Are you sure Greatest Showman sold all 7,000 copies yesterday alone and wasn’t just streaming being added on that was missing from over the weekend? That just seems like quite the increase

Yes I guess its all the streaming data that was missing from the weekend

Now on 40.7k.

 

From UKMIX, the breakdown is as follows:

 

Total sales: 40,685

Yesterday: 3,273

CD: 23,560

Digital: 8,263

Streams: 1,143

LP: 6,036

Tape: 1,683

 

Golden has debuted at #64 in Japan, lower than the #40 peak of Kiss Me Once but much higher than the #171 peak of Kylie Christmas.

 

The album is midweek #2 in Germany, which would be her highest peak there since Fever.

That's surprising and amazing. :o

I think with the promo still lined up in Germany, tomorrow Echo awards performance and Let's Dance performance in the weekend, she might get her second number one album in Germany and debut at number one in the UK, Australia and Germany...

But are German Charts compiled friday or sunday, if sunday she might really stand a chance of grabbing that number one there....

Recap of Kylie's first week sales:

 

49,000 Light Years (#2)

139,075 Fever (#1)

68,866 Body Language (#6)

82,822 Ultimate Kylie (#4)

82,370 X (#4)

79,152 Aphrodite (#1)

37,556 The Abbey Road Sessions (#2)

29,251 Kiss Me Once (#2)

15,881 Kylie Christmas (#12)

 

Golden is on track to increase 50% on the sales for Kiss Me Once, which itself was down 63% on the sales of Aphrodite.

Considering the climate change golden has done well when compared to light years it will only be snot 6-7 k short of light years opening sales.

I think it's only going to be a couple of thousand off the first week sales of Light Years tbh!

 

Even though its total sales of half a million are good, I have to say the initial performance of Light Years doesn't seem that impressive considering how big her 2000 comeback seems. 49k would have been pretty average back then and it slipped down the charts quite fast - in a very similar fashion to Kiss Me Once, in fact:

 

Light Years: 2-7-14-19-28-38...

 

Kiss Me Once: 2-8-13-17-38...

 

Fever really helped the album bulk up its sales, going from 225k at the end of 2000 to over 400k by the end of 2002.

50% increase on 29k is 44k 😂

Thanks a lot for this!

Do you have to be so pedantic?

Golden has a lovely, quite elaborate banner advertisement on Spotify today, which autoplays a clip from the Dancing video.

 

 

I'm a bit :rolleyes: that BMG sorted it for Thursday when this is the one day of the week where streams don't get counted for the chart.

Good promo on BBC nice montage of videos. Dancing also good promo up from 23 to 21, coming for those late itunes sales

Do they Not? .....how come? I learn something new everyday

Some sort of glitch that's been there since the beginning which they haven't managed to sort out, and it means they're unable to count the data for that day, so they average it over what it's been for everything throughout the week.

Yeah, streaming will be unweighted from the rest of the week. Which means any slight boost in stream sales from today will be lost in an abyss.

She did that.

Great banner, thanks!

Kylie's album total sales since 2000:

 

0,495,000 Light Years

1,715,000 Fever

0,415,000 Body Language

0,475,000 X

0,330,000 Aphrodite

0,080,000 Kiss Me Once

0,140,000 Kylie Christmas

 

Those are just my estimates rounded to the nearest 5k (you can see the last known sales for them here). Would be nice to get some updated totals although, as you can tell from my estimates, I don't think her studio albums are strong trickle sellers. Her compilations, however, would be good to see updates for. Her 2012 Best Of, for instance, passed Silver well over 2 years ago.

Thanks for the numbers! I thought LY, BL and X would've sold a bit more but like you said, their sales probably tumbled down the second the album campaign stopped and she moved onto the next era.

It's interesting to see how generally consistant she is with sales. Also a but gutting to se ehow much more potential Aphrodite had, 330K with essentially one single.

Leaving GOMW till September was just bizarre.
