Exactly not many songs debut high these days so pink was a great achievement sadly sales are low and people want to dampen it though

QUOTE(cqmerqn @ Aug 18 2017, 01:05 PM) She's doing just fine. Don't Kill My Vibe spent almost two months in the top 100 and went top 40 on iTunes. This is her debut. She's young and has so much potential. She will probably have a big collaboration lined up (The Chainsmokers are very eager to work with her) and blow up from there! Ha, a collaboration with Zedd has been confirmed! |

I just find it weird that he isn't doing as well as he normally does. Little Mix aren't falling as harshly despite being even more of a fan base act than Justin imo. It must be down to overexposure |

It must be down to overexposure I agree that overexposure is probably the reason, none of us seemed to consider it but he's been #1 for 12 weeks this year across two songs, plus 2U as well if he hadn't had I'm the One, Despacito and 2U, I think people's appetite for new Justin might have been stronger. Time will tell if it blossoms into a bigger hit I guess!

It must be down to overexposure It could also be down to the fact that Friends is not anything special whatsoever, especially compared to his last two releases. I'm The One being a sort of mega collaboration and Despacito being Despacito. Friends is just plain and generic. Edit: I forgot that atrocious 2U was a thing. I hated that but I admit it was better than this Friends garbage This post has been edited by Dexton: 20th August 2017, 12:06 AM |

I hated that but I admit it was better than this Friends garbage Well this is subjective imo it's the most meaningful song he's released since Purpose and I adore the production too. It's just overexposure I think, if this was released before I'm the One, when there had been a more substantial gap between releases, it would've cruised to a #1 debut I expect! Diminishing returns and all that.

Friends is his worst single in years in my opinion. Glad it's not just going straight to #01 on name alone (although that might obviously still happen with steaming included..)

Could Dua see off all the new competition this week
 Waiting for the next Spotify update as that should be a good indicator for Friends.

I find it depressing that the format that music is consumed through, now seems to be more important than the music itself.

QUOTE(Bjork @ Aug 20 2017, 06:53 AM) was the same 10 years ago with CD singles vs downloads I don't think the situation is really that comparable - with downloads, any one person would generally only contribute to the chart for one week, even acts with big fanbases. Nowadays though, that influence can last for months, and until recently, could clog the charts with many songs by one artist. |

1. Dua 2. Justin 3. Pink 4/5. Calvin / CNCO Maybe Calvin will jump above Pink but doubt CNCO will manage to go higher than her |
