April 27, 20205 yr I don't really get why you're so keen on trying to downplay Dua's success. I know there's the other extreme in this thread too but her sales are about as good as she can expect for a month-old album, with most shops shut and supermarkets not focusing on entertainment stock during a pandemic. She's doing amazingly well! That said, let's not pretend she's holding up the industry alone either - let's keep perspective guys x I am sure Kath meant more about female artists perspective which let's be real album charts have mostly been dominated by males for years!!!
April 28, 20205 yr I'd say female artists dominate the charts too when I think of albums that have done crazy well in the charts my first thought is Adele, Dido, Amy Winehouse.... there're both actually males and females doing well... for every Ed Sheeran there's a Dido
April 28, 20205 yr Has there been a female album selling over 1M during the streaming era though apart from Adele? Has Jess Glynne done it?
April 28, 20205 yr Which Jess Glynne album you mean? I cry when I laugh is well > 1 million, It was certified 4 x platinum so should be over 1.2 million... her last one is close to 400k... which is good... nowadays no one sells like before... even Ed is "only" on 2 x platinum for the 6 Project... and even Lewis Capaldi has not reach a million oh and Little Mix album 4 also did > 1 million

April 28, 20205 yr f*** that was a waste of 44K sales chart wise, I don't think they will do it now. I love TW but really I'm sick of this song now and there is nothing new or fresh and who knows when it will be until things will get back to normal, it's gonna stay WW forever.
April 28, 20205 yr Come on Abel! That Lounge thing is awful... Dont Rush being reset must be very frustrating for non-fans
April 28, 20205 yr I really like that Live Lounge cover of Times Like These but I'm fine with it missing the number one spot and just having a second week in the top five, that's much better than I thought it would do when it was released! Plus it would be great to see Blinding Lights take that record for most stints at number one in the same run, and I have no objections to that song spending a while longer at number one either! :wub:
April 28, 20205 yr Fantastic to see the Weeknd back at #1 for a record fourth stint. I wonder if Say So is back in the top ten yet?
