#13 is a great result for Westlife in todays era. The fact it's not freefalling on Spotify/streaming without hyge playlist support is great news. They're gonna make this a moderate hit, I reckon. Plus, their album will be massive I suspect.

 

This is a success. They outpeaked and out performed Cheryl and she had much better streaming playlist support!

plus 5k equals 25k est. so supposed to be #8 in the charts.

 

 

But you can’t really count the extra 5k + all the other sales because that is 9 days of sales then.

i'm talking about the sales. i bet the same 5k will buy if only the sales started on a friday

Possibly Ava Max sales are not correct.

If she is # 1 with 11k in sales.

If it's true that Westlife sold 10k and get the half of their chart points from streaming.

Thought they would take the number 1 with ease here in Ireland, it came so close.

I think its possible

Last few days their itunes sales dropped like hell

They were barely doing 300-500 copies per day

So 10-11 overall aounds good after the 2nd part of the week misfire

 

Sure they got good streams 10k is possible

Not sure how much they averaged but with the numbers they got on spotify

Plusyoutube views theywere low top 20, at least 100,000 streams per day

 

So half itunes half streams sounds ok

8 days, not 9. But like myxxd says, it’s likely those who rushed to buy it on Thursday would have done so if it’d come out on Friday instead.

Her sales are correct? She sold 11,547 downloads, making her the best selling download of the week. Then with her streaming units added she did 70,721 overall.

 

Westlife sold 8,567 downloads and 1,667 CDs, the rest from streaming (10,441).

so their biggest sales from this week are from streaming?! :o :o

but still they ranked #90 in audio streams. where and when can we see the video streams chart?

Yep! It is kind of unusual for a Top 40 hit to only have 50% of its weekly sales come from streaming. 33 songs in this week's Top 40 have 80%+ of their weekly sales from streaming.

well we know for an old act like them it's already an achievement to have streaming as 50 percent of their sales and in 2019

does video streams come only from youtube?

do we have the streaming figures from last week?
