It's nice to see it picking up sales again and it's done decently considering how successful the first greatest hits was.

If only, but at least the original CD is still available as new (on both Amazon and HMV) to be able to count as sales! Although sometimes I wonder if it simply being called 'Ten' does it a disservice, because it doesn't exactly scream "I'm a Greatest Hits album!" lol. At least it doesn't matter for streaming, because people don't have to play the songs via Ten, for it to be counted to Ten.
I suppose a Ten vinyl isn't planned if they went to the trouble of planning a vinyl for The Whole Damn Show Megamix. A pity if that release ultimately ends up being their only "hits on vinyl" album. Ten should have been on vinyl in 2012 tbh! It's just at that point, pop music on vinyl wasn't terribly common, for albums at least. So their label probably didn't even consider it then unfortunately. Even though they released a fair few singles on vinyl. |

I agree it should be called Ten (Greatest Hits) to help drive sales for sure. Is there no way they can re-title it?

I agree it should be Ten The Greatest Hits as GH do pick up more casual sales than what people deem a regular album which many might think it is.

Massively surprised they didn’t announce the GH on vinyl - either version - to go with the tour.

Happy to see it top 30 and hopefully rise again this week.
After a massively impressive re entry at number 10 last week here in Ireland, Ten drops to number 66 this week. |

Keep going
 I hope this tour can help their catalogue get healthier residual streams/sales over time, as aside from the big hitters it's felt a bit dormant for years in that regard. |

Very dormant for too long so hopefully this resurgence helps.
I'm still holding out hope that the success of the reunion will lead to new music. |

Girl bands and female pop artists in general do! With the amount of hits Madonna and Kylie have you think they would be up there in the top 20 all the time like Elton John or Fleetwood Mac are, and then Spice Girls greatest hits is never to be seen in the top 100 but Westlife and Take That are always surfacing in it.  No real justice at all. |

QUOTE(Yobnedor @ 31st May 2024, 06:11 PM) Massively surprised they didn’t announce the GH on vinyl - either version - to go with the tour. I wish they had, but the upcoming existence of the new Megamix on vinyl makes me fear that they'll never press either of their hits collections on vinyl.  I think 'Ten' as a title/theme, does the album a disservice in many respects, and one of them is that it doesn't really make sense anymore from a marketing perspective, in terms of releasing a new format of it. If it really had to be called Ten, I wish they'd been a bit more obvious with the title and called it something like 'Ten: The Hits', 'Ten: The Greatest Hits', 'Ten: The Greatest Hits of Girls Aloud', 'Ten: The Singles Collection'... basically anything to make it super clear that it's a compilation album. The CD is still available to buy "as new" from HMV/Amazon, and yet it's not Top 100 in the physical chart this week. It's letting them down in the main album chart... they're actually #24 in the streaming chart (which is pretty incredible!) but the album ended up at #30 overall. QUOTE(Jessie Where @ 31st May 2024, 07:38 PM) I hope this tour can help their catalogue get healthier residual streams/sales over time, as aside from the big hitters it's felt a bit dormant for years in that regard. Absolutely! Considering how well they're doing on streaming right now (for 'Ten' to be #24 in the streaming chart), their singles must be getting significantly more sales per week... perhaps the most since their years of release?  It makes me hopeful that some of their currently uncertified singles go Silver a lot earlier than anticipated. No Good Advice has already defied my expectations: based on how it was selling in the 2010s, in August 2019 I estimated that Silver didn't look achieveable until Summer 2026 - yet it's done it, 2 years in advance, just as the tour started. Which may indicate that Girls Aloud being active since last November has already made their streams healthier. It makes me hopeful that Sexy! No No No... isn't far off silver at this point. Back in 2019 I estimated 2027 as being its silver year, but could it do it this year?

I'm surprised the physicals aren't doing anything so its strange in a good way that its streaming that's bringing the success for the album at the moment.

Would the physicals be doing not much/nothing because most or all of the fans already own it on cd? This is where a vinyl or a potential re-release could’ve come in handy. |
