Yeah but Lighters has way more swearing than LTWLY. Therefore it will be played less on the radio.


They censor the songs on the radio though, so the swearing doesn't matter.

And in the UK this time after LTWYL was released it was already in the top 10, whilst Lighters isn't in the top 40 yet.

That was kinda my point. No one wants to hear a song full of bleeps, especially that long part full of cock and prick. That's why they will play it less often on the radio, in my opinion.[/quote]

Yeah, it might hurt the airplay a bit. I always thought that could've been one of the reasons No Love didn't do well on radio (I was never expecting No Love to be a massive radio hit, but I honestly heard it like once a month, which just wasn't enough, so it did terrible in the charts).

It's climbing well in the UK now. A pop group called Take That released their album the same day, and all their songs were ahead of Lighters yesterday, but now all their songs are falling down the chart and Lighters is still climbing, which is good.

Lighters is also top 20 on world iTunes.

#15 now in the US. Climbing fast. Soon as it cracks the top 10, it'll gain a lot more exposure.
Imagine if Marshall had never picked up the pen...

That was pretty obvious. I'll be already happy if it goes #1 for 1 week.

^ LOL that probably aint gonna happen. By the time they decide to release the video and make it an official single, the song will probably be like #60 or something on iTunes and most people will have already purchased it, so the vid won't have much effect.

Really the vid should come out in like two weeks max, for it to have a positive impact.

This is the iTunes generation. You have to capitalise quick on music, or it becomes yesterdays news.

#9 now :coffee:
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.
