No 49 is poor. :( Although it was looking a lot worse earlier in the week. Could have been so much higher with a little more effort though. :x

Even a moderate amount of money spent on promotion would have made a huge difference.

Very very dissappointed with AATW over this :( :evil:

I'm actually surprised to see it at no. 49! I was expecting something around 60/70. It's still utter crap, and it could have done soooo much better with the right advertising. And it's unfortunate it didn't make top 40 because it would have been played then and more people would hear it.

I just hope AATW will learn from how poorly this has done and change their act for the next release, that's if there is one!

I am too Sandra....gutted to be honest. I was so hoping for a UK tour and I thought the single doing well would help towards this. I certainly hope this useless company get off their asses and get their act together to promote the Album or I think all hopes of a UK Scooter Tour are sunk. :evil: :evil: :evil:
It's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice.

Well, singles do seem to go up in the charts now quite regularly, whereas they didn't used to much in the UK, so maybe it will rise a bit next week. But it certainly won't be anywhere near as successful as we would have hoped at the time of the UK tour. :(

Oh, these record companies...It would be so fine if Edel/Kontor was a worldwide record company so that they could promote each Scooter song all over the world.

What I don't understand: some of you mentioned that "T?" had been played a lot of times on "The Box". So there was promotion. And the clubland tour was further promotion - so why this bad position.

By the way: you shouldn't give up all your hopes - in Germany Scooter have ALWAYS high chart entries because of their big posse here. But in the UK or in other countries they first have to convince people to buy the song. If you listen to a new song by a band you are not a fan of on tv or on the radio, you usually won't buy the single at once. You will firstly listen to it a few times and after a few days or weeks you'll buy it. So "T?" could receive better positions in the follwoing weeks

Maybe you simply should try to accept that not the whole world is Scooter fanatic.

I was just going to say that myself.

This single could have been big, if more people knew it was out, it's better than September - Cry For You, by a long way, and that made the Top 40.

Largely helped by an advert me thinks, Scooter didn't get one.

I think it could just get into the UK Top 40 this week, which would force Radio 1 to play it.

When a remix of Toca's Mircale makes the top 20 it makes you wonder what has gone wrong.


I know. :(

Talk about a f*ck up. :evil:

Scooter aren't even on the list of artists at the side on the AATW site now either.


Sounds like cease and desist to me. Which wouldn't be surprising given some of the criticism I've read about the tune and it's video...
We started in 1994....in 2012 we're still on the case!!!

Because nowhere said that the single was released - I even saw a question last week on the AATW forum asking if it had been released yet because the person could not find it anywhere.

Its been played on the music channels for a few weeks, but it would have been helpful if somewhere before and after it had been played they gave a release date, or even "Out Now on CD" at the beginning or end

Well, on the German edition it is, so it's very possible that it also is on the UK edition, although the artwork will be changed I saw in another topic, so I hope that it will have another picture, but I have the feeling they are going to change only the booklet and the rest will be the same......
