Nah. Not going to get anywhere near.

 

It was only streamed 20,000 approx worldwide yesterday.

 

Will have to wait until they start promo in January

I’m glad it’s not doing overly well tbh - we need those sales and streams saved for when/if it gets a single release.
No surprise but nowhere to be sent in today’s mids - was hoping it might have appeared at #99 or something in the first update :kink:

I had thought it might show in today's midweeks.

The fact it hasn't shows it wont be appearing on the chart this week.

It just shows how little a top 20 on iTunes counts in the overall chart.

 

Yes it’s good to get paid for sales but streaming is so dominant that it counts them out ten fold in terms of chart positions.

 

I think paid downloads will linger on for a long time but streaming will surge from Christmas onwards - will be interesting to see how Madonna does with her comeback single and album but acts like Kylie, Madonna, Cher etc., basically have very limited chances of having a big hit unless they get a collab of some sort.

I was really surprised to not see it at least show up in the midweek top 100. Usually top 20 on iTunes on the first day or two ensures that happens? (like with Robyn's 'Missing U' for instance, which even officially made the top 100 in the end).
I thought it would be top 100 as I thought sigala would attract more a treating than kylie would as a solo this mixed with iTunes I thought it would have done enough to even manage done thing like number 98.
I don’t think it will be pushed as a single at the moment. The style is so different to her current stuff and I think BMG will want to focus on Kylie’s Golden album campaign until Christmas at least. It might get pushed next year when golden campaign is over though.
I feel pushing it now would be the right time as it would help keep the focus on the album and keep it selling while the interest is still there.

I still think there is a chance that MOS will push WYWF as reported early next year, essentially his album is a flop (Opening week sales of less than 5k and that’s including the multiple tweets I’ve seen from Kylie fans who have bought the CD and vinyl as Kylie’s picture is included inside - including me :kink: ) so they could see it as an opportunity to push a new single and the album in the quieter months?

 

It’s been mentioned before that Kylie’s team are the ones behind it’s delayed release as a single which would make sense as they want the Q4 focus on Golden.

Seems strange that Kylie's team appear to have so much influence when she only features. Really it's Sigala's song and he and his team can do what they want. Maybe they have more say because it was originally going to be Kylie's own single?
I can't think why they are thinking that way as if it's a single now it would help keep her name out there and the album selling,unless they are planning a price drop in Jan and using the single to help sell it aswell.

I’ve heard of similar things in the past tbh - where a ‘big’ featured artist will basically have terms and conditions over the release (eg; has to be released as a single etc.,), Kylie’s team must have negotiated what they wanted when MOS and Sigala wanted to put the song on his album?

Debuts at #33 on the official sales chart. Strangely not on the dance chart though?

 

Just spotted this! Another Top 40 Kylie has missed out on :drama:

Sigala has a single out at moment and it's doing well. Kylie has all her promo slots or Golden during the rest of the year so the Sigala track will have to wait. She is busy with tour and no time go video etc. It will be a hit in January?
