Mid Week Chart
.... and a-ha are at number....
Oh, they are not on the top 40. I thought the volume of CDs might be sufficient. I was wrong. Still, there should be no surprise - there was zero promotion to support the release as always.
Why the decision to release the last single 25 years after the 1985 Take on me UK release? No one has noticed. I guess the album will score better as it will have some promotion.

Where are the downloads?
I think this battle for the charts will be won or lost on the strength of CD single sales.
There is no position on the iTunes chart currently.
CD Singles
HMV - number 1
Amazon - number 2
Fingers crossed that the volume of CDS being shifted is high.
It looks like any promotion will be in support of the album rather than the single.

Available Now
The single is now available on 2 track CD single or download. To be honest, a top 20 placement would be a real success in this day and age. I will be waiting for the mid-week chart with crossed fingers.
Remember to keep an eye out for a-ha promotion. There will be live music from a-ha on Ken Bruce, Radio 2 towards the end of the month.
