September 28, 20231 yr Really hard to call There is zero zero buzz So my gut says huge underperformance But sure he’ll do all the possible and impossible shenanigans Even offering meals 😀 Not many multiformat but thats smart Cos he doesnt have the crazy fanbase like Lana or Kylie to buy 17 vinyls
September 29, 20231 yr It will do way worse than we think. He just posted there is no single, not a lot of formats, no push (he’s the king of pushing) no hype and bad reviews…
September 29, 20231 yr I swear I don't write for The Guardian :D Review Ed Sheeran: Autumn Variations review – as flat and dull as a grey sky Plodding, genre-hopping songs all end up as unimaginative ballads, their dreary lyrics littered with gibberish – though Sheeran’s hooks remain strong on his second album this year https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/sep/...l-as-a-grey-sky

Worst of all, the album is littered with gibberish. “Saturday night is giving me a reason to rely on the strobe lights,” goes the refrain of Plastic Bag, about a disaffected man who lives for weekend partying. Cannot. Cope. :rofl:
September 29, 20231 yr I went for 60k just because it’s Ed. He should’ve dropped a few singles first before releasing the album
September 29, 20231 yr I went for 60k just because it’s Ed. He should’ve dropped a few singles first before releasing the album There's no singles , no videos it's just an autumn soundtrack released on his own record so no pressure , he posted on tik tok so make of that what you want
September 29, 20231 yr About 50k first week sales. Very little promotion and no single from it. I don’t think the interest is there compared to his other releases.
September 29, 20231 yr I think 42k He is saying this won't get the usual push from him, but I don't trust that whatsoever.
September 30, 20231 yr In the US it’s already half price, 4.99 on iTunes. What about the UK? Must be fighting for number 1 there ^_^ , subtract only got to number 2
September 30, 20231 yr Must be fighting for number 1 there ^_^ , subtract only got to number 2 Spotify charts (September 29) American Town #81 Global · 1,624,649 #116 US · 402,479 #28 UK · 141,840 Magical #80 UK · 100,651 England #134 UK · 84,217 Amazing #176 UK · 76,254 I doubt he will challenge number 1... lol...

September 30, 20231 yr In the US it’s already half price, 4.99 on iTunes. What about the UK? Ha and it has started already.
September 30, 20231 yr Spotify charts (September 29) American Town #81 Global · 1,624,649 #116 US · 402,479 #28 UK · 141,840 Magical #80 UK · 100,651 England #134 UK · 84,217 Amazing #176 UK · 76,254 I doubt he will challenge number 1... lol... ONE song in the top 200 on Spotify. America is a weird market though 1 week you could need 500k plus for number 1 another less than 100k will do :lol: Is a bit weird slashing the price on day 1 though
