Yeah definitely, I'm quite satisfied with them. Could potentially get higher sales later in December too.

Top 15/15k or so is a good result given how early it is in the season for most people. Should see quite small drops, sales wise, at least for the next few weeks and end up with a healthy total. Especially given how poorly Christmas albums do here generally.

16,000 is respectable, but i had believed, Kylie had enough hardcore fans alone to buy that amount, that would not include any casual buyers. Therefore, it looks like even some of her loyal fans have yet to support this release.

Not bad not bad........ She is holding up well on ITunes at 19-25th region...... lots are slipping faster....... so she may stick around. Will have to wait and see week 2 sales could be very low and it could drop A lot while she is in Australia........ will it drop out of top 30 in week 2? probably

 

She does well from TV promo so we have to wait until beginning of December.

 

If she had released vinyl at same time I think she could have sold another 1.5k of those and gone top 10 but hey ho she didn't deliberately so that's good

That's that then, no top 10.

 

I'm satisfied with 16k.

 

Who's behind her and likely to overtake at this stage?

Only You dropped to 179th yesterday and now back up to 97th in UK ITunes... just shows what 1 play does on a radio station can do... if only it was sustained

Love how Santa Baby has now had 6,750,000 plays on Spotify in its lifespan.

Who's behind her and likely to overtake at this stage?

The Beatles are #12 and are on track to overtake but, at the rate albums were selling yesterday, no-one else is on track to do so, but that's not baring in mind whether Kylie will slow down further or who may have missing streams etc.

 

I'd say there was a very high chance of her being Top 15 though.

Kylie has nothing left to attract sales, also if missing streams are added i fear Kylie falling further. Could Michael Buble chart higher than her this week?

I think she may have sold more than she ordinarily would yesterday due to her This Morning appearance.

So we are looking at 15k for Kylie Christmas first week......

 

2nd week probably around 3-4k?

 

Just all depends if people will buy it as Xmas season kicks into full swing.

 

or will they cherry pick songs?

 

I am hoping her 100 degrees performance on Australian X-factor will get some UK media interest even if it just on some Showbiz news.....

 

I don't think streaming sales for albums is that great is it? singles yes but albums? I mean Elvis had sales of approx. 88k last week and streaming points where on 863..... so down where Kylie is I cant see streaming being more than 100-200 sales

 

Kylie with Only You will have a 2nd week 'C' listed on Radio 2..... A listed are Corrs, Elton, Paul Heaton, Adele etc

I'm disappointed with the album position on first week but not the actual sales. I hoped this would make top10. I think it will drop quickly next week and will recover slightly over the next few weeks but can't see it selling more than KMO to be honest.

It at best may match Kiss Me Once total sales which is disappointing as that sold very poorly. Annoyingly, the promotion for the albums appears to be declining on each release and sadly so is the quality. While the current and previous release are enjoyable in parts they are both a long way off what Kylie does best.

I think having "Only You" was a good choice for the lead single, and hopefully it will get a video shot and generate more interest in the album, and also hopefully she might have a video shot for "Santa Baby" for a possible promo release and then it could climb back up the charts. I dunno maybe "OY" might become a surprise hit for her.

Its all about what she will promote

 

for example - Royal Variety on 7th Dec she sings Most Wonderful Time Of Year.....

 

so I guess she is going to do different songs for each show.....

 

she had to send 1 song to radio and it was Only You..... that just needs a performance and would sell a lot but as it is people still do not know much about it...

 

Streaming - I listen to a lot on Spotify but Kylie fans probably just listen to CD on media player or CD player :) ... they could stream most songs and help but they don't.... so she loses out .... for instance Only You has had only 168,000 streams worldwide in 2 weeks......... very low

I've streamed it a few times. Though it's just a drop in the ocean really.

Still 11 today, right under Ben Haenow, lucky cow.

how many behind too many? I see she is ahead on ITunes now of him....

Dunno but she better not overtake him, his album is way better. Kylie has enough top 10 albums.
