I think it's great. Even if this doesn't do amazingly well her next single could be dynamite but it would have been nice to see a small TV performance this week. Is it out on Streaming?

Yes, available on Spotify and GooglePlay. It's featured on both as well.

Looking likely of her peaking at 18 on iTunes today, quite disappointing considering how good it all looked at 1pm.

 

24 hours ago peaking at 18 on iTunes would have been an unbelievable result.

I'm very pleased as well. :)

Not only is this so much better than what I ever expected, but also charts have changed and hit songs are built through many weeks, not the first one.

Is it featured in the first four songs on Hot Songs today on iTunes? (or do you have to swipe for it /it's not there at all).

 

I guess it's worth mentioning that it's now in the first four songs in Hot Songs on iTunes now. Get dat promo Mollz

Hopefully that helps it hold onto #18 for a bit longer!

 

Some updated peaks outside the Top 200:

 

#268 Austria

#270 New Zealand

#270 Australia

#318 Italy

#616 Belgium

#741 Canada

#831 Germany

#944 United States

#949 France

 

Also still rising in Ireland. Up to a new peak of #32.

Is it really on the USA charts?

 

I genuinely thought this would, at best, go top 100 on UK iTunes only, never mind #18 and also showing up on various charts round the world.

It was #32 in Ireland but it's back at #36.

 

Still #18 in the UK. That will be the peak for the week I think, but that's still insanely better than what we've all expected.

 

She's doing quite

poorly

on streaming though, so definitely do give it a play on Spotify please, guys!

Doesn't it take ages for songs to build on Spotify, though?

Well, define "ages"? Certainly not one week for suuuure, but I mean, it won't hurt her.

Well I dunno much about Spotify and streaming but I was always under the impression that songs just take a while to build and that most OA/OS releases do well on sales but struggle initially with streams, even those from big artists? Like, I don't know if any songs tend to debut on Spotify and start smashing immediately or not, I mean maybe it's pretty common to do shitty on Spotify on the first day of release and we're worrying for nothing?

No, you're right. Obviously "struggling" is subjective as some big artists might not chart in the top 10 right away because of streaming, but it's decent enough for them to chart in the top 40 whereas Mollie won't.

 

But yeah, hits are built through time and are less front-loaded than in the past, mainly because of streaming.

Just saw the top 1000 in France. COME THROUGH MY PEOPLE!

I think you're both right. Yeah, I wouldn't expect her to be getting many streams at all just yet (especially considering the music video has only managed 15,000 views so far, which is a whole other story) -- usually only very established artists, anticipated releases, or songs featured on the Spotify homepage have a strong start with streaming. Streaming usually goes hand in hand with airplay. I would, however, like to see it getting streamed a bit more at this stage. Spotify is showing 13,600 streams so far, but it also said the same number about six hours ago. It must only update once or twice a day. So it could be doing not-so-bad? I definitely don't expect it to enter the Top 200 anytime soon though. I don't think NGU or WAYWF ever entered the Top 200 and those had some airplay.

:hi:

In all honesty I think it'll take a good 3/4 weeks for streaming to build up and that's if radio decide to support it.

I always forget that Totto hates chart stuff and doesn't find it interesting.

 

Sorry Joe :lol:

Great to see you back here!

 

Light green again on Kworb. Wonder if it could take over Kungs?

She needs to stablize her position at #18 so she can either rise a bit or again stabilize in the top 25 through the week as she does her radio tour.

Guys, chill, it will do better with streaming. She is a 'new' artist who needs to establish radio play for it to smash

Yes, the song is going to plummet regardless. There's nothing to keep it afloat. I just hope it can inch up a bit more before that happens. I fully expect it to nosedive out of the Top 50 in the next few days, but that's really OK. The fact that she made it as high as #18 probably just helped her chances of getting radio support immensely. Dua Lipa only made it to #24 initially and Anne-Marie only made it to #33 (these are the two most recent comparisons to Mollie I can think of) and they've done just fine with radio support and are both going to manage Silver singles. Very hopeful at this point!
