Posted May 6, 20187 yr I was thinking wouldn't t be nice to all download a retro Kylie song in celebration of Kylie's 50th birthday. Not a campaign as such but just to see how many sales we could get? I am sure we could get a social media campaign going? I was thinking Better The Devil You Know? Or Confide in me? If you like idea could you share with other forums and get something going? We could all download from idnight on Friday 25th May?
May 6, 20187 yr I remember we did something like this a couple of years ago, picked a song for Buzzjack's 10th anniversary and downloaded it to see what we could make happen. I think 30-40 people participating got it on the cusp of the iTunes top 1,000.
May 6, 20187 yr Author But this is Kylie 50th and not buzzhack but whole Kylie fans. Surely we could get something top 100 Is there no 59p Kylei songs lol Edited May 6, 20187 yr by SmileyKylie
May 6, 20187 yr What songs have plenty of versions/remixes available to help with sales and streaming?

May 6, 20187 yr Author Nice list. Think Better The Devil You Know is liked by everyone. It's classic Kylie Or we could do Can't Get You Out Of My Head as this already has good streaming from playlsts Edited May 6, 20187 yr by SmileyKylie
May 6, 20187 yr I am sure we could get a social media campaign going? I was thinking Better The Devil You Know? Or Confide in me? CIM is one of my all time favourite Kylie songs but BTDYK fits in more with a celebration of Kylie and her pop history. There are also multiple versions/mixes available to buy and stream. Definitely need some social media activity sooner rather than later.
May 6, 20187 yr Author But cant get you out of my head gets the most streaming of all her songs so would be easier to get a top 100 hit
May 6, 20187 yr But cant get you out of my head gets the most streaming of all her songs so would be easier to get a top 100 hit I think we’d be pushing getting anything Top 100 tbh - at least 4,500+ copies would need to be sold plus a huge social media campaign, can’t see that happening before May 25th - would love to be proved wrong though.
May 7, 20187 yr Better The Devil You Know would be the one to go with as its vintage and classic Kylie.
May 7, 20187 yr Author Yep sounds so good stll. Thinking though CGYOOMH has streaming already........ Looks like your disco needs you is the song chosen. Probably a bit of a mistake because it will get virtually no streaming what so ever. Edited May 7, 20187 yr by SmileyKylie
May 7, 20187 yr But this is Kylie 50th and not buzzhack but whole Kylie fans. Surely we could get something top 100 Is there no 59p Kylei songs lol I was mainly trying to give you an idea of sales thresholds to achieve that on the iTunes chart. There is a big Kylie fan group on Facebook called Kylie Minogue Universe which has about 13,500 members that you could try. I'm not gonna post it there though because real life friends of mine are also part of that group.
May 8, 20187 yr That would be ideal as if only half them downloaded a song it could get her an iTunes number 1 and a top 75 entry that's if we could manage to get 7500 kylie fans to all download the same song.
May 8, 20187 yr Author What I a trying to say is CGYOOMH is on playlists already. The streamig is already good so we would just need the 99p downloads. All other songs need streamibg and if her new stuff can't get streamng then your disco needs you will get none
May 8, 20187 yr It is something that if is going to be done it would need to be started up soon. Yep needs to happen now for it to have any chance of getting Kylie fans behind the idea. For something to chart in her birthday week downloading would need to start from the 18th.
May 8, 20187 yr Suppose it could be fun to get something on iTunes, as it was when we did for Buzzjack's 10th anniversary, but I don't think anything stands a chance at charting. 'Head' may be her best streamer but its streams are relatively small compared to other artists' signature hits.
May 9, 20187 yr Author Yep but if we streamed it as well and bought it then all extra. Anyhow I have no access to other forums so need some one to put word out
