I've ended up being quite into this. It won't let up over here!
Her second UK single, Glow, is being released in a couple of weeks and I'd say it's more US-ready than Ghost. I wouldn't be surprised if this hit #1 as well, it's great.

The song is very far from top 100 in airplay right now, and after a good start on itunes is surrounding 500, so it will need a good push from the label. Hopefully it will receive a good amount of adds

This seems promising for a brand new artist. This is a tune. I'm expecting good things.

Why is this so slow to take off in US ?? . It's massive in UK and Australia , and climbing in European charts . I thought the radio adds would have been much higher .

Why is this so slow to take off in US ?? . It's massive in UK and Australia , and climbing in European charts . I thought the radio adds would have been much higher . It's a really good, radio-friendly song, but it's not disruptive or instantly memorable. Not the kind of thing you'd expect to get 100 first week adds or anything. Plus, this is the response several Columbia songs have been receiving as of late. The first two weeks of adds are reasonably on par with those for songs like "American Dream," "I Will Never Let You Down," etc. I have not been wowed by the Columbia promo effort this year, particularly when it comes to out-of-the-gate launches (Blame might prove to be an exception). That all said, it's quickly racking up spins, and it was one of the ten most-added in its second week. This one definitely still has a chance.

ADDS ANALYSIS:
Its biggest market right now is Las Vegas. I do not think this add will be enough to draw new markets immediately. If a big market adds it next week, it could be a difference-maker.

I hope this is another "Bleeding Love" situation where the beginning wasn't indicative of the massive success it eventually had. I remember seeing an interview with Ryan Tedder saying that the PD's said Bleeding Love wasn't going to happen in the US. They couldn't have been more wrong!

Nice to see Ella Henderson breaking the Top 50! Still way down in the #240s on iTunes though....but to be fair there hasn't been much in the way if promo...

I think the airplay will affect the sales soon. And probably she will do some promo too. Generally (there are very few exceptions) make your song a hit in the USA (if you are not american) takes a good while. And we have recent examples of big UK and european hits (Rather be, Hideway or Waves) that take forever to start to climb. Am i wrong or Stay with me are more the exception than the rule

Maybe that was the reason the song was so high on itunes. There was a time at the beginning of the release Ghost was top 200 (wich was spectacular for a song from a new artist without getting any airplay)
