It will hit the 100000 views today so Nicky might be happy

Their was no promotion for the song itself: no radio or tv-sessions. No big interviews. It seems they're struggling with the dates for the promotion of this album: misplaced tour-dates etc. So quie logic the song disappears in the charts.

Let us address the real issue here. Embrace managed to score a top 5 album this week. How the hell is Embrace still a thing that gets that high in the charts in 2014?

If Futurology fails to match that, it's officially time to walk Nicky to the bridge.

I think Futurology will match that, but as yet have no explanation for the success of Embrace. Wait, is it their comeback album?

Embrace? Top 5 album? 2014?

...Embrace?!

--

Surely Walk made the Top 200. Can't fathom a gap of 123+ places for consecutive initial singles from two albums only nine months apart unless there were indeed hiccups with the marketing this week.
