It'll get knocked off, it's too weak as a single.

It's not weak it just hasn't been available in alot of the record shops for casual listeners to buy. Your average music buyer probably isn't too familiar with Townsend Records. Great shame, two fab songs totally ignored.

I think it was a good choice as a single personally, it's just not worked out right that's all. The best way to look at this is it has helped push the album as sales are around 6,000 this week and that's great news. That's nearly about as much as it sold in its 3rd week of release roughly so that's positive news indeed.

It will be touch and go by the sound of it. Probably somewhere between 39 and 45. Does Twitter update the chart day-by-day or something?

I saw the video for SKON on MTV quite a lot for quite a few weeks when I'd flip onto the channel every now and then.
