Yeah, I've been thinking about how she recorded 50-60 songs for this album and decided to put 'Anything For Love' on there. It's most bizarre.

The strong physical sales prove Dua has built a fanbase since Future Nostalgia and her career is far from over. I think Dua's dad has seen the opportunity for Dua to sell and benefit from physical sales and put a lot of effort into promoting that. Only after he started managing Dua did her singles start being released on physicals. The bundles on her store were appealing, the gifs of her with the vinyls and cassettes, the lenticular CD, the art cards and the notebook.
It was hard for me at the beginning of the week to read so many people writing negatively about Dua and how she is flopping in all corners of the internet. I was considering taking a break from this forum and social media so I could just enjoy the album without the doom and gloom background noise The streaming numbers still concern me. It was down to 10M globally yesterday. I'm nervous about today's numbers but hopeful it can still stabilize. I wonder if the numbers would have been better if they chose a better focus track for playlists than the MOR These Walls? |

The streaming/sales breakdown comparison with FN indicates that although Dua’s core fanbase has grown quite a bit from era-to-era, casual fans (more likely to stream) aren’t so impressed.

I feel like they cheated us by including an interlude-like track on an already short album with 3 pre-album singles. It's so odd. And another poor move for the album's streaming numbers as seen in the daily updates, a lot of people are skipping Anything For Love |

I reckon she may release a new edition before the end of the year
