As River reaches a new peak of #14 in the UK today, let’s look back at the peaks of her previous singles.

 

Close to Me #17

Flux #97

Sixteen #21

Hate Me #33

River #14

 

Why has River connected with the GP so much? Should Ellie release more ballads in the future?

Pity streams

River the new lead single 😍😍

Connected with the public? Surely 99% of people aren’t even aware of its existence and have just accidentally streamed it without even knowing 🤷🏼‍♀️

 

But good for her I guess!

Omg

 

The most fake hit ever, but I’ll take it!

Flux deserved so much better :(

Maybe all her future releases should be Amazon-exclusive for the rest of her career! :thinking:

Flux deserved so much better :(

It’s her best song!

Not heard it, didn’t even realise she’d released it

Not heard it, didn’t even realise she’d released it

Her career teas

Not heard it, didn’t even realise she’d released it

This is exactly what I thought when I saw the chart last week :lol:

Ellie showing Nadine how it’s done by going exclusive with a streaming company.

 

Ellie’s next album, amazon only.

Ohhh it's Amazon only. This is what happened with Katy Perry's Christmas song, I don't really fully believe it unless they are literally playing it first everytime someone asks Alexa to play music. No one ever answers Amazon if you ask them what streaming service they use :lol:

I think the majority of Amazon Music subscribers are older

I AM ON AMAZON MUSIC THANKS TO ALEXA!!!!

 

So I tried this oot. I asked Alexa to play Xmas music. Thr first song was that AWFUL AWFUL Wham borefest, then it was Slade or Wizard with Christmas Everyday, then it was Ariana Grande, then pop brat Justin Bibber!!!!, and then Ellie. She gets played FIFTH. If those other awful songs aren't higher than her, then I very much doubt the data they're giving the charts. I skipped about 20 songs in their playlist and no Leona or Mariah!!! Just shit.

Wham is higher officially, by one position :P

 

Ariana, Wizzard and Slade are all above Ellie in sales too, but all three are on ACR. 'River' would be only at #26 without ACR pushing down the old songs.

Blame amazon for its atrocious playlisting tbh! It needs to have Mariah and Leona as one and two, then its payola exclusives, and then far better songs than pop brat justin bibber and Ariana's lifeless Xmas droning!
