So Sam was on Radio 1, 2, 4, X and Capital, Heart this morning, and The One Show on TV

Talked about on Breakfast, GMB, Lorraine, Packed Lunch, Loose Women, Jeremy Vine etc

 

And I expect he'll do the TV circuit tomorrow. So hope all this publicity helps the momentum going

another aquafina smash coming with rainfall :cheeseblock:

 

Surprised it wasn't vetoed in BJSC given the prominence of the really well known sample!

It came last in the final so we didn't need to veto it xx

 

Just realised that in the excitement of checking where all the Eurovision songs charted, I totally overlooked earlier that 'N95' has now taken over as Kendrick's highest song on Spotify! I'd much rather have that being the biggest hit from the album than 'Die Hard' so I hope that can hold. He dropped a music video for it the other day as well. Good to see a lot of the tracks only dropping a place or two today (and 'Rich Spirit' actually climbing a place).

 

Looks like '2step' is now glitching out on Apple Music as well, no way people are actually streaming the Chefin (random Brazilian artist) remix that much lol ~

Taylor - Don't blame me is now #38 on Amazon and #98 on Apple!

Sam is still #1 on Apple which is great to see, eagerly awaiting Spotify's update again to see how he is holding up there.

Also still #1 on Amazon, while other EU songs like the Banana song has dropped 14-20 by comparison, so must be. good sign

Spotify has updated!

 

Sam Ryder is down to #2 - 414k

Kalush Orchestra down to #29 which seems decent!

 

Even better...

 

48. Maneskin - SUPERMODEL (+10)

 

 

That's not a bad drop at all, the CD single and huge download lead will be more than offsetting the streaming gap, so he'll still be outselling Harry daily easily, hope he can eat more into Harry's big headstart though! And I guess by tomorrow they could be on more similar daily sales so I hope there's a big push if it's close.

Måneskin have climbed into the top 50? :o was fully expecting them to drop now the performance effect has worn off, pleasantly surprised :wub:

Harry 459K vs Sam 414K

Also surprising IFTK up to #10! non a Tion Wayne fan but La Roux back in the charts is great to see

I guess that confirms that Harry will be #1 unless Sam manages to get a decent amount of physicals sold. Finishing 2nd in Eurovision and peaking at #2 in the official charts

My CD single has just shipped - hopefully there is a few sales to be added from that which haven’t been already.

Sam down to #2 as expected but getting a second day over 400k is good going, hope he will continue to hold up well after this now the initial post-Eurovision dropoff is out of the way. Great to see Kalush still in the top 30 too, a bigger second day drop than Måneskin but still not bad at all, hopefully that should still be enough to put them on course for top 40 this week! And speaking of Måneskin, another climb today for 'SUPERMODEL' was unexpected, very promising, would be fantastic if this can turn into another legit hit for them.

 

Other Eurovision/adjacent stuff in today's update:

 

60 (-30) Subwoolfer - Give That Wolf A Banana

109 (-22) Mika - Grace Kelly

117 (**) Chanel - SloMo (Eurovision's Dancebreak Edit)

135 (-33) MARO - saudade, saudade

163 (-67) Mahmood and BLANCO - Brividi

169 (-125) Cornelia Jakobs - Hold Me Closer

183 (-134) Chanel - SloMo

186 (-73) S10 - De Diepte

190 (-30) Måneskin - I WANNA BE YOUR SLAVE

 

'saudade, saudade' holding up so well seems very random...! And a weirdly big drop for Cornelia (shocked to see her falling behind Mahmood as well as MARO) although I thought her song was very overrated so not complaining oops. Interesting that the Eurovision version of 'SloMo' has already caught on more than the original, with its 2 versions combined it is comfortably ahead of Subwoolfer.

 

Eurovision aside today is a great update for Kendrick, most of his tracks are climbing again (including 'The Heart Part 5') *.* still 3 tracks in the top 10 ('N95' holding at #5, 'Die Hard' up 1 to #6, 'Father Time' holding at #9), really hoping he can maintain that on Friday's chart although unsure given his third track was already as low as #9 in yesterday's update.

wow I take it Chanel would be at around #41 combined!!!! thats pretty surprising

Cornelia has a second ‘Eurovision version’ that was on the Eurovision playlist on Spotify, my guess is that’s just outside the top 200 and combined she’s a fair bit higher, but still a shame to see her so low already.

Ah right, that would make sense then (much like the apparently huge drop for Chanel).

Oh OK maybe a top 40 for Maneskin after all. Their position in the update made it look like they'd be just top 60 or something (of course that being without yesterday's huge jumps included coming into effect).
