^ haha thats so true. I swear us Delta fans always have to assume everything :) . But I think she was on tv becuase shes now up to #33 on itunes. But then again if she was I would have thought her NZ fans would have posted about it.

Forgot to update this last week. It dropped 22 places to #85 and this week it's just hanging on at #97 & still double platinum. Might be it's last week in the Top 100 but 21 weeks isn't too bad.

As expected, SOTOTW has dropped out the ARIA chart this week.

Not a bad effort 6 months later! I'm proud of this song... it has become one of if not my favourite Delta song!

So let me FALL

I WON'T break

I'll take my HEART to my grave

I will BREATHE under the water

You've FORSAKEN the daughter here

But I wont GIVE UP on you

No I won't give up on ME

It had a great run. It's a good song so I'm happy it performed well.

It has had a great run and I feel it might emerge back in the Top 100 for a week or so with the album release, and then again with the 2012 ARIAs :)

iTunes Australia have put up a best-sellers of 2012 list, and "Sitting" is #44!

Yep, it's #43 now. I copied down the chart earlier, and it's definitely different now. For one thing, there only seems to be 98 songs now.

That's weird.

Either way, #43/44 is great!

Edit: I looked over the chart and they've removed "Turn Me On" and "Play Hard", which were #39 and #98 respectively on the original list. Strange.

That's pretty good, Wish You Were Here wasn't there by any chance was it? Let me guess Gangnam Style or Battle Scars was #1?

Actually Call Me Maybe was first, followed by Battle Scars then Gangnam Style. Good news about SOTOTW :)

Honestly, I hate the one hit wonder phenomenon's like Psy. When we look back at that song in twenty years, we'll wonder what on earth we were thinking, where as SOTOTW etc will hold their own over time. :)

^True so annoying.

Its funny how the top 3 hits on itunes were all released at the same time at Delta's singles. Call Me maybe- same time as SOT, Battle Scars- DWABH, WYWH- Gangnam Style.

Or it will remain a classic like the "Macarena" while nobody outside of Delta's fanbase will remember "Sitting on Top of the World".

Sorry.

I was waiting for that to be said. :)
Thankyou for creating a balanced conversation. Probably just my bias from hearing Gangnam 4238490324093284903290482390489032849032804832084204238049238 times recently.

Gangnam Style won't be a classic, it's a horrible song. People will remember it but no one will honestly like it. I do think people outside Delta's fanbase will remember SOTOTW too, it was #2 hit after all :)
