I just watched that and really enjoyed it.

Unfortunately I have some reservations to listening to her songs. I just feel to old.

MeMyselfAndI 31-05-2010 10:09 PM

i loved her performance

but why has her album sales dropped so much? im really sad because it was doing so well and now shes at #36 at the charts on like her 4th week so shes not even gunna go platnum. Why did JLS do so well and not her. (i love JLS)
and once dropped loads too :(. :(

I hope she gets another album deal :D

Just released the album has only sold 52,000 :sad:
doubt it will ever get 100,000 whilst Leona got almost 2million and JLS, Cheryl and Alexandra all almost got 1million

Why is she so much below them all :sad:

I think the X Factor completely crucified her by giving her all those strange inflections on the show.

Billy 31-05-2010 10:48 PM

Whoever said it wont get to 100,000 need to ****. She released it less than a month ago and its at 60,000+ Look at Ellie Goulding, completely dropped like a stone at first but now it's doing rather well.

Smithy 31-05-2010 10:57 PM

Its a shame she didn't get as long an interview as the black guy and the other one

The album has sold over 60,000, which, when in the months where album sales are at the lowest, is fine.

Baring in mind she's only released one single too, most people wait till they've heard a few before actually purchasing the album. Ellie Goulding did the same, completely dropped, yet her album is now back in the top 15.

There's no way Diana WON'T sell 100,000 copies of SFTTCT.

Leona was promoted to DEATH.
That's the only reason why. She was marketed as the new 'diva'. Mariah/Whitney/Christina/Kelly C/Beyonce were all on hiatus at the time iirc so they took that opportunity to promote her. Some might argue she was overexposed [I'd certainly say she was, I've only really started to like her since Echo]

Diana however, has the issue of getting lost in the barrage of 'unique'/'quirky' females around atm, like Ellie Goulding, Florence + The Machine, Taylor Swift, Marina & The Diamonds, Ke$ha etc.

Plus she hasn't really had THAT much promotion, compared to JLS/Cheryl/Leona/Alex who all got X-Factor performances which has proven to boost sales, and their albums were all released later in the year [when albums tend to sell the most due to XF-promotion/Xmas]. I'd assume that Diana will be given an XF performance with the third single, and therefore album sales should soar a bit then.

i hope Dianas third single isyou'll never get to heaven :love:
and also leona sales went up with i got you being released but i got you was not promoted very well considering the video got released 1 week before release dateeeeeeee

i really want leona to release outta my head :(

Smithy 01-06-2010 01:09 PM

I don't think she'll get on XF unfortunately, if they did have her back they'd have her back with another XF finalist who is doing ok.

But i don't think so :(

MeMyselfAndI 01-06-2010 01:10 PM

Diana will be back same as Leona JLS and Alexandra.
:)
as there is normally 2 performances
1 should always be an X Factor Person and the other a famous person

xDramatick 01-06-2010 01:11 PM

Her third single NEEDS to be a ballad, I'd prefer 'Four Leaf Clover' or 'Notice', but it has to be a ballad. If she releases too many uptempos, she'll get criticism.

I think her XF performance should be quite subtle. Just her, on stage, singing.

Billy 02-06-2010 03:27 PM

Video for TBWML.

Don't like it, it's too cheap :/

Jords 02-06-2010 03:33 PM

Im not too keen on it either because it looks so cheap :/

MrGaryy 02-06-2010 03:43 PM

love it, ****s all over once. especially the ending, it's great <3 cultivates a far better image of her than Once did imo.

Matt 02-06-2010 03:47 PM

I love it. They've done the whole real-life/cartoon thing loads better than Kesha did.

xDramatick 17-06-2010 08:21 AM

can't wait for the new track!

alc09 17-06-2010 08:37 AM

Wouldn't 'the girl who murders songs' be a more fitting name?

Stu 17-06-2010 08:49 AM

You know I only came in this thread because 'Alc09' was the most recent poster.

It were worth it.

:joker:

Billy 17-06-2010 02:23 PM

^^ Really? Cos it was a pretty ****e joke.

Anyways I won't be posting in here anymore, I really really dislike Diana now.

Smithy 17-06-2010 02:28 PM

:shocked:

Why?

WHAAAAAAT!?!?
whyyy?!
what's happened?!

Billy 17-06-2010 04:15 PM

Basically me and my friend went to her concert, waited for 8hrs straight and she came out of her car, and we were like "can we take a picture or get an autograph" there was only SIX people there and she was like "yeah sure just wait a moment till i put my bags and **** in" and we re like yay okay, getting rly excited and she didn't come back out. Not even as though it was close to the concert it was like 4pm, and she didnt even send someone out to apologise. Oh and she snuck out the back afterwards too.

It probably doesnt sound like a big deal, but when you're standing for 8hrs straight waiting to see someone you effectively Idolise and she comes out and ruins the entire illusion of her being this nice person etc when in reality she's a bint who has clearly forgotten who got her to where she is in the first place.

alc09 18-06-2010 07:46 AM

Meh, I'm sure you be knocking one out over her again in a matter of days.

Bit of a harsh thing for her to do.

xDramatick 18-06-2010 08:18 AM

That was a bit unfair of her to do, but it can be difficult for musicians to get back out when they're inside. I've read loads of accounts of musicians saying they'll be back, but don't - usually put down to being busy/dragged around inside. There's a lot to do in four hours. They'll need to soundcheck to start with - that can take a good few hours. She's also probably got stuff she needs to discuss with staff/managers etc.
I don't get how you were waiting 8 hours though? That's mental. I'd be mad too... but then I wouldn't wait 8 hours LOL.

There was an incident similar at the venue I went to [Borderline, pre-album tour] where a bunch of her fans waited for her but she walked past them. She revealed on twitter that she had a friends & family waiting for her elsewhere and she was pretty much being pushed towards the car by security & staff, and everyone was shouting things at her so she wasn't too sure what was going on.

Perhaps tweet her? or post on one of the official DV forums? They're full of delusional children but they definitely know their stuff.

Billy 18-06-2010 01:36 PM

Oh I did, I tweeted her and asked why, as did the people who were with me, but nothing. If she had sent someone out to say that she wasnt coming back it would have been fine, but there was a man standing and we asked when she was coming out and he said "she didn't mention anything about coming out", and it was just so annoying because she did it before at the Hamilton gig and she just seems really unlikeable to me now, which is sad cos I loved her <3 We had told her that we had waited so long and she was like oh yeah I'll come back out and stuff. I mean even the band and the support act came out and spoke to people, I don't see how she couldn't have, considering there were six people waiting, not as if it was a queue of a hundred.

CaraRawr 18-06-2010 02:51 PM

Quite disappointed to hear that about Diana, always thought she seemed really nice and I'm not really a fan. :/

MrGaryy 18-06-2010 05:26 PM

-still loves her-

I never really get people who let the artist as a person effect their opinion of them. Like I only support my favourite artists because I love their music and image and what they do. Christina Aguilera for example, I'm pretty sure is not really that nice of a person but it doesn't really phase me. Lily Allen is obviously a bit of a twat. I am quite surprised Diana did that but it doesn't change how I feel about her really.

No offence at all to Billy, I'm just making my point btw.

Billy 18-06-2010 06:21 PM

It wasn't meant to affect your opinion of her...

I didn't just like Diana's music though, the whole appeal for her was her personality, I was obsessed with her since her audition on XF and stuff so the music wasn't what made me like her really.

Billy 28-06-2010 01:35 AM

I'm back haha, I gave her another chance hehe.

MrGaryy 28-06-2010 04:09 AM

<3

xDramatick 28-06-2010 08:29 AM

<3

MrGaryy 13-07-2010 03:44 PM

She's live on The Five O Clock Show on C4 in 15 minutes in case anyone cares :)

xDramatick 13-07-2010 03:45 PM

-may just tune in-
I haven't listened to Diana that much recently, Adam Lambert's overtaken her again in my top artists on last.fm haha
