Guessing the album still missed out on some streams by the end of the week. Strange to see the album with less streams than Golden.

I think so too, a shame that there's seemingly a problem there. Unfortunately Abbey Road didn't re-enter the Top 200 anyway :drama: Would have been interesting to have an update for it, if we're to assume that streams of Kylie's hits have been attached to that for a while now!

The OCC did give an update in March and they had it on 235k, up 40k on the total from the end of its chart run. I'm guessing most of them will have been from streams.
Kylie isn't really a streaming artist though? I mean on her GH there are several tracks that have less than 10M listens on Spotify despite being among her biggest hits (Slow, Loco-Motion, Better the Devil etc). And new music is always more streamed for the first couple of weeks out of the gate.

Ooh nice! I was hoping it might have been closer to 300k, but still very decent!

Indeed she isn't a streaming artist, but nevertheless in the Wednesday midweeks 'Abbey Road Sessions' had approximately 75% of the streams that Step Back in Time had, which stands out as being rather unlikely. Abbey Road Sessions is seemingly getting streaming data from some of the hit versions of the songs that are included on that album, which really should have been contributing to Step Back in Time instead.

But if you look at the streaming numbers on Spotify next to songs, they are not very high on either of the album and none of the songs were top 200 on Spotify's daily rankings. So the number (1,225) seems very reasonable to me. Bruce Springsteen's latest got 2K from streaming and that was all new album.

Impressed with how this is holding up -

 

iTunes #4 (#2 artist album)

 

Apple Music #40

 

Amazon

Standard CD #6

Deluxe CD #14

Green Vinyl #17

Up to 3 on Itunes again

 

Amazon 4,15,17

 

Should do ok first Saturday after glastonbury performance. Sun is shining.

 

Could she stay top 10 this week that would be amazing. Not sure who else released

Would be shocked if it’s any lower than Top 5 - Kylie has never fallen from #1 to lower than #4 with any of her previous albums.

I think it’s a certainty that she’ll remain Top 10, and more than likely Top 5. I don’t think there’s any need to be concerned about its week 2 performance.

Great to see it holding up

 

Back up to 3 on Itunes with 1 compilation ahead of it

 

Back up on 2 on Amazon with Killers discounted album ahead. Other versions 17 and 20 on Amazon.

 

I am now more optimistic of it staying top 10 this week maybe even too 5. But let's see not going to get carried away. If it sells more than 5k this week I will be very happy

I'm cautiously optimistic for a 10,000+ second week... we'll see!

 

After the green vinyl price kept changing on Amazon from £24.99 to £18.18 and back again, it's now exactly £20.

With this being a greatest hits I have no clue as to what to expect. The fact it went to #1 is enough for me and I know that all streams are going to be allocated to this collection's total for the foreseeable, so whatever happens I know it will do well. It's been mentioned that they have a plan leading up to Christmas and there's suggestion that there could be a re-release with a third bonus disc which, if done correctly, could really see fans flock to buy it. Give us studio version of That's Why They Write Love Songs !!!

I feel so proud right now for Kylie. Us fans have always seen her appeal but there's something so rewarding about seeing the general public realise their love for Kylie again.

 

Maybe getting a bit carried away but I hope she gets some sort of award at the BRIT Awards next year, like the Lifetime Achievement thing where she gets to perform a medley. That could really increase the momentum towards a new studio album, hopefully next year!

:wub: That would be perfect, I really hope she's considered for the award! It would be the perfect time & truly deserved.

 

 

 

Number of cassettes left:

99+ Clear, Green & White

94 Pink

81 Gold

 

So there's a minimum of 472 copies left.

Casual purchases on Saturday in HMV should be good as it will number 1 when you walk in.
