has she not done a live performance lol?

Nope! All we've seen from her in recent times is the 'Rain On Me' performance with Gaga at the VMAs but that was of course for Gaga's era.

Finishes the week at #4 in the album chart, great to see it back in the top five!

Yesss great to see! The album previously climbed to #5 for the deluxe so the vinyl boost has been even stronger position-wise *.*

 

22 non-consecutive weeks top 40 now :cheer:

So great to see it top 5 again!! :wub: If the good sis could drop the 'pov' video it could maintain a little better! :P

Album understandably coming for a substantial drop with the physical effect wearing off but still top 40 in the mids at least!

this is also really cool to see <3

Dropped to #34 this week - a 23rd week in the top 40.

 

Here's how many weeks her previous albums have spent there:

 

Yours Truly: 1

My Everything: 16

Dangerous Woman: 26 (great longevity for this considering the #1 to #8 drop!)

Sweetener: 30

thank u, next: 38

Down to #41 (:cry:) this week - hopefully 'pov' now finally being pushed will help it creep back in!

Good to see 'positions' still riding high in the States! I imagine Dua will remain at the top, with 'Levitating' going from strength to strength right now, but hopefully 'pov' climbing the chart will help Ari out a bit over there.

Well this era is honestly going no where. There's no 'pov' music video in sight, nor any promo. Looks like we're on to the next. Her album cycles are always far too short.

I hate this current trend of only releasing like 2 singles then moving on :(

Same! That's why I'm so thrilled with what Dua is doing, milking the album for every possible single. Ariana has missed out on so many smash hits and in turn probably album sales too. Imagine how huge 'Dangerous Woman' could have been with 'Greedy', 'Be Alright' and then 'Touch It' and I mean 'bloodline', 'NASA' and 'bad idea' all got certified anyway. :lol:

 

Here we easily could have got a big 'pov' push with video in early Spring, 'motive' for Summer and then maybe a 'test drive' remix.

Yeah it's a shame :( I know music videos aren't the be-all and end-all like they once were but they can still impact - see 'MONTERO' or something like 'Sweet Melody', a few singles into a campaign, where the video was praised a lot.

 

Shall wait and see as I really did think that dance video for 'pov' was going to be followed up by a proper one

Yeah a good video would easily help propell something like pov or notice, just look at Save Your Tears, Watermelon Sugar, Levitating, Confetti...all post album singles and huge (or going on to be) hits

Has anyone heard this in spatial audio on Apple Music?! Omg it's stunning :wub:

i just heard a clip and thought it was heavenly.

So, we got a 'pov' live performance today as posted in the single thread and other songs are being teased now starting with 'off the table':

I'm sure they'd smash this one live!
