Nadine Coyle single sells just 117 copies

Posted Wed 3 Nov 2010 12:20 GMT by Edward Bovingdon in Behind The Music

Nadine Coyle ’s debut single ‘Insatiable’ has sold just 117 hard copies on its first day of release.

The dismal start for the former Girls Aloud singer will be heavily disappointing after weeks of promotional appearances and gigs, including her performance at G.A.Y. on Sunday. Despite these efforts, the single has performed poorly with only 117 hard copies sold since it was released on Monday, and digital downloads failing to reach even 2,500 so far.

Coyle’s hopes of becoming a solo artist seem to be dwindling as the record only hit number 35 in the midweek chart. The single is being sold exclusively through supermarket chain Tesco, a decision which could also be contributing to the poor sales.

In stark contrast, her former Girls Aloud colleague and 'X Factor' judge Cheryl Cole sold 157,000 copies of her single ‘Promise This’ during its first week on sale. The pair have been at odds with each other since launching solo careers, after Nadine snubbed Cheryl’s performance on X Factor. Cole has been alleged to have mimed on the live show and was snubbed by Coyle in a thinly-disguised attack at the star by stating she would never go on X Factor as she prefers to sing live.

She said: “I only want to do live shows. What happens with TV shows is you can’t always do things live. You can’t really get the full effect and with Insatiable being such a big song and because I’m just starting off I want it to be all about doing stuff live.”

Coyle will be hoping sales improve by Sunday when the charts are announced.
