hey are not cocky? @kunni van scooter take the line from sugary dip "i said i just dont care who im gonna RIP comingg on through im like a sugary dip" i would say that was cocky lol but i love it

With "they are not cocky" I meant that they are still down-to-earth referring to their personal characters. The lyrics of H.P. are somehow different - you´re right here

The lyrics are meant for the music world, not to the fans. So to the music world they are cocky in Sugary Dip, but not to their fans.

I think it's for the fans too Because there are so much cryings about the rips here and there ) I have an own Scooter forum so I know what I'm talking about :-D

I'd say TOO and DDE were very good singles, they're just different than what people consider the "typical" Scooter.
TOO is slower and more house-inspired (according to those who know more than me) and DDE is more into typical dubstep, but I would say both singles are good and could have reacher higher than they did, especially DDE.

However, Scooter f'ucked up by running little promo - maybe thinking the name Scooter could do the main promo alone?
I don't know, it's something we won't get an answer about. But 1 thing is true, TOO and DDE have had way too little promo, and the release date of DDE should have been at least 1 week prior to the album release.

I believe TOO and DDE are good singles, they just failed to reach high because of the lack of promo and attention.
I think a single doesn't HAVE to be fast, catchy and party-like to be successful, it just need the right amount of promo to make sure as many as possible hear it.

+1 Totally right The bad chart succes doesnt change the fact that the singles itself were great ones, so true!

+1 - they were both excellent singles

Charts mean nothing. They're just a tool to tell how popular the song is with the masses, and who many have purchased it within a specific period of time. It doesn't say anything about how good the song is.

I completely agree!
Unfortunately though a release has to sell to make money

I really thought all the promo regarding Vicky Leandros and Scooter + the fact it's more the little older previously succesful party-track sound + the fact it was played on The DOme 60 and clearly loved by the crowd + it being a rather succesful FB video = back to succes, atleast back to the top30 again. But well, it seems this track also doesnt work. So We had now TOO, DDE, and now CB all in different styles and all seemingly not working chartwise...very strange. It seems it's not the style that is the problem (becaused that changed from single to single), nor the litle promo (DDE) or bigger promo (CB)... but what in that case....

EDIT:
Well, ok, the radio edit is not really better or so than the album edit, but even so, it should sell as seperate single for people that only want CB and not the album. But well, somehow I get the feeling we should see singles only as album promo and not count to much on the sale of the singles, but only count on it it will help the album. But well, the problem is that when a single doesnt sell well, it isnt really album promo, because it's played to little because of being sold to little. A circle is created, of which there's no way out.......

In no case are the guys living on the singles, even if they did well. There's very little money in single releases these days. It's, as said, more of a way of promoting the artist and the newest album. As Scooterworld well said, there's a circle, which either goes up or down. At the moment they're going down, there's no denying that. But with a hit they would be going up, where the single would push the album, and so on. However -- it's all relative. Most of my other favourite bands have made huge discographies and have never been in the charts. Most songs never be in top 100. It shouldn't stop Scooter, unless they especially want to be seen in mainstream charts -- which they tend to, yes. But if they see it's not happening right now, I don't think they're ready to quit just like that for no reason.

As for this single, there was some promo, but it wasn't that much in the end, and the video was released too late once again. But the song itself is nothing special... And I'm sure the lack of b-sides is showing as well. Before people knew they were one of their best tracks and were looking forward to getting at least a good b-side no matter what the single, but no when there's no that...

maybe we see now the dead of Scooter...

I'm not sure how the guys react about last chart positions. There are artists who say "I don't care" and continue the work. Other artists leaved the stage.

I hope your first sentence is wrong. But as you say, it all depends on how they react on the recent chart problems.......

People are fed up with Scooter. Only the fans like them now. As much i hate IAB. I really do hope they release this song as a single. Just to confirm the obvious. They are done! Scooter are so cold even Antarctic don't want them.

+1. Keep in mind that the album itself did pretty well (#15). I doubt that another badly charting single will be the end of Scooter.

I agree - and have to say I have been worried - but i hope they never give up

So much speculations about this...why this and why that...while all can be said in just 3 simple words - NEEDS...MORE...PROMO!

According to the Media Control Facebook page's comment on my post from a few minutes ago, C'est Bleu didn't make the charts

but i hope they never give up

So do I - it would be a desaster for me - I need Scooter my whole life
