Please try to predict how many hits will have the new album (Top 20 singles).
We had a poll here a few weeks ago and people are expecting 2-3 singles from this new album... so how many great hits do you predict?

If two singles are released before the album, we will have 3 hits:

1 modest hit
1 big hit
1 small hit

...but there will probably be just the one single before the album, then we'l have 2 hits:

1 big hit
1 modes/small hit

2 in the top 20. Both will come in at about number 15 then drop like a stone out of the charts never to be heard of again

3 big hits. Even one number one in the top 10.

Will you get a new number one, Neil?

No, I don't think we will, unless we make a record that appeals to a very young audience and I don't think doing that is really a priority for us now

How can we know?????

We haven't even heard a demo of those singles...

You are talking about expectations... not about predictible results.

My expectation is that they are gonna improve the sales of Nightlife & Release... I cannot dare to say anymore.

3 top 20 hits and I think (I hope!) 1 or 2 top 10 hits...

It's quite ironic to hear people calling e.g a song that reaches #19 a Top 20 hit!

I think they need a top 3, at least.

No, a top 2, at least.

no great hits, possibly top 5 for the first single if released in a quiet week

1 top 10, 2 top 20s...the album will surely be a top 10

ofcourse everything depends on single #1 and knowing their singles choices..I shall be praying very hard
