Well I’ve just got my second copy of this as my parents got me the vinyl for my birthday yesterday. My Paloma vinyl collection is complete.

This has now finally gone Silver.

Wow. This has been a real fall from grace for her. All her previous albums have gone Platinum / Double Platinum. ohmy.gif

It is a shame. She made a joke on Monday when I saw that it had only sold about 10 copies. Also that it would be the only album of hers she would actually buy and listen to so it’s a shame if it’s her favourite album it’s done the worst sales wise.

It did really feel like nobody cared this time around and it slipped totally under the radar. sad.gif

The single choices were a bit of a cock-up too, but even then I'm not totally convinced the outcome would have been that different.

She deserved better for this album for sure sad.gif She did amazing to get four platinum albums though totally rare feat for a British female.

This campaign was very low key though. But I understand why it didn’t get the promo her last albums did.

I think the choice of singles was a mess and put a lot of people off
Plus the market has changed a lot, no one is selling like 5 years ago

found this the other day about her UK album sales, not sure if entirely up to date but it's very impressive:
Do you want the truth… [750k]
Fall to Grace [740k]
A perfect Contradiction [790k]
The architect [410k]
Invisible things [60k]

I’m surprised the last album sold poorly. The style isn’t massively different but she hasn’t had a hit from it which has connected with the wider public.

HMV have a special edition Fall From Grace vinyl which looks delightful, just not £30 delightful.

She did less promo for invisible things due to her been pregnant plus it was her first album that didnt have a new edition plus declining sales in general, these combined dont make up the shortfall but they all contributed.

Just going to drop in and remind y’all that the title track is one of the best things she’s ever recorded.

Me Time is my favourite from this album.

Very Sia like actually could really imagine her singing it.
