QUOTE(k👠th @ Apr 16 2024, 01:49 PM)  Should be safe for UK top 10 debut I hope? Might be close. It'll need 25k+ to debut top 10. "Training Season" did 26,098 first week and this seems to be doing similarly? The youtube video is holding up better than "Training Season" as well. Although Sabrina & Perrie will also likely be top 10. 8, 9 & 10 did 29,213, 25,415 & 23,745 last week. Sabrina will definintely do 30k+ and Perrie will likely do 25k+ with physicals included. So Dua may need to do close to 30k to gaurentee top 10 this week. #8 29,213 sales is from Dasha's "Austin" which will likely increase in sales this week based on new streaming peaks. Shame Dua doesn't have any physicals this week, but to be fair a top 15 debut will be good as I'm sure the song will stabilise and get an album boost into the top 10 release week like "Physical" did. Hopefully they'll release CDs for the song as well to help boost it, perhaps into the top 5 album release week? |

Yeah, I think it will debut #11 this week but it'll probably jump to #7-#8 territory on album release week!!!

It will be very borderline for Illusion to make a Top 10 debut.

ouch Don't know if their goal is to succeed in the US though, but releasing this many singles in such a short time period doesn't help. |

It's gaining audience quite fast on US radio so hopefully that will help it climb |

This has started to grow on me a bit now... it's still my least fave of the 3 so far but it's definitely a solid enough addition to her run of singles

QUOTE Illusions debuts at No.9 (26,974 sales), becoming Dua Lipa’s 16th Top 10 and 28th Top 75 entry. Her fourth straight Top 10 hit, it is the third from upcoming third album, Radical Optimism. She did it again

I'm glad it got top 10 but I wish it had been higher, what's the deal with no physicals? Unless they're saving them for album release week?

Great debut!
Hopefully it'll rise to a new peak album release week. Perhaps top 5? *_*

I think the focus is album physicals and pre-orders at this point. It's a shame bc it's an easy extra 8-10k sales for Illusion (which would have been enough for Dua to peak at the elusive #7 position this week instead of #9) and the fans are crying for a vinyl on X. If this was getting a physical release, I'm sure it would've already been announced. Also not getting my hopes up for a big boost during album release week - it's only number 7 in the album track listing. |

On a more positive note, Illusion debuted at #43 on the US Hot 100. An improvement on the initial #60 prediction
Radio are eating it up! It already has a bigger overall audience than Training Season

Illusion drops 9-19 in its 2nd week with 20,526 sales. Really competitive week though,
