

;D Maybe his live appearances have ignited interest in purchasing TWJ and Big W has been selling it for $15 ;D and selling out so we wait for reorders . Sadly, I will be away for both his releases....but am sure I'll be able to get the new songs when back ;D
