I don't remember if I've already commented on this. Shawn has brought it with this. I love the song, and the whole aesthetic is beautiful, especially given the shite time we live in and how hard it must be to actually make something look good. I hope it's a massive hit everywhere.

I'd be shocked if it were top 20 on Friday

 

But only one of his post-breakthrough singles peaked on week 1 so I'm not bothered right now

This song has very strong Spotify promo, so there’s no reason why it shouldn’t be debuting a lot higher, especially after Senorita. His iTunes performance is also weak.

 

 

I agree it could be doing better, but I don't think there's any cause for concern yet. Senorita is an outlier in his discography to be fair, it had a lot of hype for the collab aspect, it was a more Spotify-friendly song, while this is similar to In My Blood which was actually hindered by streaming! That one only made the top 10 because of an advert boosting it on iTunes. There's nothing to suggest it won't yet pick up!
I'm not denying that it's an underperformance, I've already said I'm actually a bit disappointed by its performance so far! My point is that we can't come to conclusions in week 1, there is a lot of potential for it to climb as time goes on.
Kind of shocked at how badly this is underperforming at the moment, not gonna lie. Senorita was an outlier but even so you'd think he'd be safe for a Top 20 debut. It's not even as if there's many shows on the air they can rush him on for a quick bit of promo either, not the greatest start to the era which is a shame because the song is great.

Like Joseph says, there is still potential for it to climb, however underwhelming it may be to see it so low in its first week. We can keep our fingers crossed!

Now up from #3 to #1 on iTunes in Brazil. Clearly just the UK showing they have no taste at the moment x
I think this is a great return for him. It channels what he is good at but adds more grandeur and atmosphere making way for a new era and tweak to his sound. I hope it picks up a bit and becomes a hit of some sort. Whether it does or doesn't though, I am glad we have this as the lead.

Shame it couldn't just sneak top 20, but hopefully it can stick around there! I'm starting to feel like if Monster is out at the end of the month, they might not care so much about how this performs too.
It's looking quite solid at #21 - any higher this week is unlikely but I also can't see it dropping as things stand!
