Well, if you think Weekend Love and Oxygen have helped them in any way shape or formz you're delusional!

Weekend Love would have been even bigger than Wannabe! It would have achieved a 10 week run at #1 and at least 2 million physical sales. Factor in the downloads/streaming and it could have easily exceeded 3m now. It really is the classic hit that got away!!

 

:kink:

Amazing numbers for Wannabe :o Let’s hope they’re even higher in July for the anniversary.

FACTS :cheer:

Anyway...let’s get back to discussing the charts thread 👀

Wannabe streams

 

Saturday - 498k

Sunday - 411k :cheer:

 

900k streams in 2 days is pretty insane

 

Spotify listeners now at 8.8 million and an increase of 49k since yesterday

Would love to see them over 9m soon.

Spice Girls at 8.88 million monthly listeners.

 

"Wannabe" is only 27.5 million streams behind Fifth Harmony's "Worth It". In January 2021 it was 50m behind.

 

"Wannabe" will easily be the 2nd most-streamed girl group song of all time on Spotify sometime this year, which will be great for its 25th anniversary as it will also get a nice boost.

Fabulous :wub: Hopefully the increasing continues, and they exceed 9m listeners.

 

However there's still no sign of Greatest Hits in the UK midweeks. I suppose their increased exposure on Spotify must be more significant in other countries than in the UK. Greatest Hits hasn't been in the UK chart since November 2019... :cry:

 

I wish there was a way that Universal could provide a boost in streams for their non-Wannabe singles in UK streaming playlists.

Spotify listeners up to 8.9 million. Fingers crossed they get to 9m by July.

Come onnnnnnn!!!! Pretty obvious that they will get a boost with the new announcements anyway!!

P.S. Wannabe did 405k streams yesterday (Thurs streams) as it's only Friday today. That's really good as their weekday average is approx 350k.

 

I think "Wannabe" is going to do very well this Summer :D

It's great Wannabe is doing so well, hopefully with the vinyl, cassette, EP, lyric video (I'm sure ones coming) and anniversary it can do some great sales throughout July and be 4 times platinum before you know it.

Wannabe did 450k streams yesterday

 

Fingers crossed the anniversary will push it over 500k a day.

 

Also nearly at 9 million monthly listeners

Such huge flops these days

The Spice Girls YouTube channel has reached 910k subscribers, that's an extra 10k in just three weeks. Hopefully it'll get to 1m by the end of the year :cheer:

The OCC don't have the End of year charts published on their website for singles until the 2000s, but recently they've been posting the Top 40 best-selling singles of the year. They've done all the 80s and now they're up to 1993.

 

Hopefully we'll get an updated article for 1996-1998, plus the anniversary is a month away. We may finally get some sales updates soon :dance:

 

OCC article

Stop has reached 98m streams on Spotify.

 

It does exactly 2m streams a month so this time next month it will be over 100m :cheer: :magic:

Stop is the GOAT. It did deserve to be no.1, more than any other solo that reached the top. Such a pity.
