January 17, 20205 yr This tweet to seemed to mobilise the fan base to get buying: @1217845315807531008 Not sure I believe that there was only 100 left though... by Wednesday's mids (5 days of sales) she had sold 1,703 physicals. After a full 7 days, that increased to 10,707 physicals (5,122 of which are cassettes!). She's ended up being #1 in the physical chart.
January 17, 20205 yr The standard edition was £4.99 on Amazon last night when I looked (still opted for the deluxe at £10.99 though :lol:), so I don't know how long it's been at that price for, and if it's maybe had some impact?

Do we know if it counts as a sale when your order it or when it ships because I ordered one of the cassette bundles on Friday but it didn’t ship until Wednesday and arrived the next day which could help explain it.
January 18, 20205 yr Her final number is expected to be 116,000 in the US with Roddy projected to finish with 109,000k! Her label were smart releasing two new videos for like lose you to love me and look at me now because Youtube is probably why she’s going to be #1 Also her insta story asking people to stream her album on every platform because it’s close to number one.... y’all can no longer drag Justin.
January 18, 20205 yr Her asking her fans to stream the album to help it get to #1 is absolutely nothing close to what Justin did tho xx that's a totally reasonable level of self-promotion. (also I am pretty sure Roddy Ricch was the biggest gainer from YouTube being added to the albums chart last week and even then it was only a few thousand so there's no way that made the difference even if Selena did beat him on YT this week) This going to #2 in the UK is really impressive after she never made even the top 10 before! Catching up with the chart now and was definitely not expecting that... (makes sense if it was a late physical push that put it up there but it has been holding up well during the week and looked like it may have been top 3 even without that).
January 18, 20205 yr for what I grasp, the contribution from YT to album sales is just 2-3k, not really much
February 21, 20205 yr think they put all the eggs in one basket (Lose You To Love Me) and didn't buy any other good songs, this is mediocre to say the least
April 6, 20205 yr Deluxe version of the album, including three new tracks, will be out March 6.Out April 9. @1247255304196067329
April 6, 20205 yr That’s pretty fast for a re release tbh but good to see she’s donating for the corona cause. Interested to check out the new songs too the original tracklist still had some potential on there for me tbh for future single choices.
April 7, 20205 yr Very quick and possibly to quick but they are probably trying to keep the momentum going.
April 9, 20205 yr The 3 new tracks are all pretty good. A lot better than the deluxe tracks from The Weeknd's album at least. My initial rankings would be... 1. Souvenir 2. She 3. Boyfriend I don't know why they felt the need to change the track-listing order so much though. Spotify Link:
April 9, 20205 yr Weird choice to switch up the track order, seems they're much closer to the order of Spotify streams now, not sure why though
April 10, 20205 yr Your love is fading Is this a reference to 'Boyfriend'? I was just coming here to say the bassline reminds me so much of 'Fade'.

Boyfriend I don't know why they felt the need to change the track-listing order so much though. A relatively new trend that I absolutely hate — changing the sequencing of an album purely because of streams. 'Boyfriend' is almost interesting but I could just listen to 'Fade' and have a superior experience.
