With the new single being available to buy in a month or so and the first radio play tommorow, that only gives time for people to rip the mp3 and as a result, probably end up not buying it. Some might say the people who get it for free would do so anyway but leaving it a month does not do it any good. Releasing it a month after radio play is only for the shitty new rap artists and boybands who are on radio 1 non stop .
It might be played a bit on Radio 2 and Noel is unlikely to do much on TV in the next month. It's not a month of promotion, its a month of it being out there for free.
I think the management (That Noel and Beady Eye have both kept) is shocking. Their promotional methods are about 15 years out of date.
The release of the first Beady Eye single was handled rediculously bad, giving it a scattered release. It charted at 31 when it was download only and then about 50 a couple of weeks later when the vinyls came out. Then hardly any promotion Of Millionaire, no radio play, no new b-side = #71.
They need to realise this isn't the 90s anymore, Noel isn't getting any younger, Beady Eye aren't going to sell records by putting their name on the cover and change their ways or both artists should just dump the shitty management.

Single sales aren't important, it's the promotion the singles gives you that matters!
It wont matter if people rip it off YouTube, as long as the song is popular and gets lots of attention/airplay. Noel will earn 90% of his income touring.

Im not worried about how much money he makes, it would be nice for him to do well in the charts and unless this song is a new Wonderwall or DLBIA, i cant see it being played much on the radio |

i'll be ripping it from the youtube video but i'll also be buying it when it comes out. like to do my bit for the cause. i mean, after all this guy has given us ALOT of amazing music over the years, and is the reason that i, and im sure many others, picked up a guitar. he'll make plenty of cash with or without airplay.

Yea the shock of the lightning was played about a month before it was available to buy and lost out to Pink. I think a week/2 weeks of airplay before release is plenty

its A listed on Radio 2 so it'll be played enough to gather sales for a top 40 chart.
but the thing is in this day and age EVERY single that is released gets illegally downloaded, even the big mainstream numbers 1s like Lady Gaga etc, so even if alot of people illegally download TDOYAM it will still chart well, id predict so anyway.

It's been a listed already?? Don't think Shock Of The Lightning got A listed until a few weeks after it was first airplayed if I remember correctly  it was listed, but didn't make the A list for a while! |

charts don't mean a damn thing anymore. when lady gag is on the chart, the best thing to do is stay away from anything that has her name on it.

Seriously! Noel doesn't give a flip about the charts and neither should you. Its going to debut better than Beady Eye and then plummet. Its the way of the world these days and espc for a 40+ year old man. Noel has so many revenue streams available to him in his position that the only reason charts matter is for pride. If its one of "those" songs that takes off on its own, who knows? Those songs are very rare in every respect these days. |

charts don't mean a damn thing anymore. Charts have meant the same as they always have - and they're always dominated by young (ie. under 30-year-old) artists. |

I agree with what you're all saying about the Noel not being dependent on it and promotion, but I'm really surprised the record company/management are still releasing it a MONTH after its airplay. You'd think they'd have learnt their lesson after what happened with the TSOTL single, but whatever. In the end, we get the music and that's what matters.

yes you can't download a tour... or you can't download seeing someone in person... and the atmosphere.
I think he's doing just fine... get a single... single goes to radio, album in 2 months after that...
who cares... if the single is big, it will fuel a need to buy the record.
I'm happy with everything.
