Looks like lockdown will have started for 2 weeks end of October in UK so who knows what will be open, closed in terms of shops.

Streaming wise Little Mix will do well if we are all at home.

If I were Kylie I would do another Amazon exclusive as they did well with deliveries throughout lockdown lol

Kylie’s team will go all out with release week to get the top spot, with multiple versions and collectors editions etc. I don’t think little mix have the album buying fan base currently to beat that. Little Mux will probably be the bigger ‘seller’ in the long run though thanks to streaming.

Amazed you all think little Mix are a streaming force
Sure Kylie will do little on streaming but probably L Mix too
They do well enough on streaming cos the label pays to have their songs on playlists and people passively stream them
but don't expect the Little3 Mix album tracks to spend months in the Spotify top 40 like Taylor or Pop Smoke

Little mix just put up cassette bundles, vinyls with each member face which hardcore mixers will probably buy all 4

Funnily enough I would rather Kylie get two number 39 singles than the number 1 album. Haha

A chart battle is always good for sales so if Kylie can best the 48k she got for Golden then that's good enough for me.

I think Little Mix got nearly 10k album streams in first week and Kylie nearly 2k hence why people will think that wi happen this time too
In opening week.

Too many people put too much emphasis on pre orders. It will be on the week sales/streams that decide it

Voted for Kylie but I would love it if Little Mix somehow got the #1 album. They are going to dominate prime time television with The Search so that should help them. Exciting race nevertheless!!!

Kylie and she won’t need to reduce to £4.99 or sign a million copies to achieve it - queen of loyal stans and physicals.
LMAO and you think Little Mix's stingy ass label will do it? ���� It took them 5 weeks to discount Holiday and 7 (?) For BUS! tongue.gif

TBH depending on how close it is, I can def see a one up-man ship happening like what happened with Dua vs 5SOS. Whoever is trailing will dcount/add signed albums for cheap first, then the other will counteract for their fanbase etc..

And it'll all be for nothing coz there will be a surprise re-re-release of Lewis Capaldi's album that'll storm it's way to number 1 with over 150k ���� (or something :') )

I hope Kylie get's it she has achieved #1 albums in the 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s would be awesome for her to be the first female artist to go into the fifth decade of #1 albums.

I hope Kylie takes the crown but lockdown could have a big impact on her physical sales. Kylie is more reliant on physical sales due to low streaming. If we’re subject to a tight lockdown and shop closures, her sales could be affected quite drastically.

Little Mix did 7.1k pre-orders in first day apparently. The HMV exclusive and all the signed bundles all sold out though so that will be by far their biggest day or pre-orders.

It's worth noting that it costs a lot to buy these Little Mix individual member formats:

Picture Disc x4
= £100.80
(£90 items + £10.80 postage)

Cassettes x4
= £42.90
(£36 items + £6.90 postage)

Picture Disc x4 + Cassettes x4
= £142.99
(£126 items + £16.99 postage)

I feel like it'll be the case that most Little Mix fans will have to settle for choosing their favourite member. Also, a lot of fans may prioritise tour tickets over buying loads of formats.

Even individually they're not exactly cheap, £31.90 per picture disc / £13.25 per cassette (with postage).

On the other hand, I get the impression that more of Kylie's fanbase will have an obsession with buying different formats, and have the disposable income to be able to do it (they've certainly proved that with her previous releases). Kylie's not touring, so that's some money saved for her fanbase to buy formats.

Yeah the prices for the Little Mix bundles (and even individually) are ridiculous, so hopefully that's something that'll work in Kylie's favour. Not having to decide between those and tour tickets will be a relief too.

Little Mix will have a broader appeal though, so better on Streaming and coming off the back of a high profile TV show.

I still think it’s all to play for to be honest.

LM have added exclusive signed CDs for £10 on Amazon.
That’s going to get them a good few extra sales as it’s a great price

I think there was only 1000 of them and they've sold out now. Little Mix must be on around 10k pre-orders now.

I’ll be very surprised if Little Mix beat Kylie to #1 tbh. Surely they would have been better off releasing a week or two earlier?

I think Kylie has a bigger chance of getting number 1 unless her label decides to release the album on thursday basil.gif
