Kylie should win in week one.

 

She has more formats, her pre order has been out way longer, she’s very active with promo but her fanbase is mega dedicated too. Like she still has a huge amount of stans and there’s a lot of goodwill towards Kylie too she’s really managed to get the GP on board with her in a way that’s pretty impressive tbh.

 

Little Mix may well sell more in the long run but then again their last album sold a lot less than their previous ones and LM5 had a massive lead single chart wise even though it’s divisive on here. Kylie doesn’t need a huge single to sell an album but right now Little Mix do. It could be close but I think Kylie will get the #1 debut.

 

 

Kylie has been very lucky with the public generally having good will for her she has always remained hugely popular in that way.

If we experience another lockdown which looks increasingly likely, sales of both albums may suffer sadly particularly in relation to the physical sales and this could impact on Kylie’s chart position more as most of her fans tend to buy physicals.

I think Little Mix have just announced lots of formats like Kylie no?

Kylie Fans sat at home doing nothing but on Amazon and her website. Gosh she could well a load lol.

 

I think a picture disc and another cassette variant should be released.

Looks like an easy win for them now.

 

Kylie would have to release a lot more than she has done. Fans would buy buy doubt BMG will do it

Kylie should win the race but lose the battle.

Do you mean win the battle (get to #1) but lose the war (overall total sales)?

If BMG are sensible they'll plan some new cassette versions. They still have plenty of time, 7 weeks to go! They're relatively cheap and quicker to produce than vinyl. I think it'll be too late for them to plan a new vinyl (i.e. picture disc), assuming it isn't in the works already. Labels have to book vinyl production many weeks or months in advance to ensure it's ready for release date.

 

I find it odd they've only gone with 1 cassette for DISCO considering how many there were for Step Back in Time. Plus label mates Steps have 6 cassettes. DISCO should get some with a different colour cassette shell, or they could have alternative artwork versions. Better still, they'd encourage her to sign some copies. That's another edge Little Mix have over Kylie - they had some signed CDs and vinyl up for pre-order (but they've sold out already).

I think little mix will throw everything at this to try and get the number 1 also, the multi formats such as cassettes is a first for them.

Kylie should do

 

D - Cassette 1

I - Cassette 2

S - Cassette 3

C - Cassette 4

O - Cassette 5

 

So that OCD Kylie Fans can have fun putting them in order and have to buy all 5

The other thing is how many cassettes and vinyls will be made for Little Mix? Kylie may have a bigger run at the manufacturers

If she was to do that she should do it with the cd version.

Ha, that wouldn't be a bad idea tbh. Carly Rae Jepsen did this with her recent album actually... she released 3 cassettes of different colours, with her initials on each spine - C R and J.

 

Hopefully BMG have something in mind anyway.

Little Mix have announced a lot of bundles as mentioned already but the prices are obscene - 4 picture discs for £90 (Or £25 each separately), 4 cassettes for £36.

 

Whilst LM have a passionate fan base like Kylie they also now have tour tickets to pay for which might stop them from dropping £100+ on vinyl and cassettes. Also a standard CD for £11 and Deluxe for £17 :blink:

BMG will keep an eye on this hopefully and up the ante if need be.

I think we need to see what single 2 is like.... I am perched to hear it and a video and what promo she has lined up.

 

Imagine a Disco bundle of Say Something Vinyl, single 2 CD, Cassette special edition for £25 quid? Lol

I always get excited to hear new kylie music so i am looking forward to seeing what single 2 has to offer.

Me too.

 

I can't wait to think we have 16 Kylie songs to discuss in 6 weeks time and we will all have our favourite

Hopefully Little Mix have shot themselves in the foot by announcing the tour at the same time. That allows Kylie to hold off and just announce more formats if that's in the plan! *.*
