Thanks Janie, it seems it's a much more popular tune/video than the last couple of singles - not that I am surprised at that (always said releasing IMY was a mistake - or it should have been released in time for Valentine's Day!!!).

Tempted though I am by the HMV site, I will wait and buy my CDs in store - the post here is so cr*p, it'll be quicker that way! Hopefully buying the first week, they will be ?2.99 instead of ?3.99 each! And it makes sure the sales figures are counted in that crucial first week too. I hate the way the chart system works now, but hey - that's the system and so I'll work within it! LOL! That's just my preference though, I am not saying everyone ought to do the same!

Anyway, that's a good price for anyone who has to buy online especially though - overseas folks for instance [img]smile.gif[/img]

Let's just hope we actually get to see the TOTP performance this time, eh? *growls at BBC* LOL!

Sue, I have a feeling that Crush is going to be much more successful for Darren than IMY. IMY, although a very sweet song, I think was far too weak to be released as a single. I am sure the impetus for us to buy IMY was the addition of WYWTB as a b-side - well it was for me anyway [img]wink.gif[/img]

Oh I agree with you on all counts there, Janie!

Well that's the main reason I bought it Janie! Then of course they announce WYWTB is going to be on the Australian single too - typical. Anyway I also got In Your Eyes, a nice poster, the IMY video and delivery from the UK in under 2 weeks, so no complaints from me!!!!
