However it’s Kylie’s first Top 40 hit single there in 11 years! The chart run is 39-55-40, so that’s 2 weeks Top 40 so far. By her recent standards she’s doing really well. Not to the extent of the UK, of course.

 

Say Something’s first few weeks in the Australian charts, to really put it into perspective: 120-477-288-203-447…

Oh yes...totally happy for her. But again, just another example of how she's always owned the UK and never quite could own her country the same way! The UK really loves her!

That Hannah Laing one has climbed astronomically since the start of the week, I have a feeling it may be a bit hard to catch now. Hoping 'Trojan Horse' is at least catchable.

 

It'll certainly be interesting to see what difference the cassettes make here!

 

My head agrees with you. But the data is more ambiguous.

 

Yesterday’s one day figures show they are pretty close:

 

Kylie: 3,314

Hannah: 3,368

 

Add to this, the fact that it doesn’t include Kylie being the highest climber in the top 100 on Spotify on Monday (those figures will be included today) suggests that Kylie can catch Hannah with the cassettes.

 

Amazing news about the viral charts! Songs seem to suddenly reach a threshold where they can be included. Hopefully it can climb there too!

What’s a Hannah Laing?

I have just tweaked my estimates for the number of cassettes Kylie needs to sell to overtake songs this week. It is slightly less optimistic.

 

At the current rate, I estimate that she would need the following:

 

650 cassette sales to overtake Hannah Laing to reach #12

1700 cassette sales to overtake Loreen to reach #11

1750 cassette sales to overtake Dave/Central Cee, Trojan Horse to reach #10

2800 cassette sales to overtake Rema to reach #9

 

I have also put that Dave will overtake Loreen now.

 

There are still a couple of things this doesn’t take into consideration.

 

Songs doing well on Amazon will be easier to catch (Loreen - and staying above David Guetta, Dua Lipa, Fifty Fifty, Lewis Capaldi).

 

Songs doing less well on Amazon will be tougher to catch (Hannah Laing, Dave + CC - Trojan Horse - whilst UK Rap could overtake).

 

But what Kylie does have in her favour is the fact that she has momentum on Spotify and this data doesn’t include her peak day of Monday.

 

I’m going to go for the chart looking like this without cassette sales:

 

8/9 Harry Styles and Rema

10 Trojan Horse

11 Hannah Laing

12 Loreen

13 UK Rap

14 Kylie

15/16/17 David Guetta/Dua Lipa/Fifty Fifty

 

There will be a big gap between Loreen and UK Rap; and a big gap between Kylie/UK Rap and the chasing pack. Therefore, it may be the case that the only impact that the cassettes have is keeping Kylie above UK Rap, therefore being 13, not 14, though both Hannah and Loreen are in her sights. Looking at the current trajectory, I feel that overtaking Trojan Horse, and a top 10 place might be a bit too much to hope for.

 

We will know more after today’s update.

Looking forward to today's update and also an update on cassettes shipped.

They’re shipping tomorrow aren’t they?

The Hannah Laing song is being tipped as a possible No.1 and is just taking off big time.

I think it will probably only climb as the week goes on, so I don't think Padam will catch it.

What’s a Hannah Laing?

 

Like an Eliza Rose, but 2023.

Bobbing up and down the UK Airplay Chart….up to 2 again on rolling…1 is Dua Lipa.

 

PP Airplay improved last week despite it falling to 3 from 2….Dua had a huge increase though so must be picking up many valuable plays. Last weeks numbers…

Final day to make your actual streams count - currently switching between PP playlists on Spotify, YT and Apple Music (all the ones I have premium accounts with).

I think they will look at todays chart and make a decision on the Cassettes being shipped tomorrow or from Friday.......

 

Have we any word on the Erika Jayne remix for 16th June or any remix due next week?

 

Holding steady on itunes 1,11,18

 

Would love to see it charting very low in a few other countries as those Apple numbers seem to be doing more now in 20+ countries and climbing.

They’re shipping tomorrow aren’t they?

 

Yeah, the 15th. I wouldn't be shocked if some people get dispatch notices today.

I’m certain cassettes will count for this week - in order history it says the release date is Thursday.

:angry:

Silver lining is she's closer to #10 than she is to #15! She's 908 ahead of #15. Bring on the cassettes. :drama:

Bring on the remixes. What are they waiting for!!

It's all so damn close.

I’ve just done a little bit of number crunching about Kylie’s sales this week.

 

These are her current positions:

 

#14 overall up to Tuesday’s chart (down from #13)

#15 overall on additional sales since the previous day (Fifty Fifty are marginally higher - but overall she is 1,104 ahead of them)

 

This means that the songs above Kylie are all pulling away from her, but she is pulling away from all but one of the songs below her.

 

In streaming ‘sales’, the picture is also looking very positive :

 

#17 overall on the week to date (same as yesterday).

#17 for streaming ‘sales’ since the previous day - she was #15 yesterday but David Guetta and Dua Lipa have pulled back ahead of her.

 

I’ll look at her final chart position and the impact of cassette sales later.

#25 on Spotify!! :cheeseblock:
