Think these are Wednesday midweeks....

Predicted sales: 1046

Predicted position: 135

 

Sales Wow -15%

Big drop after 2-3 very steady days.

It’s just because missing streaming data knocks her down relative to other albums around the top 130.

I just wish her streaming was stronger.

Ideally it would be stronger but, Step Back in Time has picked up streams which is something other releases have suffered greatly from.

 

Most greatest hits in the charts rely massively on streaming. A good example is how Fleetwood Mac's 2002 Best Of..., a main stayer in the Top 40, completely disappeared from the chart when Don't Stop: 50 Years was released and thus took all the streaming points away from the previous compilation. I think the 2002 Best Of... only achieved 200 pure sales or something ridiculously small considering how high it had been in the charts.

 

Step Back in Time seems to be sticking at a level of 400-500 streaming sales, which shows what Kylie's basic streaming is like, so we can assume it'll continue at this rate even when it leaves the chart. Pure sales will continue to decline until there's an offer or Kylie promotes again. Tbh, 600-ish pure sales is pretty solid compared to other compilations.

Ya its holding well to be fair when you look at it like that and if she could getting those streams she would be adding 2k sales a month to her tally.

The album is most likely not going to be near anywhere the Top 100 when we see the midweek information but hopefully Step Back in Time can close the week out with at least 1k sales.

 

If it can hold around 1k sales for a few more weeks I'd be happy with that.

I would too if it could manage close to those weekly sales for a while at the least.

Really not that bad for the end of week, I was expecting a lot lower.

Could be its last week top 200.

I would hope not, i am sure as little as 75-100 sales could make a 25 place difference in this region of the chart.

Ya sales would be close but it always seem to work out that it goes against her. Did sbit get any tv ads?

I dont believe it did.

To be honest, I'm not even really bothered about what it does chartwise in the top 200 from here on out. It did what it was supposed to do as far as I'm concerned, and will keep ticking over.

It has done what we expected, it has sold good, achieved another Number 1 and a decent chart run with more to come.

100k and number 1 was my hope's before the release.

There were TV ads.....loads on ITV morning.

 

It was out of my local Sainsbury’s CD chart too so physical sales are going to fall even more now.
