32 about 12 weeks into it's run is great! Especially for a predominently fan-base heavy act like Little Mix, who often rely on a lot of promo!

 

It's honestly doing about as expected at this point I'd say. If it avoids ACR... BONUS! :D

If they keep up this rate they should avoid ACR!!

23 in todays update.

Up to 18 on Itunes for whatever reason.

I am so confused with the Youtube views for this. Both the official and lyric videos only have 5 million views. Is the video locked to UK only or something?! Even Bounce Back has managed to get over 40 million.

Nope open worldwide...

 

I don’t understand it either...Have they really become that irrelevant outside the Uk.

 

I’m guessing the fact the video came out 3 weeks after release didn’t help and the fact it’s mostly felt figures rather than the girls?

 

Seems so so so low still...Worries me for future videos though.

It's such a fun video too! One of the better pop videos made during quarantine that I've seen. But yeah, I won't be too concerned for video views for this myself just coz it was released in such an odd time and under very unusual circumstance. If the next video is similar in views but with a full/usual release effect, I'll be a lot more concerned (but even then, as long as it's an actual hit like BUS I won't care tbh)

Youtube has lost a bit of its strenght (only latin and korean artists, besides the obvious huge releases, seem to still do very well there) and a lot of people didn't mind the BUS video even in the fanbase so I don't see how it'd have many more views outside, it's not something I've replayed myself and it was released late so it lost a good portion of the streams it'd have received.

 

Bounce Back had very poor views too 2 months after its release and it was a great video. Wasabi's video did (and is doing) better for instance, so it's a mix of it being just an animated video, not very replay worthy, the late release and Youtube's and the girls' lost of strength. I'm sure an actual video released back at the end of March would've had at least 20 million views now.

Down to 44 but 4,000 ish streams more than last Monday.

 

Surely they have to avoid ACR now...

I would see its more or less confirmed. They are around 35,000 higher on spotify this week already. That will give them a massive advantage in avoiding it. 3 more weeks top 40 :wub:

Do we think they’ll necessarily drop from the Top 40 once ACR hits?

Im thinking so, yeah. I might be wrong but i say its very likely

Do we think they’ll necessarily drop from the Top 40 once ACR hits?

Yeah 100% would drop from the top 40 on ACR.

Oh for sure. They'll drop about 20-ish places once ACR hits, I reckon. Which is why avoiding it will be beneficial! What a lovely thought that it could potentially avoid ACR again :wub:

Does anyone remember which of their singles was the first one released after the ACR rules kicked in?

I think it was Woman Like Me? But I've also saw people say it would be a million seller if it wasn't for ACR which confused me because I thought the rule only affected the chart position and not the actual sales overall?

Still 44 on Spotify with 105,829 streams. Still up from last week.

It's nothing to do with ACR. It's the sales ratio. I remember a lot of people trying to explain this to you on Popjustice when you said WLM's sales were disappointing. The way all singles from WLM onward's sales are slower sales gainers because the chart stopped counting free streams as 100:1 and instead are 600:1 (or something similar).

Still 44 on Spotify with 105,829 streams. Still up from last week.

It’s actually down on last week I think by about 100 streams.

I think they mean in total for this week so far
