I'm hoping she will do decent sales of around 65k, it should be a constant seller with the run up to Xmas. I must admit the single has really grown on me and now I hear it everywhere wherever I go. Love to see its opening sales on Monday, if they are around 35k she could do 80k max, or more.

What surprises me more, P!nk has never really lost her fan base, when other artists like Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera fail to deliver.

Added in a poll to save a new thread being made for one.

I think she'll do about 70k.

I think what keeps P!nk going is she really caters to the radio and her casual listener base. Britney and Christina lost that and subsequently just release for the fans now.

Britney's leads in the 2010s weren't big enough for her casual fanbase and the radio. She lost a bit of radio presence with 'Hold It Against Me' and then eventually killed it (and most of her casual listeners buys) stone dead with 'Pretty Girls' (which didn't even make the album such was its negative reaction). Christina likewise released a run of duds as lead singles with 'Keeps Getting Better', 'Not Myself Tonight' and 'Your Body' which killed interest.

I would say it's more so that P!nk's music has evolved and matured along with her fanbase. That's allowed her to transition and gather a foothold with more AC leaning stations like BBC Radio 2/Magic/Heart etc whilst keeping herself open to the typical mainstream pop stations like Capital/BBC Radio 1.

P!nk has literally been releasing the exact same songs for 10 years now. I mean, her success and stability is really impressive but her "confessional pop rock" sound has not matured or evolved in any way, shape or form. Any song from her current album could have been in any of her previous albums.

The secret of her success is not that she has evolved. Quite the opposite. Is that people know exactly what to expect from her.

No no no

Stop pawin at her piece.

She is absolute TURD.

What sh does is chase trends. When Adele made it big, oops here se comes with SCREEECHY ballads and an anti feminist album called Something About Love - might as well call it Winning A Man Through His Stomach!!!!

Bizarre.

Then trop pop gets big and oh there she is!

But that is what Britney and Christina should have done. Britney just ended up releasing monotone dance for her small group of fans and the general public got bored of it, and of that sound, and moved on to other trends. Now they are 90s/ 00s relics. Britney is not to blame due to her mental health. She honestly should have retired or only done things like Vegas as she will never fully recover. It would have made her even more of a legend like that -like the Spice Girls. Christina with her eras before GaGa was always changing. When she started chasing GaGa and looking like a cheap jealous copy, that was the end. She should have stayed true to her evolution.

I put 100k+ haha.

Given how Liam managed to storm it with not having had half the singles chart success I think she will surprise everyone this week. Might realistically end up between 70-90k but I would not be surprised to see it higher.

I don't even get the point you're trying to make in this post.

Anyway yes I agree that she hasn't really evolved her sound, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, it's what has kept her going. She's giving her fans what they want rather than try to chase trends. I'm actually surprised she's still doing so well but very pleased for her.

As a huge P!nk fan myself though, I have to say I'm a little underwhelmed by the new album on first listen, so I'm even more surprised at how well it's looking to do. I probably just need to give it a few more listens though, thousands of people can't be that wrong laugh.gif

I don't care that she hasn't changed her style because I like her style. Other artists I like have changed their style for the worse and Pink always has great songs. She may not be too adventurous but her music is always true to herself which makes her music mean something more. I think the new album has taken her sound and made it more mature. She deserves all her success.

Even when her singles do bad she has decent opening sales but WAU has been fairly big so fairly sure she will with ease maybe not over 100k but anywhere between 50-100k should be easy for her

Eh, I would say her new album is her most mature/melow album she's released. There's definitely been evolution of her music. Listen to Can't Take Me Home and contrast it to her current album, quite a big difference.

This album is different from the last in terms of sound. It's more mature/mellow with a lot of mid tempo songs.

I really hated her previous era and love the new one. And 'What About Us' is super fresh and current. So I wouldn't say she isn't evolving at all!

I voted for #1 BUT with 40-60k sales unfortunately. The market state is dire, but I'd love her to go to 100k+ (pretty sure OCC would send a press release if she was above 50k after the first day though, like they did with Liam Gallagher).
