1D will be on iCarly in the spring and Nickelodeon just played their clip once.. So it's not like their being promoted there yet...
They don't have to get that much promoted, just like Tokio Hotel, Justin Bieber and Jonas Bros. there is some kind of whirlwind which brings such "hypes" to teens worldwide at some point. I see loads of (little) girls tweeting about them, add the fact that 1D's videos get spread on Facebook as the flu and you can see why they can get such high positions without doing much promo.
That's true!! But I just replied to OP as what he said seemed like they are being promoted right now, which is not true
yeah I agree

I was talking about One Direction's video for What makes You Beautiful it premiered during iCarly. I shouldve been more clear. :oops:

I was looking on Twitter and all the tween girls were promoting it for them. :lol:

The Glee cover of Glad you came:

Well, by being utterly inferior to the original, it should boost sales of the Wanted that bit more. I hope.
I'm not even a huge Wanted fan. I just really like this song.

The Glee cover is definitely one of the worst they've done.. but anyways... I heard this on the radio today and all the peeps in the car knew it.. 8-)

I'm not a huge fan either but I really like this song. I didn't think expect it to be bad. Either way I hope it helps the Wanted get more exposure.

Horrible.

Ugh horrible, I wish Glee would just bugger off covering every single song - it's so grating now.

I can safely admit to never watching a full episode of Glee!! Or if I did I was half asleep at the time

At some point soon Glee will be gone and replaced by some other indentikit show, though with more bad covers?? Still someone likes it so I can put up with that

Excellent record. I would have never guess this was a boy band!

Ouch! That Glee cover is absolutely horrible! :-?

Let's hope it'll still give the song a boost!

It's currently #17 on US Itunes, so it's rising again after falling to #30...

Jesus, that cover is absolutley terrible!!

by **Dino** » Sun Feb 19, 2012 4:57 pm

hopefully it can go top 20 this next week.

Even as a fan of Glee, I'll happily admit that that cover is terrible.

by **Alicepotter** » Sun Feb 19, 2012 9:23 pm

#15 in Itunes.

by **Noahh** » Mon Feb 20, 2012 11:16 pm

#12 US iTunes now!! 8-)

Yay it's rebounding! I need this to be bigger than 1D's single!

Well I must admit that I like their song "One Thing" but the group overall just makes me cringe...

The Wanted on the other hand, I love (music-wise but also as a group)

haha yeah The Wanted have quality dance music and nice clear voices and their British accents >>> haha (well 1D too but not as good as TW) and TW are not juvenile like 1D.. it's like a bunch of Justin Beibers in one group :lol:

crappy or not, it looks like the Glee performance has given this a nice boost on US iTunes: it just cracked the Top 10 for the first time, currently at No. 9!

by **Supernatural** » Wed Feb 22, 2012 9:38 am

#7 iTunes

exactly. glee did them a fave.

no Glee sometimes do songs that are just as good as original (in their own way), but this song......even though i like 1D's single more, this song is better with accents, idk.

Glee's covers are usually on point (imo), but yyyeaa, not one of the better covers...it's because Naya isn't singing on it.
