It took me about 5 different searches but I eventually found it, so it is on there, just very difficult to find lol

 

Yeah same for me

Cher up to #79 on Amazon & #130 on Apple Music. Looks like top 100 on Apple Music tomorrow at the rate it's climbing!

It took me about 5 different searches but I eventually found it, so it is on there, just very difficult to find lol

 

Today found it straight away , wish I hadn't it makes ladbaby sound fantastic

It's the first result for me when I type in Creator Universe.

 

Does it a lot for me , new releases take ages to find on day one but find straight away on day 2,

I was in Selfridges on Oxford Street today and there was a live quartet performing Christmas songs in the restaurant bit. They did all the classics and then they ended with... DJ Play A Christmas Song! It seems like the general public are really taking to it. Probably too early to say but I wonder if it's on its way to becoming a future Christmas staple?

Juice WRLD x Eminem x Benny Blanco released a few hours ago, it’ll be interesting to see how it does despite the Christmas rush.

Cher hitting a new peak of #42 :wub:

Hmmm on those numbers Stick Season is extremely close to Last Christmas already.

 

I actually this is going to close throughout the week.

Last Christmas has the advantage of physicals this week plus the gap must be a lot wider on Amazon so I don't see Stick Season being a threat unless the label see some sense and push 99p CDs and 59p downloads

Yeah that’s true about the physicals. Interested to see the first mids.

oh very close when applying ACR

 

1 Wham 487K

2 Noah 475K

3 Mariah 464K

4 Harlow 454K

5 Brenda 416K

Can't believe Noah's label are not all over this opportunity. The extra press for an unknown (to the general public) snatching Xmas No.1 out of nowhere would be immense. Just release some 99p CDs, an Olivia duet, reduce the download, do anything and try and make your place in history!

Edited December 17, 20231 yr by gooddelta

Wham back at no1 on Apple (officially) for the first time since Shane passing!

Brenda’s actually on 925k today when you combine it with the Re-recorded Version at #160, only 4K behind Mariah.

 

Also unfortunately saying that it’s close when applying ACR doesn’t mean anything. Noah had comfortably more than half of Wham!’s streams on last week’s Spotify chart but was nowhere near officially

I see 'Needle' is down to being only the 4th highest song from Nicki's album but still apparently the one UK radio stations are pushing!

 

Can't believe Noah's label are not all over this opportunity. The extra press for an unknown (to the general public) snatching Xmas No.1 out of nowhere would be immense. Just release some 99p CDs, an Olivia duet, reduce the download, do anything and try and make your place in history!

 

Didn't someone say they're releasing physicals for it in the new year? I imagine they assumed it wouldn't have a chance for Christmas #1. (Not sure if he has the kind of fanbase to sell a significant number of physical singles anyway though).

Cher up to #79 on Amazon & #130 on Apple Music. Looks like top 100 on Apple Music tomorrow at the rate it's climbing!

DJPACS is up to #68 on Amazon and #97 on Apple Music! :yahoo:
