It's been a while since The Beatles last had a hit :(

 

They should update their style and get Ringo to do a grime beat.

When happen freezing monkeys ak artic monkeys there had few number 1

They actually have to release something :lol:

 

If their new music is a more commercial sound, I can see them getting a top 10 single.

Streaming has been really good for Arctic Monkeys! The new sound was the issue for people with the last album but AM and WPSIATWIN are constantly hovering in the top 50 albums and I doubt it’s physicals only keeping them afloat.
'AM' is Top 20 on streaming! I can definitely see them getting a hit with their next release if it's more commercial. I mean, even their last album opened with 18k streams which, to put into context, was slightly more than what Ariana's album that year did.

the last Arctics album did very well despite them going the uncommercial route,

if they had released AM part 2 the sales would have been gigantic

 

they are also lucky that a few of their songs have become TikTok staples

that's why they're charting at the moment, it's cos of TikTok

and funnily it's Miley's cover of Why You'd Only Call Me that's a TikTok

but her cover is not available so people are streaming the original

They were never going to release AM part 2, so it will be interesting to see what their next sound will be like - I reckon it'll be something quite funky.

I know by why not? album 5 changed sound but for the first records they did stick to their formula

It was 5 years later, I think it would've been weird to tread the same sounds as they did in 2013. Especially with The Last Shadow Puppets' second album inbetween. And I'd argue that they didn't "stick to their formula" for the first albums, perhaps the first two - but Humbug and Suck It And See are quite different to the others.

1st and 2nd albums were clones,

3rd and 4th too but not as good material

 

but they were hardly doing a Radiohead with each album release, more like sticking to the winning formula

What happen hard-fi

 

It started going downhill for them when they collaborated with the Cheeky Girls :(

Sia had a big comeback during the streaming era.

 

And didn't Derulo just have a #1 hit after being away for a while.

 

These comebacks are anomalies anyway, they might happen but are very unlikely in general.

 

Sia’s a unique case. Very few people will remember her for a fluke #10 hit in 2000. Plus, it’s not like she’s been lighting the charts up recently

 

Jason Derulo is barely 30 and got very lucky to hop on a Tik Tok trend. Maybe when he has a solo #1

 

The average age on the charts is much, much lower now than it was 20, 30 years ago

Would be a fair point to make if that was the only hit he's had recently, but he's had another fairly big hit since then that wasn't just hopping on a TikTok trend and a couple of other minor hits too.

But still, she really broke through during the streaming era. I'd say Breathe Me was also bigger than her #10 hit Taken for Granted.
