Glad it’s being added to both albums - will give it a stream boost at least.

Well Kylie has definitely been busy. If she is jetting off to Australia as soon as the media is saying then she will want all videos, promo stuff booked. I am guessing she won't leave the UK until after this release week, especially if it is Jessie Ware being pushed as they will surely have a strictly performance and keeps herself busy on release week

Im assuming Kylie plans to be home in Australia well before Christmas itself.

Yes me too.....

 

Probably get any promo filmed then get back for December?

 

I am hoping for a remix or two of this song or even a Kylie solo version etc. All helps streaming which is currently 7,510,000 per month on Spotify

Do years and years get radio 1 playlisted?

 

Yep, they still do. Or at least they have up until the last single which didn't exactly do brilliantly, so the jury's out on whether the new single 'Crave' will be playlisted.

Gone straight to the radio 2 a playlist (from Saturday)

Was any chart information made available today on its placement?

R2 never fail in their support for Kylie :cheer:

See, I knew they would and that SmileyKylie was speaking too soon!

Whenever Kylie sings "Remember back in 99? We danced like maniacs all night!" I have to smile, because in 1999 there wasn't a song that sounded like ASTM. If this was to be a tribute to the late 90s, this song had to sound different.

It’s showing as an ad now on YouTube not sure how long it’s been marketed that way?

#96 today, nearly 3.5k sold and 400 yesterday.

Shame it won’t be enough this week…do we know what it sold last week?

It will fall close to 1k away from the top 100 i think.

Not sure unfortunately. I imagine if it was released even on Thursday instead of Wednesday it could have been enough to be Top 100 this week.

If it was released even on Thursday or ideally Friday it would be top 100 this week i think.

A shame it's come so close this week but will miss out... but oh well, it'll surely chart in CD single release week.

 

Yesterday's mids showed a 172.4% sales increase since the previous Thursday midweeks, which means it sold 1274 copies on Wednesday 6th October.

 

I'm always going to be frustrated that BMG effectively throw away sales on a Wednesday and/or a Thursday. I'm convinced that the difference between the level of attention she receives on those days versus a Friday is incredibly negligible.

Totally this, iTunes charts are null and void now - we all know you can go Top 3 on iTunes and not trouble the official Top 100, and I doubt if they released on a Friday nobody will comment if she reached #7 on iTunes rather than #4 with a Wednesday release.

 

 

#16 on the sales chart this week, down 3.

The sales from the wed and thurs with a wed release are just list sales and it's frustrating.
