October 18, 20222 yr i dunno if i'll open flood gates saying this... but wasn't it always going to be #1?
October 18, 20222 yr Author Yeah pretty much, save for RHCP selling as well as last time but that was unlikely.
October 18, 20222 yr i dunno if i'll open flood gates saying this... but wasn't it always going to be #1? Yes, you're right on this occasion x ~ The first 3 singles from this have all been decent enough - better on the whole than the singles from the last album bar 'Frail State Of Mind' - but I just can't bring myself to care about them really. I do love DJ Sabrina getting some mainstream exposure (sort of) but 'Happiness' is not her best work really, if anything that's probably my least favourite of those singles oops (but really I like them all roughly the same amount).
October 18, 20222 yr Author ‘About You’ seems to be going somewhat viral on TikTok currently! That would explain it reaching a new peak on Spotify today.
October 23, 20222 yr Author and it was of course their fifth #1 album! 'Oh Caroline' charted at #29, making it their second Top 40 of the era. Hopefully 'About You' will be able to join it soon...
November 1, 20222 yr 'Looking For Somebody (To Love)' is great and sounds more single-y than the singles they've actually released, why didn't they go with this one?
November 2, 20222 yr Author You’ve got to save some bangers for the album! And tbh, radio/streaming might not have been alright pushing a song about school shootings? Oh and ‘About You’ charted at #62 this week thanks to TikTok!
November 3, 20222 yr i feel like they might push 'Wintersong' next? They'll be finished promoting the album by next month anyway.
November 3, 20222 yr Author ‘Wintering’ ;) would be a fab choice! I suspect it’ll be ‘About You’ next anyway with the attention it’s received. I wouldn’t bet on the album promo being done next month either, the Brief Inquiry promo went on quite a while, it’s just Notes that got caught short with covid. They’ve got a UK tour next year!
November 4, 20222 yr I just came across 'About You' in a playlist and I'm much preferring it to everything else I've heard from this era! TikTok users having taste :kink:
November 7, 20222 yr Is Matt okay lately :unsure: I keep seeing videos of him on TikTok completely off it at his gigs.
November 7, 20222 yr Author Is Matt okay lately :unsure: I keep seeing videos of him on TikTok completely off it at his gigs. People actually at the show say he's just acting, since there's a bit of theatrical 'performance' between the two halves of the set. He had to literally point that out the other night :lol:
November 12, 20222 yr Saw "About You" popping in SE Asian countries on Spotify. Sounds promising hearing for the first time at TikTok.
December 7, 20222 yr Author A video for ‘Oh Caroline’ is currently being teased! Good to see ‘Part of the Band’ make a lot of the big ‘top songs of the year’ lists too.
December 8, 20222 yr In a climate where new albums leave the chart rapidly Being Funny in a Foreign Language is doing very well.
December 23, 20222 yr Author 'About You' has now been added to the Radio 1 playlist! Great to see the album holding up very well in the charts too. 9 weeks in and it's still in the Top 30, 'Notes' only managed 7 weeks in the Top 100!
January 4, 20232 yr Author Their full Madison Square Garden will be available on Amazon Prime Video from Friday!
