June 17, 20232 yr Author It's out now - the purple HMV one is now part of their Vinyl Week releases which are on sale today (although my pre-order of it was still fulfilled and got dispatched yesterday): @1669708526871035904 The colours look absolutely stunning on these 😍
June 19, 20232 yr Are we expecting this to even go anywhere near the top 100? There are a few songs on the album that I quite like ('Don't Worry' and 'Fantasy' in particular) but I'm not sure it's generally regarded as a very good album, is it? 'Everything Eventually' was a nice song too although I don't know what they were thinking with that lyric about the spider in the bathtub :lol: Edited June 19, 20232 yr by Mangø
June 19, 20232 yr Author Both my white and purple copies arrived today (actually, the Amazon one did on Saturday, but I ended up requesting a replacement cause the sleeve got scuffed in transit which I wasn't happy about, so they sent me a replacement one!) As I said when this thread first started, I knew realistically this was unlikely to re-enter the chart but to have it on vinyl at all is what I'm really overjoyed about. It's still one of my all time favourite albums and it's such a beautifully done reissue. I will treasure it for sure!
June 21, 20232 yr The only reason I wanted it to officially chart is because we might end up getting a sales figure for it. I assume that won't happen now.
June 21, 20232 yr It was midweek #199 on Tuesday, that was 503 sales, including 499 from vinyl, 3 from CD (surprising!), 0 downloads and 1 sale from streaming *_*
June 21, 20232 yr Oh my :o who is listening to this?! At least Don't Worry should finally br on streaming and youtubr again.
June 21, 20232 yr It was midweek #199 on Tuesday, that was 503 sales, including 499 from vinyl, 3 from CD (surprising!), 0 downloads and 1 sale from streaming *_* Fair play - I wasn’t expecting them to shift 500 vinyl copies!
June 21, 20232 yr 500 in the UK alone isn't too bad - there'll be a bunch of overseas sales plus I assume some stores will stock copies of it. It's a forgotten flop album so how much could they expect really?
June 23, 20232 yr Author Obviously no sign of this on the top 100 this week, but: #22 on Independent Album Chart #28 on Vinyl Album Chart #46 on Physical Album Chart Not a shabby set of statistics at all, that!
June 29, 20231 yr Author I have it on good word from Popjustice that a digital deluxe edition of the album plus the three singles (b-sides, remixes and all) are arriving on streaming and download tomorrow!
July 1, 20231 yr Both my white and purple copies arrived today (actually, the Amazon one did on Saturday, but I ended up requesting a replacement cause the sleeve got scuffed in transit which I wasn't happy about, so they sent me a replacement one!) Urgh same - did you go through the returns process to get a replacement?
